    Oh true- we'll tell people flat out, "sorry we can't do it that day." We give them many options and if they can't work within those options in the next 3-4 weeks, then we just book them a month out at the end of the line knowing that we'll be able to find another job in the next month close...

    I occasionally encounter this annoying situation. I wanted to see what you folks do in these situations. I'll describe. So lets say I go out and meet a prospective client. I send them a bid. Maybe it has 5 items on it, ranging in price from $100 up to maybe $1,500. Lets say it looks like...
