Like everything else about PLORK philosophy, have fun with these!

1. "I'm sorry. That’s not a priority for me right now."

2. "I can't help you on this now, but I can get to it next week. Would that be okay?"

3. "I have so much on my plate now I don't know when I can get to it. But I do know someone over here who can help you now."

4. "Before I take this on for you, let me show you a few things so that you might be able to do it yourself."

5. "I have made so many commitments to others, it would be unfair to them and you if I took on anything more at this point."

6. "If I can't give you a ride to school dance on Friday, how else would you get there safely?"

7. "I don't know how soon I can help you on this, but I will get back to you as soon as I am free to help you."

8. "I'm sure we're close enough that when I say "no" you'll understand it’s for a good reason."

9. "Sure I can help you with your request as long as we both agree and understand that item I agreed to do for you yesterday is going to have to wait."

10. "Before I take this over from you, what do you think we ought to do about it?"

11. "I've got good news and bad news. The good news is, I can do that for you. The bad news is, I'm so overloaded with everything else, I've become delirious and have been lying about my commitments."

12. "When I get overwhelmed like I am now, I remove every third person who asks me for something, from my "Good Friends List" and second person just left."

13. "No."

14. "Thanks for thinking to ask me, but, no thanks."

15. "I would like to help you out on this but I don't have resources available to do right job for you."

16. "Now that’s type of thing I would love to help you on if only I had time."

17. "Just like you, I get overloaded sometimes and have to tell some very special people, "no". This is one of those times."

Okay, so now you know what happens when we don't care for our brushes. So how do we clean them?

To clean your brushes, run them under tepid water. (Always hold brush under water with handle pointing up so as not to damage brush.) Add a small amount of mild shampoo to your index finger then emulsify (by rubbing your index finger and thumb together). Gently squeeze shampoo into your brush. Rinse your fingers and brush. When thoroughly rinsed, gently wring out remaining moisture from brush while forming bristles and set on a towel to dry.

With these simple steps, you could be another of Armando's customers whose brushes last them over twenty years! Just think of money you will save!
