well maybe partially because a lot of of the boy scout leaders are .
I mean and it it sounds
+ <and I and I'm making this up I might be .
but my theory would be it's men .
and so they thi(nk)
you know .
right right right they figure the guys are good swimmers good boaters good whatever .
you know .
right .
you know .
and then that the parents that are going the leaders are just as you know as forthcoming in their knowledge whereas maybe they're thinking that the women are not as
that that's my theory you know .
they do require that you know one of our leaders must be you know certified you know those kind of things that those
most of us aren't you know .
we don't
but
hey Bob !
a question for you .
who's our commissioning agent for F_K_K_A ?
is it us because it's under fifty thousand ?
right right right .
but then for for the prerequisite .
are we are we doing an enhance or just prerequisite for Florida Keys ?
++ the engineer of record as long as they're not on the team .
right .
but I think if it's under fifty thousand square feet it can be done by one of the engineer's designers .
which is another presentation I went to yesterday .
it was by a company called Spinnaker Group that does
they're doing the
right right it's a prerequisite .
well actually somebody asked that question .
and he said in theory it could the fundamental commissioning could be a different person than the enhance .
it usually never happens .
but he said it c(ould) in theory it could be two different
+, agents .
well that's what what he said is that because they have something else it turns out that you end up only being able to have one [=! tinkling_noise] .
but he said it that in theory you could have one a piece .
but because you have this other requirement then you end up with only hav(ing) being able to get one commissioning agent .
he said it makes no sense .
but that's kinda what you know what happens .
you know that if you read them individually it could be two different teams .
but because then you have this other requirement .
I can't remember what he said .
he says you end up having to be able you know only use one .
woo hoo !
Mona did Kurt talk to you about the ?
xxx .
let me answer him .
colored pencils ?
no they don't keep them over here .
check by Juan's desk .
no .
they check by Juan's desk or the back area .
yeah .
ask Juan who's usually the one who runs off with them .
right .
oh .
y cómo que no ?
abre abre allá arriba a ver .
abre el de arriba .
just out of curiosity .
no ?
I have to agree with that .
o_k Marta tell me if this is too long .
for the girls yes .
actually I wanna add a section on women architecture .
but I haven't done that yet .
I made it .
now this one this is an Autocad drawing .
.
I've just traced it because your stupid girl scout website doesn't give you the ability to download a decent [=! tinkling_noise]
no !
and I think I can
I I ungrouped it so I'll send it to you if you want to use it .
yeah you can see the little girls the little girls so
I used Jane's little thing .
I might xxx I made it la dee la dee da .
talks about mass space volume color texture [=! reads]
I loosed it .
I used a lot of your things .
+, texture light and shadow [=! mumbles] [=! reads]
yep .
.
he he he
++ to to to admit it .
that was that was good that was good .
that was good .
I can't know .
we know we hadn't seen it of course we hadn't seen it because it was at your desk .
.
no I don't I went backwards right .

I actually moved the Sydney Opera House out of your metal because it's not metal .
you had it under metal .
it's concrete it's concrete .

I changed some of your words be(cause)
right .

+, photography we weren't doing photography
+, motion [=! reads]
+, you know how the intersection of the building to the sky [=! reads]
oh you you have two of these .
I don't know why you have two of these .
some of your images I can tell you're still learning how to use powerpoint .
+, framing of interior spaces details [=! reads]
yeah !
+, details [=! reads] [=! mumbles]
I mean I don't need to make those [=! mumbles]

+, types of architecture this is architecture [=! reads]
+, famous architec(ture) famous architecture [=! reads]
+, is this famous architecture [=! reads]
and same thing here I mean I can get rid of that one .
+, architecture is about history place time function technology materials and people [=! reads] .
and then because your thing had something about the history of it .
so this is early civilizations the greek and the romans the gothic the renaissance the baroque [=! reads]
now you guys notice what
they may not notice .
+, building interior see how it changes building interior [=! reads]
look at the difference just in in centuries .
well this is Italian and this is German so it's not a true baroque together .
