But unfortunately they do not. There will be no gum drop thinking caps today, no no. Well we can dream, but what's interesting is people who ask you to think big because they are not allowed. They're hoping that any awesome ideas you come up with can change their surroundings because such creativity can be blamed on immaturity to the business, yes that is interesting.
I found my self developing a wonderfully colorful plan to redesign the fun space for the creatives. First the color choices went to the corporate site- they're very 90's. Then we had to begin sneaking around and illegally doing stuff to make anything happen. It just doesn't make any damn sense. If a bunch of people want an office made of candy, ( this is in theory that it wouldn't attract disgusting bugs and deteriorate the building), then by GOD why the hell not give it to them. The reasoning behind all the no's is just petty, and based on rules that don't necessarily apply to this environment. I say we did make quite an attempt though. We wanted a loft so we knocked out the ceiling. Well we had support though, and that is the point. You'd never coss your teacher, or your mentor, or your boss to have a small smile factor built in your surrounding. However, you would go through with all the back-breaking work, the designing, the reforming, and the final product which makes you tired working on it, but you're happier with it than what used to exist. You do it, because it's somewhat thrilling to be able to go through with something that nobody else had the motivation for, and nobody else wanted to do for the sake of doing something drastic in an environment desperate to grow.
All I can say is this place is growing and the young one's as is traditional, are a major part of it. this all does make me think though about the individual's ability to grow by staying in the same environment too long. I think I'll be moving around.
