Updates - Lost Job, Going to FWA
a year ago
Hi everyone,
I wanted to give some updates since it has been a good while since I posted anything.
I haven't really had spare money for commissions because my work has only given me 3 months of work in the past 9 or so months. To make matters worse, I was recently contacted and was told that the company I was doing contract work for is restructuring the department I worked at and is permanently terminating all their contract workers, meaning my job is now gone. On the plus side they are at least giving us severance payment, so while money will be tight I'm not in any financial danger or anything for the time being. But this does mean I have a lot of thinking to do to decide what I want to do next with my life. I was doing video game QA, but right now the video game industry is a burning ship so I think it'd be best if I either looked elsewhere or did something independent.
I still have a number of older commissioned I still need to upload, as well as a few inked ones I still need to color. I will try to get to that soon.
In other news, I am going to FWA in May! I've got some BIG plans for my suiting there, and I cannot wait to show it off!
Wishing everyone a great spring!

File for unemployment NOW

OP
I'm not eligible. I have to provide proof that I'm searching and applying for jobs, which I'm not doing.

We can help. There are easy ways to satisfy that job search requirement. Ways that take minutes each week from start to finish.

Then I'd be lying, because I'm not looking to search and apply right now.
