    I'm in this position as well right now, but I just feel like I have so much at risk; basically my kids. If I was just supporting me+wifey and splitting the bills with my her I could almost care less about job security because I really don't need much money to live. But having kids, well that's a fuckin dynamic like none other. I fell like I'm risking their well being everytime I think about going to full time freelance. But I hate where I work. I really do. I'm learning nothing, going nowhere, there's only two of us designers there and I feel like a fucking production monkey because the person that owns the company is a really a P.R. manager, but she thinks that she's the end all be all Art Director and really she has no fucking clue what a grid, symmetry, typography and decent photography are about.

    • Tricky situation I feel for you. Not sure what to advise though. Might be worth busting your gut and trying to establish at least a few clients while your still at your jobADP
