I guess you always like to think that what you do for a living is helpful to others. I really love my job – the day to day stuff and the people I meet. But my new favorite thing about working with our FlackRabbit-ers is watching their confidence grow as they discover how cool their name looks in the print ads we design. Or when I receive their request for new graphic designs with the ACTUAL DIMENSIONS of the ad/poster/flyer they need.

It is cool to see how their eyes light up with excitement and a little “um, what?” when you tell them a reporter really is interested in their story. Half the time, our FlackRabbit-ers act surprised that a reporter would care about something they do for free, just cause they love it so much. Hardly seems newsworthy to them.

Growing is cool. Usual pains and all.
