New to the Industry!
« on: December 04, 2015, 12:32:28 AM »
Hi everyone!

I just rencetly quit my full time job to joined my significant other in the screen printing business. Wow! what an industry! I didn't realize t-shirt could be so exciting, fun, yet very stressful.

It was almost fate, right as I came on we got extremely busy. Work, eat, sleep busy. Where did all my friends go?!  Haha

After nearly 8 months in, we have more orders than we know what to do with. We have recently taken on some retail fullfilment jobs. Auto bagger, auto tagger, awesome new automatic (better than our old Challenger)!

I heard good thing about this forum so I thought I would chime in and ask some advice  :)

I do all the production scheduling, ordering, employee production, client relationships, etc.  - full
on!

Excited to get connected with others in the industry!

Glad you found us, welcome. Now, what about your significant other? Is he too good for us? ??? LOL!
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?
