Got a call from a local supermarket about a swarm in a tree in their parking lot. I told the manager I didn't charge for swarm removals. When I arrived, they had blocked off the area around the tree with shopping carts and colored plastic crime scene type tape. 
The swarm was no bigger than a softball. After I trimmed the branch and hived the swarm, I went to talk to the manager while waiting for the scouts to join the hive. She noted the swarm seemed small, and I told her I would have to feed them to really get them going. She asked what they ate and I said sugar. She gave me 150lbs of sugar to feed her bees
