Dan Rain and the cursed Immediate Edge Intern Program nearly ruined my marriage
Well that’s not entirely true but it did introduce a little bit of friction.
You know what it’s like you have an important project to complete and you want it to be perfect. In my case it was a Youtube video that needed to be created as part of the Intern entry requirements.
You scurry around looking for all the tools you’ll need – Flip video camera check, tripod check chroma key background sheet missing!
CAROL (my wife) I bellowed where’s my chroma key background.
Your what she replies. You remember the huge muslin green sheet that I paid £44 ($60) for. The one you moaned a bucket about.
Dunno where it is you had it last she retorted.
Well it isn’t where I left it are you sure you haven’t seen it I really need it (by now I’m suspicious as I recall one of her massive clear outs last week) are you sure you haven’t chucked it out?
No I haven’t you find it.
Damn I can’t prove it but I know she’s given it away in one of those plastic bags that the charities leave out for you to fill with all your old clothes.
OK Bob don’t panic although I don’t have time to order a new one before the deadline their must be another way.
Well their was, an old blanket that was a little bit short but did the job (sort of).
I’m still hacked off at Carol but have generously decided to forgive her
