Re: Questions about Question 7

I have not been put in this situation before, but I'm sure it's something every designer has thought about. People who work for a company have less choice about what assignments they work on. Depending on the size of the organization, they may be able to request an assignment they have a major problem with is given to someone else. Freelancers can more easily choose the work they take on, but several things factor in, such as they might really need the work and they don't want to get a reputation that they're hard to work with.

I agree with Elizabeth that any time you can separate yourself from the real meaning behind the work is best. If you are not totally opposed to something, but only confused about which way you lean, it is probably a good idea to take on an assignment to the best of your ability.
