Pissed

Round 1

So, last week I applied for a graphic design position at O'neil Surfboards, due to a reference I got from a lady at church. This position was for the Assistant Board Short Designer. I sent my resume and portfolio and then waited curiously for a reply. The next day, I recieved an email glorifying my nice designs and how much talent I have. The head designer was impressed at my portfolio, yet there was only one problem. A Degree. There was some miscommunication somewhere, and my referense was under the impression that I had my BA already. So basically they would have hired me, but they can't cuz I dont have a degree yet. Its like credit......its impossible.... you supposed to get credit by buying stuff with a credit card, but you cant get a credit caard without credit. Im supposed to have experience to get a job but I cant get a Job without experience. FRUSTRATED!!!!!

Round 2

So, also applied at C28/NOTW when I applied for O'Neil. Thoght I would give it a try considering I had all my portfolio together. Sent the email and never heard anything. Today, I got a call from them and they wanted me to come buy. To make a long story short, they loved my work (like O'Neil) but cant hire me becuse I cant work full time.

Conclusion

Im sick of being good enough to have a job but not getting because of stupid legistical things. Just want to take my designs and do someting for myself. Forget corporate!!!
