Tell it as fiction. I'll be happy to throw in my 300000 pc. padprint story including the guy who got his sleeve stuck in the machine, causing a small fire next to him, and rather than call for help flailed with his other hand trying to wave the fire out.

And the story is over. We passed thank the Lord. Can't get too specific but here are some of the fun bullet points. 8 weeks to produce. Wait, sorry changing the art lost a week. Wait, decided to use 2 sizes of graphics for the different sizes. Oh and heres the 910 ship to addresses. All 50 states. And shipping cost must be factored into bid. And you cant print by size. You need to ship the furthest locations and head East. IE you need to print both sizes of graphics (front and back) and ship every day. Oh and even though winning bidder is providing decorated goods (IE not a contract job) customer would like net 60. Wait we're adding a second graphic...............

Even us small frys have these job proposals in which the extra conditions slowly come out, one by one, eventually tipping the scale past negative to "Hell no!"
