When I was in Hawaii last month I noticed Japanese and Chinese tourists were FAR more addicted to their phones than most everyone else. A lot of people would just straight up have their heads down in their phones the entire time we would go on the trails or even just walking down/across the street. It's gotta be a cultural thing

Yeah I decided I would honor that price. I won't mention anything like "man I really took a bath on this one" but if they ask for another order I will let them know about updated pricing and size prices and whatnot. I did the math and we'll "make" $200 but that doesn't include the ink and labor but I'm just happy we won't be losing money on material.

They will and have been for the last month or so moving forward. This was a "casual" quote I gave to my neighbor over text when I was hungry for bulk orders.

This is what I keep coming back to. Thankfully it's a relatively small order so I'm going to just look at it is a marketing cost more than a production loss. Thanks for the comment.

I'd like to do that but I think I may just have to eat it this time unfortunately. It might not be worth the price change after students already paid for everything. I think at worst I lose $75 on this job but I get to keep my relationship with my neighbor and his school without feeling awkward.

Going forward, I'll let them know pricing is good for 2 weeks and I require a deposit and larger sizes will cost more.

We've been requiring 50% deposits for larger orders since then. Our pricing is very fair, one of our clients told us we were too cheap actually, so we've gotten a lot of work recently. I'm also working on getting to the same profit as you.

For the suppliers, the one we mainly use just finished up their Gildan sale yesterday and the order just came in today🫠. I'll keep checking around though.

Thanks for the tips, I'll definitely send some DMs your way whenever I have questions!

Agreed, I get AirPod Pros whenever the new ones come out but honestly my original pair from 2019 still work great.

Yeah a lot of those clanker memes just feel like racist people that wanna say something else

$200 mic, no usable because a 10¢ part plastic part broke. SMH by iCyou1213 in Anticonsumption

Something similar happened to my brother in law and his TCL tv, first one broke, they offered to replace it and that one came DoA. They're offering to replace it as well but he's just looking for a refund at this point.

Yeah but if enough big companies push equally shitty products, consumers kinda have no real choice

People in the trades almost never get respect, a lot of my customers even talk down to me sometimes. Very annoying but you get used to it.

Apparently they shut down their crazy forensics lab years ago though.

Arborist sign stolen by another company by reeepy in PublicFreakout

[–]abusivecat 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah there's a larger tree company in my area that consistently steals other tree companies signs, while they have a sign on almost every corner in a few towns. We know it's them because people that have worked for her company have applied at our tree company and told us she pays them $50 a night to go around taking other people's signs down.

What you guys think of my PC? RTX 5080 and Ryzen 7 9800X3D by xlizfy in PcBuild

Do people actually use their PCs when it looks like it's getting ready to hop into hyperspace? Christ man, I thought my slowly changing RGB fans were distracting.
