Okay, I *really* need a favour.

[katster]

The catch is, you have to be in the SF Bay Area, preferably in the East Bay or San Francisco (those areas are slightly more easy for me to get to, I don't have a car and rely on public transportation.)

I need folks that are going to be willing to let somebody they barely know come in their house and watch them pour a box of cereal and be willing to withstand a barrage of questions about that and a few prototypes. Y'see, for a school project, my group is redesigning the cereal box, and I basically need to run through a list of interview questions and gauge reactions to our prototypes.

On the first iteration, I failed to do as many interviews as I should have, and I'm planning to show my fscking group that I can too do what I'm supposed to. And since I don't know that many folks around the area, I could really use the help. So if you're seeing this, and you're *not* in the Bay Area, can you pass it on to folks you know who *are* so that I can get this done. I'd love a diverse mix too, but at this point, I'll take what I can get. The interview itself shouldn't take more than half an hour.

Thanks in advance,

(PS: for general information, I didn't make the icon on this post. However, for the life of me, I can't remember who *did*, or I'd properly credit them.)

I'd be happy to help you out, provided that we can pin down a time. I live in SF, right by the Opera House and City Hall.

[katster.livejournal.com]

Sure. I have to pin down with my group about who gets the prototypes when, and when I know that, I'll be back in contact again. Probably tomorrow.

Thanks! :)

Okay, of Tuesday, Wednesday, or possibly Thursday nights works best for you? (I have a class until 5 PM all three days, so the earliest I could get to the City would be 6.)

Thanks again.

Wednesday night works best for me, preferably after 8:30. How does that sound for you?

[katster.livejournal.com]

I can do that.

Lemme know where exactly you're at, and I'll haul 'em all over. :)

[And if it doesn't, Friday's cool, 'cause I don't have to give the prototypes to another group member until four or so.]

You're welcome to come watch me pour cereal. I have specific annoyances with the boxes because of gimpy hands.

[katster.livejournal.com]

Sure, that'd be great. :)

I'll get back together with you on a time once I know when I can get ahold of the prototypes. :)

Which days (Tu, W, Th) would work best? It might have to be early evening (I get out of class at 5 all three nights, and then I'm reliant on public transportation.) I might be able to swing something earlier on Th, but I'd have to be back to school before 3:30 for class.

Thanks again.

Just now on #c:
[MurphyM] if katster should wander in, somebody let her know she needs to send her snail-mail addy to the callahans secret santa so she can be matched.

[katster.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I got it handled. :)
