1 "While I got you here......."
2 "Do you do body work. too?"
3 "If you give me a discount, I can help get you more work."

Resulting quotes by me...
1 "Sure, why not?"
2 "Nope, I just make 'em pretty."
3 "I've got plenty of work right now, but thanks for the offer"

What my mind is usually saying......
1 "Just once I'd like to get home early!"
2 "No way am I doing all that sanding!"
3 "right...make money form the next guy...congratulations...your the next guy"

That looks like anybody can do it.

Geeze, for $35 I thought it would have been a whole lot fancier than this.

You don't care what you're doing as long as you're working, huh.

WHAT?! Why, I've never paid more than $60 for a sign in my life.

Oh, no. I don't pay tax on signs.

You can't use that little book on me - that's Price Fixing! (Well, I can always charge more. A LOT more...)

What's your best price? (For me or for you?)

What's a sign like that worth? (A million dollars. I'm going to let you have it for $450)

$200 huh? Can't you do it for 100? (Sure. Or I can REALLY f**k it up for 50)

Sign related:
there are too many to count, but one I have not seen here that has happened to me countless times when I traveled on weekends and hand lettered valances in a chain of convenience stores, while teetering high up on a ladder, brush in hand, sign kit on the floor, customer steps up and stops me cold:
"Where is the dogfood? (milk, soup, bandaids????)"

"I don't work here, it just looks like it!"

While lettering a window:

"Are you a signpainter?"

That's not what Bob had in mind with his original post, but it's the only thing I could think of.

From an ex employer; "I don't mind you killing time, as long as you work it to death"

Watching someone clean an obviously worn out peice of sandpaper; "dollar waitin on a dime"

You look after your pennys, your dollars will take care of themselves.

Two wrongs don't make a right, but three lefts do.
