told a supplier to gfy this morning!!!!

[Mosh]

Buy a shear and cut it your own. No one to blame but yourself when it is wrong.

Frank Fellars - We used to make fun of his cowboy hat, so one time as a joke I asked to talk to him while placing an order. They put him on the phone. He told me if I was ever in the area he would buy me lunch.

 

[Dice]

I agree, talk to the owner, I would be pissed if one of my employees treated a customer that way.

This is America, we use Inches, tell them to get used to it.

I'm also getting really tired of Rude Employees dealing with other companies. My employees would never treat anyone the way some of these people treat others. Have some pride in your job. If not your job have pride in yourself. I think I'm going to go off on the next person that's rude to me, when I've been nothing but nice. (I'm always nice, even to the rude ones)

Post Office and Tax Office here I come!

RAGE! It's whats for dinner!

well technically it is north america, but they use the metric system up the in canuckville

mosh, don't you have a sign to make?

 

[Mosh]

get bent dude!!!

We have a shear and it works out great to not have to rely on others to get stuff cut right. Plus we stock 20-30 4x8 sheets of aluminum so we get a great price on it that way. Buying full sheets in bulk and cutting them yourself will save alot of time, money and headaches.

I used to deal with them 4 -5 years back and I just stop they are a bunch of nitwits and overpriced and 90% of there staff dont know what therre talking about. and 95 % of there staff I cant understand since they have huge accents.

there illuminated signs are way overpriced to. they always shipped things to me with the weirdest shippers.

Proveer are the best for substrates.friendly staff

well we are supposed to be using the metric system but no one does so we have to work it both ways. I have to admit though. Metric is far easier to work with and way more accurate, but alas I am an imperial guy and work better with inches and feet. So anyways the reason that the supplier runs both systems is that govt road signs are all metric so you get a sign like 60 cm x 45 cm and that is 23.62 x 17.71. If you order a 18 x 24 and they are not on the ball you can wind up with the metric and nothing fits.

mosh, don't you have a sign to make?

[CanuckSigns]

LOL @ the shippers, we always know when the shipment is from YMS, it shows up in a rusty 1985 dodge caravan with a magnet sign stuck to the 2 sq. ft. of non-rust

[gabagoo]

I have never had them ship me anything. They make sucha big fuss about deliveries. I either go get it myself or hire my own courier

 

[d fleming]

Wife thought I was nuts when I bought an old friends' shear from his estate after he passed. I use it all the time plus I get to remember my friend every time I use it. He was one hell of a sign man.
Here's to ya Woody

Welcome to the Moshpit...again.

 

[gabagoo]

Yet another thread ruined by the Mosh Pit....

Gabagoo: Doesn't ND carry blanks around there? We usually order from them (in Winnipeg) w/o problems, however for higher quantities we get a sheet metal place to cut them/round corners. Muuuuuch cheaper. You might wanna consider that too next time.

I called them next but as usual no stock. I then called East West aka Proveer and no prob they had them and they are cheaper than YMS!!!!
oh and because the order is over $100.00 free delivery. Go stuff that in your hat YMS!!! yeeehawww

GFY....doesn't that mean Good For You?

So we can use it in a sentence like "Mosh, so you are printing thousands of signs for Home Depot? Well, Good For You!"

just askin, some of these abbreviations R 2 confusing!

Gabagoo, try EM plastics next time. They tend to stock a lot of pre-cut sign blanks, or will cut them to size for you. At least the Edmonton branch does.
