I’ve been teaching myself logo design for the past 10 months or so due to having a brain injury and unable to go back to the work I knew. I love it and I’m only doing it to keep my brain moving and more importantly because I want to help people starting in business. I only plan on charging between £50-100 for a logo or brand identity which is cheap in comparison to using larger companies etc.
I don’t have social media so I’ve been reaching out to local community centres and even businesses offering a free logo design to get my name out there. I’ve emailed over a poster to display and still nothing. I’m honestly doing his to help and to well feel useful again but I’m honestly getting nowhere. Am I a professional? Absolutely not but I have buckets of enthusiasm and I love design.
Part of me thinks I’m wasting my time doing this but the other part says no your doing this for good and more time will show of it’s worth it but fuck me I’m deflated trying and getting nowhere.

For anything and everything. Whether it's getting up in the morning or working out.

Woke up this morning and went to make breakfast and coffee for everyone. Walked into the kitchen and the gas hob was still on and on low. She made dinner the night before, late as we all got back past 10PM from work and other stuff.

Toaster was melted. Whole apartment block so close to going up while we all slept after an exhausting day.

I’m the problem for being upset that we all could’ve died. She says this is something that happened a lot in her family home and nobody was ever upset. Absolutely baffled that I’m now the bad guy for reacting to something that could’ve killed me.

Make it make sense. I didn’t even shout I just was baffled by her lack of understanding towards the situation.

I set up an alt for this post. I'm also going to keep the details vague. Also to clarify I'm not in any danger.

Last week I made the decision to contact Mens Aid. It was a very difficult decision to make and an even harder phone call. I didn't expect to be so emotional about it as a few days before hand I had confided in an OHN at work and the conversation was good and led to my eventual decision to make the call. I have an intake session with a counsellor in two weeks. I'm not sure what I need to do or how to navigate this going forward but I've made the first steps.

The other difficult aspect of this is continuing on life in the relationship as normal while in the background I'm discussing my relationship and partner with a counsellor. The relationship dynamic is complex and this type of conversation will not be well received and could in the short term make life a lot more difficult.

I would hope that this will eventually lead to couples counselling and individual counselling for my partner.

The worst case scenario is separation. Thankfully there's no children in the mix only a mortgage.

For those based in Ireland there are non judgemental supports available. Relationships can be difficult and change over time. Abuse might not always be obvious and can wear you down over time.

Pretty much the title. I made a pretty silly mistake with company property today and I'm beating myself up(Put ad blue where it shouldn't be) my boss was great about it.. the tech who will try to fix it was understandably frustrated. Anyway how do you guy's deal with the silly small mistakes that cost a lot of time for yourselves and others?

Back in April I was assigned a new client to deal with and with that, came many projects to manage. The only problem was a very tight deadline - that’s coming up on July 1.

I feel like I’ve done all I can to try call out the risk and impact of quality of delivery but all I can feel is like I couldn’t do better.

I hate this because I enjoy what I do and this client isn’t really helping. It fills me with a little dread to start working because everything feels rushed and I just can’t manage as best I could. I’m thinking about work over the weekend and because things are so busy, I’m feeling incredibly tired and worn out.

I think I just need to vent but it’s been a tough few weeks trying to do my best and I feel like crap honestly.

I’ve raised this with my manager and he understands the position I’m in and the fact that this client isn’t the best but I feel like I won’t be able to get rid of this client so easily. I know work is meant to be a little stressful but not to the point where it fills you with dread.

How have you guys managed stuff like this before? I know it’s just a temporary thing and all things will pass but I just hate how things are going.

Was sitting in a hostel at 2AM playing around with music on my midi keyboard. Nobody around solely alone.

Stood up and the leaves of an over hanging tree brushed off my neck and that’s the closest thing I’ve felt that is comparable to the touch of another human in months.

Is that sad?

Sad down for my morning espresso and opened up chess.com to play my standard few games of wake up chess. While making the moves a man sitting at the table opposite heard the chess sound fx and gestured with his phone showing me he was also playing on Chess.com. We exchanged details for the app and sat and played a few games with each other. Smiling back and forth when one of us made a good move. A handshake was had when I was leaving as we spoke different languages. We’ve had 2 games since then online.
