Why do you do what you do? - GoFuckYourself.com

NBDesign · 09-25-2003, 10:26 AM

What do you do for a living and why? I mean really... what is it exactly that you do and why are you doing it?

is it because you like doing the job you do
is it the $$$
is it both...

What would you be doing if you had to choose another career?

Me... I am a designer/programmer... I do it because I love it...

Although after 7 years I am getting a bit burnt out... I wanted to get into adult because i thought it would be fun... I like shooting content... I wish i could hire someone for the design part of this since I am so burnt on design... but I guess that will come in time.

I never do anything for a buck... i have to like what I am doing or I cannot do it well..

I write and sell custom software, Why? because I'm good at it and its not boring at all. Speaking of which, this tread reminds me that I need to fix my sig.

I started with CGI/PERL... then went to ASP because my mainstream business clients were all on NT... now that I am getting into adult, i see that most people use PHP so I am starting to learn that...

Creating a model database for BLUSH Entertainment using PHP and is seems ok... not that hard... just use to certain functions with ASP and learning the php equalivalant is frustrating... I hate having to go tot he books for answers.... getting lazy in my old age lol....

Have your script sales been pretty good over the summer? Mine have dropped to about 1 sale a month from the 10-15 I was getting before. Just curious to see if anyone else was slow or is slow.

I started porn 5 years ago for fun, found I could make money at it, quit my day job and don't want to work for the man again, I LOVE being my on boss. Of course it is LOTS harder now than it was 5 years ago, if I was just starting out in porn today, I would keep my day job.

As for Scriptball Software, We have only recently started scripting for the adult industry, A few of our coders on the other hand have been in the adult industry for nearly 5 years but want no affiliation with their previous employers. Our designer has been in the adult industry for nearly 7 years as well, but hasn't gotten time to do his online portfolio yet.

Keep up with the PHP its sweet once you get the overall hang of it.

I am available to go out clubbing, pubbing or whatever any night of the week. I can enjoy life and at the same time make some money while doing so

Works well for me
