To those of you who don't follow my twitter, this may come as a surprise.
I quit my part-time job after only 3 months. It was a toxic environment due to the owner's 17 year old daughter being presented as infallible. Fairly usual nepotism, until she saw me as a threat and lied about my quality of work, stole my tips, and falsified negative reviews against me.
The owners of course, "Have never known their daughter to lie."
Blind nepotism aside...
This is why my productivity has not been what it should be. I allowed them to overwork me because I genuinely loved the job and my other, non problematic coworkers.
The entire reason we were understaffed was because of said 17 year old tyrant chasing out several employees before me.
I've since removed myself from that hostile work environment-- it was impacting my mental and physical health. Most importantly, it was hurting my creative drive and leaving me with no time to work on art.
HusBeast and I have discussed the possibility of my working on art full time, and that's just what I'll be doing.
To those who are waiting on commissions, raffle prizes, or art trades, I thank you for your patience. I understand how it looks when every journal I write seems to have a new excuse, but thankfully I will be creating again soon.
I'm going to take a week or two to budget, clean, and make sure my life is in order before throwing myself back into it.
This means, unfortunately, it'll be slightly longer before I'm open for commissions. On the plus side, once I am able to focus solely on art I expect my productivity to skyrocket. <3 It will also give me the opportunity to work on some BIG projects I've got planned. ;D
Once again, thank you to everyone who has shown me support during all of this. Your patience and interest in my art is part of the reason I feel confident I can do this.
And now, since it's the 2nd week of the month...
