  how do you deal with it, when u work as a freelancer in a hip design studio with no structure at all?

  ex: "so, do we first show the logos or the whole ci" boss1: "only the logo" 2 Hrs later boss2: "why are there only the logos?"

  argh...!

  Show up in underpants, a fuzzy bath robe, monster feet slippers and enjoy the carnage?

  um, suck it up?

  if it ain't your company, you'll probably just have to deal with it, or you could try the constructive route and explain a better workflow... but if yer just a freelancer, I'm sure they won't care what you think..

  shit in their fridge.

  • is that physcially possible?>!– scribbler1/10

    would have to make a poo then put it in the fridge?– thumb_screws2/10

    yes– Bender3/10

    i feel that it would cancel out the act of shitting in their fridge, handling your own poo– thumb_screws4/10

    projectile shitting, haven't you heard?– neue75_bold5/10

    so you get caught, turd in hand, running from the toilet..... how do you explain that!– scribbler6/10

    checking for worms?– neue75_bold7/10

    projectile shitting would take alot of sphincter control– thumb_screws8/10

    sure, but we all have to have goals right, something to strive for, a pet project so to speak...– neue75_bold9/10

    Fart in a jar in the kitchen - then place said jar in fridge. On a friday afternoon.

  If you can put up with it, do the work and run on " your shit organisational skills aint my problem" just distance yourself from it.

  Sorry to hear it, Pascii. The only thing worse than bad processes is no processes.

  why would you not create the structure you wish for? that is your job, as a professional and a designer, no?

  how on earth would anyone be able to define this for you? in school, possibly it is intentionally 'good', but as a working professional? c'mon....

  Some people work better in a structure like that, but organization is probably ideal for most. You should leave if you don't want to deal with it.
