sad thing is: soon as an individual knows the bare essentials, they are classified as an IT person, or computer technician. personally i loath it, when all you want to do is your job, finding yourself maintaining and keeping care of other people cpu's and network sucks! prolly the best thing you can do is play ignorant, and be oblivious to the surrounding technology. keep pluggin away at your typeface, and the companies website that you cant bare to donate an ounce of creativity to. (well its not exactly like that, you gotta get past the phase of thinking that this one piece of work is going to stop the world in its trax). anyways, fuck being the techy and get back to your roots of being creative, and vice versa
(damn i'm being neutral ;)

just say these words "ok listen idiots for I shall say this once - Van Gogh was indeed a painter, that doesn't mean he dresses in overalls and whitewashes your smoke stained bedroom walls with a roller after your son set fire to you as you slept"
that outta sink in.

My mother asked me once to teach her webdesign (while I was still working as a webdesigner and had a higher salary than her).
But I wasn't done teaching her the difference between Word and Windows yet...