+, and then neoclassicism [=! reads]
this is the inside of uh the White House .
one of the rooms in the White House .
and this is uh Schinkel in Germany .
it's really nice [=! mumbles] .
+, um industrial revolution
um uh in Berlin I think .
you probably know what it is .
+, the art nouveau the art deco [=! reads]
and I gave them a little bit of Miami so they can recognize it so they can recognize it .
right .
what ?
I was gonna flip them yeah yeah here wait wait wait wait there where .
I can't pronounce it .
it it's Schinkel .
I don't know if it's from Berlin or not .
mmmm I think it's a church .
but I can't remember the name .
oh it may have been .
now it's a
alright where was I ?
+, industrial revolution the art nouveau art deco [=! reads]
+, modernism modernism [=! reads]
+, then what is an architect [=! reads] .
and then I left Jane's little
.
there's the plan .
and then you know since
+, what it is [=! reads]
how you can become an architect you know [=! reads] .
probably a little more than they have .
but you know .
+, and then famous architects .
and then the next one I'm gonna put women since it's all girls .
I'm gonna I'm gonna get rid of these other ones and do women .
right right .
right .
and I already got xxx .
+, tools of an architect .
again these are Jane's little pictures .
and then I show them a little bit about Autocad .
I stole it from
it's not even Autocad .
you know Autocad doesn't have decent images to steal ?
this was from like Cad or some website or some other .
ah there's the elevation .
and then you know our school [=! tinkling_noise] .
you know so they can see a real building .
I may get rid of some of this animation .
and I can't get the animation to work but I have to ask her .
how it there it goes that's it .
that o_k ?
o_k o_k .
and then I have a thing this full of books .
I went for the ones that have pictures .
um now I I'm trying to figure out what they can do what they can do
Fred Cortez !
what is wrong with being an architect ?
no no no .
I don't know why people say 
+" I don't want to let my child be an architect .
I'm like
no no .
yeah .
the grass is always greener on the other side .
you know if you're an attorney 
+" why am I an attorney ?
+" I'd have an easier life if I didn't have to work eighty billable hours a week .
I mean there are people who say 
+" one day you know if I was to do something different I wouldn't do this .
but for the most I mean .
if I was to do something different it would still be design related .
o_k you know graphic designer you know .
yeah but that's hindsight is you know that's hindsight .
oh god it's it's hard .
I wouldn't be accepted in any school of architecture .
most of us wouldn't be accepted !
oh intern right .
I mean I have
how many kids you have ?
I probably have ten or twelve books .
just leave them in the car !
take them with you !
I tried to get picture books that had pictures in it just so
and actually I have a book on chairs .
so they can see design .
and I have a book on on something else
todavía tienes cookies ?
qué fue ?
what ?
what happened what happened ?
what are you looking at ?
uhhuh .
what is that ?
nobody sees it .
oh .
I don't know where where
let's see where were you [=! mumbles] .
yes I was towards the end .
yeah let me put some more on female
it was down here somewhere .
yeah you can keep some of these things over here .
right .
and you have classicism industrial revolution art deco modernism then [=! reads]
+, what how how do you get licensed [=! reads]
+, famous architects [=! reads] .
and then I'm just gonna make one slide or two slides of women architecture [=! tinkling_noise] .
+, tools [=! reads] .
this is where I was .
it was right here .
and and I I don't know how to get this animation to work .
well I'll just put it on the website [=! mumbles] .
if not I'll just dump it .
I'll put it on my laptop .
right or something like that .
when I'm done with it yeah .
I'll bring my laptop so we can
+, have it work .
want me to save this into the system ?
prior to me changing it .
and I'm gonna add some more women in there so
save as .
I've got a shitload of work to do [=! mumbles] .
uh image as graphics [=! reads] .
hmm where do you want me ?
do you want me to call it ?
+, V one career day career day [=! types] .
elevations for tile they've had them ?
she's out of the office .
don't worry .
I'll answer him .
