SteveAustin Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 when I first read advertising....I immediately thought of the v-dub ad..."eets definitely sucking." haha. anyway... Dumy...it all depends on what you want out of your creativity. If you're cool with pimping it out for advertising and making people buy shit they don't need...go for it. But, if you're the type that wants your creative work to actually stand for or mean something...get a job with a paycheck and work on the one creative thing that really matters to you.

dumy Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 that definitely makes sense Steve..I just want something where I can exercise my creativity (even if only to an extent) while earning that paycheck..I hate going to work everyday and hating it, or worse..lacking the motivation to even try because it disinterests me that much..

Quoted post My job bankrolls my creative pursuits.....seems like how 99% of artists do things these days. And when you get a good offer for something, don't be like these self-righteous nitwits and turn down a huge check from a corporation.

Overtime Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 You can make someone out to be racist, and then get their shit taken out by two of your friends, but I suppose there is no money in tha tor else you would be making it already..

villain Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Art in the US is more often than not about connections. It is nepotistic and self-serving, self perpetuating. They try to make you believe some artist, musician, product or whatever is "cool" and they advertise the shit out of it with their mad connections and they are making bank. It's not that they are per se, selling quality, they have such a stranglehold on culture ($$$) that they will pretty much market anything they think will make money (formulas).

dumy Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 oh god..I didn't make you out to be anything else than how you presented yourself..whatever dude, really I don't care..and I doubt my "friends" do either..they made their judgements of you based on THEIR interactions with you..contary to popular belief i'm not some puppet master pulling strings..plus i'm not one to blow spots on the internet...please stop letting people manipulate you..me and my friends are on some live and let live..but if you fuck with us we fuck with you..simple as that..

Tyler Durden Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Work for the railroad. The union for that shit is insane. Especially around here. You really have to "know someone" in it, but once you're in you're pretty much set. Conductors here pull down over $100,000 a year.... plus the benefits and all that shit? Forget it.... golden. Or get in with a freight company I guess? I dont know how to go about that though. Stable, good union, good pay, good retirement plans...

26SidedCube Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Being a tattoo artist is a great job idea, but not such a great career choice unless you plan on opening an upscale parlor in a major metropolitan area/college town with well-known artists that'll stick around until the gun shakes their knuckles arthritic. I'm sure there's a lot of people on this site that know a lot more about this shit than I do, but from what I've heard tattooing is the second 'kiss of death' career move, right next to Graphic Design.
