I feel your pain man, at my former job I was coordinator of digital photography and ended up being plotter operator for quite some time and doing a lot of bs work, the money sucked ass too.

this sucks so bad and is such a drain i can't even enjoy all chicago has to offer.
i'm literally 2 blocks from the taste of chicago and i just can't bring myself to walk over.
maybe i'm just not good with crowds.

be the master of your own destiny, kona!
after you puke from reading those words...eeww..wipe your chin!
Ok. In this past year I made a decision that I would no longer engage in work that didn't propel me in the direction I want to go. Everything I do has to be to that end.
If you put what you want out there in the universe, have intense focus, work hard and have faith you will get what you need.

(Jul 5 07, 09:09)almost 3 years ago i made the decision and left the job i had to go in the direction i wanted to go. i left that job because i was doing 90% banner ads and html emails.

k0na what happened to your last job? I thought you were happy there. Sorry if I've gone dark for a while and have missed copious threads about your sordid outfalling with the employment.

it really bothers me to have to complain about this, and i don't want to be a bitch about it, but fuck... i can't put any of this shit in my portfolio.
it's money yes but fuck me... they were asking for a designer with 6+ years experience... WHY!?!
