I've done some work on UX, marketing and product design for a startup for the past year and a half, but the moneys ran dry for the last few months. Tried applying for jobs but no fruition so far. Still optimistic, but I am realistic.
Alongside this I've worked as a chef *begrudgingly* to pay rent and bills etc.

I severely want out of chef work, so I've considered saving a good chunk of money to do a make or break year in freelancing.

Any advice from some of you established designers?

I started a full time in-house design job that pays extremely well. I barely have to work at all. This makes me very confused since I kept hearing stories of people working 60+ hr weeks as designers at ad agencies. I am not complaining, but I have this creeping irrational feeling that I’ll get fired for not working even though there’s nothing for me to do. Should i be making up projects or asking for more work? Or just chill out? I just feel very confused. Are a lot of full time jobs like this?
