Tour of My Existence

First Draft

Two days ago, I presented my first draft design(pamphlet of our national day) to my supervisors to get their comments and they gave me some good reviews.

'Just need to add a few more details', they said. And some said that I need to change the background into a bit lighter and I also need to change the flower because it doesn't look natural without its real color.

So, I said, "That's fine, I can do that." So, I worked tirelessly tweaked the design a bit. I changed the background and I added a few details. And so, here comes the big day;submission to the Big Boss(BB). It's not that I was the one who presented the design, but a colleague of mine. Lucky me, coz I'm not a big fan in meeting with my BB.


I waited anxiously while doing some unfinished business. As my supervisor came out from his room, I rushed to him to get BB's review. I was shocked to find out that he totally rejected my design, instead I need to design a much more simpler pamphlet; a black wordings with a white background plus some extra lines of colors(blue,red and yellow).

Second Draft: Can you spot the difference?

Ah~~~~Here we go again...As I expected, this thing would happen. In fact, it always happens. As for me, I just need to bear with BB. He is BB after all. Who am I to question his judgments? As what I was thought, in our office, there are two rules that we need to obey all the time.

Rule 1: Boss is ALWAYS right.

Rule 2: If you think that your boss is wrong, refer to Rule 1.

Now, I need to crack my head again on how to fill the three colors into the whole background of the design, where Monday will be moment of truth. So, wish me luck.
