On Thursday, 2, December, 2021, whilst perusing the website of the Schweitzerhof Hotel in Luzern, Switzerland, I came across a misprint in the LOGOS section that granted unlimited permission to use the hotel's logo. I sent the hotel an email, but never heard back.
I began my career at the University of New Mexico Press where I spent four years under the tutelage of the then Associate Marketing Director (name with-held by request).
Eventually, I found my way to the Marketing Directorship of New Mexico Central Credit Union where I answered to the President.
Two weeks after I left the credit union I got a call inviting me to apply for the position of Marketing Director for Bank of America's office in Albuquerque. I declined, saying I'd leased a gallery and was now a full-time art dealer.
In 2009, I was working with the marketing firm Nakheel to complete the final details of an exhibit in Dubai. (Nakheel handled marketing of The Trees) I lost my working capital in the market crash of that year and subsequently closed my business.
Now, with death drawing nigh, I ask: What is my time worth? My billing rate of $350.00/hr USD now seems paltry.
What do YOU think would be just compensation from a five-star hotel with a history dating back nearly 100 years?
You'd think at least a Thank You might've been forthcoming.
