Description
I'd take that job, seriously. Working anywhere beats being unemployed. At last count though, the average number of people applying FOR EVERY AVAILABLE JOB is at about six or seven. That means for every job I apply for (at least four a week, mind you!), I'm fighting against about six other people. It's nuts. Thank God I still have a house to live in and food to eat...I feel awful for those who don't.
Anyway, I thought I'd make this picture mostly because I saw a distinct similarity between Frankie and Shnitzel, both overworked in jobs they hate (menial labor). Then I thought to add the whole economic thing.
Frankie's head is too small though.
I need to work on that...Time: 5.5~ hrs

Of course Schnitzel cannot be understood normally without translation. Of course he spoke English for a brief period on an episode of Chowder when Truffles got that knob.

Well, everybody else can understand him.
Indeed, though he kind of freaked everybody out when he talked normally...wow, I miss Chowder now.

Indeed. Always remember that when you feel like complaining about your job.

Man, it sucks that the times are getting bad for everyone. ESPECIALLY college kids. (And others, of course.) It's bad already that it's hard to get into one, now you got to worry about money, food, housing, AND grades. My heart goes out for you, man. I certainly hope your situation changes soon.
Love the pic. It really does explain the frustrations of the characters. Though, for the most part, I don't think they really hate their job. They just dislike it when there is TOO much work, and are getting no appreciation. Love the poses, too. And as a fellow artist who draws Frankie, I can tell you that her head seems fine. ^_^ Everything is perfect.

Thanks for the warm comments. 
Yeah, you may be right. They don't necessarily HATE their jobs, but I can imagine them feeling like this on a regular basis.

That piece of information puts the drawing in an interesting perspective. The drawing is good enough in itself, though.

Why must you always point out minor flaws in your work at the end of every description that aren't even THERE?
Love that background though @_@.

Oh man, I'm sorry for read that but situation is really harder in here too, I had not freelancing for months! Well, at least I have more time for College but it's not so great at some point, can't afford money for my plans for now
By the way, Frankie's head is right, I think it fits better at that size,

Well dude, like the saying goes, "Misery loves company". It's a selfish way to think, but it makes me feel better to know that it's not just America who's hurting right now.

Yeah, your situation really sucks, you know!
