So a year ago
I worked in a startup advertising agency as a Junior Graphic Designer
In the beginning, I thought it was a cool place.
We didn't have a proper office...
It was a bar, apparently.
Yes...
It was... a bar...
Here's the thing tho
I didn't have to come to the office to work every day.
I worked from home
Or, remotely in this case.
That was what hooked me.
I work from ten o'clock to seven.
Standard working times.
My employers were pretty chill people.
They joke around a looot, and
they were pretty friendly...
So there's my boss.
The CEO
"Agressive"
My manager.
"Passive"
(and together they become PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE)
The 'supposedly' Creative Director
UNFRIENDLY SENPAI
I say 'supposedly' because
We've... never worked on a project together...
Never.
Aaand a senior graphic designer!
Cat Senpai (because she owns a lot of 🐱s)
I thought I struck gold.
y'know. My first job and
I have such chill employers
What could go wrong? 🤔🤔🤔
what could go wrong indeed...
First of all!
Job Briefs
we don't have them...
We don't have job briefs
The term 'job brief' does not exist in my company's dictionary.
They... just don't do job briefs 🤷
You wanna know how the project manager passes down work to you?
They do it via text.
They text you.
Your job brief.
Or... an email with a single sentence.
That's it.
That was my job brief for the entire year I was working there.
I did ask them. Like how they were getting their shit together.
without job briefs.
And they were like:
We think that it's unnecessary :) You know~
The last company I worked in
had sooo many stupid job briefs :)
We think that texting is faster and it gets straight to the point :)
Don't you agree? :)
No??
Omg NO?"???
Why would you ever think that they were unnecessary in the first place??
The inconsistencies with your instructions...
What the client wants
What YOU want
and what was given to me
has that... not occurred to you that...
the lot of you are a huge horrible mess?
No Job Briefs? Fine.
If this is the company's culture
then... I just have to adjust to it. Right?
fml
Secondly!
Project Timelines and Gantt Chart
We don't have those either.
My project manager
is a Magical Time Wizard (apparently)
She remembers ALL the dates and the time estimated to complete a project before it's dued (because she's uses magic)
that's why.
90% of the time
I'm working on last minute work.
Yeah.
and I don't get overtime pay... by the way.
even if I'm like, working from seven to ten
In the night
I don't get paid.
Which led to an argument I got with her.
About the Gantt Charts.
But uhm
We'll save that story for another day, shall we?
Untitled Emails!
Y'know it's cool that you guys don't even bother to write your job briefs
You'd think they bothered with titling their emails properly.
Nope.
You know shit's wrong with your boss if she asks you to send the same email
Literally FIVE minutes after you sent it
Because she couldn't find it
That's how messy her inbox was.
NEVER. Have I EVER.
Worked with people THIS disorganised.
And I thought group projects back in university was horrible enough.
Guess I thought wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
