I agree, payroll should have no say in the matter. The boss is the one who has to sign the big check to them first then they just disperse it. I'm told we're to have a meeting before COB today as the Governor mandated shut down takes effect midnight tonight.

I agree about "burnout". Our company handles anything from custom signs to 3rd party graphics. People buy a "stripe kit" online and just want installed etc. Or we get an out of state company send us crap files for us to create and install a wrap. Like the OP, I too, get tired of some clients...

Wouldn't mind the time off as long as it's paid or allow me to use some of my paid vacation

So, our payroll company says we are nonessential. The way I read it we are. We're providing signs for military pertaining to Covid-19. Also providing signs for county sheriff, various city police, food agencies, and local hospitals. We are an LLC. 1 owner and 8 employees. What say you?

Create a contour of each color, separate then send to back. Still need to go in and mod the nodes in different areas

I do believe I mentioned this in my post. All I can do is suggest to the boss that we find a metallic red. Otherwise if he doesn't want to go that route they'll have to live with the red we did already. And before anyone criticizes this design let me tell you the customer sent us a png of an...

I say it's not possible but is there a way to achieve a brighter red when printing to metallic vinyl. Using an HP360 with no white Ink Increasing the number of passes will produce a "richer" red but will also eliminate the effect of the metallic look. We did some vehicle graphics on a couple of...

That's why my skin is thicker than a rhino's. I tend to move on when things get heated.

I use a Corel Macro to drop in the dimension lines. Select my sign blank then hit the letter d and bam.

Personally I wouldn't recommend eps. PDF is usually the safest bet.

This is exactly why the US military writes the date as 4 Mar 1965. Because someone may misinterpret 3/4/65 st April 3? Always best to make it "dummy proof". 24x18, 18x24? Still leaves out the most important information as to eliminate any confusion. Portrait or Landscape OR 18h x 24w

Health is a delicate balance. Mental health is an intrical part of the equation. 70% hard work 20% mental 10% diet (not a picky eater) I eat whatever I like but I make sure I work hard. I'm not talking about your job. I'm talking about raising a family and ensuring a proper home. As I walk down...

Part 2. AlgerianBasD with a little "squeeze"

I don't like 24 x 18. It's 1 size and 1 orientation. 18 x 24 "Portrait" or "Landscape". I prefer to see/hear a numerical order so even if you tell me 24 x 18 I'm going to ask "Portrait or Landscape"? When I type the name of my files it's 18 x 24 blah blah blah, never will I type it the other...

I just recieved a powerpoint file to revise and print. Powerpoint is the most common program used by the military. It's the only one authorized throughout. Anyway the file comes with 4 slides and a request to combine a 1 slide with 2 others. All of which I don't have a problem with. What I do...

Thanks all. I'll continue to pressure her to look elsewhere. But too much pressure and I'll be on the couch. lol

Freedom to choose would be if you had no bills to pay, otherwise you're stuck. My wife does look every day for something else but... Her sister, on the other hand, is too scared to go that route. She lacks the confidence and is also pushing retirement age. She actually interviewed for the GM...

Has anyone come across some blatant salary misalignment? Not necessarily in the sign industry but just in general. This is brought on by my son's recent raise and all the stories I here from my wife and her "crew". My wife has a Master's degree in accounting and has been working with a...
