Camera Shy

Finally, I did something to get paid!

On any other day, I would be picky about the work I take. But I haven’t gotten anything for over 2 weeks, so I figured, whatever I take will help me buy groceries.

I became a background actor and acted as filler on this one show. A show, I would NOT watch. This was one of the most difficult things I have ever done. I was getting paid to appear on TV, but I really didn’t want to appear. The whole day, I was afraid to be caught by the camera; worried someone I know might see me on the show and contact me via facebook -or any similar social network- and announce their discovery publicly.

I made sure to watch that show on TV later on that day, to make sure I didn’t appear on it at all. Like I had a right to edit it, or something. :) Well, lucky for me, I didn’t appear on it and my facebook nightmare didn’t happen.

At the end of the day, when all my expenses (lunch, gas, initiation fee) were deducted, I was not left with much, but I was happy to have made my initiation fee back ( cause I was convinced this was a useless expense.) When I got home, my feet were hurting like hell and I had twice as many wrinkles – because of the sun-. Oh well. Just a small price to pay for groceries...
