Press check outing

Sometimes in the midst of my busy day-to-day job, I relish the idea of going off-site on a press check. Yes, I have to drive far and away to the 'burbs (Barrington, Arlington Heights, Lombard), but at least it forces me away from the office. Going to print is always a very nerve-wracking time for me. I'm the Production Manager, and it'll be my head if something is produced incorrectly or not up to industry-standard. Printing is permanent and therefore relatively costly, unlike the web. But the beauty of a nice print job, each page unmatched in its ability to communicate subtle shifts in color and emotion, is immeasurable.

Plus, I get to load up on new paper and cool print samples. I really love this part, I am not ashamed to admit.

Also, I'll never tire of seeing the beautiful Chicago skyline as I drive back into the city!
