hand over that rabbit fur coat...

How long can I go on hating my job?
After being asked to design the new look and feel for our company, based on a package design I did for them that won an award, they suddenly didnt trust me after I did all the work and everyone loved it (lowly in house designer that i am) so they hired CoreBrand to look over it. All they did was take my work, add a horrible horizontal white bar, and fuck up my typography just enough to make it look horrible.

and thats the one my company is going with.

So now i have to redesign everything according to CoreBrand's standards..
all the work, none of the rewards considering I am disgusted by their version and would never show it in my portfolio.
They say that adding the horizontal bar between the logo and everything else on each piece makes the logo stand out. actually, it overbears the logo. makes the logo NOT stand out the way it did in my designs. The rule is this: divide the piece into 20 top to bottom. one of the units of 20 is the width of the bar. the logo and bar are on the top 1/3 of the piece. That makes the bar HUGE and it takes up way too much valuable space. The logo even has to be smaller than it normally would to fit everything in.

what morons.
trust me you assholes I went to a highly acclaimed art school and got a 4 year degree in design.
I know what I'm talking about.

need a new job.
this isn't worth it for 19 bucks an hour.
