Ha!! Was that the time when they started to pester you about getting a phone center job? Yeeeah that's about how I felt, except it was just Waldek... I almost lost it! I started to defend myself and got worked up, and in the end I felt like I would just burst into tears too! :(

Thanks! I'm really hoping I'll find something soon... I found a few freelance jobs, but those are slow too these days, as every designer on the planet immediately responds to any offer... SIIIGH... But I did design business cards in exchange for a 90 minute massage at the Green Room in Palo Alto, and a poster for a pub in exchange for a case of beer - but that was a Polish pub, so Albert's dad gets the beer... :)
