Button, Button, Who's Got The Button? Me, Apparently.

Remember earlier in the week when I crowned myself the idiot du jour over screwing up the button job? Well, today I got the news that guess what? The customer ordered the wrong button to be printed, so I had to do them all over again! All 300 of them. Whoopee...

The button machine is not at all state of the art or automated in any way. Let's just say it's very labor intensive and to make one button you need to pull on the handle twice.

Yeah, me and the button making machine are intimate friends now. The upside is that the muscle in my right arm is getting bigger.

Just say NO to buttons people, some over-worked print shop employee will thank you.

LOL. Learn to be ambidextrous and you can get a good workout on each arm!

Oh no .... this is just too funny! Maybe you should include an "Idiot of the Day" button in the order (LOL!).

I never realized making buttons was such a workout! Think of all those calories you're burning!

I can say no to buttons...

No problem. ;-)

Glad you were vindicated, to an extent (hahaha!).

And sorry you have to do a new order.

Saying NO here...
