Yeah, it looked that way @world-travel-pro, but just before I went to bed, it looked like INS received 6000 bot votes and then the contest closed. A lot of people are calling NetCoins out for the entire listing opportunity as a scam to get thousands of email addresses. Really sucks.
The work is never ending, but that's a better problem to have than the early days of my career when I could almost never get hired. I reflect on that meme going around that says "Remember when you wanted what you currently have." That's given me some perspective. I'm stressed because I'm so overwhelmed but grateful to have this kind of job security.
I've been a professional photographer for 20 years. The first 10 we're just getting me to a point that I was a decent photographer. The last five are the only ones I'd really consider that I found my voice. Prior to this, I worked in a psychiatric hospital outside of Philly. Also a job that makes me appreciate what I do now.
