Timesheets

Can everyone please get their timesheets finished.

It’s coming to the end of the month, and I am sick-to-death of being

the one person in Adland who has to chase all you useless creative

types to complete them on time.

Head office in New York are ringing me every few hours waiting for an

updated P/L report for the month.

I know we are running with minimal staff, but the salary/revenue

figures do not add up.

Can the creative who put 36 hours on the job number EVT6603 please

see me. This was a simple 24 months free credit on all microwaves 30

second radio spot, that would only be played once a community station

in the Eltham. A $230 lunch a Prego was also lodged against this job

number, where your expenses report stated you were briefing the

talent. This is out of order. The talent was the local manager of the

electronics/whitewear store in Eltham, the idea was that he was using

the telephone airwaves to tell us about the great deals on microwaves.

If you do not complete your timesheets on time, then I will use the

old tried and true technique of threatening to not pay you on time. I

have done this before, when I was working at Advertising SolutioNZ in

Wellington in 1983.
