Today was day 2 of running the office while everyone else was gone. I kinda enjoyed. We had a major/minor SNAFU involving a conference call with the president of production, studio wonks and director who is made of artistic awesome.

Other than that it was cold calling production companies and asking them what their hiring process is for writers' assistants. Two gave me an email address, one a fax number. All were fully staffed-- which is no surprise. I guess I'm going to have to see if they need any PAs instead. Here's something of interest: Nearly all of them said that they hired by word of mouth, or only people that they knew. One woman flat out said "Nepotism. Totally, completely nepotism."

Which made me want to work for her. Because she also offered me good luck and sounded like she meant it. And she was honest.

Back to the grind.

And the Celtics lost. Boo.
