I’m not sure why the Ackers, Cundiff & Scobee Design Firm has exactly two offices — One in the fictional town of West Rock Creek and another in the very real city of Syracuse — but if you’re interesting in going on this emotional and spiritual journey with me we’re both going to need to just accept this as our new reality.
Character: Rick
CUPS 65: Pep Talk
Ackers doesn’t have a lot of self-awareness when it comes to the language he uses. In fact, just the other day he was going on and on about how people were giving him ‘Snow Jobs’. All day long it was ‘Steve was giving me a snow job all morning, can you believe it?’ and ‘I just know that Debra from accounting is giving me a raw snow job in the back alley when it comes to these numbers’. Come on, Ackers, don’t be such a geezer, sheesh.
CUPS 64: Have A Seat
Ackers, Cundiff & Scobee Design – Kicking your corporate identity design football through the uprights for the win in the waning seconds of life. The slogan’s a work in progress.
CUPS 63: Ext. 137
Important to note that 9:45 would never be prime firing time of day, because it’s in the morning, and the higher ups are still working off the pancakes they ate for breakfast. At the daily corporate pancake breakfasts. Oh, to be king.
CUPS 54: What To Do Now
Hello, yes, 911? I’d like to file a report? There’s some guy loudly talking to himself outside my house… Um, no, he doesn’t appear to be dangerous, but he’s… It’s loud, you know? It’s really weird. Like, who does that? He’s more or less performing a internal monologue externally, as if he’s in some sort of a Shakespeare performance or something like that. Using old English, as well. Oh, actually, you know what? It is a play. I forgot. They’re doing Shakespeare in the park tonight, and my house is adjacent to the local park. That explains the large audience sitting there as well. Sheesh, 911, is my face red. Go ahead and carry on with your evening!
