Parts of Sherbourne are unnerving. I don’t stop at reds bc I’m legit afraid, and I’m not afraid of much. I’d rather take my chances than be stopped at corner. Or mostly I avoid that stretch of Sherbourne all together. I wouldn’t judge your coworker to harshly, maybe ask what route they are riding?

I literally #design all day long for my job, #productdesign, #UX #UI, web, mobile, creative illustrations

And yet I have been sitting here staring at the "hello word" on my own website for close to an hour, oscillating between using a theme & should I freestyle

I did make this for fun though

Partly its because my Toronto rent is so, so, so high (for a teeny tiny, old place with nothing) and EI will be so, so, so little...

Its just not going to be good. The whole situation in Canada is a mess, it makes me sad.

Its a crazy time, companies keep making disgusting amounts of money while workers can barely manager. I'm feeling french revolution vibes but maybe that is just me haha.

And thank you ☺️

OMG 17 months, I am so sorry. This is really scary, I will be homeless in a couple months if I don't find something.

And I get you, the layoff cycles are so bad and too frequent. You can never really get ahead, any progress made while working is wiped out when you are not working.

This job market is soul crushing. Unlike anything I’ve been through before & I’ve been through several full on crashes in the past
I’m really scared.

Also congrats on the work πŸ‘πŸ½

After just returning from Paris & London, I vote PARKS!! Green space, with running & walking trails, trees, maybe even a sultry statue or two. Like nice ones, not of some political blowhard, but like real art.

So does anyone know, are there any #European or #UK countries that are interested in #hiring a highly skilled, overly educated #Canadian with a vast array of experience in tech, comms, running projects, managing things πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Because I am open to relocating!

I'm working on re-doing my portfolio today, adding my most recent work, rebuilding it with DIVI I think.

This is most recent project, I did pretty much all the PD, illustrations, content, except actually build it.

I've been in Product Design/UX for the last 4.5 years, have also worked at companies doing pm work, QA testing, account mngt, PR & Communications.

I would love to stay the course in my field, but I know very senior ppl, much more talented than me, out of work for a year 😬🫣 I'm a little scared.

Self indulgent selfie!

Who needs a new job, this girl needs a new job!

Lets hope some of the stimulus in the #Canadian budget will help. Because as it is, my current job is going away December 1st. Poof, gone... no more money.

Also, I am really loving my Paris blouse and my Paris perfume 🫢

Omg don’t get me started. So many Canadians are facing really challenging circumstances with affordability, career limitations due to economics they didn’t create & these twats are carrying on like our government sessions are high school, drama club productions.

Literally wasting our time & money.

I want to go back with a better camera and really wander.
(My iPhone 14 pro max takes awful photos, c'est merde. My iPhone 5 took better, clearer photos.)

I was lucky with good weather when I was there too, for Nov.
So really easy to walk around. Great city.

Every sandwich shop in DC has a duty to create a sandwich called the "Acquittal" or the "S.Charles Dunn"

Thank you. I think it was a fluke really.
London is fun to photograph, lots to capture.
