There was a point where I was living out of a tac backpack, boots and stuff. Not too bad, but I definitely wish I had kept a lot of the books I purchased along the way.

keeping books is important, because once you buy a place you can start filling up your big ass library already. still i'm contemplating buying a kindle, especially for the browser-to-kindle function.

very skinny dude, sweaty, long crusty hair, some stuck to his face making him look like he had been whipped. he had that expression on his face.

The collection of my hobbies will soon include, if not already: skating, jiu-jitsu, the cello, and card modeling.

I am slowly beginning to realize that my desire to master a hobby is my way of substituting for the total lack of direction in a career.

but I am content, for now.

"The Illustrators Guide to Business

Intensive 11 week evening course taught by specialists that will give you the business skills to succeed as a professional illustrator"

Each "intensive" part is 2 hours long and in total costs about £400. Yeah, great idea on the part of the AOI... Those that need it won't be able to afford that much money! They commissioned a friend of mine once, paid her £450 for 50 portraits. Wankers.

I'm finishing up my internship and I realize that I haven't seen my elevator key in a while. It's not a keycard or anything, it's an actual key that locks/unlocks the floor. I think I used it once at the beginning of the summer and then stopped taking it home because I have no reason to be the first person there or the last to leave.

I look around and the key is nowhere to be found. It's my last week and the two head bosses (husband and wife, small firm) are gone on vacation. I tell the "executive assistant" / quasi HR lady and she tells me not to worry about it. She tells my supervisor who tells me to keep looking. Then the supervisor comes back and says "Try to find it, or [boss] says they'll deduct the cost of replacing the elevator lock and all the keys from your paycheck. If a convenience store lost its key they'd replace all the locks, it's a security thing."

I would pay for MY key, but I'm 99.9% sure it's illegal to dock pay for lost property unless it was willfully negligent. I also looked into it and the only way they can make deductions from my paycheck is if I sign an agreement that explicitly states the cost/steps/procedure for that specific lost item. Even then, deductions can't bring my wages down below minimum wage.

I'm also worried because I was supposed to have been paid on Friday and it hasn't been deposited yet. If they make illegal deductions from a payment I was supposed to have already received, I'll be very angry.

It sucks because a lost key is one of those "shit happens" things and I don't think it would make much of an impact on references since I was straightforward about it. Getting into a mess about labor laws and leaving on a bad note would be shitty. Fuck being an intern.
