Freelancin’ (mistakes)

via popurls
My first steps down this whole graphic design-type road were a string of desktop publishing-type jobs supplemented by freelance work. Later, I worked as a production artist-type at Huge Financial Institution of America (a pseudonym) and freelanced. Now, I devote my work week to the UC and when I’m at home—no freelance.

Why not? 1. I don’t want to. 2. I don’t have to. 3. You can’t make me.

I was never entirely happy performing freelance work. I just didn’t have the temperament for it. My Top 5 Biggest Freelance Mistakes from freelancefolder.com pretty much sums up why 4. I suck as a freelancer.
