Oh, god. Current job application contains this:
Company Name is a global firm with a compelling design philosophy; we believe in the power of design to transform organizations and improve people's lives. No matter what your professional discipline, we want you to tell us about your personal relationship with design.
Design broke my heart when I was 23. It is still very painful.
I had this unrequited love thing for design. It was rather painful--thanks for reminding me.
UGH
Remember
I am doing tedious work.
I have only finished 2 of the 5 and I already have an email saying I made a mistake on #1. EXCEPT I FOLLOWED THE STEP BY STEP DIRECTIONS. ugh ugh ugh
Design and I have coffee every third Thursday, but if I were to be totally honest, our friendship has drifted apart a bit since design's kids came along.
Catching up ...
After the Tom FCM, I wanted to point out that the Hiddleston love is great - read the smart bitches review; in this case DO read the comments.
There was mention of the Veterans/Armistice Day poppies; it was Linus reciting "In Flanders Field" ... and I ran across this.
Design killed my brother.
Congratulations, Jesse!
Frankly, I have a conflicted and sometimes difficult relationship with design. Boundaries!
