I have re-joined the ranks of the proletariat. That means I got a regular job. Monday through Friday, I am now a graphic artist at the Peninsula Daily News, our local newspaper. For those of you concerned about Susan’s “End of the World” post, this is what she was talking about. Her husband won’t be cooking and cleaning all the time anymore.
Me? I’m just happy to have a regular paycheck. I still have my freelance graphic art business and am working out of the home: that won’t change. But from 7 to 4, I am owned by the PDN.
Well, with any luck you won’t be emancipated from your wage slavery too soon. I am also glad to hear you will still be doing freelance work.
Well, the first week is almost done. I’ll probably get used to it, but right now, this working for a living is tough. I’m having to get used to being managed again, which I don’t enjoy. I’ve gotten very used to managing myself.
For what its worth I understand completely. Going from freelancer and contractor to Cubicle Farmer was similarily tough on me.
Congrats!
Roger
