blog
Start day! Got laid off in March and FINALLY back to work today. For the past several years I've been focused on web projects, content experiences, and content hubs as a principal UX designer at a content marketing agency.
New role is leading UX strategy for a huge enterprise application project with a major US bank. I'm excited for something more focused and specific; my role for the past several years came with so many hats, and every ounce of eccentricity, egos, arguments, creative disagreements, and more that the ad and marketing world can conjure up.
I'm going to be back in the city three days a week and taking the train again, which I'm pretty excited about just to be around other humans again and not in my basement all day.
- Congrats. That’s quite a jump. Enterprise must be full on design-system land?mort_
- Good luck! Hope you will not be bored after a year, banking moves very slowgrafician
- Woot!!!YakuZoku
- Graf - that's one thing I'm actually excited about. I was staffed to an enterprise client years ago and the pace was nice. The world I've been in was a zoo.mg33
- mort - it sounds like it. I'll be doing less design work than I've been doing and much more strategy, which is a direction I wanted to go in anyways.mg33
- Go get itgarbage
- That's great news mg - best of luck!stoplying

- Great news. If a UX job takes 8 months to find, I expect a motion designer job to take about 3 years once I lose my job early next year.CyBrainX
- Congrats! 3 days in the city is pretty ideal. I'm on a similar routine.slappy
- Good stuff. It sounds like the right thing for you man. Good luck!pseud
- Cheers!!!! Congrats on having ownership over a singular focus where you can thrive!canoe
- Thanks everyone! I appreciate the congrats. Man it's wild to realize what a constant QBN has been across so many of our careers. :)mg33
- Congrats, hope it's fullfilling your "expectations";)
"be around other humans again" nice one! I miss it too, but only sometimes.OBBTKN - Congrats. Best move i ever made was from Agency world to Tech world. Work/Life balance is night and day. Enjoy!microkorg
- Congrats!!HAL9001
- Congrats!!!5timuli
- Congrats man! great to hear. onwards and upwards!lvl_13
- microkorg - RE: work life balance - I can't even get work email or calendar on my phone. I was surprised by this. Asked me boss; aside from security reasons...mg33
- they stressed that work life balance is hugely important, and don't want the expectation that employees are working outside of core work hours...mg33
- My 16 years in agency world brain just could not compute that. If I never do another "someone will have that done by midnight" gig again, I think I'll be happy.mg33

Food
Is In-N-Out Burgers really that great? Has anyone tried it?
- I grew up with it, and I think they have one of the better burgers around, for sure.monospaced
- They also go out of their way to have the freshest ingredients, keep prices insanely low, and treat employees well.monospaced
- Great burgers but their fries suck. If you order "animal style" they'll add cheese + grilled onions + sauce over the fries making it not suck.koma_
- Shitty fries as koma_ stated—and just as mono said—good burgers. Their patties are never frozen (meaning it's butchered / sourced very close by and recently).PonyBoy
- Its ok. There are like 100 better spots in so cal, but prices + quality keep people coming backfuturefood
- aren't their fries cut from actual potatoes? Whose fake fries are comparing them with? MD?Beeswax
- They’re just not twice fried... yes they’re immediately / freshly cut (thin) then fried on the spot... they’re okay immediately out of the fryer-just a bit flimsy.PonyBoy
- If you ask they’ll fry them twice. They’ll do just about anything custom. And the fries are awesome just different and fresh.monospaced
- #2 add onion, no tomato. Pink Arnie. You Golden.thenohero
- Overated meme burgers made by god-botherers.garbage
- meme burgers? they’ve been around for like 75 yearsmonospaced
- My family tried on our West coast visit a few years ago. They were delicious - and you don't feel like a giant piece of poo when you're done eating - bonus!stoplying
- its the perfect quintessential burger executed flawlessly. if you took a cartoon burger and made it real life, in and out is itinteliboy
- Didn't say they weren't old, but 100% a meme burger. Did you forgot all the republican politicians that went all "RT IF YOU JUST FELL IN LOVE WITH IN N OUT"garbage
- over In-n-Out's no-mask policy during the pandemic? #dontcomply was a big one. Overhyped, eh burger.garbage
- above average, far from the bestutopian
- McDonald’s fries are cut from potatoes. What the hell are you talking aboutnb
- It is a shit fundamentalist evangelical christian rip off of the classic L.A. burger that itself relies more on the freshness of vegetables than quality beef intbgoodwillie
- a good way. That is really made by bookending bites w/ El Pato's chile amarillos. I n' O has fresh fries, but they skinny as corpo fries, not the thicktbgoodwillie
- beauties from Lucky Boy and its ilk. Best burger in the US is in KC at The Westport Flea Market.tbgoodwillie
- They’re not a meme burger. They’ve had lines all day every day like this since they opened before memes existed. Nobody saw that twitter nonsense.monospaced
- Ripoff of an LA burger? They ARE an LA burger lol.monospaced
- Memes are a proto-language and far out date freshly cut cardboard french fries. People do wank hard memetically to the cargo cult burger that I n'O cranks out.tbgoodwillie
- If you are in LA don't eat a burger.tbgoodwillie

- Agreed with Ian. Also, my problem isn't so much the wordmark, as it is what they've done with the actual cat logo. It reminds me entirely too much of Puma.Continuity

https://x.com/Jaguar…grafician - Apparently a new design vision is coming in December. It’ll be interesting to see how they reposition themselves in light of this new logo.monNom

- Is this real life?utopian
- Ahhhhh those twitter comments are gold.
Rip_niko - For such a classic and refined company, this just doesn’t seem right. The capital g, the “fun” retro font, and the stripes just don’t speak jaguar to memonospaced
