MEGATHREAD Signing Tips, Tricks and Quips (along with howls of despair)

Do you want to build some shippers?
Come on I can't delay
Gotta get them on the floor
So I can get out the door
Before I go INSANE
I used to be your buddy
But now I'm not
Just get out of My Singing Area and don't ask why
Do you want to build some shippers?
It has to be done today

All the basic shippers have converted to using the metal bars vs. the sliding clip.. <3 <3


it was a beautiful, easy day.

Any one getting 40 hours the week of your back to school set? Since the hours have been cut in half, I'm wondering how everyone is doing.

I've got one day of pricing and one half Plano half signing this week. Then forty next week. I've got two days off help next week potentially.

Three and a half shippers for softlines built already in the couple hours extra I've had after setting pogs.

Signing adjacency hours are 12 this week and 22 next week and that's all they are giving me. I built all the soft lines shippers one day last week and all the shelf bins yesterday. Today ill try and finish the floor bins.

Work hard and this is how you are treated.

you should have showed them the hours on monthly signing update. my TL split 70hrs for 2weeks. 35 this week and 35 on the week of back to school.

Story of my life

there are 89 MISSING SIGNS IN COSMETICS I'M NOT HAPPY

cosmetics had major revisions a week or so ago. Many sign kits arrived late.

Do you have the POG number? Usually when I can't find the sign number, I do it by process of elimination of what's in the POG line listing for that section.

Also, after every cosmetics set (or revision), I keep the POGs because if something goes missing, I can easily look it up, because online POG is a PITA for finding the sign numbers.

Omg totally forgot about this. Can't promise to remember tomorrow either, I'm pricing.

what to do with leftover signing

 

[unknown]

Has anyone tried to order 18" double hook rods lately? We ordered them and got an email back that said they were no longer available. Does anyone else have a lot of 18" rods break all the time; even when you are just opening them?

Are you talking about the one-up ceiling clip extenders? If so, the newer ones seem more brittle than earlier versions.

I have a whole bunch stashed in the back.

The problem I have is that the for the on-up biclops pole, the orange parts are also waaaay more brittle.

Fuck me. I've got to order a new orange pole topper. Mine is broken....cause the previous guy broke it.

On the dino signing...The guys hid the hulk noise box in the fixture room and moved it a couple times a day...fun times.

Alrighty need some help. In Loreal, there's a lipstick holder for the "pinks". It has lip pencil #105, and the lipstick in it is 135, 140, 580, and I think 251. I cannot for the life of me find the part number for the bullnose sign or the sign that goes in the holder. Anybody know?

I don't have these colors...Mine stop at 425

For my life I can not use that pole properly. :/

For my life I can not use that pole properly. :/

I have one broken side and one bent side. Managed to take down some overhead signing cause the wave is broken. But it took like four tries per clip...

 

[commiecorvus]

I never was very good with it either.
The few times I tried I got a face full of signage.

Were you around when they had the long magnetic bars to hang signing from that were the predecessor to the Ro-Pole? I got hit in the head a few times with those. But I still preferred it to climbing an 18' ladder!

I might be up Spot creek if I can't find the number for those 18" hooks before 4th Q.

Look up double loop on SAP, I think. I can try to find the number tommrow.

 

[BullseyeBabe]

Did anyone here do the signs for the big baby sale this am?

 

[WinterRose]

I did.

 

[Inigma]

I love how we don't have those humongous pencils around the store this year!