I'll be my polite usual self and say 
+" don't give me this excuse .
+" I don't wanna hear it .
+ because <you didn't ask for it you didn't
right .
this is probably
twenty
this is a Cad color presentation xxx .
but why would it be Cad color ?
that's right .
this is the cameras .
that stupid cramer shit .
eh yeah it's not um no .
I mean well actually it should be .
because because the owner only gave us one freaking copy .
took us what fifteen months to get it .
and well fifteen months is an exaggeration .
but you get the point .
uh so it was the copies for the owner copies for the contractor copies for us copy for mechanical so it
the the the C_C_T_V the security cameras coordination .
right .
right .
contractor .
and they were
right this was the one from prices so they needed copies .
so it should be reimbursable .
we should charge em for that one .
qué más tienes ?
oh that's nice .
looks good !
yes my favorite he's awesome .
he could draw .
Josef Hoffmann couldn't draw .
but he could draw .
we went to when I was in Europe to um the Paris
one of the first exhibits that they had of of the modernism
you know early modernism art nouveau art deco secession you know secession .
nineteen hundred Paris called nineteen hundred
and it was in Paris in the Pompidou .
this was twenty years
it was one of the first exhibits it was like a comprehensive exhibit of that earlier and the precursor to the modernism .
and um they had a whole section on the secession .
you know Otto Wagner Josef Hoffmann .
and you know he did a lot of work .
he couldn't draw if his life depended on it .
yeah his sketches were like (.)
and my best fried goes 
+" oh there's hope for me yet !
+" if he can draw !
you know and then Otto Wagner's drawings were just like ahhh you know .
but Hoffmann's he's the one who
he's the one that did all those beautiful round buildings .
you know he wasn't he was a little bit less busy than than than Wagner .
she but he couldn't
I mean and he did like restaurants .
and he even did
he had sketches for the menu for the for the silverware the flatware the furniture .
I mean it was a comprehensive like it used to be but he couldn't draw worth a damn .
you know they were like you know fifth grader drawings [=! laughs] .
draw by hand ?
ah yes I have .
he still follows the old fashioned
<he's just the the Prit(zker) <he's just got an award the Pritzker I think he's just had the Pritzker .
Santiago Calatrava .
Calatrava still draws like that .
oh really ?
I didn't know that either .
well Calatrava's like that .
he draws
you weren't here
well you were downstairs when I came back from the Las Vegas .
five
he was the gold medalist for the A_I_A national convention about three years ago .
so he was the speaker .
usually the gold medalist they try to have them you know speak at one of the sessions on Saturday .
and you know it's he he pulls out
you know he starts talking about you know
and actually he's a really really humble person .
you know how some of these people they're just like .
he was like he was so honored to have gotten it that .
you know he was like in awe that all these people thought his work was really good .
that he
I think he has an office in New York or he's living xxx and he said that you know the Americans are
so I mean he was
I mean I was like oh my god this is a real person !
you know not you know .
tsk and so he starts talking about the design ideas .
and how he uh .
like the the Milwaukee art museum you know how
and he starts to draw with watercolors .
he had you know they had the overhead projector .
five thousand people the it's projecting you know half this room .
and he's just and he's just .
.
and I'm going 
+" oh my god .
I mean
not only that not only that it's like .
he wasn't in
I mean he was nervous speaking .
you could tell he was nervous speaking .
you know which was kinda like endearing .
(be)cause you know you could tell he was like 
+" oh my god .
but the minute he started drawing and talking about the ideas as he draw as he drew the nervousness was gone .
I mean he was in his element .
this was his passion .
and he's just drawing .
and I'm thinking 
+" and you're not nervous drawing in front of five thousand architects ?
you know you're my hero buddy you know .
you know it the good his work uh I have a book downstairs of his stuff that I bought .
because he's an engineer as well .
he was he he was really good .
um .
um .
right .
no the boy boy scouts is just as tough as the girl scouts .
the thing is I I would argue I would I s(uggest) I would venture to suggest that many of the troops do things they just don't tell the council they're doing .
