Little pee'd off this morning...
A company came to me to get a logo created as they didn't like the options of another company.
I gave them 6 different logo options, I put a lot of thought and effort and incorporated more of their brand into the logos, each touching a different theme within their brand.
I took Friday off, and came back in Monday. I had an email saying that they wanted to go back to the other company. Fair enough, they paid for the 6 hours work and all is ok that way.
However, I received the logo the other company did today, as I need to print it on pens.
All the brand integration I added to the logo to make it identifiable with the company, all my ideas, right down to inserting the years in business - all stolen.
It's my logo I designed with a tacky rainbow stuck to the side of it.
Why did I take Friday off!? WHY?
Guess I still got paid, so not that bad. But not going in my portfolio... maybe the bit I did. But the other company is now taking credit for it. Sigh.
