Tuesdays Are For Tears

Stopped by the office on my way to the airport and made SWF cry. She sent me some client review links to some landing pages and obviously had not reviewed them before they went to the client. They were totally half-assed and she didn’t even catch that some content was missing and links were broken.

Me: How about you stop wondering why some jackass isn’t calling you and start doing your job?
Her: Wwwwhhhhaaaattt?
Me: What is right. What happened this morning is totally unacceptable and I’m almost afraid to get on a plane today and leave you managing this client relationship on your own.
Her: {cries uncontrollably}

Maybe I was a little harsh. And I had too much caffeine this morning. But really. I should take KansasAddy’s advice and buy her that book He’s Just Not That Into You. Or maybe I should buy her that other book called Dickheads and the Stupid Whores Who Love Them.  Hasn’t been written yet..I should get on that.

The New Whiteboard?

UPS has been winning all sorts of kudos for their Whiteboard campaign – initially, I loved it, now it’s getting to be overkill – they’re using it everywhere. Take a look at this site for author/performance artist Miranda July‘s new book which uses a sort of whiteboard in a very, very clever, lo-fi way. I’m going to buy her book solely based on the site – I’m easily swayed. Go on, try to sell me anything – I just bought canned eels yesterday because they were mentioned in a book I’m reading.
