I’m a graphic designer and have always worked for investment bankers. What you just described is the very bane of my existence. How did you know? Have you been peeking at my personal diaries again?
Yes, I find that blowing my head off in an explosion of brain and blood really helps with my headaches too, something about eradicating the root of the problem…
Do you still think my box of 100 Syndol was such an extravagance? Huh? Huh? I neeeed them. And my axons are aching. They make a sound like this: EE EE EE – see? it is too a word. Still suffering from a lack of Zen placement I guess?
and talking of blowing yer head off … i’ve had that bloody bonnie tyler toon on repeat in my frazzled mind since i read your message on my blog … i will Git You. 🙂
” It’s perfect!… only can you move the whole building 5ocm to the left?”
I’ve already popped two Advils today. I still have to pick up my car at the repair shop. I’ll propably have an aneurism when I see the final bill.
What I hate even more is when you get sent a large document by email, and you (foolishly) presume the sender has sorted all the page settings, etc., and you print out the document, and then discover, 70 pages later, (usually half of them blank or with a column running down the left-hand edge) that you were wrong! Aaarrrggghhhh!
Yep. I’m thinking Chinese water torture, stretching on racks, burning candles below exposed genitals. Of course, all in a day’s play if one is kinky… >:)
