The Multi-Task Guy Illustration

 “We have recently recruited a technically brilliant employee whose skills are indispensable. In his previous role as a self-managed employee with a large company, he was allowed free rein to do everything from his technical work to ordering supplies, customer service, giving quotes, and paying accounts. 

 While his new role requires him only to use his technical skills, he can’t stop taking on these extra tasks (for which there are suitably skilled staff), thus causing a great deal of tension. Despite many counseling sessions, he still appears not to understand his new role.”

 I put on this old 60’s suit and took photos of myself in the middle of the night to finish this illustration on time. The desk and the chair were scanned from an old catalog, but the other elements were just laying around my apartment.
