Bruce, not everyone has the same sense of humour! So I think i would be judicious about displaying it, Amos

It could offend some feminists and worse , it could indicate that anything you promise to do for the customer could be delayed for many months...

Assuming the intent is for your personal workspace - I like it.

I think "every month" works just as well as "6".

You could add an image to it too;

I think its great.
The world has gotten so PC that we are afraid to be funny
You may also need a sign somewhere saying
''Please be aware there are signs in this shop that contain humour
Please don't take offense''

Thumbs up from me. Display it where ever you like. Life is way to short to worry about a few prudes. Everyone has the right to be offended at whatever they want but they also have the right to keep it to themselves as their comment could be seen as equally offensive.

My two cents

I forgot to mmention that my shop is my garage. The laser is for personal use only. So I won't be offending any paying customers

One of my favorite signs hangs in my local watering holes. It reads "We don't serve women here, you have to bring your own" :)

Lol, I find the sign hilarious and I bet my wife would too! You could drop the "ladies" and the sign would still work.

Ahhh but if it offends 'feminists' that makes it all the better..Some feminists are offended just because your a man, and you exist!:D

Personally, I think this sign is more insulting to the person who hangs it up than anyone else. It makes you look unreliable and uncaring. Even if it's supposed to be funny, I would think there are better things to be remembered by. Even though I know guys love this kind of humor, sarcasm is taken differently by different people.

that's my two cents, dee

I think a "Like" button is needed.

Your shop, your sign. I think it's hilarious. But, be warned, the reminders may come more often! :D

I pass by a business often that do work on cars and trucks and this sign would fit in nicely, some of their cars will set for months, custom gun work could take 2 or more years to finish

I think that $45.00 might be a touch too low

I like everyone signs, keep up the good work. My new sign that I am going to do is... If you treat her like a Thoroughbred she won't turn into a nag!!!

I hope that one won't offend anyone..

The one I have been thinking about goes something like: WARNING: YOU ARE NOW ENTERING A POLITICALLY INCORRECT ZONE. Another is: WARNING: CONVERSATION IN HERE MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO LIBERAL IDEAS.

Entrance to workshop: "If you have nothing to do, don't come and do it in here" Too many 'friends' lurk around and being disruptive in cramped space

I totally agree with Dee. I think we need more women on this site to keep the dudes in line. ;) In looking at Bill's signs, the one that says, "Nevermind the dog, watch out for the owner" really got me thinking. I live in Chicago and the concealed carry law just passed. I could make some serious dough with that sign here and not just with business owners.
