    You know what I think..

    IT is not whether or not us designers are employable albeit their are a ton of hacks in our field. It is that we as designers are taken advantage of so early in our careers and pretty much become pretty burnt out by the whole thing. I think Andy's article is pretty much talking about business skills and not so much how to tolerate the bull shit we have to put up with in order to do great work. here's a beer for you out there struggling... beginners. To do great work you gotta find meaning in it for you that's the only key. And protect that meaning don't be handing it over to some clown vp who will get their lousy 15% bonus. Be protective and selfish of that. To do great work is to actually enjoy life and not just design.
