Designing websites is something of a lonesome job. It’s wonderful to make your own hours, but you do spend most of the day cooped up inside, with all of your co-workers also working online from their own homes.
So in the name of giving these lonely web designers a bit of a break, let’s delve into the…
Top Ten Reasons to Date a Web Designer
10- They’re always eager to get out of the house
If your special man or woman comes home after a hard day’s work and wants nothing more than to flop down on the couch, well, you can start to feel a little cooped up. When your special other stays home all day for a living, they’re sure to jump at any opportunity to take you out.
9- They’re creative… AND professional
Marrying an artist can be rough. They’re never really dedicated to their job, since it’s just holding them over until they get that novel published or their painting career takes off. With web design, you get all the fun of dating an artist with none of the worrying about whether or not you can make rent on minimum wage.
8- You only need one car
They don’t have to drive to work, so there’s no waiting for them to come home before you take a trip to the supermarket. Need to go somewhere? Fine, go!
7- It’s impossible for them to spend more time at work than at home
Nobody ever died wishing they’d spent more time at the office, except maybe a web designer, since their office is right at home. No need to worry about the love of your life being too dedicated to their job to give you the attention you need.
6- They make their own hours
…And this means that they always have time for you.
5- They’re tech savvy
Which usually means that your place will be decked out with all the coolest new gadgets and gear. HDTV set, full surround sound stereo, and their idea of the perfect birthday gift to get you is usually something fancy and expensive, like an iPhone. Speaking of which…
4- The money’s not bad
Some web designers can make a few grand, or more, from a single project. How many other jobs can you name that let you work from home and earn a small fortune from a week’s work?
3- Web designer’s don’t sleep
Making your own hours, for many, means staying up all night, which means that… well… you probably see where we’re going with this.
2- The other woman/man is a computer
Nothing is worse than finding out that you’re not the only one, so with a tech geek, you can skip the heartache and understand that your signifcant other is already in a committed relationship with their Macbook… but it’s an open relationship.
1- They do have a job
…And in this day and age, somebody with a job isn’t as easy to find as you might think!
