  1. How to talk to unhappy employee’s.

    Gino, that's a good point....glad you brought that up. I'm thinking of my last job where it was all straight women and there would be some cat fights in which our straight female supervisor would talk to each of us privately. One of my longest male customers said some VERY inappropriate...
  2. How to talk to unhappy employee’s.

    A bit late to this party but, as a past employee, just pull the person aside and ask them in a private, comfortable setting. Some people are private about personal issues, and some hesitant to talk about work issues. Even if you don't get a definate answer, be sure to tell him he is valued and...
  3. What would you pay? What employees are worth.

    You're brilliance cracks me up :roflmao: I thought this type of trickery was something only women used! It's the only way I've been able to get my kids dad to agree with me for the last 14 years. Hmmm...no wonder he tells everyone I'm such a moron LOL The smoke adds a special kinda touch...
  4. What would you pay? What employees are worth.

    Some of these zombies defy gravity...it's amazing to me how they can strike a pose for so long in such odd positions...
  5. What would you pay? What employees are worth.

    I'm too scared of my Dad yelling at me if I don't work hard. 48 and still scared LOL
  6. What would you pay? What employees are worth.

    Nothing I hated more than some old bag who refused to teach me how to do something just so she could be "top dog". I remember at "Karen's" retirement party...I overheard her telling people about how I didn't know how to use an adding machine correctly. I couldn't add stuff up then go back for...
  7. Paper Work Orders

    Your three posts make perfect sense. The naming convention is the most important part to successfully and QUICKLY using the software. The solve the square foot/Linear issue I have everything listed in square feet but the products that I often use as linear the have an L in front of them. IJ35...
  8. Niagara Falls

    We also have done a few short trips. Chicago is definitely the favorite so far. We did the museums, the bean and Mike Ditkas Steak House, best meatloaf I ever had in my life! St. Louis was fun too. The Arch isn't worth the money. The City Museum was AWESOME!!!! Took in a baseball game and the...
  9. Outdoor literature/sign stand

    Very nice! Looks like the 16" will work very well!
  10. Niagara Falls

    I should have went to Niagara Falls instead of the Hoover Dam. The Falls looks spectacular, hope you post some photos when you return!
  11. Sign design and wayfinding business owner with experience in fabrication

    Welcome! You're knowledge sounds like it could be very useful to many on here! People often post logo or sign designs looking for help, there's quite a few extremely talented and knowledgeable members here. Some very in-depth conversations around design, copyright laws, fonts, etc. Some of...
  12. Challenges and being grateful

    I have no idea what you people are talking about.
  13. Print calculator for wide format & Flatbed.

    In the short term...can you use an IF statement in added columns? If quantity in XXX is 1, then apply no discount. If quantity is 5-10 then apply 15% discount, etc. This is what mine looks like. I stopped using it a while ago when I started using SignTracker. It's all drop-downs. It works...

    Gino has fired Gnubler several times already. She's on her third business start-up since joining this forum
  15. Challenges and being grateful

    I'm glad I can't get fired for being a lazy a$$ some days LOL
  16. Print calculator for wide format & Flatbed.

    Here's what I can do in SignTracker $50mo I think, best money I spend each month. I have an Excel spreadsheet that I update and upload into SignTracker with all my pricing. FREE Option: What about having someone make pivot tables for you in Excel? They are pretty easy. Maybe an Access file? -...
  17. Where to find these plaques...? Oak?

    Ugh cutting boards...we had at least 5 of them from school - one + from each kid. They put a bunch of pieces together, glue them and cut them (or whatever). Half of them fell apart, the other have little slivers of wood coming off like Gino said. A couple held up well. I avoid wood cutting...
  18. Challenges and being grateful

    I think Seal was drunk or Siri was drunk...here's my best guess... I own South Water signs and have paid every vender that we have worked with. For two years, a domestic company in Cook County IL, fell for the lies of my ex-wife along with her attorney. "Kevin" was able to create this imposter...
  19. Where to find these plaques...? Oak?

    Yes Matty, we have a woods class at the high school. I have several end tables, cutting boards and random wood things laying around from my boys to prove it LOL I got my BF's retired brother to do it. He has a shop set up in his basement and it will only take him a few minutes.
