  1. Any Canadians have experience hiring immigrants?

    How do you know they're illegal? Because they are spanish? 1/2 our crew is Hispanic and everyone of them is an on the books verified W2 employee and getting paid a competitive wage. There are plenty of native born people asking to get paid cash to avoid child support, double dip on...
  2. Customers in production areas

    Oh yeah, touching wet paint or wiping their hands across the nice brand new shiny paint job leaving scratches on it. Never had that happen :rolleyes:
  3. Customers in production areas

    You'd be amazed at how many people we have had walk right into our blast booth with the blaster going or idiots roaming around our paint storage and booths with a cigarette in their mouth. We have signs EVERYWHERE! Total lack of respect. They'll step over chains, move cones, drive around our...
  4. Threaded a VERY small screwhead

    Soldering iron, that is brilliant! They make induction bolt heaters but never wanted to spend the money on one. This trick here should be close enough.

  8. How to explain outsourcing?

    Except you're an assembler, not a manufacturer and doing in house work is within the realm of what a sign shop does. It isn't the norm for Ford to make their own nuts and bolts just like we don't cast our own PVC. Not everyone is OK with using a middle man even if they do not have access to...

    Click bait. What a disappointment
  12. How to explain outsourcing?

    Find out why they are asking so you can address a specific concern. I ask contractors if they have their own crew with actual W2 employees because the ones that don't tend to have crappy quality control, low skill level and don't stand behind their work. It might not always be the case but I'm...
  13. The longer I'm in this business the more I believe that nobody who runs for office should be allowed to have the job.

    Vote against the ones who turn it into political ammo and we might actually see that happen one day.
  14. The longer I'm in this business the more I believe that nobody who runs for office should be allowed to have the job.

    Very true but politicians are exploiting this fact. Winning is all that matters so they pick the people that they can make happy and use every dirty tactic that they have to reel them in. Manipulating truths and facts to create fear in that group so they can present themselves as the savior...
