In an attempt to show Tom how much I appreciate him, I sent him on assignment to Dubai and Abu Dhabi for the next week.
He will be observing Arabic focus groups and trying not to offend too many people.
I'm pretty sure since he's started we've been in the office at the same time maybe a day and a half.
This works perfectly, except when he sends out all agency emails without runnin' them by me first.
Take this one, on his first day, for example:
Subject: the coolest
planner ever to work here.
compliment my beard and i will buy you a pint of your choice.
seriously. i need to make friends.
That little doozy was quite the hit.
By the way, how do ya'll feel about the planner survey?
Saw that Fallon Planning Blog is the second most read, which will probably spiral downward in popularity now that Tom has to post to it.

Something surprising for me was "asst. planners with masters average salary - $43,860" vs. "asst. planners with boot camp average salary - $53,300." Yet VCU was mentioned 19 more times than Miami Ad School in "programs that produce good planners." Otherwise no huge surprises. Except blogs didn't seem to be checked - "Faris Yakob," "Talent Imitates" and "Genius Steals" are all referring to the same blog. Congratulations on Trendpoint being #2, that's awesome!
i've learned to lock my email program when not at my desk, or jerks (like josh) will send out emails about you...
