these wonderful items sit idol against empty cubes- like a neon pink soccer ball in the 'stepford wives'. These playful things have use, but they represent the fun level here. The fun being used sits in the back supply room where generally 'the guys' resort to a little ping pong. Do these scooters 'rep' a facade to the agency fun life? I sat in a meeting for a new quickie project, and it was yet again for the account people. The one woman went on about how she had never worked with creatives like this before. She had at her disposal: 2 graphic designers, a director, and me the writer. They had no specific tasks for us, and really didn't know what to have us do. I think I may have found the loop hole to the creative input at this place. It is currently: a free-for-all. I didn't recognize because it's hard to see. This place is littered mostly with account and strategists, but the new incoming wave of creative people is because this creative wing is essentially new. However, there are the characters here that support a generally creative mind because they themselves are fun people. Cookster: IE-Kathy, fun-loving, candy-giving exec. Office manager person knows old time ways of promoting a fun office. Everybody loves her, and she remains the neutral party band-aid to any crabby office types. Oh Kathy, how I know she would just grab one of those scooters one day excitedly, rip off the cob-webs, and fly free own the bad 90's carpet with passing dashes; just to make me smile. There remains few things happier than a 40-some year old woman, with a big smile, showing off her scooter skills.
