Its one of those days.
The weather is turning colder. i have a customer complaining about the color they hand picked. And to top it all off my cutter isn't cutting very nice today.
So yes its one of those days.

That sounds rather typical to me. You left out 'the' 47 telemarketers, 'the' tire kickers, 'the' can you make this for less money, UPS forgot to drop off your package, 'the' hafta go to a funeral tomorrow sorry, 'the' can I wait til it's done ? 'the' what's that odd smell in here ?? Ahhh.... paint ?? Ewe, that stinks. Well, you're in a paint shop, ya know. And the list goes on.

yes i am always getting comments on the odors. and how can i work in such an environment. telemarketers and robo calls are just the everyday norm around here.
i am guessing it just is the weather change that has me all bummed out today which makes everything feel worst.
truth be told my shop normally runs very smooth, organized with few crunch deadlines. so i have very little to actually complain about.

I've gotten a kick out of putting a life size cutout of one of my customers behind my front counter. There's three of them actually. All happy and smiling. The UPS guy tried to hand it the signature thing before I walked up front. Scares the crap out of my every morning. Once that order goes out next week I'll be making one just for the store.

Hand cut with hot knife around contour cut graphics. Next time I'll make sure to prep enough to have FireSprint make them. Dropped the ball on this one and had to do them in house.

Sounds like you need a cutout of your UPS guy.
