When you own your own business you make your own schedule. We are night owls. Since we do a lot of business with California we are on the phone late and sending emails and what not. Sometimes we don't close the store until ten at night and don't get to eat dinner until midnight. You can't go right to bed so you stay up and post stuff on the website or plan out cutting tickets or just relax until about two or three in the morning. It is a late night thing.
When we first signed up for the show I told them there was no way we would be there at eight in the morning. A realistic time was around ten. Eleven would have been perfect but I knew that was too much to ask for. So we comprimised at ten. Of course they are always pushing the envelope and pressuring us to get there early.
Every one is there already and some of them act out a little. I would like to take the aside and say "Hey douchenozzle we all only have a job because of Lisa....other wise you would be scratching to pay your fucking rent this month....she is in every scene and has to be up and bubbly while you are scratching your ass and picking your nose while you hold the camera...so if she needs a couple of extra minutes in the morning it is no big deal...if you don't like it theres the fucking door."
Of course I can't say any of that because we are a new show and we can't get a bad rap. They might think we are more trouble than we are worth. If we are on the cusp of renewal that might tip the scale against us if we act like assholes. Or at least demanding assholes. I have to eat a big bowl of shit each day and say "Thank you sir, can I have another." But if it hits the way I think it will hit it will be a brand new ballgame.
Today is interview day so they got hair and makeup people for the wife and she is very happy. We hired the same girl from the local salon who always blows out her hair so the production was happy since it was very cheap. I had this girl over our house for our Christmas party so she was happy to do it. I am sitting around waiting to go to the store. Don't you know they emailed over to say if we finish the hair and makeup earlier we could start earlier. Really. Dude it has been two weeks. Haven't you figured this out yet.
Hollywood people are just fucking stupid.
