[Rant takeover, sorry R.]
Feeling like the perfect idiot to exploit.
Magically it happens that i get a "design job". Wow, can't fucking believe it, after 1 year designing, thinking instead of brainless coding.
So, we go thru all the phases required, content development, ideas brainstorming, and idea refinement. We have 1 idea for each project.
I'll take one project and starting from fri i start developing it.
And monday the concept is solid so it's time for storyboards.
11 hours in the office to do those drawings. But i'm happy, i don't care. I already knew that the dream won't last long, but hey, i got what i have been denied for a year and a half so i'll put all my effort in it. Then today, reality kicks in as usual. Gotta pause/hand to someone else the project because my services are reuqired elsewhere. Coding, brainless coding. Again. And please move your fucking ass cause we have 2 deadlines this week. No matter if the client didn't bother to provide any fucking asset he wanted on display. No matter if the designs are just half way there, and this will mean redoing at least 50% of the coding job after the client sees it.
Just code and shut the fuck up.
That design project, the concept is almost done. Dead sure tomorrow i'll find some time to at least finalize the storyboard in indesign and make it ready for client presentation. After all, that is why i'm still at work at 21:20. To get time to do that tomorrow. Somehow. And then, my time plan just says one thing.
Coding. No distractions allowed. No "most part of the day" spent thinking and do what I like and i'm good at.
Nope. Necessity calls. Coding. Until Xmas and prolly even further.
Or until i quit my job. I hate my job.
