Remember all those who have served and are serving. :wavingflag:

We've done many site surveys over the years and it seems to be getting more and more in the last few years. We have a set price for this, but these other shops seem to wanna set the cost, instead of me lately. The other shops have budgets which range from $170 for pictures and written...

About 2 weeks ago, a company had scheduled a truck to be lettered in our shop. I told them a check had to be there when the truck was picked up, or I would not release the truck to the driver when he comes to pick it up. Rules are rules and I can't break my own rules................ :noway...

I just received an ad for 'Back to School' sales from one of our vendors. They haven't even finished school, let alone get out and they're already getting ready to go back .........????

We just finished a Police cruiser and all the cops are out on call, so they told me to take it to them. 5 o'clock on a Friday and I'm gonna tool about 58mph on the bypass. No one will pass me. I don't always pick up and deliver Police cars, but I thoroughly enjoy it when I do. The looks I...

We have several vehicles coming in this week, as normal,and with all the rain we're having and forecast to still come, do you still remind your customers to have them washed before they bring them in..... even if it's raining ??

Nearly 150 years ago, Memorial Day— first called Decoration Day— was set aside to decorate the graves of the men who’d recently died in battle. America was still reeling from the Civil War when Gen. John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, issued a proclamation in 1868...

Got an e-mail from a potential customer requesting two new faces and then she explained the copy that was to go on it. The present sign, the company went out of business and will be taking their faces with them, so she needs new ones. She told me they are 24" x 63" and two sides. It's only...

We've had the same fax number for about 35 years. Have it on business cards, brochures, stationery, and just about anything you can think of. We don't use the fax near as much as we used to, but we get customers who only wanna depend on the fax, so we accommodate. Monday, someone was trying...

This place was only about 15 minutes from the shop, but from the time I got there, talked to the people in charge, got their instructions as to where on the canopy the letters go, until I took my last picture, packed up and got paid, it took 2 hours and 15 minutes. Drilled out about 90 holes...

I was reading a thread about being an authorized shop to do signs for a local GM Dealership and while I was reading it, it went funky and when I tried to find it again, it's completely gone. Am I imagining this ?? I know a thread from the other day has been deleted, about the crazy spamming...

Having trouble finding a piece of rigid .060 non-glare to go over top of some digital printing. They only want a single piece and they don't want matte vinyl lam. The piece underneath will change from time to time. It's only for protection against vandalism. :thankyou: Gino Forgot to...

Have a customer requesting quite a few windows and is calling for 80/20 perf. I can't find anything less than 70/30, other than a banner kinda material which isn't good for outdoor installations. Any idea of what they might be referring to ?? All they said is, that's what they used at a store...

This is not meant towards anyone in particular, but so many people who do things for the sake of doing them, without thinking through what the end results will be money-wise or from a professional standpoint. If one doesn't have the means of doing it, then why offer a poor substitute ?? I...

I tried quite a few of my weird and ugly fonts and no match. Anyone have an idea ??

When some member(s) asks a question, he/she gets answers that are most helpful while other people ask questions, they get railroaded ?? I don't believe there is any sign etiquette which needs to be learned as to how to ask a question, but I do think there are certain conditions that might enter...

After all these years, I'm gonna hafta haul my butt outta here..... and in a big hurry, as we are suddenly relocating our residence and selling our business. Last night, my wife was informed she hit a really big jackpot. We need to make arrangements to do all of this in the next few weeks and...

American Sign Letters Their ad looks identical to Gemini. In fact, it looks just like it down to the wording and pictures. The ad just came in today and I hafta place an order for some letters anyway. Just wondering if anyone has ever dealt with them. :thankyou: Gino

This just started today. I cannot use my mouse wheel for going up and down the pages, anywhere. I hafta use the elevator slide at the far right. Is this gonna become the new norm ?? Has someone monkeyed around with some settings ?? :thankyou:

if this happens to others ?? This is one of the first times this has happened to me in about 44 years. At our shop, most of our time is precious, so scheduling things takes priority most of the time. However, I try to leave a window of 4 to 6 hours a week for mishaps or emergencies. With...
