Yesterday I did 10 trucks at a truck dealership in the AM. All vinyl, one color, very simple. I was moving like a little whril-wind. Then While I was there on of the other salespersones asked if I could do the vinyl lettering for another 7 trucks while I was there. he already had the lettering in a box. I said "no problem" So after lunch, I did those too. By that time it stated to rain and I had to do the trucks one, at, a, time, in the shop. I got home about 7pm and hit the couch then I slid over to the bed and didn't wake up till 7:30 am. Plus I am out of invoices, I'm gonna have to search my old invoices for some un-used ones to send them out for the work I did. Thank goodness I didn't plan do any real work this morrning or I'd be out there in my jammies,,,like I am right now.

I feel for you. I had 131 windshields to do last week at a Chevy store. Came home and took an early path to the bunk! My record is 14 Wendys in one day ($6300), back in 07. Would love to go for that one again. I always love it when I am that darn tired and sassy.

Please tell us your secret, please, please........How did you get to accomplish such a feat?.......C'mon give me a break!
I have been painting signs for over 40 years and splash for over 20 of those 40 years and I have never heard of something like that......For me, it would be physically impossible, for one man, to do 14 Wendy stores......simply because of their locations. Of course, it would, probably, be possible if they were located one next to the other....on the same city block. Otherwise, I still cannot see how you managed to do it.....What about your set up time at each store?....Unloading from the truck, ( I will skip the layout and give you that.....assuming you won't need it at each location, because of its probable simplicity so that you can go straight to rolling the paint on the glass, without layout. )....What about picking up and loading the truck after completion of the task, at each store?....What about the driving distance between each store ?....Parking and unloading, again........14 times ?
I need to know how you did this.......It's driving me nuts.......Please share your wisdom with us.

I think you deserve a vacation now!! Or at least a good dinner out and some good vino or other cool beverage of your choice.
I have 100 coroplast signs to make next week. Simple 1 color. Nice mindless work for a day. Kind of nice to just listen to NPR or good tunes. Although, I should have had these screen printed!!! duh! Next time.
