yup! it doesn't help that your in L.A.
L.A. is filled with so many "so called" designers 80% of them are all crap!
I freelance and work part time at an L.A. newspaper and i'm so glad i have my freelance gigs, it's the only work that keeps me sane!
I've thought about getting out of L.A. and make use of my talent :)
Any designers in San Diego? How's the design scene out there?

Fulltime jobs? YEAH! I've been in Wash DC for almost a year now and there isn't nearly enough designers. I get an email every couple weeks from different companies wanting to know if i'm looking. Soooo glad I moved here.

The design field is over saturated, but fortunately most of them are crap.
