First off I must appologize. It has been awhile since I last posted and I must say I feel a bit of a heel for this, but the reason for which shall be explained in the next blog. But to continue : I was rather surprised when I found out people were reading my blog. I honestly didn't know that what I was writing held much interest for people, but surprises are fun, now aren't they.
But now for the serious part. I had the poor foresight to allow people at my work place to read my blog. Boo on me. So for the past week I've been wrestling with the worry about doing another blog about my feelings about work and LA, and you know what?
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
If you are reading this and I work for you, don't read further. This blog is meant to be a record of my thoughts, so, well freedom of speech and all that. I don't actually know how to make a blog private or anything, and even so, I wouldn't want to make it so people couldn't read it. All that should be known is that I like to vent, and this is fun. Oh granted I could tell my better half, but frankly I am starting to think she is smarter than me, and when I talk about work I feel like she is plotting the assasination of those in my way, and that is a little frightening. Very mother bear syndrome. So I enjoy this form of mental release. Wow, I just refered to the girl as a mother bear, I sure hope that doesn't come back to haunt me. Oh well, I'll just pretend the delete key on the keyboard is broken. SO!
On to better things.
But to wrap this one up, let it be known I like the people I work with, I truly do. They are very nice and helpful. I think a lot of what people in LA believe to be reality is both ridiculous and unfortunately very true.
For example. It is 100% necessary to work as a PA until you meet enough people one or more of who will say "Well, they've earned my respect by putting up with a very tedious job. I will give them a hand up."
HOWEVER, I think it really goes more like this: "Well, Bob there has put up with our immense amount of hazing. And I like the kid, he's friendly. I will help him out cause it sucked when I was a PA."
Can anyone tell me the key difference between the two? That's right. Respect, there ain't none. HA!
But that is the way the buisiness goes. It is referred to as "the last artisan assistantship" out there, but it is more like a hazing bonding experience of the working world. Tis honestly like a different country.
To be continued!
