Well, today was the last day of training with a few guys who showed us how to run all of the equipment in the shop. One of the guys was actually from the SignsNow headquarters, who actually stayed the whole week to set up alot of the shop for us regarding how it should look and all, cause it's actually a franchise. Today was probably the most productive day so far. It almost felt like a work day today! lol The week has been very slow cause there hasn't been much to print, but now that the printers are up and running, we're starting to print more, mostly things for the shop to get it ready for business next week. Next week I'm sure we'll be printing more samples for the store on different substrates, or materials, which will finally be nice cause I'll actually be busy being productive. I hate standing around wondering what to do, although I just try to find things to do when that happens.
One thing I'm looking forward to is learning how to do a vehicle wrap. We're going to be offering that, so the owner told me he's probably going to send me to a class to learn how to do that, since the rest of them need to be in the office. It's all hands on training and supposed to be a good class, so yeah, I'm looking forward to that, especially since I have zero experience doing that kind of stuff! Then I suppose I'll be showing everyone back at the shop how to do that as well...maybe, I'm not sure, maybe I'll be the one doing all that stuff. We'll see I guess.
Man I'm tired. I used to stay up so late just a week ago, but now I'm just ready to lay down. I feel like I'm thinking too hard about what to write! lol I may go to a wedding tomorrow night but it's kind of up in the air. I'm definitely going to need to work on finishing up a few designs this weekend, especially so I can work more on Onoma and get things moving a little more. My tees are STILL in the process of getting, well, reprinted, cause the sizes were too big for the guy to print. He has a small setup in his garage to silkscreen shirts, but I'm thinking this might not have been a good idea cause it's taking twice as long as I thought. I'm even thinking of just taking my shirts to an actual shop to get them made. I think this may be too much for him timewise, since he already works and is involved with a band, so, again, we'll see. I'm trying hard to be patient and work with him.
Well, I'm tired. More later. nite. =)
