You know, a quick idea for another copywriter here – a beer with another one there. It keeps the permie copywriter on his (or her) toes.<br /><br />I'd never let another copywriter see my Moleskine or touch my pencil though – I DO have standards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1608275452504165903.post-62102942458155645832010-01-27T15:38:53.038+00:002010-01-27T15:38:53.038+00:00Chalky

Never socialise out of office hours, including lunchtime.<br /><br />2. Spend a lot of time away from your desk (include visits to the printer, toilet, kitchen, toilet, kitchen and general aimless wandering)<br /><br />3. Never take annual leave at the same time as your copywriter. Their holiday is your holiday. <br /><br />4. Spend a lot of time with other art directors. The more the better. Copywriters hate these kinds of gatherings.<br /><br />5. Encourage your creative partner to procreate as much as possible so that they take paternity/maternity leave . (Warning - actually getting them pregnant or getting pregnant by them without their consent could lead to HR issues)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1608275452504165903.post-56536781177403553022010-01-26T13:52:09.106+00:002010-01-26T13:52:09.106+00:00I think the secret to a successful relationship is...I think the secret to a successful relationship is some noise reducing headphones and a large computer moniter.
