WHERE ARE YOU? I MISS YA!

Join my gaaaaaaame

I absolutely did. My boss would tell me how I needed to cover shifts because "Ohhh, this person can't do it and it'd be so difficult for this person to get here in time, and yeah, you'll just have to take one for the team." Oh, will I? How about YOU get off your lazy a$$ and work, huh? He'd NEVER. I'm so glad to be out of there. Gross man.
Do it! :D Ohhh my gosh, I love birds. <3 I had a cockatiel for a few years but she died in November. I wrote a blog about it if you want to read it. And only five weeks after we found her when she flew away. :[ I LOVE the budgie icon!! SOOOO CUTE! Amazing. AHAHA BADGIE. No it was amazing. Great joke. x) I LOVE DAD JOKES. THEY ARE MY FAV.

Oh my gosh, that's so frustrated and yes, very terribly rude. I think a lot of people do that--get partial payment at the start and then maybe even pay a bit more halfway through (and you show them the progress) and then the rest afterwards. It's just manners to not back out, you know. Yeah, that was very smart of you not to show her the finished piece! x__x Sad, but you can't trust people who do that sort of thing.

Yeah, that's very good. Ew, people who PRETEND to care are the worst. Like, really sociopathic qualities. x__x My boss was like that which was why I quit. They feign care and then manipulate you into doing stuff you don't want to do "for the good of the team." Hm, if you cared about me, you wouldn't be asking me to do things I don't want to do! Stupido! O:< OH MY GOSH yes, understaffed places are THE WORST. My work was like that too, and so is my girlfriend's. Just terrible. >.< She sounds like a really terrible human being.

Oh I'm sure you'll do well. Make a thread here and share some of your art! :D Best of luck. <3 It is scary in the freelance world. You seem to know what you're doing though. :D

I FOUND IT :D

It got bent a little though. Ugh. T_T

Ah, really? That is so awesome! <3 I'm glad I could help out so much by doing something so simple. <3 Tbh it's a beautiful painting and I was over here like, "Hey how cool would it be to buy a physical art piece from a friend omg 8D "

Oh, what happened with your job? Speaking of jobs, I guess my job life, so to speak, has been kinda weird, too. I quit my job I had been doing for 3 years because it was too far away from home and I wasn't making enough. So I worked at this farm store down the road...

Long story short I got into a slight affair with a co-worker. X_x On the same day he broke it off with me because he was paranoid that people were suspicious or something, I was let go from the job for being short on my cash till too often. So...I guess that termination was a blessing in disguise xD The whole thing still messed me up for a while though and I was out of a job for a month. I have a pretty nice job now working as a customer service rep but to be completely honest I think I'm still paying for that one month in which I had no income. D:

That's basically how my life has been xD It has been very...interesting. I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU SEEM TO BE DOING SO WELL! *TACKLE HUG*

OMG ARIEL WHEN DID YOU GET HERE <3 I still have that Ducklett I bought from you (obvs)...still haven't gotten to frame it xD

HOW HAVE YOU BEEEENNNN

I know the feels. x__x I have been trying to get a job lately too. Honestly I should be trying harder, but it's so tough out there. Ugh. Best of luck! Your former employers sound horrible. x__x And hey, have you gotten many commissions and freelance stuff?! O: That art world looks super tough, too. :c But you're amazing so I'm sure you'll do well. :3

ERMAHGERDDDD!!!!!!!!! Gurl how are YOU?! I haven't heard from you in--oh, it's only been a year and a half? I feel like it's been FIFTEEN. XD I'm quite well! A little directionless in life but well. ^^ How are you?!?!
