Aw man. I had to go back to my suck job this week after that lovely couple of weeks off. I’m still working 50 hours a week doing a job I hate and killing my already shitty vision staring at a screen all day (just like now!). I produce subpar work daily for marketing scumbags (not even art directors anymore) and watch all of my good ideas shot in the face and get watered down to what is deemed a more consumer-friendly level of mediocrity.

Oh Lord! Please don’t let me be misunderstood! I’m not afraid of hard work and I wouldn’t mind the ridiculous hours BUT I just know that there is no chance of advancement in my company and more importantly no way that what I’m ever doing will be great or creatively satisfying because it’s not MY work that anyone will ever see. I get jealous of everyone I see when I slip away to lunch, even if they are valley folk. I want to be one that hangs out at a coffeehouse at 3 o’clock on a weekday. Lucky Bastards. There is a YMCA behind my work where people with Yoga mats and not a care in the world drive Mercedes and BMWs. I assume they all married up while us poor suckers are color correcting Abe Vigoda. I wish I never had to go to the Valley unless I was visiting friends or going to IKEA.

Los Angeles (Proper) Employers: Please hire me. Seriously, dozens of things I could be doing right now at a world class level. Each day is a little bit of death.

Now that I’ve ruined your day and brought you down to my level; have some inspirado… 40 speeches in 2 minutes.
