Do they
do this at your agency? I thought it was fairly standard practice,
but a friend at another shop looked at me like I was crazy when
I told her. Still, hardly a day goes by where I don't have the
following conversation:
Me:
The Levi's client is downstairs, Ms. Derera.
Account
Director: Take off your pants.
Clearly,
there's a strong aversion to competing brands. The weird thing
is that whichever client comes to visit, I always have to take
off my pants. I can only assume they're all part of the same
holding company.
In other
news, I'm organizing a creative offsite this Friday to see the
new Indiana Jones movie. I'm telling myself it's going to suck
so I can be pleasantly surprised, because the last long-awaited
George Lucas sequels I saw were pretty fucking far from great.
Harrison Ford's pretty far from thirty-nine and I'm pretty far
from nine, but all I ask is that this movie not sully Raiders
of the Lost Ark by association, for Raiders was a perfect thing,
pure and good and true.
With melting
nazis.
That's
what you fucking get for fucking with Han Solo in a fedora.
