prepress

Digital artistic work, related to computer graphics. People who depends on the prepress business use to work more than 12 hours a day, and have to concentrate while hanging on the telephone, searching for misspeling text and fixing usual PDF file format documents errors done by amateurs.

It´s almost like a magazine writer, editor or jornalist, but you don´t get fun and don´t meet nice people while working. Could be compared to a trainee as well, but in the prepress market, you know that you won´t have a better payment nor a better life hope.
Maybe it´s a little better than slavery. Maybe.
Old friend 1.- Hey, man! So long we don´t speak! Are you already free from that nasty job you used to have at that prepress grphic company?

Old friend 2.- Err... well... no. Same o´, same o´...

old friend 1.- Well... at least you´ve got a job... but hey, look! It´s a flying sauce!
