Mother’s day indulgence… 3/4 pound (3 quarter pound) of beef patties, with lettuce and tomatoes… yep, I’m a bully
As an early Mother’s day treat, I took my mom for a date at Iceberg and we shared eating a classic banana split since it’s here favorite dessert… love u mom!
i took this pic at the gym tonight, my water bottle is making circle patterns so i took a pic of it in B/W using my camera phone, then shoot the contrast up
Designing great-looking logos or websites (or whatever your passion is) can be one of the most exhilarating experiences for designers like us. But after a while, you start to realize it’s not just about doing something you love. You’d also like to get paid for the work you do.
The Customer is Not Always Right
Inter-Screwed
OFFICE | LONDON, UK(It’s early morning. I need to organise my notes, so I sit down in the Reception area. The suited guy next to me is looking very nervous.)
Customer: “You’re a bit of a porker, eh?”
Me: “Excuse me?”
Customer: “You’re really chubby. I mean, they told me they were considering someone else for the position as well. But if you’re all I’ve got to compete with, I’ve got it already!”
(I realise that his pre-interview technique is from some old self-help book about psyching out the competition.)
Customer: “And I was so nervous too! Guess you don’t have much of a chance, huh?”
(I consult my notes.)
Me: “Mr. Becker?”
Customer: “Yeah, that’s me! How’d you know that? You’re here for the job too, right?”
Me: “No, Mr. Becker. I’m Gary Robbins, a technical specialist from Human Resources. I’m here to conduct your interview.”
Source: Not always right
Client: “Why haven’t you changed the website yet? I gave you the information an hour ago! You’re so slow, I might have to think about other options.”
Me: “Have you tried refreshing your browser?”
Client: “Ah, much better, you’re fast!”

About me
Hi, I'm Jiro Alonsabe! Thanks for visiting my blog. The name "Not-the-Greek-sandwich" was inspired from how my first name is pronounced. Also the word "gyro" can be often uttered in different phonetics, so does my name (to put it bluntly, people also pronounce my name wrong, often times).I am a freelance graphic & web designer making my way in advertising and also an aspiring bodybuilder :)
