Nah it’s all in good fun. The thought is what counts. Don’t sweat anything. I would have loved for you to have drawn me

Glad you like everything! Thanks for the kind words.

Remember, it’s the thought that counts. But if you don’t go way over budget it’s because you hate your recipient.

Don’t feel bad if anyone stuck to the brief.

Full disclosure, I was laid off from my dumbass agency the week before Thanksgiving, so I did my best to collect some (hopefully) cool (and new) things from my personal collection, including the two persimmons which I got as part of a set and never hit once; they deserved a good home. I heard Jamie is into that, so that was perfect. All of that in mind, I tried to amp up the volume of gifts so I didn’t feel bad, myself.

You definitely need a round of golf then, looking forward to retroactively adding to my secret santa gift with some golf and beer up this way. If the weather is nice I might have to come to GA over the holidays and treat ya.

Posting here for transparency, I am hoping to have my gifts in the mail to arrive by Christmas but at this time it’s a true who could say situation. I’m waiting on a couple things to come in then I can get it all wrapped and sent out. We’ll hope for the best!

This situation was entirely preventable if I hadn’t procrastinated but I am who I am.

It’s all good man, just poking fun. It’s a legit dope gift.

Ditto to all of this. Paid for 2-4 day shipping but it’s been 6 days and hasn’t shipped yet so who knows.

My thoughts exactly. Didn’t take it any negative way!

Been in agency life long enough to have finally caught a bullet. One of the drawbacks to working for a small shop – slow year, a couple big clients didn’t resign with them. They cut 6 people out of 38, so it wasn’t a fun day. I happened to be one of the highest salaries on the creative team, so while I think they’re making a big mistake cause no one else in the group had the breadth of my acumen, I can understand it. Their problem now. Just makes for a less than relaxing holiday season.

New job is the best way to jump in salary. It might be tough now but something much better could be on the horizon!

To my recipient, your package is in the hands of UPS. Godspeed.

I don’t like this and I hope things turn around quickly on this front.

Listen, for sure.

But how do we know that Marv and Harry aren’t also in the Nest??
