Here's pictures I intended to make posts from, but I didn't have time to.

Career
Warehouse Job




 I broke my nail while packing an order, lol. It's fast pace and I hurt. All of my muscles hurt, but I can already see my body transforming. I'm getting toned and I have a waist now!

In an earlier post I mentioned I probably won't make probation. It's fine, while it's great for weight loss/body toning, but at 44 years old I'm too old to be doing this kind of work for four days straight.

Graphic Design
Why do the shittiest clients have money? I've come to an agreement to accept a stipend for September to November. Basically I'm putting aside 10 hours a week to work on their shitty InDesign files. Whatever just pay me. Always do good work, because like these assholes, your client/boss will always come back to you. I know they dabbled with cheaper designers, but they got what they paid for 😂 In the end they came back, hahaha.

Considering how shitty the creative market is, I wish I had accepted that contract offer that was less money, but stable. UGH. 

Since I don't see a future in graphic design, I think I may jump to UI/UX design and seek out another full-time contract. Even that is competitive. 

What about illustration? LOL, I don't see a future in that either. I'll just continue doing it as a hobby.

Health
Covid
Here's my positive test fiveish days after my first test was positive. Damn Covid was annoying.



Hair
My hair is falling out. It's either:
A) Weight loss/nutritional related
B) Oxcarbazepine
C) Another ovarian cyst that is causing high DHT levels...AGAIN
D) Peri-menopause?

Whatever, I think I should just shave it all off and buy a blue wig similar to Britney Spears during her manic phase.

Ok, that's it. It's 3:16 am, and I need to shower since I'm dirty and all my muscles hurt.

I had to get a second job because the losses to my retirement, general savings and all around financial situation just sucks. Right now the U.S. creative industry is a dumpster fire on an epic scale. If you want to earn anything higher than $30 per hour doing design work right now good luck! Or if you do freelance (me), good luck on finding new clients. Each design job posting nets hundreds of job applicants (I saw one on LinkedIn that had over 1,000 applicants). FUCK THAT and FUCK GRAPHIC DESIGN.

Anyways, I got a job doing...warehousing. Yes, in addition to doing graphic design, I'm now a warehouse associate, lol. It's a great way to continue losing weight/get toned and get extra money for doing it 😆 I probably won't pass my probationary period (thank god, I hurt, a lot when I come home, lol), but it's ok, I can always do warehouse gig work for a nationwide logistics company. All I need is to work one shift per month and I'll remain active in the program. It's a great way to give myself some breathing room while I figure out my next steps in my shitty design career.

I promised this was supposed to be short, so in closing I'm just too physically tired to do much of anything working two fuckin jobs. A larger update is coming, just needed today to rest.
