WTF?!?

Today my coworker, K., who I’ve quickly become friends with and care for, got canned. No two weeks notice, no severance. Not even ‘til the end of the week! It’s freaking Tuesday!

While I could tally a lengthy laundry list of ghetto, somewhat illegal, and downright idiotic things that have occurred at this company, I have to say that I am genuinely stunned. To just drop a dedicated employee like a rock with no notice is so low.

I’m sorry, K.! If there’s any justice in this world, you’ll someday be uber-successful and prosperous, and you’ll look back on this shitty day and laugh.

Working class hero

Hallelujah, hallelujah! Can I get some hands in the air?

After two grueling months, trudging around the streets with my portfolio, whoring myself out to whatever studio would let me in the door, I got me a design position in New York City.

Now I'll have a regular paycheck, structure, familiar environment, getting up early, staying late... wait a minute. Shit, now I wish I had taken advantage of some of my days and slacked off.
