Need a new stop sign?

Post by Mike Jackson »

Hi all,
This video has been around a long time, but it cracks me up each time I watch it.

I am in the process of doing a logo for someone with a committee in the background and the video kept running through my mind.

Enjoy,

And, that video is a few years old. It it were made now, they'd be asking to include the Follow us on Facebook and Twitter lines.

At the very beginning, he is sitting in front of a huge stack of booklets and guidelines they supplied him and mentioned something he needed to look at on page 16.

Then there was the second girl that showed up out of nowhere with all kinds of ideas and suggestions. I think we've all had a similar experience.

Too funny.

I think of the man rolling his head on the table have a sense (as all of you have)
of his frustration. My favorite is customer showing up with their Microsoft
Publisher file. My first thought is 'here we go', how do I get rid of this individual.
