She's applying to med school. I'm in the process of applying to get a second degree, in biology. I'm finding out very quick that a degree in photography is, well... not great to have in the current economic environment.

I don't know, there is always a call for the arts. But you can never be to well backed up.

Yeah, it's unfortunate that employers think that designers are expendable. You can definitely tell when a company has gone the MS Word route over InDesign.

Import Alliance is going to be sah-weeeeet.

Oh, and turns out this job pays a solid 75% more than I thought it did. I paid all my credit cards off with one paycheck.

I like how all new job offerings for 'Graphic Design' want to pay you $7/hr, but you must be a master Web Designer as well as Graphic Design, and know some financial skills to book-keep, and have good customer service skills for sales. WTF is that.

Yeah, a lot of places are killing off their web design department and doubling up on their designers, it's total .
