Things that jerk my chain...

[axoi]

For 13 years I lived with a woman that wouldn't lift a finger around the house. I kept saying that she will change, she'll grow up. She never did. I finally divorced her two years ago. I know the feeling of being the only one contributing to the relationship. I would suggest that you seperate and find out what YOU really want out of life. Its way too short to be wasting it on someone who doesn't appreciate you. You can't ask someone to change merily for the sake of changing. Either they want to change of they don't. They have to make that decision not you. You can only change you.

I hate it when people get everything given to them. My parents make me buy everything. Then I go to school and there are people that get a brand new car as soon as they get their learners permit.

And another thing that bothers me is when those stupid advertising people come in here and have to change the font of their posts. Usually it's to that god forsaken Times New Roman.

Know what really jerks my chain?

When the salespeople give me and ad to design for someone and they ask for a 2col x2' ad...and in parenthesis is says (LONG). I go ask them 'So you want a 2x2 turned?' and they are like 'yeah can't we do that?' and I am like 'NOOOOO' DUH! Hello! If you turn a 2colx2' ad it is no longer a 2col x 2' ad and it DOES NOT fit into the columns! You wamme to float it and have it look like sh!t? Huh? Huh? I can do that!!! GRR!

Simple...One column for us is 1.4' making a 2col x 2' ad equal 1.4' x 2'. IF you turn the ad then it becomes 2' x 1.4'. Ok...that will put you at 1 1/2 columns (approx) and 2' down. You CAN NOT have an ad at 1 1/2 columns. WTF is that? You can do something that equals those inches. A 2col x 2' ad equals 4' TOTAL...so you can do say...a 1 col x 4' ad if you prefer but you can NOT just TURN the friggin AD people! Column inches to NOT work that way. CALGON TAKE ME AWAY!! ;o)

ARGH!
Ok..wow...amazing how much better you can feel after posting here in this thread :o)

my old high school pisses me off-

i am a senior @ OKSTATE and am having to do 10 hours of spanish this summer. i just started yesterday and its a pain. for one i am a night owl and the class starts at 7:30 AM and ends at 3 PM with a 30 min lunch break. why would i put myelf through this crap? well i wouldnt but my highschool told me i need 2 years of foreign language to skip it in college, so i took 1 year of spanish and 1 year of chinese (freshman and sophmore years).

so i graduate in 2000 and go to college in the fall, first thing my advisor tells me is 'Oh, your going to have to take 10 hours of foreign language because you didnt take 2 years of the SAME language in highschool' BAH! this class wouldnt be too bad if it lasted a couple weeks, but this last for 2 months, monday through friday. Thanks Jenks High School for giving me hell and pointing your students in the wrong direction

[Ryan8720]

Thank god I'm done with Spanish. I took three years. I regretted most of the last year. The perk was that I got to go on the foreign language trip to King's Island.

yes, but i wouldnt put the blame on Jenks alone. ostateoffers suggestions of what to do toskip out of several things like foreignlanguage, but the dont include details. it's almost likegetting a cell phone and finding your free minutes arent freewhen you're in the kitchnen, but they are in the driveway to your home! http://www.graphicdesignforum.com/emoticons/blink.gif

as for the godforsaken profession.... you will find atleast 75% of customers have no idea what they want, but they will reject the greatest design in the world so they can claim "they were the designer of 'it'" *note: there isnt a smilie to express a hint of the total ammount of anger this will bring to you*

I agree that cleints do suck and know nothing. HOWEVER I HATED highschool. I would much rather get paid to do work then take tests and do term papers. Screw that. It sucked going to school all day and then working at night and ALL weekend. I actually work less now then I did when I was in highschool.

another thing that chaps my ass is when people ask for your opinion, then get all offended because it's not the hippy love-fest that they WANTED to hear. now, i'm not normally nasty or anything, but when talking to adults, i talk in my big-pants voice - pretty frickin' honest.

you don't want to know? don't ask. you asked and don't like the answer? don't get offended! just suck it up, or you know who not to ask next time.

Frickin evil college book stores!!!!!!!!!!11111one I HATE selling back my books. I had to yesterday, so I could buy new books for a class that started LAST WEEK! Selling back these books were the only way I could afford to buy the p.o.s. new, overpriced books. I must have spent a good $120 on 2 books last semester... so naturally, I expect to get maybe 40-50% of their value back when I sell them... ludicrous??? I didn't think so...

So I sell them back, they gave me $10 for one!!!! I must have payed like $50 for that one!!! The other they refused to buy back, because it wasn't in use next semester! ugh!

