Anbody in the advertising world, will tell you about this constant battle which the account executives have with their creative teams. Client understandings, deadlines, revisions and a lot more add to the fury – But at the end of it all you are a team and make a great presentation.
This morning I got to read this joke which really started off the day with a laugh. So here it is…
An advertising team is working very late at night on a project due the next morning. Suddenly, a Genie appears before them and offers to each of them one wish.
The copywriter says: “I’ve always dreamed of writing the great American novel and having my work studied in schools across the land. I’d like to go to a tropical island where I can concentrate and write my masterpiece.â€
The Genie says, “No problem!†and poof! The copywriter is gone.
The art director says: “I want to create a painting so beautiful that it would hang in the Louvre Museum in Paris for all the world to admire. I want to go to the French countryside to work on my painting.â€
The Genie says, “Your wish is granted!†and poof! The art director is gone.
The Genie then turns to the account executive and says, “And what is your wish?â€
The account executive says, “I want those two assholes back here right now.â€
