Where's the vodka and/or Klonopin®?

Don't drink coffee, don't drive to work, I do my freelance work at the office and when i stay late it's usually until 2-3 in the morning
What's your job, again?
Jizz mop guy at Peepland.
Um, this is a misrepresentation. This isn't just graphic designers, this is all creatives. This sounds EXACTLY like my life...minus the freelance/ever finishing my book because I prefer sleep and mindless television much more...
Yeah, sounds like me... Except that I work as a illustrator and photomanipulator, but it's preeeeetty much the same
Yeah, pretty much. Minus the car ride and free lance work.
Notice there was never any time to run anything past proofreading, hence the schizophrenic styling of am/PM.
I have seen these type of graphic designs all over lately.
I like them, mostly; as an engineer I am partial to graphs, numbers, pretty pictures to get an idea across.
And that could be a generic graphic of a day in the life of a consulting engineer. Except I too am drawn in by internet blogs, TV, and the fact that I work out of my home. Boy is that a time suck for a procrastinator.
How is the pay for a jizz mop guy, do you supply your own tools? And where is this Peepland you talk about? Asking for a 'friend'.
"This is all creatives" makes me want to gnaw on a hammer.
But, then, I guess I'm not "a creative".
