No, recruiters.

I do not want to be part of a "challenging" team.

I'm in my mid-50s. I want to be part of a "mature" team, a "powerful" team with a large and well-managed "throughput", a "structured" team that knows how to use processes to quickly and accurately handle the Same Stuff Happens Every Week so that when someone else comes screaming in with their ass on fire babbling about something someone else broke and We Need To Document This Thing NOW NOW NOW, one or two of us can calmly turn from our current tasks, neatly and quickly handle La Emergencia, and calm the panicked person's heartrate without raising our own.

I'm old. Fuck "ambition". I just want a good paycheck and no dumbass "this REALLY could have been avoided" hasslepanic.

On jobs and self-worth

A job is a job, and we are the ones who bring meaning into our jobs.

Is it about building something for the greater good?

Is it about getting an award and the respect of everyone?

Is it about the salary we'll get to purchase the things we want?

For the longest time, I thought the job was my contribution to the world. It is a part of me, so the mistakes and the KPIs reached were all ME. My worth was based on my salary, and how people perceived me was based on how flashy my job title was. Everything was about work. I was busy, burnout, and feeling oh-so-important.

And then...

I got kids who needed me and asked for me. Now I'm questioning everything above. If those are true, why am I feeling so lost and taken advantage of?

Was the award worth all the overtime?

Was being the head worth all the mind space where I got ticked off with my kids asking for attention?

Is the 2 weeks off enough to compensate for my missed weekends?

There's a supervisor at my job who's super cute he's pretty tall and lanky. He's not that bright, but I don't mind tbh. He has a good smile, and those arms are just the right amount of hair :)

I'd love to see more of him, but I doubt I will.

This year's group of supervisors have been cute

I know I can't get with them, though

Probably won't have much art to post until I really Get To It. Shit's been rough. But you know

host: bachelor b - what would you say is your greatest weakness?

eito: oh gee, i suppose it would be my inability to form meaningful relationships and, in the off chance that i could, i disappear before things get too serious because i'm terrified of getting too close to someone and feel like i'm not worthy of love.

host: .....

eito: ......

host .... anyway, bachelor c, what about you?

[ethernalium]

2, 9, 27 for the artist ask game

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)

I had to look at previous drawings but I believe it's facing left. I wonder if it has to do with your dominant hand.

9. What are your file name conventions

Bold of you to assume I have any.

I do not have any when doing personal stuff so it goes like this, even in animations:

The ones in procreate are always "Untitled" or whatever the name is when you create a new file. If it's professional or workstuff then it goes like this:

LL3_P25 ( A comic sample)

LL_SCX_SHXX_LAYOUT/ROUGH/CLEANUP ( Animation shots, usually collaborations or studio work stuff)

LL3_COVER2 (Comic covers)

27. Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with

My current job doesn't do any drawing so I do not do any warmups for it, but if I do I like the ones where you draw gestures in 1 min or less for like 10 minutes, but I like doing them as fast as possible so I set them for at like 45 seconds per gesture.
