Today is Sucking...

Yes, today just sucked. Right off the bat.

I get up this morning, check my e-mail and get a message that a project I sent to be printed in China arrived and the client said it looked terrible. I called the client to see what was up. I haven't seen the job yet. I'm going down tomorrow. I had a feeling something like this would happen. This printer-guy isn't working out good (had some quality problems in the past). Now I'm going through all my emails to PROVE I'm not at fault. Man, what a bunch of bull#@%t! I shouldn't have to do this. I kept on insisting they get a proof print to check - now this happens. HELLO, IF YOU'RE PRINTING THOUSANDS OF BAGS - WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE ITS CORRECT?!

So. Throughout the day I had a hard time concentrating on my other jobs, which are actually going well. Despite the debacle of the day, I've tried to keep positive and keep optimistic. Days like this makes me think about how why I design. How can I turn this around?

Kendo tomorrow. Body feeling better. Healing is good.
