Should I Go Back to be a Designer?

Didn’t go to work today as I have a ‘water bubble’ on my right butt… it grew too big and painful for me to ride

Oh well, I’ll just use today to catch up on some sleep that I have missed over the past 2 weeks from running so many late night orders while hoping my water bubble will be gone soon.

It is times like these where I felt like my age and body is unable to keep up with my mind… despite how strong will I am… despite how much I am willing to work hard and go without sleep mentally, my body just reacts oppositely and stopped me from working…

Guess I’ll just rest for today and sleep a bit more today…

But later around noon, I have gotten a call from Andy, from the freelance designer ad last Saturday:

I would say it was quite a good conversation over the phone. According to Andy, they are still a new company, hence they are looking for freelance interior designers for their projects without bearing the monthly salary cost of hiring one.

So they are offering 50% commission to designers, which could amount up to 2-3k per project based on a new BTO HDB.

Sounds not bad to me actually, especially when I’m still in the situation I need Cash to pay off my loans and bills and I can’t seek a full time job yet cause of my ex company project.

Should I go back to be an interior designer? Would I be able to design homes for others after leaving interior designing for almost a decade?

Well, frankly speaking I don’t have a choice.

Due to giving up my savings in order to keep my promise to you never to throw you away… due to the legal money lender loans I have been repaying ever since we parted for the past few months… due to lending friends money which till date I has not gotten most of it back yet… my credit card bills and past bank loans have been chalking up higher and higher with each month…

Guess I’ll arrange a time with an official interview with him soon at his studio.

Wish me luck, my dear Em Yeu…
