Jello or Creme Brulee?

corbusier4eva

Quoting that infamous 90s movie...

Jello - I work for a decent, mid sized corporate firm. Don't do anything too fancy, a bit wary of too much design because it isn't profitable. Really nice people, but I'm feeling more like a fish out of water with each passing week. Like slowly all the design energy is draining away...

Creme Brulee - A firm that does awesome architectural design, explores new technologies, gets published and wins awards, may not build as much and isn't as profitable, but has some really interesting, well detailed, (beautiful) buildings to show for it...

What would your choice be? Comfort food or 5 star dining? I'm having trouble deciding.

I work for the generic supermarket brand tapioca pudding...Counting down the days until my "evaluation period" is over so I can tell them to take the job and shove it.

Jello just isn't doing it for me...

Jello is keen for me to go out and nuture a small office not doing so well in California. Sounds like a great opportunity, but...

Iill probably be creating more Jello, till i'm swimmin' in it. ugh.

Not exactly satisfying, when all I'd like is a littl' brulee. Or choux pastry profiteroles with chocolate glaze. I don't know...its a tough decision.

well, apparently it's not always chocolate, but the important thing here is to get all $240 worth.

Clearly you folks have never had a gourmet hamburger, one that you can savour and could be eaten every week. Mind you sometimes the bun gets a little burned, the burger is a little over down and the condiments aren't all in the right place but it works, it satisfies, nourishes the soul and tastebuds, nice to have steak but settle for a gourmet burger anytime.

Sushi is good too, creative quick, challenging at times, fills you up but gets you thinking about other possibiiies.

We are a Grand Marnier Ice cream kinda firm! Damn that stuff is addictive..

I went to lunch today at one of my spots when I'm on the road...cause they make killer grinders. I arrived at about
11:45 beating the rush hour cause I had left a building site and it was on the way to the home/office. The owner's name is Manfred, and I always get a deep belly roll when I hear his name. Well anyhow
his whole staff were dressed as the, "Village People." It was a riot!
He asked them what they wanted to do for fun, and an employee suggestion so he said lets go with it. Damn I love this Country for letting people be themselves.

I wish I had been there with a video camera, cause it was certainly,
"Sundance Film Festival" material.....now don't go stealing Manfred,
and his crews idea....cause it was fricking Great~
