i love this home work being assigned by @missy the latest is "best advise given to you". I would have to say "be yourself" do not try and be something that you are not, do not try and fit into those rolls you know you are not. do not believe advertisements or what those who think they are your superiors say you should be.
i love that people think my hair colour is weird, that my mohawk is not business like. that the arts does not pay enough and i should do a "real" job.... Theatre Carpentry is a real fucking job, i have been doing it for 25+ years.
i have traveled to some pretty neat spots to do my job and i hope to travel more to do it in the future. I would have never heard of Cow Head if i was a phone jockey all my life.
