So, I know most of you know this, but I just started a new job. This job basically fell into my lap. Somehow this studio got my resume back in august from someone (I didn't even know who until just this week. It turned out to be a random friend from KC who knew a receptionist at the company)and then they had a job open up starting in January. They called me in a for an interview at the beginning of Dec and I GOT IT!! My official title is post-production assistant. My companies name is Motion Theory. You guys should check out the website. We have done music videos and commercials for some pretty big names. I just started Wed and I'm already exhausted. I am in fact still at work now. I start work at 9am, and then usually don't leave before 9pm. Not to mention I live on the other side of LA. I work in Venice (by the beach!) which is over an hour commute to my apartment. Tonight I am actually here till 2am, and then have to be back in at 9am. I know you are probably thinking that this is the worst job ever, but I love it so much. I only started here yesterday, and they already have been on 5 big projects (including a Buick, and superbowl spot) It's just really encouraging that I actually love to work in the career I have chosen for myself. The other great thing is I'm on a salary, have paid vacations and I'm actually making enough money to pay all my bills, put money away, and see the occasional movie (I budgeted out 4 a month). I just never thought this type of thing would happen to me so soon out of college. I'm really happy and I just wanted to share that with you girls.
This all means though, that it will be almost impossible to get a hold of me on the week days haha
Love you all, and I'm happy to hear you are all doing well.
Amy- Your story about your car made me literally laugh out loud. Everyone turned to my desk to look at me
OH that the other thing... I HAVE MY OWN DESK!!
I really am I big girl.
xoxo,

Yeah I bet you miss having to let your car run for awhile in the morning and scrape the windshield off because it got down to -20 degrees the night before :) How cold is it in CA in January????
ReplyDeleteIt is usually in the 60-70 degree range during the day and 40s at night. Not bad.... It is actually kind of neat, since I'm so close to the coast, weather at my office is quite a bit different then where I live. Lots more fog in the late afternoon/evening. I drive two blocks east and it all disappears. Its very strange lol.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happppy for you!!!! (only a little jealous ;)
