An Apprentices Tale – Part 3 (Ollie)
Ollie's Update
Here's a quick glimpse of a graphic I'm making for Summer Soulstice 8, which we sponsor.
I've been working at JJ's almost 2 months now and I'm really enjoying my time here, In the space of a few weeks I have learned so much and worked on a large variety of different projects. No two days are the same here and the Creative Team are a pleasure to work with. Everyone gets a load of work done yet the atmosphere is incredibly calm and relaxed, the amount of banter in the office makes hours tick by quickly. I attended my first Quarterly Meeting, it was interesting to see everyone from the company in one place and how well everyone got along. I also learned just how much money the company was making and what went right and what went wrong during the quarter. I made full use of the company bar tab afterwards as it was quite a long meeting€¦ I also had my first appraisal and it went really well, I came out of the meeting room feeling more confident about my work and how well I was doing. That's all for now, and I will start posting more regularly in the future, stay posted.
