Maybe in your reality this is normal. In mine I would have been happy to get anything to build up professional experience at your age. |
Sorry Michele, maybe it is a side-effect of written word but your posts come across as accusatory and snide.
Surely you must understand that my request is quite innocent; I am not looking to make it rich, take anyone's job or get $100K plus holidays.
I suppose (I would hope) it is that the web is rather impersonal, but I would have thought that you would have enough respect for me not to talk down to me as you do.
For the record, but not to argue I have freelanced for a number of people, done work experience in one of the most notable web design companies in Ireland and worked internally in a networks company for an on-going, extended period with many projects.
I do realise that it is not the usual request you would expect from "A 17 year-old" but I also believe that self-promotion is the key to success.
