Things you wanted to say to frustrating clients, but didn’t.

“$#!+ No!”

I have to leave out that brief preamble to “I can’t enlarge your 12-byte photo to 24 x 36.” You aren’t our only customer! 🙂

Woulda Coulda Shouldas are collected from the Signs of the Times Brain Squad and shared anonymously.
