Does anybody else here curse the day they chose a conceptual degree over a business degree?
I've been unemployed for 6 months now and they're going to force me to get the first job that comes along.
Oh, and by the way...
Would you like me to supersize your shake and fries?

starbucks is where you should go, its a fortune 500 company and offers full health benefits for part-time employees, plus i think the salaries start at $10 per hour or something...you can do that, get benefits and still look for the kind of work that supports your creaativity...6months is too long...are you not working at all???

No one will employ you when you have a 1st class honors in fine art.
Thanks for the Starbucks tip. They're evil, but I like the coffee.

Applied for 8 jobs today. Mostly interactive media and Flash (I reckon I've come to enjoy actionscript programming)
The wierdest one was a post in the Netherlands teaching A.I. which I happened to write my thesis on.

I have an NVQ in fast food (no shit)
I don't want to go back to burger flipping either.

I'm leaving the Technical PM world for my own business world in the very near future. However, with that being said, my technical and marketing experience will vastly help me.
There's no real money in working for someone else, so all of you that do freelance are on to something, it just might take you a while to build up the clientele that will allow you to retire or get rich.
Maybe it's just about being your own boss too.

I wanna come to NY and work with you eddie!

i think europe is a different atmosphere in terms of creatives in business. try coming to the us. more companies are looking to employ people who understand how creativity can benefit them in the marketplace.

word up spence!!!!!
ru interested in becoming a product designer?
- spendogg0
Product design seems like a lot of fun (and pressure) - I am just projecting my feelings of needs for a change and more energy creatively. Too much business stuff make spendogg cranky
- edd-e0
yes the pressure is on 6 times a year as every other month is market week and that means a new collection must be designed from scratch...
the work is fantastic and creative and filled with sexy chicks!!! :D
lots of international travel for shopping trips and asia factory development.
salaries are also great if you can negotiate it, i have not seen the salaries in my industry have a end mark...so the possibilities are endless!!!
plus plus is seeing a person walking down the street wearing your product, its the best feeling ever!!!
come to nyc, work with me!!! lets make lots of money!!! rretire early!! and smoke this large blunt!!!!!
:)
