Dude, it was the worst thing ever. Big company got a contract from some American school book maunfacturer who wanted a CD Rom version of their books. An almost exact copy of their books done with Flash.
It was crappy and they kept changing their minds on what they wanted. Every bg or icon they were shown was in some way phallic and they loved being PC so we had to draw up bgs with kids in wheelchairs and such.
Terrible.

working on a farm one summer it was discovered that some of the animals had eaten 'wrong' food...
there was only one way to tell which ones...
so all the animals many shits had to be examined to see if it could be determined which ones had consumed the 'wrong' food...
wait a minute...
that may have been a dream...

I knew a nurse, who worked with the aged.
One of her roles was to 'digitally extract' poo from the rectums of poor folks who couldnt get it out themselves.
I like to remind myself of that whenever I get cocky and arrogant and feel like chucking a job in.

ahh, it's gotta be, to give it it's technical term-"Tightening Up'.
and anybody that's worked in huge, huge non-automated warehouse will know about.
it was a matter of un-stacking boxes and then restacking them again to see if you gain centimetres of space which could be A: arguably room for more boxes
or B: easier acces to the fire escape. yeah, tightening-up....a grand occupation...i now own that warehouse!! well, one like it anyway.

I had to put a clipping paths around 60+ images of sanitary ware for project we were doing for Ideal Standard and that was only last week!!
Worst job though in my school days was ironically, cleaning loads of f*cking Ideal Standard sanitary ware.

I am currently cutting out lots of pics of people for a catalogue... I'm doing some with clipping paths and some with channels to break up the monotony, though some need to be in paths.. I've been doing this since monday morning and am maybe half way through.

carver; is that warehouse where you store all your money or is it for your collection of lego birds and pelting paraphenalia??

Technically, I've never been a junior designer. I guess I went straight into the big-time.
As for the worst job ever, I did this telemarketing gig for two weeks when I was seventeen. Other than that, I've had some pretty damn cool jobs... Especially the one I'm in now.
God bless America.
