The only stupid question is the one you have to ask twice because you didn't learn anything the first time you asked it. :D

I've done alot of things since I was a teenager, I've gotten bored with all of them.
The only things I've really gotten frustrated with are the ones where I had to do things the hard way because of low budgets when I know there's a much easier way to do them.

I could never give design up, I love it to much, but at the same time I wonder how I let it frustrate me so much. I suppose its like a child. (note to self, stop referring to design as a child, its kinda geeky)

I still have a lot to learn, but I honestly believe I have just found my creative spark, I am getting paid more for my jobs, and I understand things a lot better, but as always, technology doesn't always do as its told, so yeah, that is the time I want to hurl the PC through the window, but I guess that also comes from having almost zero patience with anything (I am actually surprised I have as much patience with design as I do).

I am looking forward to my future with design.. Honestly haha.

Well my works website is pathetic, it still uses frames and animated gifs and is the laughing stock of municipalities across the world. But recently the mayors office and council members have been hearing comments about how lousy it is, so it looks like my department will be taking it over instead of the library people that currently do it, which means I am going to like designing whether I want to or not. I could use a complete overhaul.

Pfft, office folks have it easy. :lol:

When I say do things the hard way, I mean digging fence post holes with something like this instead of the much easier and faster this.

Or using brush and roller on walls like this when you can easily finish twice as fast if you use an airless sprayer.

We tried that, but ended up needing to use alot more concrete which raised the cost of the project in the long run.

No I lied.
But that's actually why you shouldn't try it.

I am guessing the hole that would make, you would need about 18 concrete trucks, to fill it.. That would be one mighty strong fence post! :P

Well with the sugar sand here in Florida, you need a good amount of concrete.
