If Dogs were Graphic Designers

Thoughts of the Dog:

Started my first first design job of the day, not really one that I wanted to do, big sigh, grumble, groan, sad eyes.

Got my first visual done, wow that was hard work, surely I deserve a tasty treat for that. What just one? That took me a few hours.

Ok on to the next visual, but I am feeling rather sleepy, perhaps a nap is in order first – where’s the radiator. Mmm thats better I can’t believe how tough it’s been today – oh is that a crumb I dropped, better eat that, don’t want the office in a mess.

Ok back to work, but first maybe just a quick look at youtube – search: rabbits.

A knock at the door – better bark a bit and hope they go away. Ah, it’s a client, better stop growling under my breath and refrain from sniffing their crotch, I hope they bought snacks.

The briefing is underway, but my god I feel itchy, oh that’s it I got it – did they just say something – are we speaking the same language – sideways head tip – sniff the air, I am sure I can smell BS.

Told the client that the job would cost a few more bones than previously anticipated. We needed to allow for the extra hours of research – (ie. search youtube: rabbits)

Time for a wee, this could take some time, must search for the right place to go in my perfect grid system.

Could really do with stretching my legs a bit for a walk after all that hard work, they say that getting out doors helps with creativity anyway – what a hectic day.

    Being a dog owner and a dog lover I really liked the way this story was told. Not only that – It is spot on. Very entertaining.

    This sounds worryingly familiar. I think I might be part canine.

    Hi Jennifer, know what you mean – I could just curl up and fall asleep like my dog probably is doing in the other room at the moment

    Great article Tara, it’s nice to read something light hearted and not too serious. I could do with a little snooze myself, not keen on bones though :)
