This doesn't sound promising.

@jimthompson :
 
I agree, don't contract for print jobs outta Chillicothe. Got it.

While I only know the "print person" as an acquaintance I'm disappointed to hear of that sort of behavior - extremely unprofessional and, frankly, sad, because I also understand she has had a bit of a rough road the last year or two. I am actually happy to know it wasn't a situation of poor business ethics - I belong to a monthly "out to dinner" group and we wanted to try the restaurant out. Thanks for the "rest of the story!"

By the way MJH, have you checked out that house for sale on Stanley Street? Pretty darn nice and a bargain price considering the size and condition!

@Food_Guy
Had a terrible experience here. Food cold, not served with side items as descibed, all parties at the table not served together. Food taste mediorcre. No second chance.

@PaulaB Recovered 30 of the 40 menus - received nominal check - hope check clears. We will see -- They gave me 2 days to produce 40 menus, gifts certificates, business cards for their grand opening. They were showed proofs -- ok'd . It is over -- will not repeat that mistake.

@lanestar7 Especially when you don't intend to pay.

Either you can produce a product in 2 days or you can't, if you take a job knowing the time constraints then it's on you to meet that constraint. You can also just turn down jobs that are not enough time for you.

I think it's sad for both businesses that this has become a public fight.

@lanestar7 You are correct -- should have turned them down, however after 40 years in business I feel for start ups and knew no one else would have made that deadline. Will not repeat that mistake.

@Myopinion
This is a local business supporting local contractors. Their dumpster people are local the lawn care people are local all the employees are also local. I'm sorry that you had a less-than-desirable experience your first try. I say we be goodsports and help them get the wrinkles ironed out. It's a nice place they're nice people and I would like to see them stay. The state of Illinois gives you two chances at speeding before they take your license

I hope the furniture was replaced inside with the remodel. The chairs were awful - felt like you could fall through them.

A community organization I belong to had a dinner meeting scheduled at Sapphire for 5:30 last night (May 9). The group arrived to find a closed building and empty lot. This reservation had been on the books and confirmed several weeks in advance. Needless to say, I doubt my group will be going there, or holding any functions there, in the future.
