I’m not going to Portland.
Damn.
There’s two reasons:
1. immigration issues
Apparently they can only apply for a 1-EB Visa in march, which than takes 6 months to process meaning I won’t be able to get there before September 2009.
2. I don’t fit the company structure
I get this every time I’ve applied at a traditional agency. They basically [...]

Not going to Portland.

Some random stuff I did.
May 6, 2008
As ADF seemed to wonder too about what it is I do I thought I’d post some random stuff I did. This isn’t stuff that’s in my portfolio, it’s just little things I did.
