Just 4 months ago I never even thought about a career in sign making, and as of 3 days ago I am now managing a sign shop. I moved here 4 months ago, the job I had lined up (as a masonry laborer) fell through. So I got a job here at a sign shop. Then my manager (just two of us here full time) found another job. Since this is a small town of just 5000 I am more qualified then anyone else the owners of the company could find. I know I still have plenty to learn.
We mostly deal with highway and construction signs. They pay very well, but man they are a creativity killer. We also do some commercial and residential signs, along with billboards and car graphics. Right now we just have a vinyl cutter, but it takes care of everything we need.
So far I am quite impressed with this community here (butt-kissing alert!). Seems like a nice group of individuals, quite helpful and friendly. I look forward to wasting my slow times here.
P.S. Why isn't Brush Script one of the fonts we can select for these forums. That's my favorite!![Biggrin :biggrin: :biggrin:](https://signs101.com/images/smilies-orig/standard/biggrin.png)
