Each describes their own badly, below. We don't have a marketing team. We have Megan. Same goes for design, PM, engineering, and the dishwasher.
Decides things. Owns the calendar. Makes the coffee everyone politely says is fine. Has been known to call a meeting to plan another meeting.
Open WhatsApp. Pretend I'm about to send something important. Make a koffie. Forget the WhatsApp.
Has opinions on kerning. Stronger opinions on kerning at 4pm. Made every pixel you’ve looked at on this page. Will redesign this card the moment she sees it.
Default Slack avatars. Anything centred when it shouldn't be. Drop shadows that don't commit.
Reason the WhatsApp demo doesn’t sound like a robot reading a printout. Holds three cameras and a backup. Edits faster than the rest of us think.
Long b-roll. Three seconds is fine. We're not making a Nolan film, we're reminding you about braai.
Only one of us who actually finishes his taakies. Keeps the rest of us honest. Mild Notion habit. Probably already on his next sprint while you read this.
“This will take half a day.” (It will not take half a day.)
We start the day with one good koffie and one short standup. In that order.
Slack pings off after 17:00. Real emergencies go to WhatsApp. There are very few real emergencies.
We build for South Africans, in South Africa. Pretoria desks. Bloem fan-mail. Centurion biltong runs.
Optional. Mandatory if you’re in town. Vegetarian options exist, we’re not monsters.
★ If we ever build any of these, send us a polite e-mail reminding us we said we wouldn't. hello@taakie.co.za
