Why do these companies think they can ABUSE designers like this? I'm applying to places in NYC. Who the fuck are they kidding? NO ONE can survive in NYC on a temp salary or "freelance" contract where they can terminate when at any moment.

if you don't have trust fund bux from your parents to prop you up then you should probably let go of the dream of living in a city like New York for now.

It's time to face the fact that this country is an oligarchy. If you're not from old money, you're fucked. Don't expect companies to have pity on you.

I should've mentioned i currently do work full time in NYC but looking for a more challenging position. currently work a design/codemonkey job

I just feel bad for these companies. I literally close the tab when I read these. They're alienating everyone with a full time job when they make temp positions. NO ONE would leave their job to work temp. Nobody. It's ridiculous.

Then, I just hope to god they become frustrated at the end of the day when they get all crappy applications because they're too wishywashy to offer a full-time.

What angers me the most about said companies is that they'll always keep their reputation intact and they will always have the upper hand and they will always be seen as a demigod and you always have to present yourself with humiliation, because they don't want 'ego people', but 'working people', aka slaves.

>they're too wishywashy to offer a full-time.
considering you are obviously newb-tier, most top agencies typically keep skeleton staff until a large project comes along. They wouldn't make enough money if they always have a full staff of talented designers on payroll. And they are more likely to hire a trusted freelancer full time than someone they've never worked with.

Freelancing is great way to survive in big cities, just get yourself into creative circle or similar and they can lineup short/long term work for you. Freelancing is more freedom than it is abuse, you shouldn't be so scared of it. After all, you will have to make the jump eventually if you want to move up and/or make more money.
