doctor who

i've had a lot of downtime at work. it's strange because all three times i interviewed everyone couldn't stop talking about how i needed to be flexible because i might have to work really long hours. like my last bus into the city is at 9:15 and they said i "should" be done by then. 

recently everyone left at 2pm. because we didn't have any work. i can work with the staying late - i have a bus that runs 'til 9:15. but leaving early i don't know what to do with - my first but into the city is at 4. so that day i just stayed and worked. in a giant room. by myself. it was weird.

but even if we stay our normal eight hours, there's still not much work. i don't know if it's because i'm still new and so they don't give me much to do? or, more likely, there's just nothing for anyone. this is a very cyclical company - with the launch schedules that they do. so it makes sense that at certain times there would be lots of work and at others little work (i wish during the slow times they would let us work 4 day weeks or something). 

anyway right now is a slow time. so i've been working on posters. the first day i worked on this one, was almost a full eight hours on this poster (and didn't even reach the top of the tardis).

this was a fun project. it's the same overall idea as all my other posters but instead of lyrics it's made up of the synopsis of every episode of doctor who. ever. that's a lot of episodes! but it was fun thinking outside the box of how i was going to make one that's not about music.
