Just got the call. The client, Nissan, that I worked trade shows for last year no longer needs my services. The man who hired us chose 5 women and as of two months ago he did not ask back 3 out of 5 of us. I was one of the two who made the cut but I didn't feel too confident about it. We all did the same job and tried our hardest so there was no telling why he didn't like us. Today I got the call from my agent who had to tell me he hired a whole different group of girls and is no longer needing me. The only thing I can figure is he wasn't happy with the overall number of leads that we got. Never mind that the attendance to the trade show was at an all time low, according to the participants. Also, the fact that our leads were qualified leads versus getting random numbers and names from disinterested parties seemed to be unimpressive to him. I have to admit I'm not at all disappointed by the loss of work because I was truly worried that he would can me anyway. I couldn't see why he let the other ladies go so how could I possibly know what I was doing wrong. However, the loss of money I'm not so thrilled about and need to recover somehow.
Oh and did I mention that since I was going to be booked out of town a lot I had to tell BW that I couldn't teach in the fall? Oh yes, it gets better. Honestly, I don't care about anything but the cash so A to Z is going to have to be my pennies from heaven. I'll have to get some movie deals and other acting work to support me in the style to which I've become accustomed. What style is that? Um, you know food and clothes and stuff. It's all good. Just thought I would write about it so that if the universe wanted to throw me a better gig for more money it could do so. :-)
