And the day started out so well...
May. 26th, 2005 05:24 pmWoke up to a real 3-star morning (I'd be willing to go as far as 5-star, but who's counting?) only to come into work and get handed one of the strangest requests yet.
Now, let me go back and set this up for you... Yesterday I was working on an ad for one of those Lose Weight Quick chains, I'm sure you've seen 'em, with the big Before and After pictures... "I lost a gazillion pounds in just 8 weeks and You can Too!" (puhleez) and the new pictures they sent in had this lady in her Before picture goofing around in her kitchen, holding up a couple live lobsters, about chest level. Well, who am I to say what weird pics they use, so I retouch 'em, clip out the background and put the ad together.
Today they sent the ad back, asking Please take out the lobsters. *headdesk*
