Some good news about airport security

Shield Security always carry these special briefcases when they travel. The metal stencil inside (which come up easily when they go through security xrays) reads “Wanted: Experienced Security Personnel”.

I’ve found my perfect job

Digital Creative Director for the world power in their NYC offices. Now I just have to work on fufilling the requirements:

BA or MFA degree in Design or related discipline
- I have a BCS in a related disapline, but already know my acedemic scores are not high enough. Thinking of maybe doing a MFA or a MPhil in new media, which university?

At least 12 years of agency/in-house experience leading digital creative for iconic global brands.
- Well I have total about 3 weeks worth of this. Might need to work on that, if I start now that means I can have this job in 2022 when I am 33.

Ability to work in a rapid paced environment on multiple projects in a scrappy, start-up atmosphere.
- Done! Although I don’t think it will be very “scrappy start up” by the time I get there.

Proven expertise at highly creative, global, interactive, innovative online marketing techniques.
Ability to communicate and sell ideas in client like setting and apply strategic thinking to our most innovative challenges.
- I’ll work on these ones over my 12 years of experience.

Knowledge of Flash, ActionScript, HTML, CSS, 3D, motion graphics and computer programming.
Advanced skill in InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop.
-  I can do all that! Although not so hot on 3D…

Who knew you needed a degree to shelve books?

This flow chart speaks to me. All my cats have been named after B-grade New Zealand celebs.
Jesse (Peach), Maebe (aka Alice from Galleria)  and (David) Farrier.

My first ever paid job was shelving books at the Titirangi Library. I loved it, but then I broke up with the boyfriend who lived out there and no longer had anyone to drive me home to the city.

This weekend I realised I need a part time job so I can pay rent next month, and called the local library to see if they needed shelvers (seriously this is my only non digital / advertising work experience) and they told me I needed a degree to do that! And a library one not just a bachelor of communications! Damn. Maybe there is an art gallery library which doesn’t have such high standards? I bet the dewy system only goes up to 600 in an art gallery too.
