Yes I agree to find employment in a traditionally creative field - sewing, scrapbooking etc is hard, but I think creativity is an aspect that is important and necessary in almost any field nowadays to succeed and move forward !Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377276479172112517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-20744792687435686832013-05-09T13:42:52.517+10:002013-05-09T13:42:52.517+10:00Thanks Patricia - you too!Thanks Patricia - you too!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377276479172112517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-64913653184249372332013-05-06T23:42:35.839+10:002013-05-06T23:42:35.839+10:00Oh what a lovely post..

My company has built a reputation on being local and having a personal touch. The project I just finished was basically auditing and correcting the same work that had been outsourced to Asia because the client didn't get the results they wanted and it was just too hard to communicate with the engineers doing the work there (not just language barrier, largely just the time difference!) Finding employment in a creative field can be very difficult because it's highly competitive and the things we love to do (scrapbooking, painting, crocheting, etc) don't typically lead to employment. Anyway, I'm definitely not trying to rain on your parade - I think that creativity is something that is lacking, especially with things like the internet where we just find solutions to our problems instead of coming up with something ourselves. Alright, I think that's enough of a rant for me! lol Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05872696136446409255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-80417335705828584012013-05-02T10:12:27.611+10:002013-05-02T10:12:27.611+10:00Good for you Tanya! - I do agree that creativity b...Good for you Tanya! - I do agree that creativity brings happiness!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377276479172112517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-75007511554657209392013-05-01T17:52:56.401+10:002013-05-01T17:52:56.401+10:00For me, creating something boosts my morale and ma...For me, creating something boosts my morale and makes me happy beyond boundaries!
