There is a time in our lives when we finally feel like we have ‘made it’ into something greater. I have been having problems landing a decent job since I have graduated from my University way back in 2008. I would like to consider that the year when everything went to hell, especially the job market.
Since then, I felt like Art jobs have been on the back-burner for companies. Countless application and several interview started to feel like a burden on my life. However I continued on and eventually I landed a job as a designer and marketing specialist at a local tshirt company here in St. Louis.
I am loving it so far, of course I have only been there two days. My first day consisted of building my desk and just giving help to people that needed it. Yes, that is right, a desk. My first job with my own desk. Then we ordered a Macintosh yesterday which should be sitting on my desk early next week.
Overall, I am excited to have finally ‘made it’ in the design world. To some, it may not be much, but to me it is everything I have been looking forward to. While I have been my own designer for over six years now, I am now officially a designer for someone other than myself. It feels good.
The Universe has a way of working things out.
Shooting for the stars,
Brandon
