Jart is a graphic designer. He thinks that he is very trendy and hip. Jart has a funky style; his clothes are a bit different in the cut, design, and the colors. Jart's musical tastes are very trendy as he stays away from 'mainstream' music; Jart's not into the current hip-hop/rock, but more into classic/underground hip-hop, trance, house, and other rare music. Jart's differences makes him unique; and Jart uses such differences to set him a part from others, because not only dp his differences in his personality deviate him from the norm, but his skills/abilities are also in a 'class of their own' - or so that is what Jart believes. You see, the combination of good skills/abilities with his unique distinction from the norm makes Jart a 'gassed' individual, Jart thinks he knows much more than you, Jart believes that he is superior to you - and most times, hey, Jart could be right (that's sarcasm for you). You see, over the years Jart has been told how much his work is 'hot' and 'nice' and other accolades; thus Jart does not know how to handle adversity well; you see, Jart believes that any static with a client is not because Jart is doing something wrong, but because the client does not understand Jart's greatness.

I knew a Jart, he was definitely a Jart; to the 'T', from the tight pants, neon pink shoes w/ matching hat, MacBook Pro, and backpack. This Jart was commissioned to design an interface for my company, he was going to be well compensated for his work (he was), but this Jart was a Bitch - couldn't handle criticism, when we pointed out flaws in his work, he couldn't accept that he did anything wrong, but blamed the problem on us. Jart ducked meetings, lied about things, didn't write down our notes (even though we asked him too), and Jart avoided certain members of my group (including me) because we were too critical of his work. What killed me is that this Jart Bitch was being paid handsomely for work (Jart got paid consistently and on time), and yet he treated us like ... well, you know (Check the title of this piece). One of my associated blasted Jart in an introspective essay, a blast so hard that I felt sorry for Jart, and Jart is a bitch; in the fact that he treated us with dis-respect, and took us for fools.

In retrospect, I've learned some things about Jart; his behavior, movements, and other nuances. Jart's experience with us was not pleasant, but I don't know if Jart realized the error in his ways in his tight-ass pants and pink attire, but I do know that Jart will think twice again before he treats people like silly monkeys.

Peace Jart, Bitch.