I know this is prolly the norm for college kids anywhere... but man that just burns me up!

Another thing:

Sales reps that hand you their own designs... I know it's been mentioned beofre but OMG!!!!!1111one I just got a request for a new website design, the rep sends me a manilla folder with 'ideas' in it... basically he's layed out the navigation in a pyramid scheme that dominates the entire page, the text on the buttons are all half assed and mis-spelled, and to top it off, it's layed out over a freakishly over-compressed jpg bg image that's EXTREMELY pixelated and chalked full of artifacts... I'd like to throttle the guy... All of the images he gives me to use on this site are over-compressed and ridiculously blown up jpgs... and these are his idea of 'hi res images'!

Oh well... time to go make a beautiful site out of a pile o sh!t =P

Ouch! Tiffany hurts my eyes. It has all those pointy bits that make you not want to run with it cuz you could put an eye out.

Yea just imagine this:

White knock-out tiffany
Rainbow colored background or a Gold gradient back drop
Images not even silhouetted in a highly contrasting colored box
Body text with drop shadows


I tell you no lie man, this was the kind of work they did there. I would make a clean looking design and it would totally get scraped. He would tell me that it was to plain and that it needed to look more professional like what he was doing. I'm glad to say I did a lot more film output then design work for the guy. I just couldn't handle the horror.

Man you should have seen there catalog. They didn't even use tabs to align the pricing. I guarantee I knew more then them and I still had a year of collage left. They eventually went out of business cause of the administration or lack there of.

Here's another...

I frickin hate it when sales reps screw up my sites... In my company, Sales Reps have access to Front Page (i know, but it's the only WYSIWYG editor we have access to). My main gripe here is that they ALWAYS go in and start tinkering with things. They're only permitted to make text changes, but for some reason, they constantly find a way to screw something up. Then a Task Order falls in my lap making all these demands, sort of like it's MY fault that they screwed up the customer's website... ARGH!

This jerks my chain

I'm pasting this from an email I sent a few friends so mind the obvoius stuff most of you know anyway.

I got this job over a month ago to do a awesome poster,(heres the thread for that one (http://www.graphicdesignforum.com/?f=15&m=41349&g=42072#m42072)) full color with response cards to be glued on (for students to mail for info). the poster is on this card stock and was scored and folded into a quarter (for transport). Now the response card (size of a postcard) is a mailer, so no postage neseccary. the collge has a few ways of doing this and I wasn't sure on this one so I asked my printshop guy. He tells me that I have to contact postal services here on campus and they will take care of it. I tell him ok but to IGNORE the back half of the file I gave him but he can use the top half (meaning the response part where you fil in your info, etc). He says fine cause they can get started on it.

easy?

Well you would think. I call my client and she says she will call PS for me, great. so she does and i tell her that I will pick it up and take it over to the printshop. so a day later I go get it and it's a laser print out. no problem I go to the printshop and I write on it to USE THIS ONE! (has all the bar codes on it, etc). He isn't in that day (which is typical) so his little lackey (with huge boobs) tells me to leave it in his box. I do! I call him and leave a message AND email him that it is in there.

He has had this job for like a month now anyway (usual turnaround time in 2 weeks). but my client is fine with it... being cool. Well I go in today for a different thing and he just happens to have that job done today. GREAT. Hands me one and it looks awesome. Great portfolio piece! Well I'm sitting at the table waiting for him and lift up one of the response cards (cause the fill in side face the reader) and NO BARCODE...NOTHING!

TOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL!!!! I was pissed. I tell him and he looks at me with this blank stare! I'm like 'john remember that HUGE conversation we had about this? You told me i had to go get this done.. I did and dropped it off.' no clue..he says vaguely! Well what did you do with the printouts the PS gave you? Hummmm. now i'm worried where that is.

Luckly my client is cool about it but still.... jesus age christ man! so aggravating and my hands are tied cause university rules is everything goes thru him.

