Hands of a Vinyl Installer

Thirty-two degrees outside and Jason is installing vinyl on an ambulance.  I don’t go out there to watch his progress or even to say “good job.”   Brrrrr!  Too cold!

Every couple of hours he comes through on his way to the coffee shop.  He has little to say except, “My hands are freezing!” 

It gets colder throughout the day until, finally, it’s quitting time.  I’m wondering if he’ll come back tomorrow and work on that ambulance again.  He needs to be stretched out inside the ambulance thawing!  But Jason’s a determined guy. 

He stops on his way out the door to stick something down with masking tape.  Snap!  The tape breaks clean as a whistle.  I’ve never seen anyone do that. 

You learn a lot of strange things in the sign business.
