...after dealing with the public for so many years.
Trying to sell some dimensional letters to a member of the medical profession. Presently that person has constructed a monstrosity of a sign. I believe he may save about $350 due to doing most of the work. The result will be a very heavy, sub-standard, half-hidden sign without eye appeal. If the construction time were invested in the practice of the specific medical field, a profit of several thousand dollars might be expected.
How can I keep a straight face?

It's real tempting to poke fun at this guy. We've all seen it happen. For some unimaginable reason an educated person who is rational in all other areas of life gets a psychotic notion to meddle wherin he aughtn't. (like those words?)

Seriously though Santo, if this guy wants to be involved, do him the courtesy of being honest with him. For only $50 you could provide him with a materials and cut list of the proper way to build the structure efficiently. Hell, even sell him the materials if he's so inclined. It beats having him build some monstrosity. Then put your letters on it and be done. He'll be proud.

You're right Joe. I was a little to late to offer that service. The structure was already built. I'm trying to provide the letters and few suggestions. No matter what I think, the sign will be erected as built by the customer. I'm hoping to provide some guidence and make a few dollars. I really enjoy your website and it's instructional pages. Thanks
