Thump thump thump
That thumping sound you hear is me, banging my head against my desk.
Annoying Dude (forever to be referred to here as: Farnalbutt) just walked past my door, STOPPED, and leaned back (in a manner that looked both uncomfortable as well as stupid) to say, “How are you today?” And waited IN THAT POSE until I spoke to him.
I KNOW that Farnalbutt doesn’t care at all how I am today. Farnalbutt is like the KING of small talk. But he’s also a major screwup. Every client that has been given to him has left us. Would someone PLEASE pass along CAC?!? (CAC=Crappy Annoying Client) This particular project is the bane of my existence. Even the most hated and vile client at my old job is better than these guys.
Ya know, I never had to deal with anyone like Farnalbutt at my old job. I wonder if it is because publicists are more disgruntled than accound managers?
