I've got a job interview. Or, better, I have a job interview that is not for a completely commission based door to door sales position advertised as marketing. Finally. So in my sleepless night, instead of writing my story due for the 31st if I hope it will be considered for a collection, I am reading articles written by self-claimed experts that write for Demand Studios, aka one of the writing websites with more self-importance ever created.

Job Search or Why I Will Never Get a Job

I've got a job interview. Or, better, I have a job interview that is not for a completely commission based door to door sales position advertised as marketing. Finally. So in my sleepless night, instead of writing my story due for the 31st if I hope it will be considered for a collection, I am reading articles written by self-claimed experts that write for Demand Studios, aka one of the writing websites with more self-importance ever created.

They say I have a good voice and style in writing too, and they say I should go into stand-up comedy. While I build my academic credentials for a future in which I fill in forms as Prof. I'd love to work behind the scenes of more films that bring history to the people through any medium.
