i need to find a mail room job at a building or company that only needs like, 20 minutes of work a few times a week
i won’t even charge i don’t care it’s 20 minutes 2-4 times a week i can spare that i love mail rooms i love mail equipment
preferably at a magazine owned and operated by someone with enough money to keep it going despite the fact that the only a handful of similarly eccentric weirdos read it
there needs to be more weirdo magazines
rich people are so goddamn boring
stop trying to overthrow countries stop guzzling tax dollars like you are drowning in a desert
start magazines that have maybe 1000 subscribers
focusing on incredibly niche subjects
that don’t take advertising, or do but only industry-specific so they are arguably content for the magazine (albeit light level)
i know what a blog is
we need more printed and mailed things
I imagine this magazine is run out of one large office, with the printers on the next floor down. They both insist on delivering things by hand instead of email.
I’m not going to get into how close this is to how the studio is run but it’s pretty damn close
Oh oh oh I would LOVE to run the print machines! I don’t want a job I just want to produce jobs. Pretty please?
I would look into your local copy shops. Not for a job, but many have DIY machines in addition to their full service offerings.
What you cannot produce yourself they will handle the end production. This is especially true for paper cutting.
Found this on the ol’ Tubes.
You will NOT be allowed to use an industrial paper cutter yourself in a copy shop (unless they wish to sued out of oblivion… immediately) but it’s usually just towards the back.
At Kinkos or similar, it’s typically $1-2 per cut, so extremely reasonable, and it is so very quickly, and that noise is simply. Divine.
“Here is a giant stack of papers I have designed that I would like to be cut down that would take me ages to do by hand.”
Hhzzzzzt.
“Here you are. Happens that fast. It took about as long to do as it takes someone to read this sentence.”
If you are local to Brandord, CT, there is a shop there that does letterpress printing workshops.
Letter press printing machines can be big and small and here is a convenient link to a small one and it’s just. It’s just so fun to look at. God I love printing almost as I love rambling and the moon knows I love rambling.
I love. Printing. And rambling. (About printing and other things).
Portland, Oregon has the Independent Publishing Resource Center, which not only has two of these giant paper cutters, they will let you use them whenever you want (if you take a training)!
They also have risographs, and letterpresses, and screenprinting which you can use whenever you want after training! I used my powers for good…..
