Got hired to frighten bank managers today. Possibly my favourite acting experience yet

My mate Tim runs a small acting troupe that does murder mystery weekends and the odd piece of extra work and calls me occassionally as we used to work in drama club together. Recently he got a contact at HSBC (the world's local bank) and got us work on a training workshop for their managers and team leaders. Basically we come is as disgruntled employees or one with a severe emotion problem and the managers have to deal with us in the safe and control environment of role play.

Mwahh ha haa!! Or so they thought........

Our group successfully scared the shit out of them as we shouted, cried, sulked and stormed out of these one to one environment. The organisers loved it as it was very "real" and the managers were shitting themselves.

Thank god they only know me by my first name as my overdraft is very important to me.

I can't believe that not only I got paid, but I got a free lunch and chauffered to and from the place to do this! I'm very happy now. I'm going to sit contentedly and watch Army of Darkness.

Laters!
