I always had to wonder why every graphic designer I have met is either borderline crazy, anal, argumentative or has just plain arsehole syndrome. I have today come to the conclusion. First of all you end studying something creative, but once you actually start your job you are there to constantly please people (non-designers who have no clue). So basically, if you want to be a designer – don't study design. Be the bystander. Also designing is having to submit to outlandish and ridiculous changes by those who don't know what gets put into it, or can not understand what the word “flat file” means. Personality type to study design – people pleasers. Don't study design if you are ambitious, unique or like to be creative. This is the wrong profession for you. You can start out as a prize winning person and turn out to become a complete drug addict, arsehole, or whatever bad name calling a person can find. Yes, designers are arseholes, with good damn reason. In the life of a designer.
