Time for gratuitous swearing

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!
PRINTING A2 IN COLOUR AT SNAP IS FUCKING $20 A FUCKING SHEET
This makes my folio cost TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DOLLARS.

The alternative to TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DOLLARS is printing tomorrow.
At uni.
By noon.

I... I will not be finished by noon tomorrow.
I will be finished by 10-11pm on Thursday.

THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH HOURS.

FUCKING FUCK ON A STICK.

Good feeling is, needless to say, gone.

you could sticky tape multiple sheets of A4 together


or more realistically, can you print some that is finished off at uni by noon tomorrow and thus minimalise the cost of stuff you print later, or is it an all or nothing thing ?

break into some office with an A2 colour printer?

Haha! That would be super classy.
TECHNICALLY they can't penalise me for that. (Because they're not allowed to mark work based on what it is printed on, because that is placing more importance on the money spent rather than the work... It's worded rather more eloquently in the unit guide. BUT OF COURSE, it does matter!)

Yeah, once I calmed down a bit and thought about it I reailsed that this was entirely possible. :D Thanks!
Yay now I only have two sheets to go. Joy.

That would be pretty fun too. Trouble is it's pretty hard to tell a colour plotter from a black and white one. *tear*

So what's your entry-level salary like?

[bloodied-aura.livejournal.com]

$30k a year, or so I'm told.
Hilarious.
Once you get your Architect's license though (after two years) apparently it jumps to about $60-80. Thousand. I don't actually know how true this is, though.
I have received very mixed reports on how much architects earn. (Ranging from "lol nothing" to "buckets! *rolls around on a big pile of gold*") I think it depends on what kind of job you get and how hard you work.
