'Devoted' graphic designer refuses to take accountability for botched project, declaring: 'It's the customers who are at fault, not the design'

Working in graphic design means paying close attention to numerous small elements that come together to form a polished result. The manager in the story below is in complete shock. As a BigCo, OP is in charge of a few dozen agents. For quite some time, OP had been in need of a skilled graphic designer; therefore, when an opportunity arose and a qualified candidate was found, OP quickly hired her.

As a modest thank you for joining the company, OP provided the new graphic designer with access to fifteen computer screens and two enormous monitors. Naturally, none of this was necessary to complete the task at hand, but the company felt generous. Nevertheless, their goodwill and enthusiasm for the newest member quickly faded when the new graphic designer committed an awful misstep! Let's just say that, without giving too much away, OP came up with the ideal plan to exact revenge on the designer and settle the score!

Having said that, read the story below to find out how the new graphic designer made a mistake, how she strongly objects to taking the blame, and, well, how OP settles the score in the most amusing way imaginable!
