Oh, you bet I have comments
I once had an employee who hated my habit of picking up a red pen immediately after being given a document to review.
You know, habits are borne from practice. Hours and hours of practice.
Where Katie Chatfield “wished she could distribute them widely,” I have pasted a page from the Design Police’s Visual Enforcement Kit on my door.
And I’m the Director.
I’m a big enough nerd about this stuff that I think this 5 page package would make a really good tshirt.
Or maybe I can order up a brace of white shirts, each with a different tag on the pocket.
Short sleeved shirts, of course.
A lot like a tradeworker’s uniform, but definitely a subversive statement in a traditional office environment.
I can just imagine the conversation now: “Are you sure ‘kern’ isn’t a dirty word?”

I love that kit. I can’t remember where I downloaded the pdf a few weeks ago, but just sent it to the design team I work with and they loved it too!