British accents annoy me, but mostly just from men. Actually, and foreigner that just doesn't speak English very well annoys me. That might be because I have to deal with it all day every day. Many of them WANT to learn to speak correctly, others use the barrier to thake advantage of people and they don't care to learn the language any better.


now that just really jerked my chain!!....i speak 3 languages fluently (i also understand spanish and french cos i use to speak them pretty well but not anymore) and the thing is that i probably speak all 3 of the fluent ones with some sort of accent and also probably make some grammer mistakes in all 3 but i really don't give a sh!t cos i'm already proud of myself for having learnt them and i feel more intelligent then most people who can only speak 1 language and who don't even try and learn another lanuage.

even if someone doesn't speak a language perfectly at least they try to and i really don't think people use is as an advantage........maybe you don't know this but it's easier to learn a language when you are younger, my parents speak english and italian with a very strong accent eventhough they have been speaking both lanuages for the past 21 years......i know alot of foreigners that get treated like sh!t cos they don't speak the lanuage at least they're trying....wouldn't it be worse if they didn't even try??? and if it's so annoying then just learn their lanuage!!!

oh and guess what when i speak english i have a english accent.....i guess i'm really annoying!!


sorry today was a really bad day so if i was a little bit too strong in what i wrote i'm sorry!

I hate it when an employer lies to your face and tells you business is great and things are going places. You then find out that he is stealing from the 401k and hasn't paid any bills, the trash hasn't been picked up in over a month, your ink gets repo'd, you can't order paper and fedex and ups won't pick up your shipments because they haven't gotten paid either. Then he has the freakin' balls to lay you off and not give you your last two weeks of pay. This is what I just had to deal with!! Freakin' sucks!! Now I am back at my old job as a freelancer which means no insurance, no vacation, no benifits! I feel like someone wrapped a freakin' chain around my neck and dragged my butt all over town. Can't get any worse? Oh hell it can't!! It all happened to my girlfriend too who I live with and now we are trying to figure out how the hell to pay the bills!! Obviously this guy is being sued up the wazoo but who knows if we'll ever see our money. I just like to believe that he'll *burn* someday!

All of that is great but you guys know how that works. Then they turn around and throw my butt in jail.

Or another example of things I hate recently, slow pancakeing drivers, and especially slow pancakeing drivers talking on there cellphones. Also on my list of things I recently hate, calling ANYWHERE in AZ and having to sit through a 30 second speech in spanish before it even says anything in pancakeING english!!!! What the hell happened to English first, illegal immigrants later? (sorry benjo, but you don't know whats going on here right now, nothing personel k) Im venting, and this is what this thread is made for.

Oh yeah, pollution, lately all of CA pollution has been sifting into our state, I havent seen the mountains in what feels like weeks (and theres lots of em around) so yeah pancake pollution, and those hippie conservatives drving ther hybrid vehicles carpooling, in the CENTER LANE!!!! You would think with an IQ of 150+ they would know how to use a HOV or carpool lane....no wonder we have traffic problems.

I understand your fustration bro! Don't worry thats what I felt like untill I learned english. ;)

[D-Zine]

I hate cocky @$$holes :o)

Also...on whole driving thing...I HATE when someone is driving slow in the FAST lane...you know, the passing lane!! WTF...get over in the right lane ya dumba$$!! GET OVER! So they don't get over...you finally get a break to get into the actual slow lane so you can pass them...they see you trying to pass them...they speed up! GRRR! You FINALLY get to where you can pass them so you can get back into the passing lane, then they get into the slow lane and speed up and pass you and this goes on for what feels like hours.

People..this is the Interstate, the highway...wherever you are. FK the games and follow the friggin rules! If you are driving below speed limit....and if you are NOT passing someone...GET THE FK OVER IN THE RIGHT LANE!

Speaking of bilingualism...benjo is right. You want attitude, drive to Quebec City and speak english. Did you know if you tried to set up a store there in english, and have english signs you'd be charged? Did you also know, that such charges is against the Canaidan Bill of Rights? Those *** slurpers get so many breaks it's disgusting. Here in Ontario we have bilingual road signs..in Quebec only french.

Stupid English should've kicked them out 200 years ago.

Im sick of people thinking that designing is easy, im sick of 1 day turnarounds. It pisses me off to have people try and rush me on a job because of there own incompetence. I have been working 10-12 hour days for 2 weeks with only a couple nites off, im sick of pancakeing working, and im sick of people thinking I can just whip out fantastic amazing designs for them on a whim.

Basically im just sick of people, especially the ones that don't appreciate the hard work, talent, and most importantly THE TIME it takes to do what I do. I just got asked to work this weekend too. ARggggghhhh, so yeah, i just turned down some jobs cuz i told myself im going to relax this weekend and not work.

sh!tty thing is I could really use the money right now, its usually slow in the summer but I just want to pancakeing scream right now cuz of the ridiculous deadlines im being met with

What irks me huh, let see....

It annoys me when you go to an art college, and when you create a photo-realistic object through Illustrator, people dismiss it as a trace job. I guess their methods of modeling a character from 3D Studio Max, using a character sheet on their screen isn't considered tracing.

