and i was fired again. this time its for good. i could care less about going back to my job. i tried making things work, but my exboss can't get over whatever his hangups and his insecurities are. i was doing a good 90% of the work, but for some reason i was "bringing the company down". the thing that sucks is i had no warning and now i need to find a new way of paying the bills. luckily my main expenses are rent and car bills. no credit cards. and most likely my toy buying will be tightened way up. so if anyone out there wants to hire a good freelance designer feel free to hit me up.
Fuck'em! Good luck find a new job, but like I told Carl, if you have the opportunity take some time out for yourself, coz I'm sure you'll be busting hump again soon.
Good luck on the hunt for a new job. It sucks that you got no warning, but it also sounds like you're better off without that wacky boss in your life.
If you want to move out to Colorado, I know my agency is hiring designers.... that is if you want to work on Beer, Snowmobiles, Diapers and Tampons.
i've worked on beer, retards, porn.. my only thing is is that i am vegan and i don't think i could bring myself to work on anything that would conflict with that.
We don't do anything with meat, leather, dairy and our company just went Green. Here is our current client list: * Coors Brewing Company * Denver Art Museum * Dex Media, Inc. * Duracell * Fresh Express * Hewlett-Packard * Kiwi * Marsico Mutual Funds * Polaris Industries * Procter & Gamble * VISA * Wells Fargo * White Wave
ooppss.... sorry about that. I don't personally work on that client. Just the beer stuff. Good luck finding something.
thanks dude. the thing that sucks is that i really enjoyed doing what i did, just not who i did it for. and even though i din't like where i worked i never let it affect the quality of what i did.
aw scott, that's a bummer. but i know that you c ould be doing way more interesting things than porn. I think your skills were under-used airbrushing out cellulite on skanks. haha. you will do fine...i hear rents are cheaper on the east coast.
Didn't you win 2 AVN awards for your design work? If so, I would figure you would be a very valuable asset for your company, especially if that is your company's principal field of business if you are a vegan, Colorado is ideal
didn't win any, but i was nominated for 3 this past year and 2 the previous year. and when nominations come out this november i am sure there will be a couple more, unless of course they really screw up the packaging that i was working on before i was let go. and missy, the east coast is looking better and better to me these days. and i'll never live in denver because denver thinks it is ok to steal people's pets and execute them. they should hire michael vick as an ambassador for the city. fuck that.
that sucks Scott. sorry to hear it. i know it's hard to do, but like Moto was saying, take a bit of time to relax and enjoy yourself. you will be back at it working hard in no time. dude, if you moved to the east coast, Cali would be one less cooler....
Sorry about the bad news Scott. Your design skills seem solid with the cover design. I would think that there would be other "studios" out there that could use your skills. Freelance?
Not sure what you are talking about there........... I have pets, they are in Denver and it would not be ok to steal and execute them........... (I would like to see the CRS on that law.) Denver is not as Vegan as Boulder. Boulder is the capitol of Liberals, pot smokers and animal lovers. So if you love the left, Boulder is the place for you.
Hey watch your mouth !!! I can understand the bad talk about customs , but I will be damed it you disrespect DD like that !!!!
If it weren't for Dunkin' Donuts where would crazy people smoke cigarettes at 4am? Not sure, but I think HMS was talking about Denver's stupid anti-pitbull law.
