Cut from the Team
Afishionados,
I’ve left Sterling Cooper for another job because Sterling Cooper wasn’t as advertised. I’ve been away from the office for about a week now, but one of my former colleagues sent along an image her latest project:
This would make me want to cut my wrists
According to Peggy, she has to cut 22 triangles out of 800 cards. That’s 17,600 triangles, or 52,800 cuts. This is perhaps the biggest reason I left Sterling Cooper in the first place: All I was ever asked to do was stand and cut shit out. And boy am I glad I left before THIS shit started. I don’t know what happened to the “participate in critiques” and the “work on design projects” spiel that was posted on the Sterling Cooper web site because “bitch work” is all I was ever asked to do.
The new gig is off to a good start, but I already miss Miss Holloway. All the time we spent together coming and going, in and out and in and out and in and out at the office…
*Sniff*.
Goodbye, Miss Holloway, you will be missed.
Missin Miss Holloway is tough. But dont give upski. Maybe youll hit paydirt one o these days.
Jus keep workin on yer aim.
Can’t you invite Miss Holloway out for high tea?
Joey: I hope so. I like playing in the dirt.
nursemyra: I’ll keep her in supply of fresh cream.
I say wif propr emphasis,
In leavin Sterling Cooper,
Im sure I will forevr miss,
A certain female poopr.
Th bosses think me quite th jerk –
A most disloyal man.
How woud they know? My finest work,
Went straigt into th can!
Haven’t those goobers heard of die-cut machines. Shit you can buy a cheap one for $200.
Advertising people are the stupidest humans on the planet.
Joey: The poem you wrote’s full of wit.
I laughed when I stopped to read it.
I spent a lil’ time
To reply with a rhyme
That made sense, but I can’t think of shit.
anaglyph: You’d be surprised the amount of incompetence Sterling Cooper has.
I probably wouldn’t…
