  • The problem isn’t so much the work, it’s more the culture surrounding the work. most designers don’t have a problem doing boring shit, boring shit is fine, it gets the bills paid, I don’t have to think, whatever. There’s this whole hyper-competitive attitude around the whole industry, and everyone is a critic. You have to establish an whole “designer persona”. Are you in on the trends? What’s in and what’s out? Are you falling behind? Are you a true creative, or just another dolt who thought they could make it?
