You should have a big butcher's knife in your office. When the morons come in, you pull it out and say, 'well, since you can't figure this out, we're just going to have to take your hand.'
oh i do not miss those days of dumbing things way down for kids who shouldn't have graduated high school. I'll never forget the 20 minutes i spent trying to make a girl understand that the decimal measurements of her document were not the same as fractions of an inch. with ruler in hand: "see how this inch is divided into 16 parts? one, two, three.. decimals are parts of 100." she was perfectly mystified.
believe it or not josh, it actually comforts me when i hear you talk about the moron students that just don't "get it."
because the fewer people that graduate from vcu art, the less i have to worry about local competition in my field. i start to sweat everytime vcu sends a new intern down to rainmaker who wouldn't mind doing my job for half the price. thankfully they scoff and walk away when they see how unglamorous the advertising production world is. i guess they've got "bigger fish to fry" in the real world.
from my perspective it looks like kids are being taught photoshop and video editing in high school and it's only a matter of time until the entire richmond market is flooded with fresh grads that want to stay in town and open up shop.
