OK guys, bear with me, this is going to be quite a rant...
So I'm checking my facebook today (who isn't on facebook these days?) and notice that my agents (Im an aspiring actress) have FINALLY put up pictures of all us women (the men have been on there for months, and there's even a fancy slide show of them). So I check it out, as you do. I'm about half way through (we're alphabetically ordered) and it's quite a good picture, I must say. "So why the rant?" I hear you asking. Well, it's simple - they made a mistake NO agent should make, no matter how many people they have on their books (this, incidently is why I chose this particular agency - they are small, and I didn't want to get lost in the cracks of a large one) THEY GOT MY FUCKING NAME WRONG!!!!!!!
Aparently, I'm one of TWO Jessica Swedens they hve, and the only similarities I can see between us is the fact that we are both blonde - WTF????? So I put a rather tame comment (this is not Jessica Sweden - this is me, J------ C-----------) and will be calling them up on Monday to ask then what the hell went wrong, and how they could possibly not recognise me, when they only have 55 women on their books.
If that's the way they treat their actors, I'd rather not have them for my agents.
PS: still no luck uploading that pic of my purple hair

And yeah, I get what you're saying about the routine and being there every week. I sort of feel like if I couldn't be a real parent to him/her, offer that stability, I would just step-out. Maybe that sounds bad, I don't know... I don't mean to give excuses for dead-beat fathers like mine. I just don't think I could ever handle being a part-time dad, I'd rather let someone else be a full-time one.
