Re: What are your thoughts on being a Preditor?

Editors have always really been Preditors. Remember the old want ad's for an editor "We don't just want a button pusher". The best editors have always been preditors.

As technology has gotten cheaper it is the industry that has changed. Good enough has become the norm. If you can run the software you are an editor, but I need graphics and a script to. Yea can you do that great. Ohhhhh we can't afford to pay you more there is no money in the budget for that. Everyone wants more for less. The more we let ourselves get into that the worse the industry will get.

It is rare we find someone that can really do more than one job well. If you are that person make sure you get compensated for it. It is hard to get an employer to see your real value, but it is your job to sell it to them.
