Thank you, it looks nice. On the addict thing, I know how you feel. Take two pills and call me in the morning.

I found a nice treatment for Mac addiction.  Not a total cure, but it'll definitely help bring down the symptoms dramatically.

Apply for a job with Apple.  Be strung along, all the way to a final interview, and let them fool you into thinking you're doing really well.  Then let them give you a crappy little form e-mail telling you they decided to go with some other people who "fit the needs of [their] business better."

Oh, and for best effect, let this happen to you after you've already been unemployed for seven months and counting.

Ohhhh, no no no.  I wasn't foolish enough to mention this website to them.    (http://smile.gif)    While many of the staff might secretly agree with it, it isn't "proper" or "professional" to express such feelings.

What sucks is that the job was a step down for me.  When you can't even get hired to a job that's "beneath" you, you have to wonder what's going on.

This was just a week after National Public Radio passed on me for a half-Web, half-writing/editing gig.  They liked everything, except that I didn't have any actual on-the-job writing experience (though I have a Journalism degree).  Since I felt fairly comfortable with the contact person at NPR, I even told her about this site, and she seemed to dig it.

Blah.  Employment's such a crock of shit.  I really should just marry my girlfriend in California, move out there, and live the Lebowski lifestyle in LA.  But I have a feeling she wouldn't be so hot on that being my reason for it.    (http://smile.gif)  

Wow, I've gotten awful personal now, haven't I?

THE BUMS LOST!

I'm going to Art School now and one of my friends is going into Graphic Design and Web Design. Anyway, I understand that because of the current ecconomin conditions that the market for artists is a bit shitty right now.

From the looks of it (the various tidbits around this site) you got good skills, perhapse you are a victim of the recession?

Whatever, that seems to be the general vibe around here, from both students and teachers.