.
does that make sense ?
.
right in our case because we're through the the the the church then you know it's not you personal .
you know we we we have the the church .
we do make them sign a release a a permission slip when we go anywhere .
and half the kids don't give it to me .
and I scream and bitch at them .
and they're going to camping this next weekend at Peace River which is a river up um
that you one of those where they drop you at one end .
and and with the canoe you canoe .
it's like twenty three miles down uh north of of Fort Myers or one of those places .
and I told the kids 
+" o_k this isn't like we're camping around the corner where your parents can come get you .
+" if I don't have a permission slip you are not going .
+" I don't care how old you are .
+" I don't care if you're a senior in high school .
+" you are not going .
they're like 
+" o_k Maria o_k o_k !
because they'd get lax .
they've gotten used to to four of the kids with s(lips) giving permission slip because it was the camping was down the street .
and mom and dad were going .
I just said 
+" I don't care if your parents are going or not [=! taps] .
+" I want a permission slip [=! taps] .
right but in this case we are going out of town [=! taps] .
we are going on a very rustic [=! taps]
I mean you have to camp with you bring what you got [=! taps] .
and you take out what you brought [=! taps] .
Peace River .
no .
hello I I gave em
I said 
+" we're not around the corner [=! taps] .
+" I want a permission slip [=! taps] .
and I said 
+" from now on anytime we go anywhere and it's camping you all have a permission slip none of you are going [=! taps] !
it's like coño !
porque es una mala crianza .
all of them have gotten away with it for years .
and they think they'll just keep doing it .
yeah we have that too .
+ oh but <they don't give you one they don't give you one ?
see our application form the back of the application form says the name gets sent to the council has all the medical history on the back .
and we keep it on file [=! tinkling_noise] .
o_k Henry had a little too many things to
when he was growing up .
alright .
but why we certainly understand the challenges of finishes this project within the scheduled [=! types]
+, time frame [=! types] .
+, time frame [=! types] .
but I find it difficult to believe that all the kitchen equipment that must be manufactured in several finished panels will delay production [=! types] .
but in the [=! types] .
in interest of fairness we are not the production company [=! types] .
in the future please contact our office immediately [=! types] .
by phone if necessary to get the required information [=! types] .
our school staff includes Jane Nick Cathy Wendy Adam and I [=! types] .
therefore one of us one of us is likely to have the answer immediately [=! types]
I already said immediately .
instant instant [=! types] .
.
instantly [=! types] .
oh I forgot Bob Bob .
+ <I didn't say anything bad I didn't say any(thing)
+ I know and <we have to respond we have to respond .
++ of delay .
yeah and we certainly done all xxx [=! mumbles] [=! reads] .
but in the interest of fairness we're not the production company [=! reads] .
in the future please contact our office immediately [=! reads] .
by phone together with our our school staff um um um [=! reads] .
therefore one of us is likely to have the answer instantly [=! reads] .
answer .
thank you !
I promise he's copied everybody and their mother so you have to answer it .
I was being polite .
I was being polite .
Jane's mine I'll just put Carl in here just because Carl can curtail his
mmhm .
he sure did .
he sure did .
alright where's your other one now [=! mumbles] .
.
I I don't even feel like writing .
yeah they might wanna read it .
let's see tsk .
when were we were out there ?
we were out there on a Monday .
March twenty-fourth .
back [=! sighs] .
Jane
I haven't even read it .
I'm answering without reading .
I will read it .
and .
I were out .
no we weren't out there on three twenty-five we were on three twenty-four .
we were out on site to review texture mockup on three twenty-five twenty-four tsk [=! types] .
we did mention the requirement of color approval [=! types] .
because a paint chip is never the same as the real thing with sun and materials [=! types]
as part of the mixture [=! types] .
do we need a a mockup for the inside ?
just so you understand our interest in the exterior color mockup at A U A U V [=! types] .
the original colors we selected did not turn out like we thought [=! types] .
and therefore had to select different colors [=! types] .
we do not want to come out to [=! types]
to know when we can come and review colors [=! mumbles] [=! types] .
are you sure we ?
