This IS the Avid L2: Re: [Avid-L2] [OT] - humor

Here's an article that argues that we may not be much better off than these poor folks. And this is about people who get to work in our industry.

I would also be happy to hear that this article is completely wrong.

What if I don't want my own room?

What if I want to share the room with at least 10 other slave laborers working on the project, including the DP, EP, Gaffer and Craft Services?

I'm serious, I had plenty of time to appreciate the benefits of communal living while 100 of us were crammed into a single metal shipping container stacked on a cargo ship crossing the Pacific. That was heaven.

If I'm going to work for 30 hours a week for lodging -- it had better live up to my current standards.

And while we're on the topic, I gained a heck of a lot of weight on that trans Pacific trip -- and I was not issued a passport when we were unloaded in the middle of the night at Long Beach.

Therefore, it was he art warming to read the following caveat in your advertisement:

"Free food only for you if you show us your passport to prove you from other country and just arriving."
