Some of the local machine shops that I do welding for on the side don't seem to understand the idea behind that. They think I should jump like hell to work my *** off for them for $20/hr...when I can work an hr of overtime at my regular job, no big pressure or difficult ----, and make more. I've learned that, if they want me to give them an hourly rate, I reply something like this:

"Do you want the price that makes me not very eager to come in here, or the price that makes me come in with a smile?" They typicaly begin to understand when it's put to them that way.

Welding jobs are everywhere, but it is difficult to get into the good jobs. If you have a skill level that's good enough, you can eventually get something good...but it takes time.

Thanks Josh and Steve. This thread had me laughing almost as much as when the stealth bomber attacked the Hotrex battle ship.

I'm having a hard time figuring out what to be jealous of, but the battleship vs. the stealth bomber was one of my better pieces, and I'll leave it at that. Over and out.

i just think its funny how 3 pics of me welding turns into 85 posts of steve trying to belittle me.

itd a daily occurance, and i think its pretty funny when people who normally find steve amusing even decide hes just being a troll ******.

BD. you suck. i have yet to see you fab anything or post any ****. sorry dude. buke does more than you do.

on the flip side, looks like typical customers to me josh. ------s dont understand. USPS does offer track and confirm, not any type of tracking though. even then, the ---- doesnt work and is a few days behind when it does work. like you ship something today and it doesnt show that you shipped it for a few days after it was shipped. by then its reached its destination.
I personally think its pretty sweet that you've come this far with the "business", and honestly am jelious and wish I could weld.

Do what I do...dont accecpt anyones money until the product is ready to ship. And if the faggets still bitch send their money back to them and tell them to find a mani elsewhere....and if they wanna take the wait to wait on a mani...then they can wait. ---- 'em.