I don't think we did ex(terior) interior .
do we need them ?
let's go ahead and look at it .
because some of the interiors at A U V I would have lived without of happily .
like that that um bonafide beige .
you can't see it !
you can't .
o_k [=! sighs] .
he cancelled ?
o_k .
just so you understand our interest in exterior colors [=! reads] .
the mockup at A U V xxx did not turn out like we thought and xxx [=! reads] .
we are positive that [=! reads]
eh I'm just trying to give it a positive spin here [=! tinkling_noise] .
that [=! types] .
all of us working together will result in a successful project delivered on time [=! types] .
.
how's that ?
um I am told that the paint sample for every everyday white did not match the intended color [=! types] .
and we ask for resubmittal [=! types] .
I'm leaving a little early but
uh one thirty Tim Washington's coming here .
to review .
I'm just signing a pay out .
do we need to say anything else ?
it did not match the intended color correct ?
it's not a new color ?
it is not a new color [=! types] .
what did they just didn't paint it correctly or didn't look right ?
but do we know
oh because they're not using the same
ah it is not xxx a color [=! types] .
it is simply a simply a different manufac(turer) a different shade by a different manufac(turer) different shade by a different manufacturer [=! types] .
hence the painting sub needs to match the basis of design [=! types] .
how's that [=! types] ?
you wanna put something yes .
what did you want me how did you want me to answer that ?
oops .
what was missing ?
uhhuh .
uhhuh .
uhhuh .
o_k let me ask you a stupid question .
why did we took why did we took so long to give it back to them ?
I thought we picked the colors a long long time ago .
so why are they saying they just got it this week ?
but we discovered that it wasn't right weeks ago !
no it was more than that .
longer than two weeks .
longer than last week
I thought it was longer than that [=! mumbles].
well then let's leave it alone [=! mumbles].
because we
mmhm .
you would've had it [=! mumbles] .
so what you're telling me this
++ updated .
but we've selected those colors a long time ago .
why had we never updated this ?
and we still didn't read our A_S_I ?
no no I'll tell you what happened .
this is a legend being xrefed from a different file .
she fixed the legend at W .
but it was still xrefing at non W .
I bet that's what happened .
bet you a million dollars .
because I have found plenty legends that refers to not it it's own W folder but back to the original .
back to the original uh .
do you see what I'm saying ?
because there's no way .
there is no technol(ogy)
then it's referring to the wrong folder .
no no no but I'm saying it's
she changed this .
you know she changed it two days before .
when that new drawing was opened .
I did guarantee you it's that that it was referring to
well then then I go back to my usual statement .
people need to look at these things before they're released .
+ because <they've not looked they've not looked .
because if I know I've changed a legend .
(be)cause I know when I change a legend and I go back to the drawing I look to make sure that it's uploaded it .
and when I haven't did when I've discovered that it's not then I change the legend .
and it doesn't .
and I'll go 
+" who the hell ?
and then I go in the xref .
and it's referring the same folder name but under a different project .
+ <then we then we do need to bring it in .
that's o_k .
+ <we do need to let we just
+ <we just need to we just need to make sure that staff realizes when you update a legend make sure it's referring to the folder it's supposed to .
(be)cause when you stole that legend from another folder a lot of times we forget .
you know what I'm saying ?
particularly because we borrowed all these drawings .
so we may have plain and simply forgotten to change the paths .
it was a different path .
leave it alone leave it alone (be)cause that means we really screwed up .
I'm not gonna win so .
and I'm not gonna win .
not gonna win that one .
so I'm gonna let (th)em have it .
so what's his problem on this northeast person ?
make him worth his while right ?
what'd they do ?
they
oh they definitely definitely .
(be)cause we pick on each other for work quite never that uh .
we're never on the cruel .
we we stop beyond getting too cruel .
then I perhaps mister Alvaro Rodriguez was not off the market at all .
