Career Highlights and Achievements

In the 80s I was asked to take over the management of a small to medium commercial printing company. I quickly observed that the dominant players in the office were primarily obese women. In a memo I announced that there would be no more eating at employee desks except that I would allow a single cup of coffee or beverage - all food was to be consumed at or in the lunch area.

Soon after - one woman came to me to ask if it would be OK for her to take tomorrow off from work as the refrigerator repair man was coming and she needed to be home. I said absolutely not - and advised her that her job was more important to her and to us - and that she could have a family friend or a competent and trustworthy neighbor meet the repair man - and - that by not taking a day off without pay - she would be more likely able to pay for the repairs.

The next day or so it was brought to my attention that one of my employees was attempting to get his wife a job working along side him in the same department. I made it clear that no such arrangement would be either possible or appropriate.

Soon I asked that the office be thoroughly cleaned and reorganized so as to be more efficient - and while cleaning and moving furniture - a Customer's Check from about five years back was discovered - a check for many thousands of dollars - which had never been deposited.

The owners of the company were furious about this discovery and soon telephoned me to thank me for making decisions and changes - which would improve their business operation - and protect their investments.

There was some crying and carrying on about these decisions and events.

In a few days or so - I was approached by the obese woman who used to manage the division and she exclaimed to me that "this is a business not a concentration camp".

She went on to exclaim that “this office used to be Happy and Congenial - like a family”.

I said - “Not Anymore”.

Business Networking

I Generally Do Not Respond to LinkedIn Association Requests - Because they're Too Open-Ended and I Don't Use LinkedIn Myself.

Art Lebedev Inspired me to Adopt His Business Philosophy in Design Work - Photography - Creative Projects - and - Life.

“As a matter of principle, we don’t work with private persons, political parties, religious organizations, jerk-offs, douchebags - and those whose views conflict with ours.

We live the way we like.

We work the way we believe is right.

We don’t give a shit about corporate values all together.

All the award plaques end up hanging in our lavatory. We abhor buzzword combinations “creative solution” and “business process optimization”.

The offers we send to our clients rarely exceed one page.

The only principle we follow is just two words: No nonsense.

And none of this stops us from being the leading Russian design studio, boasting a rich portfolio and having good reasons to think that no company will be able to take our place in the next dozen years.

Those who know that we are the best in design are few. And only a few appreciate our careful attention to the Russian language. The websites we make have no annoying animation, and you won’t see each running head repeat the author’s name in the books we publish.

It is not easy to say what makes people entrust us with their projects. There are never guarantees that we’ll find common grounds with those who wish to work with us. What we do guarantee is that whatever we do, we do it right, the way we see it.”

If you want the very best in Design - contact Art Lebedev Studios - we won't mind - really - we like them!

Disclaimer

"I'm an Attractive and Influential Person and Hang with Other Attractive and Influential People.

Smart people feel happier alone than when others - even good friends are around. A “healthy” social life actually leaves highly intelligent people with “less” life satisfaction.

Your Obesity “is” Troubling to me - More Importantly - It Should be Troubling to You - if you're Old - Fat and Otherwise Fucked Up - We Won't be Hanging out Together.

My Name is No - My Sign is No - My Number is No - The Sign Says No - My Religion is No - The Answer is No!

If you’re Here Illegally and Mooching off the Taxpayers - I’m hoping that Trump “will” deport you. We Use Tear Gas Now at the Border - because it’s a Softer Approach - and We Want You to Go Back Home - Safely - and - without Stealing Any of Our Shit - or Using Up Our Resources - Which were Meant for “Our” “Born” or “Sworn” “Citizens”. If You Don’t Like Your Government - or the Thugs in “Your” Neighborhood - Sometimes One in the Same - Shoot at ‘Em - that’s what We Did.

Remember - “Rioting Works” - and You “Can” Change Your Country - Your Police - Your Politician’s - and Your President’s Mind - Just Ask France.

I Once Exclaimed - “Why are All of Those Kids Crying in Detention at the Border? They’re Getting a Free Lunch!

I Used to be a Very Tolerant - Generous - Inclusive - Trusting and “Sometimes” - Happy Individual - but - Since You’ve Tried to Cheat Me - Steal My Intellectual Property - Patents - Inventions - Can’t Speak Any English and Cheat on Your Exams at “Our” Universities - So You can Get a Worthless College Degree - Impress - Bully and Exploit the “Poor” and Less Fortunate People in China - Get Mom and Dad to Buy You “Another” New Expensive Car - and Generally Try to Fuck “Me” While You’re Here and then “Fuck Me Again” When You’re Back Home - “Not Anymore”!

Nothing here was intended to marginalize reflect any insensitivity - Marginalize Ridicule - or contribute to any person's real hardship - suffering - emotional distress - real misfortune - or - disability.

I’m a very cynical and sarcastic person - but never mean.

You can be who your are here - so long as You were “Born” here - or “Sworn” here.

No particular activity or activities described within the content of this communication are either advocated - condoned or denounced.

No endeavor has been made to describe any Real Person - Persons or Property.

Favorite Campaigns

Service Dog Fraud “is” a Crime!

For example - Betty is overweight - "Fat" - because she can’t stop shoving Food into her mouth - and - often uses a mobile chair and an Oxygen Tank when shopping.

She puts a vest on her Chihuahua - Molly - and lets her ride along. Betty has no problem with stating that Molly is a service dog - if questioned.

Molly is not trained to fulfill any need - will probably bite someone - has Fleas and Ticks - and will Sniff and Lick the Potato Chip Bags and Grab and Go Stuff at Starbucks - “before” You Buy Some of Them.

Betty is willingly committing service dog fraud.

And Finally

Coffee and Starbucks used to be an Adult Thing - Kind of Cool - Intellectuals and Interesting People. “Not Anymore” - Now it’s Kids - Illegal Aliens - Homeless People Obese People - Fake Service Dogs - Chinese Hackers on Laptops Using the Free WiFi - and Other Low income - Low IQ - Gold Diggers - Hos - and Other Not So Cool People.

And Dirty Inside - Sometimes it Looks Like a Bomb Went Off - Never a “Clean” Table - and the Employees There - Especially at the Drive Through Locations They’re Being “Pimped by Corporate” Just Like In a Sweat Shop - and By Some Suck Up Store Manager and District Manager Who are on a Bonus Program - All to Keep the Store Sales High and the Share Price Up - for Kevin Johnson the CEO.

Also I Do Not use Social Media - not at All - All Advertising is Blocked - TV - PC - Phone - No Ads - No Pitch - No Hype - No Hustle - I’ve Also Trained Myself to Ignore Advertising Signage - both Outdoor and Indoor - All of It - “Nothing” Gets In.

I have Amber Alerts on my Phone Turned “Off” - because - it’s always the same thing - Mommy and Daddy had an Argument - and - Daddy Drove Off with the Kids and a Gun - I Just Don’t Need to Know About All of These.

If You've Ever Thought to Yourself - Wow It Seems Like “Everything's” All Fucked Up - that's Because it “Is”!

Dave - Existentialist - Skeptic and Non Believer - Borderline Misanthrope - and - Perpetual Malcontent - Discovering Ridiculous Incompetence and Corruption - Everywhere.

Oh and Yeah - It’s Perfectly OK to Not Like Me Very Much - but - You’ll Have to Get to the Back of a Very Long Line.

You Gonna Cancel Me?
