Right?!? And I read this twice for the sheer “how the fuck does one get a job like that?“ factor. Lol

It al starts with someone asking you “what are you willing to do” when you’re facing homelessness and/or starvation right on their ugly mugs for one to just calmly start ignoring the weirdness out of whatever gig comes their way.

Sadly, this is true. It's insane we treat food, medicine, and housing as privileges so corporations can coerce us into worse working conditions.

I had a gig scanning photos and typing up records of an entire school over a summer break. This was back in the 90s and the school records were going digital.

The whole time the boss played Christian rock recorded live at Godstock (some sort of religious festival anyway). At ear-bleeding volume.

Man I WISH I could have had a gig researching vintage porn music.
