Designing with the Designer

Okie… so I am not into marring peoples names and stuff… and I am not writing this blog to ridicule the person I am describing here… its just a light hearted entry… just like my other entries… no harm intended.

I really don’t know how The Company hires their employees. What I am certain of is that fluency in English is not on their list. I think, if the candidate has 2 hands, 2 feet, a pair of eyes… 2 pairs would do as well. Essentially, the candidate should resemble a human being and not have any major disease.

I am working with this Designer dude... lets call him Designer Dude, who I feel is incapable of understanding English even when spoken at an elementary level.

Plot: I am explaining the work to him

Me: …So, just replace this alphabet with “DB” and have this terminal shifted closer to the other
ones.
Designer Dude: *stares at me* *blank expression*
Me: Umm did you understand?
Designer Dude: * stares with a blank expression*
Me:*hits head on hard surface*

***

Me: Please keep a record of what files you are updating. Save them all in a different folder, so
that we know which drawings were updated.
Designer Dude: * stares with a blank expression*
Me: *Takes a noose and hangs myself from the fan*
***

Me: Please give me a print out of the Interconnection of Gas Tranche 2 for the 400V
Switchboard.
Designer Dude: Which Trench? (yes, not Tranche… Trench)
Me: *Takes a gun and shoots myself*
***

Me: Could you pass that paper to me? *points at paper on table*
Designer Dude: *blank expression*
Me: Umm, that Paper next to your left arm, could you please pass it on to me?
Designer Dude: *blank expression*
Me: *Walks up to the 7th floor and jumps off the building* ( Designer Dude is on the 2nd floor,
no harm would happen if would throw myself off the window… damn it… I cant fit through
the window…) *walks to the stair case of the 7th floor, and throws myself down*



Now, I don’t how he is personally, but apparently he has a big heart. Not only doesn’t he feed him self… he also feeds the marked up papers that I give him. All the documents, submitted by him… have either ketchup stains or other multi colored abstract art sticking on them. *eww*. Some stains are greenish brown…. I just hope its food… and not something that came out of his upper body crevice.


His pet phrases:

- I go Crystal Plaza.
- Have any the work?
- Just a one minute.
- Just you clarify
back from HELL: Spread the Blue

Yo GENUS!

The same company that hired you; HIRED THAT FREAK!
So that doesn’t say much about him… but it speaks volumes about that FUCKED up company.

He was obviously interviewed, right? Now, these interviews were either held in his mother tongue or he slept with everyone on that committee. As ridiculous as they are, nether scenario would surprise me.

THINK ABOUT IT!!!
Be happy you're out of there!
