A Tee-shirt too close to home

But if you can't laugh at your own industry, what can you laugh at nowadays?

I've heard that one before, as well as "I did it in Microsoft".

Even worse, was last week when I was asked to take a phonecall from someone who had set up a layout in Front Page - web design software, Microsoft, no less.

I chuckled. What are people thinking?

well, actually, they are thinking - they're thinking about how much money they're saving by doing it themselves in Reader Rabbit Two rather than paying some bandit to do what any fool can see is the simplest job in the world

same kind of mentality that put GWB in the White House...

and told those of us who actually have brains in our heads to "get over it" back in 2000

oh man!

I sent a client a pdf file and got an email back "oh, you did it with Adobe, I don't have that".

8O


I immediately went home and took two margaritas and didn't call in the morning...

But they are "technically" correct. Very loosely correct, but correct nonetheless. They DID do it in Adobe and they DID do it in Microsoft...
It's just they must've had a brain fart in trying to complete the product name.
I did this post in Apple.
