Do you know this Twitter user? If not, I don't really see why to be bothered by him if he just randomly decided to block you.

Well I guess that's a different story, Maybe he did it to avoid all interactions on Twitter? He does seem to be on private mode.

Oh, thanks everyone! I didn't notice all of this. :winkgrin:

I told my boss I'm not agreeing to the contract, which went fine. I just agreed to do graphic design here and there on the side, and I'd come back to them for web development if needed when I show them more of my work. The studio job's going great, though it's pretty hilarious, because the first thing I was put on was rewriting the script for and recording voice actors for an English dub of a propaganda film for the Church of the Almighty God, an Asian cult religion which believes a Chinese woman living in New York is the second coming of Jesus, that the Jews are evil, and so on.
Master wrote:Bad stroke of luck there Ad, perhaps you could place any software installs on an external HDD in the future? Just to save yourself the process of having to redownload anything.
I just dump the User folder onto one of my million other 3 TB storage drives when I reinstall, so I still have the installers. My internet's blazing fast though so downloading things is half a snap.

Didn't notice the earlier messages either, but it's still great to hear that so far your overall experience with the studio job has been positive, I hope it continues to be that way.

- Absolute waste of an entire day
- Had a massive snowstorm since I live in the New England area, had the day off college, but got called into work
- Driving there was horrible, had to drive at like 10 miles per hour to make sure my car didn't skid
- Super frustrating work day, ended up overworking
- Come home to find my cat chewed the wires for my 4th pair of headphones, I tried hiding it behind my computer this time but he still found it somehow

After all this, I just went to sleep and here I am now. The sad part is I really can't think of a single positive, this was pretty much the entirety of my day.

+/- Had another job interview today, and I don't think I screwed up, but I don't think I excelled either.
+/- This one looks really interesting, and it's relevant to what I've been studying all these years
+ At the very least, I got this far, and I can learn from the experience
- I'm absolutely smashed, which doesn't do me any favours considering I've got an assignment to present tomorrow
