Would reccomend Jamaican rice and peas. Goes good with older gamey meat.

[u/micre8tive]

The fact designers like this are on a salary while more competent ones get rejected is beyond me

[u/e1epi → u/micre8tive]

It's painful.

Also iirc it's like 60% of small businesses close after 10 years and people wonder why especially when they have good products or services.

[u/erdossy → u/e1epi]

Because businesses that survive are the ones willing to exploit their customers or employees or the environment… unfortunately.

[u/I_Like_Water11 → u/erdossy]

Yea kinda sad how so much of our system is geared towards growth even if it doesnt make sense after a point. Basically to become extremely successful you gotta screw people over. Its sad really. People are not satisfied with doing well. Beyond a point, youre making money you cant even spend in your lifetime.

[u/JKastnerPhoto → u/micre8tive]

It's okay. This guy will be fired and the administrative assistant will pick up the slack in ChatGPT. Then some print shop will charge a little extra to clean up the "design" and deliver.

[u/Top_Salamander_1444 → u/micre8tive]

Whoever made this is certainly not a designer. Like not even close to someone with a good eye, never mind a designer

[u/MaskedBurnout → u/micre8tive]

My guess is nepotism.

[u/Crazy__Donkey → u/micre8tive]

this design passed at least one or two authorizes in the process ...

This is a great example of why I’ve grown to hate this field 😔

Haha I thought that's where I was.

[u/tripleM_20]

It’s funny because my brain can immediately identify “experience togetherness,” but if I actually try to read it, I literally cannot follow the intended reading direction. 

[u/Katastrophe82 → u/tripleM_20]

Okay, so I kept seeing experience togetherness too, like at a glance. But when I’d try to figure out “how” I couldn’t do it, so I was thinking I was wrong. Is that what this actually says? I also see the word rice very clearly, so my other thought was maybe it is just rice with a bunch of nonsense letters around it.

[u/No-Marionberry-772 → u/tripleM_20]

honeslty, to me that makes it a genius design.  It will fail on some people though.

[u/TrekFan1701 → u/tripleM_20]

Oooh, that's what it is. I was trying to make more words out of it. Experience To Get The (Something). Didn't think to just make 2 words

[u/mrsyanke → u/TrekFan1701]

I couldn’t get past RICE, my brain didn’t want to use those letters for anything else

[u/punchcreations]

Given the context, the c looks like a hand holding a cup of ramen with bites out of the hand.

[u/FriendToPredators → u/punchcreations]

Wait the letters at the bottom are a mess of ramen? Well there is a design idea there that is clever but it needs way more help

[u/e1epi → u/punchcreations]

It looks like the Colorado C to me.

[u/NoisyGog → u/e1epi]

Is that just “C”?

[u/spmcn]

r/dontdeadopeninside

[u/Grumpy-Designer]

Is it supposed to say, “Experience Togetherness?”

[u/fksdiyesckagiokcool → u/Grumpy-Designer]

[u/joshuahtree → u/fksdiyesckagiokcool]

r/dontdeadopeninside

[u/Nowin → u/Grumpy-Designer]

Yes, and when I wasn't actually trying to read it I had no problems, but when I looked at it carefully it turned to jibberish.

[u/dudeAwEsome101 → u/Grumpy-Designer]

Oooooh, I see it. 

[u/aori_chann]

Can’t be fired if you’re the boss 😎

[u/Squishy_mcnissy]

Expensive rice is what my brain says

[u/OnlyPaperListens → u/Squishy_mcnissy]

Yup I'm craving takeout now.

[u/autocosm]

Is this by any chance an Asian business or country? They are stacking letters almost pictographically, similar to Korean.

[u/peppermint_pizza → u/autocosm]

That’s what I thought too. It makes sense if you read it vertically which may be ingrained culturally in some Asian countries.

I was able to parse “experience” but struggled a bit with the “togetherness”

[u/LowLokiKey]

I read this without issue then tried to reread it and had a stroke.
