Showerthought: I took on work that rubbed me the wrong way for cash
A local shop wanted me to design their flyers, but they treat their staff poorly. I needed the money, so I did it, but it never felt good. Have you ever done a gig that made you uneasy just to pay the rent?

Oh man, my whole freelance career is built on that feeling. I once wrote ads for a brand that was maybe a little too into plastic glitter, you know? Told myself the cash was worth the moral glitter bomb.

How many small choices do we make that way just to keep things smooth?

It's the price we pay for quiet mornings (and peaceful dinners).
