I was talking with a women I use to go to school with a few minutes ago. She is in Florida on a project for a truck accident lawyer. She said he was a very strange person who wanted his office to have pictures of burning trucks all over it. She eventually talked him out of that idea and he now just has one from a case he won a few years ago. It has an article to go with it so it works.
As an interior designer my old classmate runs into many strange people. She said it’s really part of the job. She was one of 10 hires at her firm and after almost a year she is the only one left. The other girls decided they wanted to be decorations, not designers. They wanted to go into homes and choose furniture and fabric. Pretty much their goal was to be on HGTV as one of the crafty show host. I feel bad as they spent a good amount of money to get though school only to figure out they didn’t like it. Our school required an internship and even though mine was horrible there is still a good reason for it. You learn if your field is really something you want to go into. Schools that don’t require it to graduate leave you on your own to figure that out so if your looking into the interior design career I suggest contacting a designer and seeing if you can job shadow them for a day, just so you can see interior design is not like trading spaces or some of the other shows on TV. It’s much, much more.
