Been fired twice. In both situations, my ability was of far more greater worth and reach than the jobs' environment and management...but, I was young and hungry to make a "life"...and I was the kind of person who would find something that works and didn't bother to keep looking for better if it continued to work...but when you need to grow, sooner or later you won't like what you're doing or who you're working for.

So, in both, I was fired because deep down inside I knew I was and deserved better (first job) and I didn't have (or grew to lose) respect for my boss (second job) and in both that led to my making "don't give a fuck" mistakes and slacking off, which led to my firing.

Back then, in the early 90s, the times were different, the city was different, the market for my career was different and I had been doing steady hustles in doing work since being a sophomore in art college and continued doing freelancing even during my main jobs. If you crashed back then, the burn wasn't anywhere as bad as it would be today...and if you did your legwork, you could climb back as long as you kept focus. So thanks to the job board at school which I continuously worked like a crack fiend, I eventually got a new job, my current one. But there was about a two-and-a-half month dry spell before I got this that severely tested my limits. It was hard maintaining a single apartment lifestyle without a steady income, but...my hustles came through.
