    The good 'ole "I can get it cheaper somewhere else". Thank them for the opportunity to bid the job and let them go.
  2. It's Crooked

    My favorite is, during the install the customer keeps saying how great it looks and it's just what/where they wanted, looks perfect, good job, thanks for everything. Then as soon as the installers walk out the door the customer is on the phone complaining that it's in the wrong spot, too...

  8. Printing UV Curable White Ink

    When we put in our new Acuity a few years ago it was CMYK W and Varnish. Sometimes it took us an hour to get the white head firing right, it was a PITA. We then removed the varnish and added white, as soon as we did that, crazy as it sounds we usually only have to do one head cleaning before...

  15. Income Inequality

    We now live in a world of instant gratification. I want it now and if I don't get it, it's societies fault. No one want to work hard to work their way up. Fast food used to be an entry level workforce position, part time for high school kids. Now people think a fast food wage should support...
  16. No, your sign isn't done yet.

    My favorite is the customer who needs it now, and as soon as it's approved and we hit the print button they call back with changes. When you tell them it's already being produced they get mad that you got it done so fast.
  17. How anal are you.......... ??

  18. Anyone having a problem with bad customers bringing up race/racism?

    Not race related, but I once had a customer almost punch me because I told him we weren't going to alter the Real Estate logo for his car. He was just an agent and I told him we couldn't alter the company logo without approval from corporate.
  19. Sorry State of "Today".

    I'm that cancer dad. 4 years ago my son finished treatment and 4 years ago I realized that busting my hump 50-55 a week was not how I should be treating my family regardless of the monetary return. I don't want to trade places because it made me a better person, however, I wouldn't wish it on...
