Sometimes life just sucks!

Afflict · Thu 09/03/2006 13:29:57

Awhile ago I met this girl that is going to work at a graphics design company.
(Well she did some "basic graphics course apparently... covering flash basics etc.)

Now I have to help her out all the time with flash and stuff action scripting etc.
This being sucky because I would kill to have her job and she doesnt even
know whats shes doing! IT SUCKS!

I hope her boss find all my emails and employs me!

Why don't you just go there and tell him all that you know (without putting her job at risk).

If you're so good, at least he will keep you in mind no?

But anyway, life sucks!

Afflict · Thu 09/03/2006 13:35:02

Ah you see now there is no way of doing that, it will just make her life harder as they have just emplyed her and then what if I come in there and do everything better?

And all my knowledge comes from what we all know to work best SELF STUDY and struggling for hours on end just to get something to work!

MMM maybe I should draw up a portfolio and email it to him?

I am deeply sorry that you are orphan, have lost a hand in an accident and gotta work 17 hours per day in the sulfur mines for 2 bucks, while your boss sexually abbusses of you... :'(

Oh Sorry! That isn't your case? That s when I thought when I read the topic.

Man, relax... if that little inconvenience makes "sometimes your life suck" you are going to be deeply unhappy for the rest of your life. Life sucks sometimes, sure... but not for this.

Yeah man but design is my life and well graphics design and flash I love! Wish I could land a job like that

It sucks thinking that someone is living my dream job and not knowing how to do it!

Nacho · Thu 09/03/2006 13:52:55

Impersonate her... Peruke, make-up...

Afflict · Thu 09/03/2006 13:56:07

Drag Is BACK

... uhh on the other hand no.

Thats funny I think I should just ask her to keep an eye open if there is any vacancies
then just to refer me to her boss. Other than that I should just get some titles behind my
name, in regards to flash and stuff..

Nikolas · Thu 09/03/2006 14:00:33

You know... if she's cute

there are other ways to benefit from her!

Tuomas · Thu 09/03/2006 14:52:31

I don't see the point... You don't have to work, you have a cute chick that takes care of all the expances, and if she doesn't, you can always demand her to do so since you do all the work. And you're getting some... How could it get better?

Dude, this is not something that makes life suck. You're upset because a friend of yours got a job that you would have wanted? So? She got the job so it's her job. Who are you to intrude in it? Why don't you get a job yourself from somewhere else? If the standards are so low, you shouldn't have a problem accomplishing that. I don't see your problem. Of course, I know nothing about you and if I misunderstood in some way, I apologize.

And tuomas, your hormones seem to be running wild lately

.

Afflict · Thu 09/03/2006 16:46:31

I agree with the hormones hehe

Ah dude I dealt with it now, just this help me here help me there crap! Got to me!
So bad I got sent the whole work file to fix!

sex her.

m0ds · Thu 09/03/2006 17:20:24

you really should have words with the bosses! She may love the job, but if she can't do it then she's not the right person for it! Sounds like she certainly sexed someone to get that position!!

Why does your life suck?

Is that the only job left in the universe? What if you just stopped helping her if it drains you out in some way. If she's hypocrite enough to burn her fuses and start tossing dirt on you for just saying you don't have all your time for her all the time she isn't worth anything. If she got to the job the fair way, but cannot do her job properly, yet still can keep the job, the employer isn't worth your effort, I'd say.

lo_res_man · Thu 09/03/2006 17:44:10

to quote a certain sideboard-ed cop "yeah well, life's a prostitute"

its too bad you have to help her on whats her own job, I think for her own good you should tell her boss, but be kind as you can about it.

Mr Flibble · Thu 09/03/2006 17:49:17

Dude, why work?
Live in the alley like the rest of us.

Or make a shareware adventure game!

Afflict · Thu 09/03/2006 22:07:23

Hehe shareware, adventure and then?

Grapefruitologist · Thu 09/03/2006 22:12:55

Maybe you could ask her to tell her boss about how good you are at graphics, and maybe he'd hire you.
Dunno. But try not to want the job so badly, there are more jobs.

Sometimes life just sucks!
