Three cheers for Hockley

THE DM GROUP quarterly catch-up is a time for all of us to get together, talk about the work we’ve done and have more than a few drinks.
Now you’d assume a quarterly catch-up happens quarterly but it’s actually been 12 months since our previous catch-up.
That meant some of our more enthusiastic colleagues had 12 months of pent-up PowerPoint slides to get out of their system.
So to keep things moving, we had a strict five-minute time limit with the option to buy an extra minute with a shot.
While there are plenty in THE DM GROUP who love a chin wag, none more so than digital planning director, Craig Hockley.
Craig decided to buy two extra minutes before he even started speaking and ended up having to down a third shot by the end of his presentation.
See, we said he’d fit in.

Why does Craig have to sing every morning?
Because if he doesn’t sing his ‘Got me stuff’ song before he leaves home, he inevitably ends up forgetting something important.
Like his glasses.
Which he found very inconvenient today as he went about his usual senior art director business.
That’s why our ever helpful, handyman/production manager David Findlay made him a new pair.
Isn’t it amazing what you can do with just some pipe cleaners and duct tape?
One thing’s for sure, Craig will be singing every morning from now on.

Hey! We know that guy!
We met Wayne Sullivan in November last year when he came down from Queensland to join our valued client HOSTPLUS as national marketing programs manager.
We’re delighted to hear that Wayne has now been appointed executive manager, marketing.
Is it too soon to say ‘we knew him when…’?
Congratulations on your new role, Wayne. We’re looking forward to continuing to do great work with you.

In the swim of things
It’s been a dry summer in Melbourne.
But when the skies opened this afternoon we saw some interesting sights out the window.
Not that we spend a lot of time gazing out the window during work hours, of course.
Bravo to the three guys we spotted swimming – yes, swimming – down the flooded street at one point.
Rather you than us.
