(ð Fun Read ð) The Angriest Designer in the World
If youâve ever worked in a web agency, you probably know a thing or two about the creative' primadonna complex.
During my career, Iâve met a dozen creative directors, and they all were divas, but one of them was simply in another league... Great designer, a genius, maybe, but the angriest as well, no doubt about it. I mean, roid-rage-type-of-aggressive.
Iâve seen people with years of experience literally breaking into tears after talking to him. Brutally abusive, but funny as hell. Over the years, I collected some of his best rage outbursts, and here are some of his best ones.
Probably my all-time-favorite:
THIS DESIGN IS SO BAD THAT I AM GOING TO REMOVE IT FROM MY LINKEDIN PROFILE TO KEEP MY CREDIBILITY
Tough, but fair:
WHOEVER IS MANAGING THIS IS A MORON
He kinda has a point, here:
THERE ARE 1 MILLION SCREEN SIZES. WHICH ONE DO YOU WANT?
Like, after 5 minutes?
THERE'S A POINT WHERE WE DON'T GIVE A FUCK ANYMORE
Back in time:
IF I HAD GOTTEN THIS EXACT EMAIL THREE WEEKS AGO, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DONE WITHIN 24 HOURS
Once Were Warriors:
I BUILT THIS SITE AND ALL THE 5K ROUNDS OF REVISIONS. I STILL BARE THE SCARS
Yup, he said that...
IT'S LIKE ME GIVING YOU AN IPHONE XPLUS WITH A NOKIA 3210 INSIDE
Black or white. No exceptions:

THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST LOGO IN HISTORY
MKUltra?
I AM NOT A MIND READER, BUT I WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT THIS MAKE NO SENSE
No, itâs not...
IT'S NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY, BUT THAT'S NOT OUR PROBLEM
Again, heâs got a pointâ¦
I KNOW. THIS IS RUSH. VIP, NOW NOW NOW! IT DOES NOT MATTER
I love him when he goes full Wall-e:
THE WORKFLOW DOES NOT HAVE A SOUL AND DOES NOT HAVE EMOTIONS
Straight to HR:
CALL BILL GATES FOR A FIX
MKUltra, part II
MY MIND READER TRICKS DON'T INCLUDE THE LOGIN AND PASSWORD FOR AN FTP WHICH IS NOT IN OUR SYSTEM
MKUltra, part III
IMPOSSIBLE TO UNDERSTAND THIS REQUEST. MINDREADER' TECHNIQUES APPLIED
The Starbucksâ Effect
WHEN WE HAVE THE CONTENTS, THEN WE WILL DO SOMETHING. UNTIL THEN, WE HAVE A CUP OF COFFEE
Words matter
STOP CALLING IT A "FULLY RESPONSIVE" WEBSITE. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO DO AN "ALMOST RESPONSIVE" WEBSITE
Iâm pretty sure I know who this is. He got super pissed at me when I balked at spending $200k in license fees for his preferred font and complained for weeks about the second, cheaper choice. ð
