Thoughts From the Middle on Politics, Faith, Culture, and Everything Else
So true... Though it's more like, "Focus on my project... Wait, you charge?"
I was sure Quizwedge would identify with this, even before I saw his comment.
I have this conversation with my boss a lot - far more than i want. it always seems to go like this:HIM - 'don't spend too much time on this new website that's going to be the cornerstone of our new business venture'ME - 'do you want it to look good or like crap?'HIM - 'it needs to look spectacular'ME - 'then it's going to take a long time and probably some overtime'HIM - 'i'm not paying you extra for this'ME - 'then it's going to look like crap'HIM - 'ok do what you need to'ugh! I need a new job.
Ah, the joys of being a creative. You have to teach people what you are worth...
