doing some research on getting t-shirts done.  started with a-z printers in san jose california, because without them wouldn’t have had tickets printing in time.     

So here I was the night before my flight still trying to figure out how to put the words and logo onto the tickets.  It seemed like it would be so simple.  Fast forward to San Jose the next day at noon and find me still sans tickets but hoping to find a way.  I had three hours to kill waiting for my trip mate to arrive, so after realizing there was no business center at the airport, I called information.  What do you know there was a printer on airport parkway, less than five minutes away.  So I jump in this cab with this sikh driver and his “co-pilot” son, and my two huge pieces of luggage, one weighed some 70 plus lbs, and awkwardly made it through the door of the business center with my unwieldy bags in tow. 

Out comes John C. Shaw, the president of A-Z printing and escorts me into his office, where I see jackets, t-shirts, and hats emblazoned with logos, and realize its not exactly the kind of printer I’m looking for but still hoping he can help.  After one look he starts to suggest that kinko’s nearby would be able to help me, nonetheless he came through and after two hours of fiddling around on the computer, we figured it out, and voila I had my printed tickets.  

I am so appreciative that John went out of his way to help me and after all that charged me nothing.  One thing he said stood out to me,  People come to us because we do what other printers won’t”  in other words they go the extra mile just because its the right thing to do…and I would say that does come back to them.  I for one, after seeing him go out of his way to help me with my project, would definitely reccomend him.  Furthermore, I got to talk to him and learned that he is part of men’s group that is starting an after-school program with the local public schools to help disadvantaged youth , with mentoring, and scholarships.  Now these are the kind of people I like to support, people doing loving things in their lives, and making a difference.   How fitting that I get help with my love project from a-z pringing  if you ever need any printing  done check them out  www.a2zspeciatyadvtg.com

love saved the day,
