Hi, I'm duck and I'm a prepress worker. I've tried to get help, but I keep ending up back in front of the monitor.

At first it was just some simple pasting of type on artboards, but pretty soon I was messing with platemaking and proofing. Of course that only led to stripping, and eventualy to the hard stuff - digital prepress. I hit rock bottom in July when I came back to work at Glendale Printing - the place that laid me off 2 years ago.

I'm currently working on my 3 step plan to stop doing prepress completely. My self employment goal is not getting off the ground as fast as I'd hoped, but I'm sticking with it. It won't be easy, but someday I hope to be free of the bonds of prepress forever.

Thank you PPF for being there - as my crutch - during these difficult years. <sniff> I'm getting all choked up - sorry...
