This past weekend I was at a birthday party where I stuck up a conversation with a truly enlightened fellow. When we first started talking he asked where I worked, I told him the Shitshow and he started laughing. I asked him what was so funny and he said that we used to work at the Shitshow until he decided to be become a freelance worker in the entertainment industry. He told me that was the best decision he ever made even though it meant not knowing when or how long his next job would be. Much like the garbage man, the Jack In the Box workers, and the radio show callers his story was a very inspirational.
This guy definitely learned from his experience in the entertainment industry because he ended the conversation on a high note. He asked me how many people work at the Shitshow these days. I tried to give him a ballpark figure and he just looked at me and said “back in the days when I worked at the Shitshow if someone asked me that question I would answer with about 25%”
Because 25% isn’t a joke, I throw rocks.
