Time to move. somewhere... Oct 14, 10, 7:16 a.m.

I've spent far too long in the suburbs. Far far too long. So now I've started looking for the next place to live. NYC was an obvious choice but I don't want to live in a shoe box.

Somewhere up and coming that's got flavor and spirit. Not much crime and definitely urban. Any ideas?

Insane Request Mar 9, 11, 7:43 a.m.

I just got asked by an old co-worker if I could provide HTML and CSS for a news site consisting of 30 templates of which more than half are custom layouts, not shared by any others.

His deadine? One week from today.

non-compete clause Mar 3, 09, 7:36 a.m.

I'm working with a client to design their company's new corporate site. They recently reorganized and have thrust upon me a new subcontractor agreement the has attached to it a non-compete clause restricting work, directly or indirectly, with any possible competition of theirs during our contract and following 1 year after termination of our contract.

I've entered agreements before, but not this strict. I hope to push back on them, but I was wondering if anyone has ideas otherwise.

I Hate the Marketing Department May 21, 09, 8:46 a.m.

So I deal with a marketing director here at work. Director is probably not a fair title to give her. "Sharp Pain in My Anus" is more apt. We work on ideas for campaigns all the time. She lacks any - I give mine to her. That's how things start off. After I get moving on design, she puts together documentation for the message. It of course arrive late. That documentation changes so many times through the course of design, buildout, production, etc., that any interest I had in the campaign itself dies a violent, bloody, torturous death. Feedback on anything i put together always gets to me insultingly late. She literally sits with my designs shoved up her ass for days, before letting know what she thinks.

After I realized she was like this for everything, I started getting anxiety pains whenever she called to ask about a new campaign idea she needed my help on.

I need some kind of relief from this. Today I have gotten violently upset. I'm talking physically enraged. I long for a boxing gym to open nearby so I can enroll immediately as therapy. Having some large, fast, unfriendly ex-con beat me about the face would be more enjoyable than the thrashing my work gets after it's made its way through her lower intestines.

Aargh. The bile. I hate work today. I hate what I do right now. I would rather work in a vet clinic clearing the anal glands from aging pets.

I'm the Daddy. Sep 8, 09, 11:36 a.m.

First day back at work after extending my clan by one. I'm sure it's not hard to believe I'd rather be at home than working. So, here's to fatherhood. So far no complaints.

Medium Format Preferences Dec 22, 08, 8:02 a.m.

My wife has a Hasselblad. I'm afraid to touch it. So, off I go looking for a camera I can beat up. What do you use, what would you own if you could?

epiphany Mar 25, 11, 12:05 p.m.

Not having a really good day, for lots of reasons. But it got me focused for a short bit. Just sat back and listened.

Recently we hired a developer aged between 65 and 75. He's a chipper fella. Nice to work with and full of stories.

I guess it's my mood but as he walked by I felt a small panic sweep around me, like a wave or cloud of heavy air. Something that said this is you, here, somewhere in the future.

What am I doing? What do I do? Who am I? What have I become? What can I do? It's all rushing on me at once and hard to digest, but I think I know something for certain. I need to change something, and change it fast.

Life is too short to be that guy, here, now.

Logos with dots Dec 15, 08, 8:32 a.m.

I like the reuters logo redesign, but I'd like to see a bunch more variations on the use of "dots" in logos. Anyone have a favorites of their own?

Quit today Dec 29, 09, 10:36 a.m.

Just tendered my resignation. The world sort of looks bright and shiny, like I've been wearing dirty glasses for some time but didn't know to take them off.

Estimate? Oct 22, 10, 12:38 p.m.

I potential client has the following needs:

Site wireframes
Designs
HTML/CSS

The above are for a web application. The programming is being done on his side and requirements are in progress.

My projected numbers are starting to look really high, and I'm worried about it.

Based off of this little info, anyone have a large scope web applications they've worked on that I can get a comparison from?
