I have an assignment for school in which i need to conduct interviews (they can be through forums). I am researching a career option and have chosen to do Interior Decorating as i aspire to be one. If anybody is an Interior Decorator it would be highly appreciated if you could answer a few questions that i have about the industry.

THANK YOU :)

1. What training did you complete in order to enter this profession?
I.e. uni, work experience, tafe….

2. How did you get into Interior Decorating and was it hard to break into the industry?

3. Is the role of Interior Decorator/ Designer demanding?

4. What is the research process like when creating a room?
Is there a lot of research for factors such as function and current trends….

5. Essentially what does an Interior Decorator do?

6. When decorating a room, where do you gather your inspiration from?

7. As an Interior Decorator, are you involved at all with the construction of a room or with moving furniture?

Kibera, Kenya… eminent domain… Obama's homelessness prevention… doesn't anybody get the connection?

Nobody knows what the "homelessness prevention" program is. We just know that our city has received billions of dollars from Obama’s trillion dollar stimulus to fund it.

The Kibera project involves moving the poor into public housing and DEMOLISHING THEIR HOMES.

The excuse given is that their homes are "shabby" construction, "shacks," a "public hazard," and so on.

Oh, my house doesn’t conform to the latest trends in interior decorating. Is it "shabby?" And somebody on a bicycle might crash into my mailbox and get hurt. Is my home a "public hazard?"

Does any of this remind you of the "eminent domain" controversy over "shabby" houses, which went to the Supreme Court before common sense prevailed?

Is Obama using homelessness to renew the eminent domain land grab attempt that was made by the ultra wealthy?
Kami, I re-posted it for your benefit, because you answered before I filled in the details.

I respected you because yours was the only answer that didn’t outright bash me.

Now you’ve done it, too.
