Then change careers? Would that be the answer?
I'm in advertising, been in it for 15 years. I've had enough, things aren't what they use to be. It has become a slave industry. You don't get enough time to do stuff anymore. These tight deadlines are ludicrous and then they expect you to do award winning work.
I use to be a DTP operator, which was great a couple of years ago. This job description has been taken over by lazy people and all they want to do is disk work, nothing else. How boring. So I've manage to get myself an Art Director/Graphic Designer position in the same agency. Which was very exciting at first. Only problem, my Mac got downgraded. I've probably got the slowest computer in the agency. It's insane with these deadlines that we have, but no, DTP gets the fast Macs, cause they need it. Bull shit! All they do is disk, right? So why have these big super charged computers if Creative has to do all the work for them as well?
So I think it's time, time to relook my career. What, I don't know. Maybe I should do my Gr12 first, then I can look at studying for something else. What about interior design? What about photography? I don't know, but lets start at getting my Gr12 first.
