*** Notice-boards ***
What a fantastic idea. Lets make somewhere central that we can give you information on paper and then we'll email you to tell you we have put something new up so that you get into a routine.
Email… Notice-board… Email… Notice-board…
Then… oh oh great idea we'll put up things with out telling you and you'll miss them because "… It WAS on the notice-board, didn't you see?" haha
They also become a beacon for the daydreamer.
You go. You stop. You stare. your mind suddenly empty and all intent forgotten or at least distracted.
You stare in the hope that something pops into your head that somehow makes the degree show date magically seem 20 weeks away instead of just 5.
Then there is the note-taker. They know the board inside out. They have the measurements and proximity mapped out in their mind of how best to get there from any… ANY location in the studio not to mention the natural instinct to tell when there is some new addition. They need no email.
Ohh and then there is the novice or extreme expert (I've not decided if the actions are calculated or mere 'accident') who puts up the poster for their show above the tutorial sign up list. These guys would be killed if they were ever caught in the act.
Notice-boards… they make me laugh.
