My job is pretty sweet. I get to make designs all day.

But I certainly wasnt expecting my creative directors to quit at the end of my first season. I had 2, a senior designer and his assistant. One was great (the assistant) and the other was stressful. The senior left first and then it was the assistant designer and a temp who was a former senior designer here a while ago who was great to work with.

Then the assistant left. Then the temp left at the begining of Jan.

Moving on to two new temp designers who don't really know wtf.

I don't really know wtf.

My manager is super awesome though and is helping me stay organized. But my deadline is coming up next Friday and I have like 40 artworks to create and I've had very little direction or feedback since Jan 1st.

I am not a creative or senior director. I'm an entry level graphic artist. I'm still learning tons about how fast I can go, what to do when, what to study for the trends, office politics and how to follow the calendars.

I have a giant knot in my right shoulder and it feels like its big its pulling on my collar bone. I'm stressed of course, but I've been more stressed out because of work before, so I'm handling it ok I think.

Because over all, currently I have a pretty nice job, a great girlfriend and a roof over my head (with lots of toys inside) and great family close by. The sun will come up tomorrow.
