10 years ago i lost a company i worked for 15k worth of profit for fucking up. i was laughing as it was my come back of being on a 6k junior starting salary and i wasn't the one to be passing anything off either.

that sounds pretty grim mate - I once left the venue off a gig poster/flyer. Entirely my fault too. poor show.

you missed a vital part of the puzzle jazx... the posters were for the company that he works for, not an outside client.

right,
the poster is a4, with one digit wrong in the number. luckily its a dead number so no one is gonna get any hassle.
i said to my boss i would stick new numbers on but he went a head and ordered new ones.
there are 3 in the design team. i was the only one to touch the poster tho.
the best part is - the biz dev woman fucked off on annual leave yesterday. iv had to take this shit all on my own...
only 1hr 20 mins to i can get outta here tho!

that's brutal, stick the heid in the fucker poomoo, seriously.

Do what I could never bring myself to do ;)

nice........my boss wrote-up the other designer here due to a misspelling, and he was one of the proofreaders, along with two other people whom all missed it........
- kelpie0
In my own defence (re the venue-less gig) I did sit at a PC with the promoter and go through the whole poster before he signed off.
Yes; that does mean TWO of us entirely missed the lack of any venue info on this job.
Fools. Stoned fools, I'd wager...

now that the boss is out the office i can breath again.
right - i accept that i made i typo. it was a 5 instead of a 6 that appeared in the phone number.
im the designer and to be honest im expected to make spelling and grammar mistakes. furthermore when you sit and stare at a page all day, you start to see through things.
its only reasonable to ask someone else to proof read it and if they do not do it (i ask for it to be proofed every time) then its thier fault.
kelpie - i would punch biz dev but its a woman... and shes hot... but shes a fucking idiot.
i need a beer
- kyl30
probably my first letterhead job I put my own number on it, wishful think probably.
only a $200 mistake and the client never saw it.
- poomoo0
oh, and yes - i thought the first few posts in this thread were very funny.
to be honest when i got told about the mistake - i started laughing... in a paniced way... of course!
1hr 10 mins... shite!
