Airing of Grievances: The Acting Version

To honor the Festivus holiday I feel it is only appropriate to air my acting grievances.  In an effort to not sound like a bitter old acting hag, I will only air one.


2011 Festivus Grievance: Facebook Posts Announcing Auditions.  

Grievance examples:

"OMGGG I have SUCH an early audition tomorrow." 

"Hey guys, wish me luck on my audition today. It is an AWESOME role."

"Man that audition was long - crossing my fingers that I got the part!!!!"


Look, I get how exciting it is to get called out for an audition. The rush that comes with an audition is indescribable. But auditioning is just part of being an actor. The unpaid part of our J-O-B. 

Now, this might not seem like a suitable or note worthy grievance, so let me provide an example for those folks with normal jobs (or what I like to call 'jobs that pay the bills'). I give you:  Pay The Bills Facebook Posts Announcing Normal Activity:

"OMGGG I just made the BEST coffee."

"Hey guys, wish me luck on my status meeting today. I have an AWESOME pen to take notes with." 

"I just finished processing invoices - crossing my fingers accounting gets it!!!!!" 



Up next,  the Feats of Strength...
