Exhibit 921 of what it's like to work with #SmallBiz. I asked some people for their logos converted into one color images for screen printing purposes. I also offered to do the conversion for anyone who couldn’t do it themselves.

I just got a logo back that looked like someone printed it out and then meticulously colored it in using a black fine point felt tip pen… an impressive effort to be sure.

The absurd and difficult parts of working with small businesses is also what I love about it. You'll never be bored and if you thought you've seen it all, just wait a minute.

@sysop408 Was it usable for screen printing purposes?

@mjausson it was, but I'm going to redo it for them because it's just a little bit rough. It looks fine from afar, but something just didn't look right about it so I zoomed in and saw that it looked like someone had hand altered the image.

And while I'm on funny #SmallBiz stories...

I once had to do photos of a shop owned by a woman who was probably mentally ill. Her store was kinda a disaster so it was impossible to photograph.

I had never met her before, but on the first time meeting her, she said she remembered me.

I told her that no, we had never met before, but we knew some people in common. She just repeated, "No. I know you. Your name is Fidel."

Uh, no. I'm Sheldon.

"Fidel."

No, really I'm Sheldon.

"Well, what are we doing today, Fidel?"
