Getting By

So the last time I posted I talked about my new job. Well things have gotten worse. A good friend of mine(who's name I won't reveal) helped me get a job. I would be reporting to him, kinda right hand man job. This guy is a great creative director. Has a great eye, a great design sense and an even better managment sense. Wouldn't you know, other people didn't see this. Some people didn't see eye to eye with him or his views. So they fired him. After 3 months it wasn't working out. Can you believe that. I just don't get it. Three months is not enough time to gauge a relationship.
So with that being said, now our team has no director. This guy was a major part of why our department stopped missing deadlines. Not only did we stop missing deadlines, we were able to start doing better quality creative. He took a team of digruntled designers and gave them something to look forward to. Unreal.
As a result my colleage and I have to pick up the slack. The only positive thing to come out of this guy getting fired is that my colleage and I have grown closer and are working better together. But now we have to figure out how to work with out a true leader.
Now, don't get me wrong I'm very thankful to have a job. But now I have worry about the work and it's quality. On top of that, will I get along with the new creative director, if we ever get one.
Well I'm signing off now. I have make sure my head doesn't spin right off my fucking neck.
Keep it real.
