It's kinda like cigarettes, you know it's bad for your health, yet it's highly addictive.<br /><br />Oh well...<br /><br />Jay,<br /><br />Thanks, man. <br /><br />That's a nice way to put it. However, it is true that I deal with a lot of interesting people. I guess that in any workplace, you can't avoid some bad apples. <br /><br />Schaumi,<br /><br />We make client effigies and burn them to the ground. <br /><br />I wish! Nah, me and the clients are ok, they just drive me nuts sometimes.<br /><br />700 students? Wow, you're a superwoman!<br /><br />Cinders,<br /><br />You have to find out what triggers your migraine. There are a lot of possible causes. Mine, for instance, is lack of sleep, incompetence and utter stupidity. <br /><br />Oh, did you know that some migraines are caused by eating chocolates? <br /><br />Bummer, huh?<br /><br />Dirk, <br /><br />I'm with you on the pregnant missus. Not on the clients I mentioned being normal.<br /><br />Normal jackasses, maybe!<br /><br />Gorgeous Noelle,<br /><br />This lass, folks, is also an adman. Actually, adgirl (she's only 24 - so she say's).<br /><br />I suggest you find a way to print out that billboard (actual size) as he requested. Mock it up in scaffoldings, and slam it on your client's head.<br /><br />Instant gratification.<br /><br />Blair_Mitch,<br /><br />Hey, I'm always nice to the AEs!
