My Friday has started out...well...you tell me

sounds like veryone of these issues could have been dealt with much easier....

sounds like you should have stayed home today....

 

Dang man, I hope it gets better!

 

i doubt you spoke to your customers like that, i think you embellished just a little

 

Today is an awful day for us too.

I can't wait for 4:30.

 

So far so good over here in Washington. But it is only 9:30 yet. Anyway, sorry about the good run of bad luck so far - hopefully it'll get better throughout the day.

Must be somethings in the air!!!!!

 

Rookie. Lol....J/K

 

• Got in this morning and Jeremy had the Roland taken apart and was fixing it. An hour later it was back up and running.
• One guy called in at 4:30 yesterday afternoon and said he wouldn't be in today.
• The flatbed is running almost 14 hour days and we can't keep up.
• The Ice cream truck is still here..... she keeps changing her frickin' mind.....
• Larry has to take next week off.... unexpectedly.
• Orders are pouring in and I'm loosing manpower.
• I can't have a drop of whiskey until 7pm tonight.
• Found out last night I'm quitting whiskey for 2 weeks starting Monday... possibly 4 weeks. All depends on Tony..... my new friend
  
• I just gotta stop there. It can't get no worse than NO WHISKEY

I'm grateful two of my very good friends are getting married tonight! I'm looking forward to throwin' on the party pants and blowing off a little steam with some delicious Captain & Coke!

 

just had a guy completely rage at me because i won't wrap his jetskis. He wants me to wrap under and inside of them. I'm explaining it will fail. And we will do it if he signs that we're not responsible we'll do it no problem. Said he's going to tell his boss ( a guy we wrapped 6 vans for who absolutely love them) how bad we treated him because we couldn't do what he wanted... what a riot.

Guy just left who also completely raged because i wouldn't cut him a massive infinity logo to put on the side of his car. He said no one follows copyright laws, and why should I.


got a RV and 2 cars to finish, 1 car. A ton of table work (banners, signs, blah blah)
for today because monday we have another train...HAHASHIPSAFJASLDHFAS;JDFHASDJKFASDF

 

Maybe the Corporate BS I'm putting up with will make you feel better.

We have one employee who has been complaining that the smells of my print room are making her sick. She works in IT so she has been working from home when this happens. The head IT guy hired someone to come in and do some environmental testing for VOCs in my area. The technician who came out tells me he just gets a reading of levels and can't tell me whats exactly is in the air. Before we even get a report back IT guy and HR bully my department into moving all of our media to offsite storage 5 miles away. I usually have 3 pallets of media on hand and now I'm told I can only have the media I need onsite. At this point my production is halted and my orders are backed up, and the woman left earlier today again - with only 3 rolls of media onsite.

Bonus: IT guy tells me he has friend in Vegas who is in the business that he talked to and learned more than I know in my 10 years of large format. I asked IT guy what shop and he tells me "MGM Grand, 18th floor". Can you imagine even the most stupid person you've ever met deciding to set up an operation on an 18th floor while storing all media off site?! Apparently these MGM printers have 6 Rolands. I hate people who lie.

The positive is that I'm leaving early, making lots of trips to the hardware store, and generally doing nothing. I'm about to go drive around the foothills and grab a few beers before coming back for an hour and leaving at 4. I also get to work all weekend while the building is empty. I'm actually really a dedicated hard working employee and keep myself busy all day, but I have no work that can be done right now.

 

I have to say I'm having a great Friday. I took the morning off to cut the grass -beautiful weather, sunny with a breeze, Just popped in to check on Jobs printing. Did a little design work, did a little invoicing and tonight dinner and a movie.

I had the day you were all supposed to have.

 

well, i got to fire an employee today who i found out was even lazier than i thought...you ever notice your regular customers wont tell you how bad your employees are till after they leave...jeez i wish i would have known i would have kicked him to the curb weeks ago... anyways, now im here by myself.

tomorrow will be better im going shooting

My house is stockpiled right now for our house warming party tomorrow. You're more than welcome to swing by and jug a couple bottles before Monday.

But I don't carry Bushmills. Jameson is the only whiskey that comes through my door.

 

Thanks, but I don't think I cam make it up that way. The Goddess has the whole day planned.... actually she has tonight, all day and night tomorrow and Sunday completely planned out. I'm building an arbor tonight with the help of Bushmills. Tomorrow, all kinds of chores and do-dads I gotta get done with Bushmills stating around 2 in the afternoon. I'll have to stop though to go dancing tomorrow night..... if we go..... Sunday is all kinds of things around the house again with the Bushmill pouring starting around 2 or 2:30.

Monday then starts a two week trial of no booze and if I can do it.... I'm adding another two weeks to it.

Anyway, thanks for the offer. Hope you have a great time !!
