Yeah I love Mac OS. Granted I’m running an old version so who knows how the current OS is but I’m happy with what I have and probably won’t replace it for some time.

I used to work as a designer, the constant need to update my equipment to stay current with software made me leave the profession (not to mention adobes money grabbing bullshit). I can’t afford to spend a few grand every couple years just to freelance and have my income wildly fluctuate. Since I wasn’t able or willing to keep up with the expensive updates i quit entirely and now I’m too outdated in the software used these days to be hired even though I have all the theory and knowledge sitting in my brain.

The joys of being an American graduating into the 2008 recession and never getting a proper job that I studied for. Or having the pay expectations from employers who are used to hiring freelancers from third world countries and think indentured servant labor is acceptable over here. Fuck this country.
