TUESDAY May 5, 2009

Today, our Ariel Accounts Team gave us cakes, BUT not without my expert orchestration:

TRIXIE TO CRISSY (ACCOUNTS) VIA TEXT: If I told you we could give the 3 boards a day ahead, on Tuesday, what would you give us in return? I'm swinging for a cake here.

CRISSY'S REPLY: If I told you we could move the deadline to a day later, to Wednesday, what would you do?

TRIXIE: If I told you we can only accommodate giving 2 boards on Wednesday because we're swamped with other requirements, but we're willing to OT for a cake, what would you do?

CRISSY: Call sa cake, game.

And that was how we were able to get not one, but FOUR cakes - with corresponding sweet notes from our Accounts Team of frustrated copywriters!
