"If I were you"

We failed to understand someone else's duties, tasks, responsibilities, whatever they are. We failed. We tend to belittle and underestimate someone else's job, just because we don't really understand what someone else is dealing with. Having said that, I think it's time to let them, let ourselves to try to understand our different tasks, different responsibilities, and learn to respect our jobs.

Have you ever felt like you really want to yell to those who underestimate your job, to put your shoes on them, just to let them know how hard, for example, it is to make a headline?

Being a copywriter, being somebody who writes and make lines, is really not easy. Anybody would easily say, "oh, she just writes. It's an easy peasy thing to do. I can do the same thing too." But the fact is, it's not that easy. Though I love being a copy writer and an author, it's not a job to belittled.

I respect my designers. I am very proud of them. Their skills and their passions to design. Why? Because I don't have such skills and passion. I wasn't born as a designer. I was born as a writer.

So why can't those people (not my designers, I love you, designers, hehehe), respect me as a copy writer? Respect my skills and passion? Why?

How about trying on my shoes?

If I were you, what would you do?
