You stupid, passive-aggressive....

"I almost didn't open these..."

So you're not going to look at the proofs I send anymore?
SO WHY THE FUCK DO I BOTHER TO SEND YOU PROOFS IF YOU ADMIT YOU'RE LIKELY NOT GOING TO LOOK AT THEM?



I didn't need this email already this morning.
It was a good morning.
Cold, but sun, dog, dishes done.


Then I get here and walk into a face full of Idiot-Aimed Stupidity Buckshot.



"I'm sure it's just that there are a lot of projects going on (yea, 15 actually, all who's priority was to be done yesterday), but this sort of thing is important in our "fast moving" world."

Well, then you can take the time to LOOK AT THE FUCKING PROOFS.


I know this place pays me well, but sometimes it's not enough.

*Edit - I'm not arguing that I didn't very minorly screw something up, in fact, I did.
But
a) in this case, I believe the tone of the email was unwarrented.
b) It was so minor that unless we employ complete morons in our stores, they should have been able to figure out that they should "insert" rather than "apply".
c) we have more than enough time to make the change, this is the one thing I have a whole 8 hours of wiggle room on.
d) It is one more button this particular coworker has pushed, and I'm tired of it/her. She's gotten very good at pushing my usually pretty even-keeled buttons, and I'm beginning to resent her for it.

Huh

You know, I saw this ad (in 2 story glory) while I was in Mexico City, and I thought, In context, it was pretty funny. I even took a picture of it.
I also thought it was a good example on how, as much as we are turning into a global market, some sentiments are still pretty regional/national.

I'll be interested to see where this goes.
