so guess what guys? im a human at work!!!
so if you looking at that and tilting your head slightly while scratching you chin wondering if i might elaborate on that soon. well you can stop because i will er am explaing.... in due time. bahhahaha no right now actually. most of you all know that i am too immature to actually have a real job, until 4 years ago i actually found a job that welcomed my craziness with open arms.( a looney toons character at six flags) i cant believe i've been there for[technically] four years, last year i was hired but i never worked because of scheduling issues and what not then school started and longstory short i didnt work, but this year i returned. ( i know im crazy right? i mean i must be.some how i fear ill be a lifer or you know get up 7 or 8 years (oh wow). so being a character has taught me quite a few things and im glad to have that as a life experience. i could even say it was life changing. i have many long lasting friendships with people i would have never met if it weren't for this job and thats one of the best feelings ever. but there comes a time when we have to move on and i felt that it was that time ( that and i was stuck in freaking wiggles dock box as pepe for my summer schedule after they said there wasnt going to be permanent casting.) yes so i asked earlier, because i wasnt aware that they held acting auditions for streetmosphere (stilt walkers and firefighter and police man) so i didnt audition but i asked ryan whos streetmosphere supe that if anything became open to please let me know (of course i meant for stilt walking...) and he said he would and guess what for the first time in entertainment history a SUPE kept their word. this one guy just up and quit and as soon as i walked in thursday, ryan came up to me and asked if i wanted to audition and my reaction was a "hell yes i do" so i did day parade like i always do right when i walk in (i drive a car w/ a character in it) then right before my fist walk ryan called wiggles and told me to get down there and get the police man costume and hell meet me in wardrobe. so im all excited lol and nervous. HA! all the audition was, was a walk lol. i have to admit its weird being able to talk as a character. if you've ever been character you know what i mean by weird. but it was a new experience and i sort of like it, i mean its kind of boring and you actually have to get people to like you (as a character the costume does most of the job, because people already know who you are) as fire girl i have to prove myself more if that makes any sense. in actuality its kind of boring, people are rude or the just dont play along. and since this is the first year they havent worked out all the kinks and our props suck or we just dont have them. and sadly my crew is only this one guy, whos so much better at this than i am but he went to college for puppeteering and what not. i have done any acting since what fifth grade? lol but all in all its fun when i get into it. and i rather be bored and a human for more money than pissed off and sarcastic for the same pay. hahah will goes" this is because we made you pepe isnt it?" lol and i was thinking "damn straight" but what i said was that "i didnt hurt my decision" all the SUPES walk around pouty when they see me now and today was only me second day lol rach gives me the stink eye lol but i love it matt and mike were like "jessica come on, we keep loosing all our good characters to shows" hmmmmmmm i wonder why? lol TREAT US BETTER! seriously the new people are either really good or really bad no in between and there are way more bad than good and like they had a whole day of training. my first day i came in carrie and ohio told me the rules and told me to get in grays and hop in sylvester no training guys and wasnt a trainwreck like some of these people. rach says ill be crawling back to her begging to be porky, and truth be told i already miss it, but im sick and tired oof all the rules and all the crap and the new people, and not being able to see my friends ( i still dont see all my friends but its because im doing a show not because im a character and my hours suck ass. so heres my pro/con list
pro fire girl:
-backstage pass ( i wear my own clothes not that ugly neon danger yellow shirt) -dollar more then the shit pay i was making -im a human -i can talk back to stupid guest. -i dont work nights (this might be a con too because i actually like night parade) -supes dont breathe down our necks, we're lucky if they stop by once a day -if i see a picture of me in costume i can actually tag it as me lol and not the background.
con no looneytunes:
-i miss porky :( -i HAVE to talk to guest. -i miss my friends and dock box life -i only have one day off a week and its thursdays, and ill probably wind up coming to the park with my family of friends or something. -i miss being told how awesome/ cute i am a million times a day. (not even exaggerating, now i only get awkward looks) - i only walk around in hometown. - ill never be apart of either parades.... sad day.
i think its pretty much even (theres actually more cons but the pay is worth like 3 pros lol)
too bad im not getting 10 dollars.
