Description So guess who's working at a call center now? Meee! But it's not an evil one, don't worry. We do the radio and television ratings research across Canada. Just FYI, you should ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS agree to these surveys when they randomly come your way, because if you don't, programs get CANCELLED!!!! I can not stress this enough. Don't let Firefly happen again! Also, it may just be me on the other end of the line...

Anyway, these are the work doodles I've been whipping up lately. I left my notes intact on the last picture, just so you could get a bit more of the work-doodle flavor.

I now regret adding myself to the No Calls list. Kidding... I always wait for that nasty 1-2 second tell-tale delay up front, then hang up before the prepared speech begins. Sorry.

So much wonderful detail........

That delay happens sometimes because the program is on "auto-dialer" and the poor interviewer doesn't even hear that you've picked up or see your name until after you've picked up. It really stinks.

Don't worry, since BBM isn't selling anything they don't have the No Call list.

And thank you!

Once again, I just love how inventive you are with your art. No two pictures are really the same

Do your co-workers see what you draw? Are they as praising as the internet? xD

Well, occasionally they walk by and notice my notebook and I get little comments like "Did you draw that? It's really good!" and then they walk away. It's kind of nice after a few long hours of talking to unresponsive strangers.

Wow... I just love the idea of you sitting there making beautiful art when the person on the other end of the phone has no idea.

Haha. I've seen some pretty interesting hobbies going on since I've started working here... You really never know what the person calling you is doing at their desk!

Firefly was such a good show. I've only seen three episodes or so. ):

And, as always, I love your style. (:

Thank you!

Firefly was quite awesome. But, like so many other awesome shows (Pushing Daisies, for one...), it was cut down in its prime because nobody who watched it saw fit to partake in the raitings survey.

Not only that, but those who did were confused because Fox mixed up the order of a few episodes.

He's actually a guy I've drawn before, though I don't think I've posted pictures... He's some sort of office elf or something.

Top left has this 'Ophelia' vibe to me...like she drown herself, but she's nuts so she's completely okay with that.
