a house we designed is under construction. The first floor and first floor walls are up. The owner is a realtor who is selling the house for profit. He got a buyer last week but needs an elevator added to the house. So now we have to modify.... everything. the builders going to have to backtrack at some point to cut hole sin the floor and whatnot

How about now?

Asking for status updates every 5 minutes doesn’t slow down your work any right?

Can you change it to something like this....?

It’s like my 4-year-old. “Is it done yet is it done yet is it done yet is it done yet is it done yet?”

Some people just never grow up, and not in a good way.

Just do what I do and bang out about 10 5 minute fluffy ‘conceptual’ sketches and stick the ball back in their court by asking for their oppinion on layout/proportion/whatever

We were working on a design of a multipage piece for use on an iPad that was on version 39 (due to client changes)!! We finally got it done, and the client, in the same email that he approved the design with, asked when it was going to be online.

Yeah, give us another 10 minutes and we will have it programmed!!

Put it on outside for an industrial look & feel

its almost as if they think i have an ‘add elevator button’. I find a lot of people have no concept that it takes time to do work.

that wouldn’t have been bad, especially if it could be glass enclosed but we are already right at all the setback limits

I had a contractor request a roof plan design Thursday afternoon and they wanted it done Friday morning. They:

1. They sent the wrong sized Roof Plan via PDF form(Not scaled correctly)

2. They finally sent me the AutoCAD drawings.. Not scaled correctly.

Couldn’t do anything with it, missed the deadline and one of our competitors got the job apparently (with the wrong scaled drawings, somehow...).

FUN TIMES.

This thread is hilarious. When my wife was an intern, her direct supervisor would hover over her and tell her to draw faster.

And they wonder why she left the firm to go to grad school.

its all about nerve.......like when you got a whole lot of folks watching you do some technical precision work, you just keep on going, like there is nothing special about it, like you do it THIS way ALL the time........

........and then you cold stare the guy telling you to hurry and say “dont rush me.......”

*taps boiled egg on “all roads lead to opposaurus’s” desk, peels it, *offers one to buck *offers a bowl of hot sauce, and the salt shaker........

*continues staring intently at opposaurus working, while eating his boiled egg and hot sauce, knocking the shells on the floor.......

Get an email while in a meeting with my old boss, from a customer about a defect. Still in the meeting room. Haven’t left to go to the bathroom, lunchroom, or my office. Old boss say,”what are they saying? What did she say on the phone? What happened when you called them? Are they upset?”

I’ve been sitting in front of you for the last hour and a half. There were only the two of us in here. You have been talking to me the whole time. I haven’t picked up my phone, the speaker phone, or been paged? HOW THE FUCK WOULD I KNOW.
