After looking over some of Chapter 1, it brought to mind something my high school journalism teacher told me one time: He said,” Don’t worry if it’s perfect, just get it in, ” referring to my late writing assignments. He always mentioned that there will be deadlines to meet. In chapter 1, it states that employers would prefer the work to be 80 percent complete than 100 percent late. In some cases, the work may not be considered at all if it’s late–no matter how good it is.

Another aspect of the chapter that jumped out at me is the fact that graphics and visual design are employed to increase effectiveness, and that’s “right up my alley”. I took quite a few art and design courses, drawing  and painting courses. If I didn’t have to worry about supporting a household, I would have earned another degree in fine arts from Hunter College! Our instruction manual will be likely need illustrations, which is good.
