Word of advice: Don’t insult your new boss to his face within the first ten minutes of meeting him.

Whoops.

Sure, I am a budding designer with a lot to learn.

But he’s a manager who’s too grumpy for his own good—even if he does have dimples and a cute dog.

So when I find him drinking alone at a bar and blackmail him (whoops again) into being my friend, I realize that may not have been the smartest decision.

Zero for two.

We both have mouths that could kill. My only problem is that I can’t stop picturing what else he can do with his, or whether my job is worth risking to find out.

They say not to stick your pen in company ink, but does that apply to graphic designers as well?
