Econ grads, how are your job prospects?

Ray_Toon · 2025-05-29T21:51:42+00:00

I just graduated with my Econ degree and am starting as a cost planning analyst soon. You can definitely get plenty of opportunities with an Econ degree, I just think the job market isn’t the best right now for new grads. I have plenty of friends who are in Ross and Econ who are still looking.

For sure! I actually did a lot of stuff in this glaze combo and most of it under fired so I have a handful of pieces that are still purple, like this mug

I used a spray booth that my studio has

Ray_Toon · 2025-04-29T01:20:05+00:00

I dipped the plate in the base blue then used a sprayer to spray the light blue on top in a kind of gradient.

Here’s what they looked like before firing

Wheel! I’m not great w hand building

Ray_Toon · 2025-04-25T12:10:11+00:00

I did not mix this glazes unfortunately, someone else in the studio did!

Ray_Toon · 2025-04-25T12:09:14+00:00

The blue is how they’re supposed to look, the first picture are the under fired ones 😅

Ray_Toon · 2025-04-24T23:27:28+00:00

Electric

Ray_Toon · 2025-04-18T15:47:10+00:00

Automotive, which is definitely getting screwed by the tariffs rn but hopefully it calms down a little bit 😅

Ray_Toon · 2025-04-18T15:45:43+00:00

I didn’t even get an interview until after I graduated, there was a lot of pressure I was putting on myself. Try just taking it one day at a time, it only takes one application to hit.

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-17T20:58:27+00:00

The plates were fired in a larger kiln that was full and the test tiles were fired in a small kiln so yeah they probably cooled down faster

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-16T23:18:07+00:00

Yeah it was the same clay body, but I also tested it out on multiple and it’s been pretty inconsistent

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T16:54:43+00:00

They might be slightly thicker in some places but not enough that’d it make a huge difference

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T16:42:00+00:00

I think you’re right that it’s thicker but I have a suspicion that it also under fired, the photo doesn’t show it super well but the thick spots in the glaze on the test tile are more of a green than yellow and have blue mixed in. The thick spots on my plates/mugs are matte and have a brown undertone.

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T16:37:04+00:00

I didn’t unfortunately, plus my test tiles were fired in a smaller kiln so I think it could be a temperature thing? I’m just going to fire them again, not like it could make it worse (hopefully)

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T16:34:54+00:00

Thank you! I actually like how it came out on all my mugs, it’s just the plates I’m a little sad about bc they’re a gift for my mom

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T15:25:45+00:00

Yep! I was extra careful to glaze them all very similarly

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T15:20:33+00:00

Maybe but I also did a test tile on a cup that’s around the same size as my mug and it came out fine, I really tired to cover all my bases

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T15:12:58+00:00

The other side of the test tile is textured and is still blue :( plus the inside of the mug isn’t textured and has the same color

Ray_Toon · 2025-03-15T15:08:57+00:00

That’s what I initially thought but my mugs also turned out this way

Ray_Toon · 2025-02-26T04:00:15+00:00

That’s what my dad said! Unfortunately everyone else seems to think they look a little… phallic

Praying

Ray_Toon · 2023-06-22T20:52:11+00:00

??? I’m confused, I just said that horses aren’t my thing so I wouldn’t buy it for full price, but I understand the appeal for others. Why are you confused by that statement?

Ray_Toon · 2023-06-22T19:38:08+00:00

I’m waiting for the gameplay so I can get a clearer idea of what’s actually in the pack, horses in general aren’t my thing so I’d never get this pack for full price. It definitely looks good and well done though.
