I have an extremely possessive client and it's a real inspiration boner killer. Just trying to wrap this up so I can pull the plug. She's a rather famous NY photographer and she's in her 70s now. But she texts me at least a few times a day. If I make an appointment to see her, she texts me several times the day before and the morning of. I'm so irritated I can't even look at her work. -____-
I don't know if it's even worth saying anything. I think I've made myself pretty clear, but she still wont let up.
- maybe she wants to develop a more personal relationship, some old artists are much more communicative than you hope. or she is just simply testing your patiencested
- She definately wants to be best friends. But being a star in her own field she is used to getting all of the attention all of the time.shellie
- I just don't have room in my life for all that rn. No new friends.shellie

- Xp is a bloated 2k with an ugly interfacesince1979
- Sure, but it doesn't need to do anything - it's just a machine controller that spits out numbers through a parallel port . That's literally all it does. *shrug*detritus

I was paranoid about a 'new business' meeting today. TWO lawyers and their rep were meeting me for lunch to discuss a new website / branding / updating their look.
I was running late getting to my meeting. When I was about 5 minutes out from the venue I thought it prudent to call them and let them know I was right around the corner...
The phonecall quelled my paranoia when one of them said "No Prob! What kind of beer should we order you?!"
It wasn't even 11:15 in the morning. :) Fucking lawyers.
- I should have posted:
Today I got drunk w/two lawyers before noon. This post is too long (and I'm still tipsy)PonyBoy - what they want?
hang out?pango - They need a new website... they wrote me a check as I was finishing beer 3... right around the time a huge plate of assorted cheeses arrived at the table.PonyBoy

We all daydream about how we argue with other people and how we would act in a fight, to appear as heroes etc
I just caught myself daydreaming about how all my colleagues at my work would be tested for penis size, and mine would come on top, but it would only be revealed to my boss
- Skip all the theatrics and go show your boss your penis already.detritus

Prep call
Us: we won't have a teleprompter with us so the talent will have to improvise his script.
Them: okay, he's good at winging it.
Shoot Day
Them: So do we have that teleprompter?
Me: nope. No prompter.
Them: Okay we'll write the script on 5 large sheets of easel paper and hold it NEXT to the lens, and walk away as he finishes each page.
Me: super.

I work from home and am thinking of getting a couch for my office but am afraid it will just encourage naps.
- you're grown-up and deserve a napGnash
- Add a TV and a PS4 with that and you won't be napping.ok_not_ok
- naps are some of the reason i love working from home. Work butt off - nap - eat - repeatcapn_ron
- *Casting audition...pango
- there is nothing wrong with 30-60min napssted
- if anything it'll help your productivityfourth
- thought 20 minutes was the max nap time. Just before your brains drops off into REM sleep, therefore easier to wake up.Ianbolton

When i was younger i used to always want Revolution! As i've gotten older and wiser it is clear that i do not want a revolution at all. You see a revolution would only result in the same realities again, with similar results inevitable. It is clear people don't understand life enough but still have the audacity to create systems which only force ways unto each other. What i want and what we really need is Evolution! (We just want our thumbs!! -Bill Hicks) Lol.. no really. Only evolution will result in individuals seeing the counterpoint of themselves in each other and everything - thus treating every life on this planet with as much sacred importance as any other. Only evolution will bring unification - not revolution.

My partners and I put together a large estimate for a project. Now the client want us to give them them advice and best practice for working in the platform so they can make a proof of concept. They want this POC to strengthen the project proposal based off the estimate and road map we made for them.
Should we start billing them now for these support requests? Or be helpful in the hopes they go with us on this project and make up our time then. What is the balance of not nickel-and-diming the client?
Thanks!
- POC is an other transaction, and has to paid before the project starts. they can simply walk away with that... 3-7% of the entire projectsted
- tell them the POC will cost x, which a portion of would be pro-rated off the main job -- if you get itGnash
- thanks guys, i haven't ever proposed a project this large, i don't want to get screwed over.BabySnakes

Found out today that our company has an anechoic chamber (quiet room) and after asking around got a chance to check it out.
Unfortunately, the guy showing me the room didn't know where the light switch was so I had to go into the dark.
Wicked mistake.
I could hear my heartbeat, my ears, and the gurgling in my stomach. The room wasn't quite as silent as I thought it would be but talking out loud sounded weird as shit.
I thought it was pretty cool.

I've got a dinner with friends today and another one tomorrow night, 2 bbqs, i want to go to them... but i want to ride my bike and work on my next personal projects during weekend too, those are not compatible and i feel guilty, time flies...
Need to slow down this social life and go back to my "shy-boy-mode" again
- I've heard about this ‘social life’ thing before, thought it was a myth.sr_rosa
- This is me every damn weekend. I feel bad for blowing people off, but I needs my weekend for me.section_014

New company partners means new and exciting ways for them to find things to meddle with and give them something to do. Today's fantastic carnival of oblivion stops at The Graphics Department.
Our 3D graphics department is two people.
We basically work day-to-day. Jobs are parachuted onto us with two or three days notice. A week if we're lucky. We have an extremely streamlined system which works, now we have this giggly cunt talking about producing workflow images (whatever the fuck they are. No-one in the office is bothered 'how' we work. I get a model, I whack some textures onto it, render, Photoshop, done. *jazz hands*), animation (of which we have no capacity whatsoever), and just general time-wasting tomfuckery which could be applicable to a larger team with a more concise work structure. I went from finishing one job yesterday, to being told this morning about two that need to be done for tomorrow.
- This will not end well.face_melter
- I'm going to buy a shitload of punk and thrash from Bandcamp to calm me down.face_melter
- You should incorporate jazz hands a couple more times in your list of steps... productivity may go up... but I suppose the chances of losing an eye increase tooPonyBoy
- This sonofabitch would probably think that as a good idea. He has no idea how our setup operates.face_melter
