Adventures in Graphic Design

My average week consists of a 5 day work week – in which I greet customers most of the day at my mom’s custom frame shop. But with mom gone all last week I found myself actually missing work!

So Dad offered me up the chance to go to work with him – and try my paw at being a graphic designer just like my dad!

I arrived at work early, and was excited to see if they had set me up with a window office.

Unfortunately they must not have known how important I am, because my “office” was a spot on the floor – hardly conducive to working on graphic design! Humph!

I took a tour around the office, and then it was time to get down to business.

I helped dad with some of his work, but quickly grew bored of staring at a computer screen. Somehow the job sounded much more glamorous than I thought – or at least I was hoping we would be designing something I was interested in – like dog food ads!

So I took the rest of the afternoon off and parked myself by the front door – waiting for customers to come just like I do at mom’s shop.

Unfortunately dad’s office does not have the same sort of traffic flow as mom’s retail business – so my “happy to meet you tail wag” didn’t get much use.

That’s ok though, because I used all the free time I had to “clean” the kitchen before lunch for all of the hard-working employees. I’m pretty sure it was much appreciated!

I had fun with dad at work, but I think I’d much rather greet customer’s at mom’s shop all day – sorry dad! But it’s good to be needed, no matter where I work! Ammo the Dachshund
