  1. Shooting at sign shop - 5 dead

    I've never understood the desire to kill someone out of rage. Makes no sense to me.. Defense of myself and my family and friends is another story. This is a perfect examply of why people should be trained with firearms and carrying concealed, especially business owners.
  2. 3M Selling Wraps?

    Hmm.. nobody name Joe or MCG on 3m Preferred site..

  5. New to Signs 101 from AZ

    Welcome from the west side!
  6. WTF: Stupid Application Questions...

    eh, just write that in the space then. I couldn't work for a college or a large corporation because of all the PC BS..
  7. WTF: Stupid Application Questions...

    I'd stop right there.. that job is not for me.
  8. Seen this before?

    Looks like another bad roll.. this however, looks like a production issue, where the first problem looks like it happened after rolling onto the core. You can also get veritical banding on some printers due to dirty bearings or rails, but I don't think that's what this is. Especially if...
  9. 970RA wrap help...

    You should work the vinyl into the concave areas, instead of heating & pushing it in. I'd advise you to take a wrap class to learn the basics.
  10. Sole Proprietorship vs. C Corporation vs. S Corporation vs. LLC?

    It's basically a matter of whose lawyers are better. However, if you are operating as a sole prop, even the weakest of lawyers will make you pay if your company has liability in a matter. Better to do everything possible to protect yourself and your assets. Think about this: Many large...
  11. interesting "how to get paid" topic

    I understand what you're saying about breaking principles by being deceiving, but once you've screwed me over, I don't owe you any consideration. Respect is earned.
  12. Sole Proprietorship vs. C Corporation vs. S Corporation vs. LLC?

    I was referring to the one man show angle, because if you are the one who is negligent, and you own the corporation, you are liable from two angles. If an employee is negligent, but you as the owner had no knowledge, there is some protection. The same would apply if you had a thousand...
  13. interesting "how to get paid" topic

    They never would have seen a dime if they had approached the situation that way. I understand that what they did technically broke the law, but that is a stupid law. The client company could have sued and won. The sign co could have sued and won. The end result would have netted the same.
  14. Sole Proprietorship vs. C Corporation vs. S Corporation vs. LLC?

    This is incorrect.. Liability is a tricky thing. If you're a one man show, it really doesn't matter what entity you are; you're probably going to be on the hook no matter what. Also in terms of negligence, entities offer little protection (let's say you have worn out tires on your truck and...
  15. Sole Proprietorship vs. C Corporation vs. S Corporation vs. LLC?

    We are an S Corp. It's the only way to go: Sole prop is nothing more than a business license. You and all of your assets (including personal) are on the hook if something goes wrong. This includes litigation and creditor protection. All profit is taxed as ordinary income. An LLC can...
  16. interesting "how to get paid" topic

    The sign co showed the principle of "pay me the money you owe me". No problem there. I've leant money to friends, family, and extended customers credit when I probably shouldn't have. Don't have the money to pay? No problem.. pay me when you can. There is a problem, however, if you have...
  17. Screw you 3M.

    I just want to make something very clear here. The installers that are participating in the 3M Original Wraps program are not necessarily "3M Certified". 3M Certified is a term reserved exclusively for company's that have passed the United Application Standards Group's (UASG) testing and...
  18. Selling our flatbed cutter - looking at new Zund or kongsberg

    Beautiful. Our Zund is hard at work right now, cutting boards coming off of both flatbeds as we speak. :)
  19. How much wrap work do you do?

    I'd be all for a special survey, especially if people would actually respond. I know how much this program effects us and how we feel about it. That's all I will say openly about the issue.
