Humor - it's important
Real conversation at work today - between myself and two of my new team mates.
To set the scene - we were reviewing a presentation that is to be given to a rather large customer next week. Checking out to make sure the product shots, descriptions, numbers and prices were all correct.
There is one "banner" that is standing out. It shows it in Portrait style, yet the description says Landscape......
Team Mate #1 - I always have to stop and think - which is verticle and which is horizontal.
Tammi - oh, I have a easy trick for remembering. Whores go horizontal.
Team Mates - ..........
Team Mate #2 - We like you sooooo much.
Yeah - I think this job might just work out just fine..........
LOL! Holy crap!
