Thank Jebus for call centres

Hey, lookit, I gots me a blog!

People have been bugging me to show what I've been doing at school (NBCC Miramichi Animation & Graphics woooo!) so I thought a blog would be the easiest way. Plus Tara said I had to, and she's the boss of me.

First off I'd like to give thanks to all the call centres I ever worked at for giving me ample time to draw stupid little cartoons all day, and making me hate my life enough to finally get my ass back into school at the ripe old age of 34. And an extra special thanks to all the frustrated customers for providing an over-abundance of material to draw. I couldn't have made this stuff up if I tried.

And it wasn't just the customers. When I wasn't plotting a way to fake my own death, I was being "entertained" by socially retarded coworkers, inept management, and outdated, faulty equipment. I actually worked at a call centre where the PHONES DIDN'T WORK.











Then the greatest day of my life arrived:



Fast forward 6 months and I'm 3000 bucks in the hole and drawing pictures of mashed potatoes. Go figure.
