The Beginning ... 1/11/'11

365 Days ...

For the next year I am going to blog about all the places and job positions that I apply for ... and most likely, all the ways I get told "No!"

You see, for the past two years I have been applying - and all over the country - for any and all jobs I believe I am qualified for. And for the past two years I have heard - almost exclusively - "no" ... in many fashions ... so this year I am going to keep a blog of said applications and their responses ... and see what comes of it!

Who knows what this adventure might bring, perhaps nothing more than a year long dedication to one project, perhaps more.

I will give accurate theatre names and job titles of the things that I apply for, but will keep that info to myself when talking about rejections ...

So...

Here we go!

  2. this is an AWSOME idea.
    You know what would give you more material? Job hunting down under.
    And by that I do not mean doing naughty things for a job or money. I mean coming to new zealand where I promise there is no paid theatre work, but epic times to be had!!
