// I can really smell the disaster upon your business if she decides to leave.

more "only" as opposed to junior.
I know Adobe and Macromedia products by having worked for them both over 6 years, I'm no designer, but I expect someone who calls themselves a graphic designer to have at least some grasp of the tools at the very least an interest in learning, but no....

ring your boss and threaten to leave if he doesn't sack her.

ouch.
like that guy who was supposed to work as a designer, more AD, at that place I freelance a lot.. when he was fired he said:
"nevermind I'm a photographer anyways"
at some point I ask:
"what camera you got?"he:
"some nikon compact thing""no slr?"
"no, I never used an slr"
"...."

I don't get the ego above all else.
1. You don't know the essentials
2. You haven't tried to learn them
3. Instead of learning you decide to work in a generic position in the company which any school-leaver could do.
4. You decide you should be paid more.

At least she's junior.
Where I work there's a senior designer who just got promoted to associate director who hasn't the first clue about design. She has ripped off countless other companies without changing a thing sometimes it scares me. If I wanted to screw her over I could just email the companies she's ripped of images of her work, they'd sue for sure.
She knows nothing about design. I overheard one of our other deisgners explaining to her who alan fletcher was recently! She often comes over to me and asks to suggest a serif typeface because literally the only one she knows is baskerville.
She's also off sick a couple of times a week and turns about 11 each day. It's a joke.
I know better designers who are still in school.And the reason for her having a senior position and being made an associate director of the company......
....she russian, so speaks fluent russian and therefore can secure the company projects over in russia.
it makes me sick. She is the main reason I'm planning to leave the company in the near future. Then they'll be screwed because no one else can customis/make typefaces, do motion work, teach them illustrator/photoshop/quark, fix printers basically anything.
