Today I won and lost a temp job, for who knows why. I am leary of this agency because they have you record a video stating your background. If they don't like how you look or are maybe 'I don't want black people in my office.' Guess what? I miss they days of them calling you and telling you where and when to show up and you do, and they have no choice but to take you. Now if they are racist they can exercise that beforehand and screw you out of a job, quietly. First it was a three day assignment, then he 'gave it to someone else'. I didn't bother asking why. Because I already know why. Now I'm waiting to hear about a month long assignment. But I have the feeling it's going to be more of the same. He tells them they have a candidate that fits, they say cool. He sends the video and they don't call back. I don't have time for this shit.
I thought maybe I would look for background work in the meantime. Central Casting notoriously rarely has castings that include all ethnicities. I see one for tomorrow. I call, they 'can't use me'. Most likely because it called for upscale, and I am not a size 0. I hate everyone right now. Crazy cramps, so I have been tylenoling all day. Trying to not go over the recommended amount. My bff loaned me a twenny so I can ride the bus for a week and get some apps in some hands. Hopefully I won't be cramping as badly so I can get some stuff done tomorrow.
