Week 780384

I didn't work sunday this week because of a senior project requirement, so instead i'll be working tuesday as usual, and wednesday. Tuesday I was sent on so many errands, that I was barely at the studio all day. At the end of the night, I was stuck cleaning all of the green rooms by myself, and probably most of the interns didn't clean the green rooms ALL day so there were piles and piles of clothes to put back in wardrobe, very annoying! Sucks being the only intern tuesday night. One of the crew members said to me that I did my job very well and that I was one of the one interns he actually trusts when we say the green rooms are clean (and they actually are). That's pretty cool - and he's not the first person that has said this to me. The only problem is I'm not sure I could ever work there. The job is ridiculous - A Producer's Assistant - its a 60-75 hour work week with $10 an hour, 15 overtime. That means no social life, one day off, and when you're not at the studio doing the shows you're BOOKING shows for the rest of the days of the week! Not to mention commuting from long island, paying for the gas and parking! I don't think I'd like that - and i've found out that many of the PA's that i've become friendly with tell me they are going to quit for certain. At least I can put on my resume that I interned at The Jerry Springer Show/Steve Wilkos Show. I may consider interning again just for the experience.
