[QUOTE="Warrior Poet, post: 2635454, member: 1057"] This is a facet of nearly every work experience, as near as I can tell. I work in a creative field (copy production for a retail catalog). But everyone's creative, right?! I mean, everyone helps their child write a school report, or cuts out magazine pictures for their bake sale flier, right? So how hard could art layout or copy writing be? Pshaw! Ain't nothin'. You say you went to school and got a degree directly related to your work? But just last week I wrote one of those holiday letters that goes out to everyone we vaguely know and tells them all about how cute it is when little Alexandra spills her Spaghetti-Os and little Nathan is learning to say Spaghetti-Os but it comes out "Pusghetti-Os!" and Bob and Deb plan on visiting Paris this year (trés fun!) for a holiday and we hope everyone in your family is doing well and Happy Holidays. So why wouldn't I be an absolute EXPERT on editing your work, even though you're the Chief Editor for the company? And listen, can you tell the Senior Art Director that blue really isn't such a great background sweep for that one outline shot on page 7. I like maroon much better. It's my favorite color. Luckily, I'm not bitter. Warrior Poet [I]Edit: Dagger75, good luck. I try to be polite to customer service when I can, as I know that can often be a really lousy job that gets little respect, both within and without a company. Thanks for helping out.[/I] [/QUOTE]
