Actually, one of the few things I'll miss about my last job....

We used to print all the seed packets for the different national companies (you know, those little envelopes for sale at Wally World for 99-cents come spring?)

Well, every spring, the different manufacturer's would send a couple displays to be setup at the office... The whole company knew when the displays came in, and the sales manager would set them up one evening before going home (bene of working seconds!)... sucker was cleaned out inside of 24-hours.

My yard never looked better.

Don't get shit here. In fact most of the time apparentl I am invisible. More than a few clients come in and make a point of thanking the receptionist (who rang them to tell them their jobs ready) and then the sales rep (who just charges them for the work) wishes a nice day and walks out while I am standing right there. Assholes ring me up right away when theres a problem though.

Had a customer that used to bring in the worst film/color copy jobs - usually in Corel of course. I joked for along time that she "owed me a beer" for doing those tiny jobs. One day she asks for some help getting a box out of her car, figured it was some cheap paper for another crappy copy job.
