Today, I was let go from my dream job for requesting Photoshop as well as Illustrator. I was hired to create marketing materials. Guess I should have just used Paint. FML

Most companies want the work to be done quickly and efficiently but don't want to pay for the tools to properly do them! Don't tolerate cheap companies like that, find the one that gives you the proper tools to do your job properly! I have faith in you and good luck!

Well screw them. Let their marketing be trash stick figures drawn by idiots. Don't waste your talents/skills on them. I'm sure someone as professional as you will easily get the job at a better nicer company.

What could you have possibly done with those programs that you couldn't use with cardboard and crayons??? But seriously though, keep looking. If they're that stupid to expect miracles without giving you any tools, that's on them.

It's a little late now but use GIMP it's free and does about the same thing...

Use GIMP (basically the same as PS but free) or Paint.NET (less advanced but still better than Paint and still free)

Little late now, but in spite of paying such high amount of money, I'm inclined to using Adobe Photoshop Portable. It's free.

You get what you pay for in a lot of circumstances and this company is about to find that out the hard way.

I would not be allowed to load pirated software or even my own software onto a company computer. Any software loaded would require an administrator password, which only IT has.
