    Some Days

    And thus, on some days. One finds all one really wishes to do after having ones opinion and expertise compleatly ignored by by the client, by the builder, by the principal designer , by the subcontractor , by the joiner, by well everyone you get the picture. Is to hide under a paper bag until further notice. 

    Ruler

    You might be able to tell that I've spend a goodly portion of the last year, locked away in-front of my computer working on drawings and details of on site projects. However this is apparently a fruitless exercise as one frequently get phone calls from builders / subcontractors requesting a dimension.  I Ask you, "did I issue you a drawing? Is that drawing clearly marked with a scale ? ITS CALLED A RULER IDIOT. US IT!"

    Darki-teckt

    The Darkitiect strikes again. Done you just LOVE it when the architect designs something which just doesn't work as planned and then uses large words to justify its inclusion in the project. 

    Job satisfaction

    On the topic of job satisfaction. One find the longer one is required to perform such simple and dull tasks as changing the roof height level.  or doing endless window schedule revisions with absolutely no design input. The lower ones desire to be at work become. 

    Focus


    Some people may say the current generation of youth; That being under 35's show a distinctive lack of focus and dispirited work ethic. I however find this to be untrue.   The problem is that there are simply more enticing, engaging and stimulating things to focus on now that work simply no longer holds the minds attention.
