A little sketching is an exploration. A lot of sketching is a procrastination.

“Studying the computers”

Apparently, my four years of design education equate to “studying computers.” I suppose had I been born a decade ago I’d have “studied pencils.”

Right-handed.

iatrogenic (comparative more iatrogenic, superlative most iatrogenic)

1. (medicine, of a disease etc.) Induced by the words or actions of the physician.

     Another group argues that the diagnosis is being overused and that many of the diagnosed cases are iatrogenic, or unintentionally shaped or caused by the practitioner (Lilienfeld et al., 1999; Spanos, 1994). (boldface in original)

     
     

From Wikitionary, the free Dictionary

My peers and I are encouraged to attend a weekly panel of design professionals who talk about their work, the industry and employment in design. The Q&A period is usually pretty silent, likely for two reasons: uninterested attendees and uninteresting topics. Last Monday one of the few questions asked with this: ”How should we go about quitting a design job?”.

The same way you’d quit any job. You should be professional, courteous, expressive, and give plenty of notice. You should express clearly and unemotionally your reasons for leaving and make all efforts to leave on the best of terms.

My question is why isn’t this easy for everyone to answer? Anyone whose ever had a job should know this – it’s the same at a restaurant, a golf course, or literally any job. Even if you’ve never had a job in your life, all it takes is a little thought – three to seven minutes. It really isn’t rocket surgery.