Or how some students like to believe photoshop, max, or maya is more of a challenging program then illustrator is. Please, spare me with that garbage. There is no single 'easy' or 'hard' programs out there, if there were then one of them would be selling like hot cakes making anyone a designer (although that part is still true) and the other a waste of a perfectly good compact disc.

Then there is the fact that there are actual design teams working for large brand names such as nike who charge 18 dollars for a cotton t-shirt illustrating the word 'NIKE' on the front through a silk-screen method. The design team must be laughing their ass of at the stooge who purchases that hot piece of dung for what they are pricing it for. However, society wants us to all be hip and cool from garbage we don't need.

Or when I associate with my college friends, which all attend an art college, and they don't know a spit of any info on the masters of art who paved the way for them. Or the industry. How can someone expect to get a job in a industry they have no idea about? Whatever happened to knowing of Van Goah, Monnet, Cubism, Modernism, Abstract, and so on. Oh wait, there is a single art history class meant to teach those things which no one makes the effort in learning, thats right. Have fun hiring these yutz for your companies.

Thats my rant.

I am starting to get annoyed with this new age (my term for it anyway) use of multiple layers/screens/shapes in design work. The odd placed text, oddball sizes and shapes of smithereens and so forth. You can walk into any 'wanna be' upper echelon company, grab some of their advertising literature, and find almost the same garbage 4 doors down at the next 'wanna be' company.

Sometimes trends just annoy me. I'm not saying they are lacking in what we consider to be 'good' design...but it seems the GD catch phrase of 'think outside the box' just got put in a big box.

I am so sick and tired of young ppl talking garbage instead of helping
someone out with their designs. I don't find it as much here but I
think that has to do with the age difference here. I am so sick of them
knocking someone down just to make themselves feel better. How the
heck is someone supposed to feel comfortable posting something when
they see how harsh ppl are and how much ppl verbally attach others?
Other forums seem to allow young kids to 'try' to critique someones work
and allow them to make harsh comments. Makes me wonder how the heck
they are ever going to make it in the real world being so rude and arrogant.
Guess I would like to see more forums like this and less forums with damn
kids on it telling ppl what they think. Don't get me wrong...there are some
talented kids out there. Ones that blow me away but that doesn't give
them the right to be arrogant. I guess ppl don't really understand the term...
'constructive'

[paulrandfan]

Cat's eye I agree. I think a lot of it has to do with where we came from, as far as school goes. My professors and mentors were all from Eastern Europe, raised in the old school where things were harsh. My professors spoke of times when critiques were silent, they weren't told what was wrong, they just knew it, and they couldn't pass unless they fixed what was wrong (in their professor's eyes) without knowing what was wrong with it. Their upbringing made their teaching style really strict, and although I never underwent the silent critique, they were very verbally abusive at times, to the point that several of the beginning students had to leave school. Their criticism was very personal, and very harsh, ...just a very rigid environment to be brought up in. I don't know if that's the circumstance in which the people criticizing you were in, but that's the way it was for me. Maybe they realize they are being that way, and maybe they don't. I guess to some extent my professors thought they were preparing me for the real world, which can be very harsh. I wish too, that there were more forums like this. I like constructive criticism, and I like looking at other people's work and brainstorming with you all. If I ever come across as arrogant or harsh, please let me know, because I definately don't realize it.

well, ryaninwa said several times that the problem with the field is the people who only care about looks and money and popularity and not choking on their silver spoons. i was talking to brandon and donna about it when brenda and tiffany came over in their daddy's jag and said that we were late for trig. so i said, like, 'oh, gag me...' and then we went shopping, y'know?

don't know what gender that dude is, don't know what age, either. i DO have an inkling about how big the chip on his shoulder is. whatever the criticism was about the work that put it there, it sure must've stung. but we all know about being able to take criticism with a grain of salt, right?

Magnus, I can't tell you how many times some 'mundane' has confided that they once met someone who told them about a book that a friend of theirs saw about a community course that their brother-in-law thought about taking in art or design that ushered them into the unique world of GD...

One woman at a corporation I once worked for would come in and watch me work and chime in at every move how she had taken a course that told her all about designers and our 'trade secrets' like - and I am not making this up - listening to music to stimulate our creativity. 'Yeah,' she'd say, 'I learned all about you guys... I know all that stuff now.'

Whew! Wish I'd have had the control to respond as you did M. Unfortunately, after the 23rd time of her incursion, I'm afraid I responded in a manner similar to D-F's sig...
