We are faithful to our principles when working on projects, and we did not change them when developing our logo.
The first draft was born too quickly. There was an urgent project where it could be spotlighted:
It turned out to be as simple and variable as possible, assuming modification depending on the direction: design, web, typography, aerial photo and so on:
The project was a stand (development and printing of the layout, provision of equipment). It also revealed an obvious weakness of the solution — the strong similarity of the words "jab" and "job". It looks like we promoted a job search site:
Of course, it had to be redone. A couple of evenings and a revision appeared:

For a number of reasons, the task was somewhat broader than just coming up with a logo. It was necessary to place the name in its entirety. The desire for simplification led to a one-stroke version:

— Cute
The same option was pointed out by two more (out of the same two) respondents, chosen deliberately different: gender, lifestyle, views, etc.
The merch was rendered and the son of one of them unequivocally concluded that he wanted such a hoodie. The choice is made. Clean up the rough edges and the logo is ready:
