Very soon us GDF mods will have web logs...electronic diaries of what ever we want. I'm going to use mine partially to rant about how much of a ****ing idiot my boss is.
Bear in mind, on our job folders there is ZERO information. None...hardly any job specs, definately NO deadlines (something i've talked to him about in the past with no results). So I'm at work, creating a logo for a client in Illustrator. He comes up and says in his Penguin like voice "I need to bump this job ahead of what you're working on." I look, it's some job that's not even due till next tuesday, and it's a pissant one to begin with. His wife, she who never ****ing works, and is in the office maybe 1-2 days a week, was supposed to type out the back of this brochure, which had a lot of text. Apparently, my boss told her that I would do it. So the job folder goes back on my desk, unbeknowst to me.
So as I look at the job, I asked him if his wife had finished typing it...he was like no, you have to do it. I said well when the hell were you planning on telling me that? He then tells me the people are coming in today, at 3:00 pm (it was about 2:30 at the time, and nothing is done on this job). I said you didn't tell me the job was mine to do, nor did you tell me they were coming in till today. I was told TUESDAY.
He's famous for doing that...he won't tell you shit about when he told the client to come in for a proof, he'll just spring it on you day of. Communication to him is talking and having pennies fall out of his mouth.
So I said (exact words) "This is horse shit, just put the damn job there on my desk." At this point I'm shaking in rage...and this is only one example of what I've had to put up with for the last 2 3/4 years. His ineptitude knows no bounds. He just passes off jobs to people, and that's that. He has no idea what the term "team" means...to him it means "put money in my pockets while I put my **** in your mouth". He is the most selfish, incompetent, bumbling dotard I've ever had the unfortunate luck for working under.
His time will come, mark my words. When I leave, I'm leaving that ****er high'n'dry.
Know this: Spammers, Flammers and Trolls will be shown no mercy and given no quarter. They will be pursued to the ends of the earth and executed Mod-style.
