  • at a reason-able volume....


    Hey, check out the neat postcard I made. I pretty much design everything in blue and green, since those are our logo colors and they like to beat these kinds of things to death. I have learned that this is called "branding".

    So, remember a couple weeks ago, around the time I was all in a snit over being accused of blatantly neglecting a task, and not even being able to recall being told to do said task, and that made me all kinds of nuts because i thought i was a slacker-ninja, and then i quit my job because i was so distraught about it, and it turned out that someone had forgotten to email me the design request in the first place, thereby leading to the disaster?

    Same culprits just struck again. I was asked last week to design and print 100 postcards, and handed the pile off to the cubicle-girl who's mailing them out. Today she asked me for another 100 cards. Woah woah woah. I used up all my postcard stock already. I don't have time to order and print more, because i'm not gonna be here (suckas). Turns out that my antagonists once again planned pretty poorly, and although they asked for 100 postcards, they have a mailing list with 200 addresses. Buh. This is exactly the kind of thing that sends me hurtling straight into Milton-land, mumbling about my stapler and my squirrely vengeance.

    Anyhoo, guess what, four days left!

  • that postcard looks really good.  I wish I did more things like that than tracing/line drawing, etc.  4 days...guess they'd better get somebody on those other postcards ASAP..mmmkay?

  • Thanks. I see EVERYTHING in pantone 645 & pantone 376.

    I don't mind as long as they don't try to get me to come in on a saturday. I'll go all PC load letter on their azz.

  • I also dig the postcard--and I like the green and blue, personally.

    Branding is annoying as all fuck though--but it seems to be proven.

    hope your last four days are free from the evil powers.

    oh and yeah, I thought to myself yesterday "It's july 4th, I'll read the declaration of independence" and it just made me sad.

    but also made me want everyone to read it and realize how fucked up things are, especially compared to what we were meant to be at one point in time.
