Design.
I would love to just sit around a be a designer. Don't have to worry about accounts, customer relations, money. I just want to design.
A creative director gig would be pretty swank as well.
Maybe advertising. Always been an interest.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but design is all about bullshit like customer relations, accounts and money. I have 3 years as a graphic designer, and as much as I would love for the job to be 100% design - 0% bullshit, it's really about 35% design - 65% bullshit.
Yeah I know.
That's why it's a
dream.
Ah, okay. Guess I should have profile checked. I just assumed you weren't a designer and hoping to be one.
Design can be fun, but I agree, all that other stuff gets in the way. I especially love when clients think they know more about design than you do. You know, since amateur designers
clearly know more than educated pros. Yet, they pay the bills, so pride gets swallowed and one must acquiesce to some really bad ideas at times. I swear I've made some brilliant designs, only to have them completely broken down and destroyed by know-nothing-know-it-all clients.
Okay, okay... not all clients are like that. But the ones that are just stand out.
