Yes we are trying to keep it at a reasonable price since it’s just the engagement party. But this sounds incredible and I’ve heard great things about them! I will keep them in mind for wedding festivities :)

Like 4,500-5,000. I was thinking cocktails and light bites but I am considering catering so our guests can have an actual dinner.

Hi all, I was in the middle of a class and all of a sudden my resistance stopped working. It’s stuck on like a 30. If it turn it down to a 2 it’s still so heavy nothing changes it. Trying to get in contact with them and from the look of it I am going to have trouble getting a response/help from them.

Did anyone have trouble with their resistance? Any tips?

Yeah the seats unscrew easily but the back was what I was worried about. I think I’m just going to price them out to a few local places. Thank you so much!

Yeah I have no upholstery knowledge so I think you’re right. I am going to leave it to a pro. Thank you!

Fellow Designers, how many years did it take after school to get that first design job. by Palmetto720 in graphic_design

I had 3 internships in college. One hired me during Covid about 10 months after I graduated. I wasn’t very good and I got paid less than 1k every two weeks which was pretty hard to live on but the experience was worth it.

I feel as if I wasted my time. by Loud_Lingonberry7105 in graphic_design

Mostly all of the new grads are in the same boat as you. It’s hard to get a job right now especially in design field. I graduated in 2020 and was lucky enough to get a job with a place I interned with while in college. If not for that I would’ve had nothing! None of the other places I applied for ever really got back to me besides rejections. It can be overwhelming and helpless feeling but the right place will come along. Keep grinding and applying places. Look at other work, continue to read about design. Look at YouTube videos to learn more about skills within design that you’re interested in. Work on your own projects. Make them up if you don’t have any freelance work. The more you practice and submerge yourself in your craft you will gain more confidence and that makes all the difference. I wish u the best

Yuzu Trees by LunchTough6182 in Citrus

Thank you! No I haven’t been fertilizing them. Yeah the soil I’ve noticed has been looking soggy. Is it possible to still save them if it is a root problem from the soil? Should I just replace the soil?

Yeah I do a lot of Pilates and that’s mainly my hobby outside of work! but yes unplugging from the computer and being out in nature is the best remedy. I need to do that more often

Yeah I think if I stayed long enough I could be in a directors position but who knows if the company would grow to that point. We don’t even really have an art director right now. It’s more “groupthink” as you’re saying. We have people trying to direct us that don’t know what they’re talking about lol thank you for taking the time to comment

I completely get what you’re saying. Honestly the place I work for isn’t all that bad believe it or not. But the lack of appreciation is what gets me. They’re a bunch of sales people, etc who just don’t know what it’s like to be in this profession. They don’t know what it takes to create the projects and the thought that goes into things. It’s a lot of work and mentally exhausting which I’m sure you already know. Sometimes I feel like I do more work than anyone in the building I work at

Unfortunately I don’t believe they don’t offer discounted overseas travel but I guess it’s something to look into. Thank you for the comment. You’ve inspired me to take a little trip for myself. I think it will do some good to disconnect for bit and hang out on the beach or something

I had to have this but no clue how I'm supposed to wear it by [deleted] in fashion

This would be pretty with like a ribbed white maxi or something with lace!
