I'm toiling away at work again today. If toiling means doing no work and fooling around on the internet. I started this job almost a month ago, and i keep thinking I'm going to get new responsibilities and tasks, but so far... nothing. Just answering a few calls a day, doing expense reports once a month, and chilling in front of this computer.
I kind of miss Forster-Delaney. I felt needed there. Really needed. And there was always so much to do that the days just flew by. And even when there was down time, there were tons and tons of pilot scripts for me to read.
I was so sad when I had to take another job because of the strike. Granted, I get paid way more where I am now, and it's a good skill for me to acquire, but I really liked working there. I could really see myself as a manager in a few years. And I had taken on a couple clients of my own. Now I've either got to find spare time to represent them, or I've got to let them go. And if I do decide to keep representing them, I don't have the resources I used to.
I'm only 23 and I'm already having a career crisis.
I will get to meet way more people at this job though. At FD it was just me, Arlene, Jenny, their families, and the occasional client that I got to meet. Here I'm working in a bigger office, and we're in the CAA building, so there's a wide pool of potential friends. That's really cool. it is freaking hard to make good friends in this city.
