Darn, if the commute wasn't so far I'd be interested... for that salary. And totally qualified. Care to move to WA state?

No kidding. Finally, a business paying an experienced designer what they're really worth.
I had to get out of the industry after it was evident $20/hr was the maximum pay rate. Now that's Taco Bell!

Lol not yet. Let me know if you know anybody else who may be looking.

Lead Graphic Designer must be pleasing to the eyes, sorry girls.

 

[JBurton]

Oversee Design for our entire organization.

Not going to say the pay isn't worth it, but this makes me think you're after a full blown manager so the boss can put his feet up. I'd at least list it as production manager if looking on places like indeed.

What's the cost of living like in Phoenix, AZ? I'm currently on the outskirts of the Atlanta Metro area where it used to be less expensive to live - especially from CT where I was living before I moved to GA.

2 problems
1. Arizona, not looking to move
2. Adobe. Hate it! Yes, I have it & Flexi too. CoreDRAW is way faster!

What about the higher temperature? Like 180 flippin' degrees!
It's a 'dry heat'.

You can make grilled cheese sammiches on the hood of your car for lunch

 

[Johnny Best]

Why wouldn’t you just go inside with the AC and cook on the stove.

 

[DL Signs]

That takes all the fun out...

The fun is when you use someone else:s car hood To cook it.
