Over the last couple of weeks we’ve been asking you what you’re up to now that you’ve been laid off from your ad-job, and it’s really hard to find another one. To be sure, you’re not all laid off, but many of you are. Today we share a bit about Sally Rose, who was laid off from Boston based Modernista! in June.
She writes: “I was laid off back in June from Modernista! in Boston. It was my first job out of school. I was devastated. I did a lot of print work for GM! I loved working there.
So, I started painting again. I kept trying to get back into another agency. Now I am starting to feel like I am in college again. My creative is back to being my passion with having no client to please. I am really starting to be happy again. Art for Art!”
Sally tells us she has found gainful employment, and that her bills are getting paid. But what’s your story? E-mail us (and attach images like Sally did if your time is spent doing something visual) at matt@mediabistro.com to tell us what you’re up to.
