Does your boss happen to be an 8 year old?

I don't think it's fire worthy.. Fyl indeed.

Lucky you!...But seriously, in a creative industry that relies on networking you really should be following as many people as possible on your social networks.

As a storyboard artist, I can go show to show. I just recently got off of a character design project on the show Steven Universe.

That is so cool! Have you worked on The Amazing World of Gumball, Adventure Time or Teen Titans Go? THEY ARE MY FAVORITE!!!!!

I tend to stay away from Teen Titans Go! or Gumball. The artiste get the most attention. But I have worked on many episodes of Adventure Time. Mostly small though.

OP is amazing :O I'm lowkey fangirling

Welp, now the whole SU fandom's gonna be begging for spoilers.

Cartoon Network UK has already spoiled enough

When can Cartoon Network start reloading some older cartoons? I'd love to see the next generation of the Kids Next Door.

We've actually been considering an adult version of Kids Next Door. But with only about 2,000,000 out of the 5,000,000 signatures needed we can't start production. I have though, with others been chosen to work on the design of the characters.

It's about time you look for a new job. Man, your boss sounds like a crazy woman on her period.

For those saying it's harassment for him to do this, or he is a dick, why do you think my boss is male. I'm an animator/storyboard artist (Forgot to mention the animation part) I sick around at the CN HQ. This means this happened when Rebecca Sugar.

Oh well he's a human being before being a boss so there ain't nothing wrong with you treating him like one by feeling free and liberated around him on Twitter or whatever

Thank god I live in a country with employment laws.

Oh come on. Not everyone *has* Twitter and Instagram.
