Know when to hold 'em.
It may have just dawned on me that I don't actually know how to do my job. I mean, I make it through the day alright, but I'm really not computer savy for having to work with html code and well, computers all the time. I get hot flashes when people come to me to resolve their own computer issues because honestly, I have no idea. I'm not a tech. We have a tech. Try there first. In fact, try there exclusively. You'll probably get better results and then I won't have to feel dumb for not knowing the answer to your dilema.
I have to say that usually, when programs are not doing what their suppossed to, even the tech guy has no idea why or how to fix. It almost makes me feel better that whenever I ask him a questions, he doesn't have a clue how to fix it. Almost. Maybe he just sucks at his job too.
Example: I am a graphic designer. This blog is lamely set up. (maybe just overall lame but lets be nice for now). I do not know how to fix it. In fact, me trying to fix it yesterday fucked it up so bad I had to find something else entirely to replace it with. I'd love to set it up with a fixed image and make it look all snazzy, but again, I have no idea how to do this. I dropped out of my Flash course because it wasn't required and I didn't need the credits. My bad. I just pray that print graphics don't become obsolete anytime soon. That would mean I become obsolete as well. Although if I could get myself some severence it would force me to find something else...although I'm pretty sure I'm REALLY bad at that so best to just leave things the way they are for now. I'm not ready to dive into a world of attempting to write a romance novel just yet.
