Just got back from lunch and this looks to be getting a bit silly.
I know some of you want to know what happened:
First of all, I obviously regret speaking my mind so publically on here. I think you get to know some people on NT and forget that there are so many other people reading than those you intend. I learned an important lesson about using the internet, one I will not forget. But at the same time, I feel people can learn from my story.
I managed to turn a mistake around by facing my problem face on. I went to see the company concerned which was not easy, and they were a great group of people. We took time to view eachother's work and we were both impressed, they have some really great work in their archive. I actually enjoyed the experience and I ended up seeing them again and I met more of their team.
I have now accepted a job offer elsewhere with a branding agency which I am looking forward to starting in a month's time.
I think 2 things can be learned from this experience:
1) be careful what you say publically, be careful not to jump the gun.
2) face up to your problems and they may turn out not to be that bad.that is all I have to say on the matter. I hope I can put it behind me now and continue posting (sensibly) on NT.
Overall I have had positive things come from using NT – a profile of my work in a magazine, contacts from all over the place, help with web design problems etc.As you were.
