That you didn't just sit on your ass

it means you were not sitting on your ass doing nothing

"Oh yeah, I worked on my art, *and here's my portfolio*"

Ambition*

As much as I favor brutal honesty when it's directed my way

for art, showing your art means more than a fancy degree

just like programming, shipped product is the only thing that means anything

There IS actually a charm in the corporate world in rephrasing a negative into a positive.

Stop dragging yourself down and cross the rope bridge, fucker

yup

There's also the fact they want a photoshop user. I never use that.

everyone's in the same boat in interviews, etc

so>

its a fucking art program

Plenty of random little things cross me off.

Have you used GIMP?

watch some videos

No I know how photoshop works. i detest it though.

its *the* industry standard, there's plenty of content for help

that is a bit different

Other programs are better, but they won't give a shit.

well that's just being pedantic

no u

You call that pedantic?

You little shit?

NO U

Jesus

what're we on about

NO U

You think they won't give a shit?

Scribb is having a nervous breakdown

If you KNOW HOW to use their program, that's enough.

If you can do better with your own

they care that the work gets done!

If I know anything

they don't care so long as the shit gets done. you could do it 90% in another program, then just port it to photoshop format to send to printing.

It's that "company policy" never bends.

When they give those requirements, it's so that they know they don't have to teach you how to do the job more than the guidelines.

they might just say photoshop because the last guy used it and its all they know

well

never know until you get to the interview
