  1. OK then.......

    High road? If your ethos is already in the gutter. So with your vast understanding of the laws of supply & demand, and worldwide economics, please explain to us exactly how one leader of one powerful country can control the entire world economy. So, if your grandkids are ugly, is it your...
  2. OK then.......

    If this is considered science, i see why some don't trust the science. It would put this under sociology. I'm with Geno here. I don't car how, but maybe WHY?
  3. OK then.......

    So did the doctor use 'Butt Plug Condensed' as the font when he wrote out the report? As a 54 year old signmaker, I frown upon rectal insertion of any kind, I even hate it when my finger breaks thru three layers of toilet paper. Well. except for a colonoscopy, that I highly recommend.
  4. Any ideas on a help wanted ad?

    Tape measures? Both my daughters got tape measures for like their fifth birthday. I just figured a boy couldn't lie to a girl who how knew long something really was.

    Quality, Service or Price; Pick two.
  6. What is your quoting procedure?

    Stacey, you got your high pressure carnival barkers and then you have professional sales people. It's more about listening than talking. The more info you have from a potential customer, the better to suit their needs.
  7. Wrapping a powder coated electrical transformer

    A little heat and a rivet brush should push into the dimples fairly easy. Someone wrapped a similar box out front of a big church in my area and it serves as a monument sign for the parking lot. It looks awesome. The bottom looks like a brick base and I don't think anyone even notices that it's...
  8. Mesh banners tearing in wind

    Agree with what you said, except for bungees. Bungees, never, ever.
  9. Mesh banners tearing in wind

    I love satire. I have never, ever, never, freakin never ever used a bungee to install anything.
  10. Mesh banners tearing in wind

    That's why I get all the fence sign work for local schools that I can handle. Grommets , damn it. Twice the grommets, half the load. Four times the grommets, a quarter the load, wind that is. I use 12 grommets in any 4'x4' substrate, cora or banners for fence work. For Aluminum & ACM, I have...
  11. Discussion Sweet 16

    The local Liquor Store had a Connor MacGregor that freaked me out, but the one of the Rock seems a little more friendly.
  12. Here's an absolute new one for me, after 51 years.............................................

    Die Cut means cut with a "punch" & a "die". It comes from the machining industry. My father was a machinist and tool & die man by trade. If you ever set grommets by hand, you've used a punch & die. Punch does the cutting & Die provides the anvil. Simple.

    Back to the OP, I wouldn't have given the money back. Sue me tweaker, I dare you.

    Send lawyers, guns and money.
  15. Customer put my road sign on a 40' pole

    Stacey, years, diligence, and love of the trade have granted me a smidgen of wisdom. At my station, I am professional, I know what I'm doing. I'm not saying this to pump my chest. From that posts she share, I believe you could become a professional. Please adapt this mindset: I am an expert. I...
  16. One up on Gino

    Run that crap through the CSI computer and you still got crap. Move on, dudes on oxies.
  17. Odd question for time & material

    As far as a job I would want to even fool with, no way. Cut them slack because they can't spell, no. But, country club connections can be a very good source of new business. Be firm, be fair, show them you are a professional and they will respect you, hence pay your price.
  18. This worries me more than Russia...

    MIT says 2040-2060. I starting to just hope we make it that far.
