red ink, xrefs, and attitude sounds like a GREAT blog title!!
sounds like he needs a kick in the arse from mr. c and mr.l! ha!
you didn't come across that way at all! they never would have hired someone like that. things are quiet here, yes.
i am working on the ugliest building you ever saw.
but it might be a chance for me to prove that i can actually do construction drawings (on my own.)

i am so busy here, the architect hired a recent graduate to help.he is sooo cocky, knows everytnng, but i feel like i am looking bad to 'mr. m' because i run behind "t" to fix everyting.
he does not do what you explain....and now we have a med/lg proj. going out to bid and i want to cry b/c i just saw that he did something crazy to all the files for the job.
-the scale is off in all the sheets , either drawings are teeny tiny, orr there are just the letters XREF pasted across the front.
-he saves job #0000 in job #0XXX, etc....
-never admits his mistakes, etc...
-says we should be using mac, etc.
i am very nice though, b/c i am usually in his shoes, i'm really sorry you had to train me, i hope i didnt' come across that way.
have a good one!

p.s. musing memoirs, it was weird working yesterday, we were busy, but it was so quiet, strange working when it felt the rest of the country wasnt...
