A Favorite Comic Shared

I came across this on toothpastefordinner.com and it made me smile.
Work life is going ok- I'm getting used to not being a graphic designer 100% of the day and learning a ton about the licensing process for licensed vendors of collegiate merchandise and why it's so important to protect a school's identity and marks!
Love to all,
Cait

Brilliant

I loved this so much, I bought the ad agency's poster that they sell as a co-marketing peice. It now hangs in my office!
Make My Logo Bigger Cream



This pretty much sums up the graphic knowledge of those I work with.
And every client we'll meet!

Working Girl

I'm at work! Finally!
Training over the past two days has truly been intense and the amount of information I will soon be entrusted to take care of is a bit daunting. But not as daunting as the giant 2 story photo of Payton Manning that stares at me through my office window from the RCA Dome in downtown Indianapolis.

The people are great. The commute has been easy. Waking up at 6am has been so much fun. I mean, who doesn't love rolling over and saying, "I can't believe it's only 6am. I feel so awake!"

My office is bare but holds a lot of potential and I can't wait to explore all of my neighborhood lunch options being right near Circle Center mall, the Omni Hotel and the RCA Dome.

My foot has found a temporary sanctuary under my desk elevated on an overturned box. Discomfort is unavoidable but getting up now and then has helped. Only a week and a half before I can return to being a road warrior!

Purdue's home game against Eastern Illinois will be my motivation for the week and a breath of fresh air. God grant me the strength and determination to make it to Friday unscathed!!!

Check out my company at www.smaworks.com. Our website needs some work- in due time... We're pretty nifty and we do a lot of cool licensing and marketing stuff. Our company is the guy that talks to schools and conferences and makes things run smootly as other companies produce logo'd and school branded merchandise. You'll hear more from me about my actual WORK later on.

Top 3 things I've learned in 2 days about work:
-Sitting at a desk gets old- looking out the window I can't open at a beautiful sky doesn't.
-Coffee only tastes good when you're drinking it, not a half an hour after you've finished it.
-Music is my best friend at work.

Ciao, world!
