Hello, folks...
I've got word of a short-term emergency Mac trade magazine layout
assignment, located in the Newark, NJ area. It seems that the graphic
artist/desktop publisher had a sudden medical problem, leaving a 144
page magazine with only 122 pages laid out.
The editor estimates about two days of work - but it has to be soon -
Thursday/Friday, and/or over the weekend.
The editor promises a big fat payment, plus the possibility of recurring
future work.
Contact Joe Smith - 1-800-704-9443. Joe needs your help NOW.
Thanks,
Jim (don't contact me directly for info - I just told you everything I know!
Oh - and Joe Smith is a brother-in-law of a fellow I used to work with.
That I could tell you ;-)
