So here's the deal:
I've already paid my half of this month's rent, and my girlfriend is paying her half today (meaning the apartment is our's until August 25th).
What do I do now that I don't have a $7.50ph job to attend to everyday? Well, there are many things...but only two that I can think of are actually productive.
a) Shoot my fucking short film already. I already have music from high quality, notorious bands such as Dead Air Fresheners, and Scissor Shock; a "new" camera; as well as 95% of my SFX gear and lighting. I even met a cake decorator/graphic designer at work, who was more than glad to make my production company logo for his portfolio! Although I haven't secured legal rights on the name yet (I was planning on it with my next paycheck).
b) Look for a new job...wherever I can find it. I only had this job for little over 2 months...and I was fired. Should I avoid putting it on a resume?
Although fired (bitchy afternoon shift manager...who had no clue whatsoever as to what personal space was; although that's a different story), I still left on good terms; I was just not enthused enough about baked goods, and supposedly "looked forward to my breaks too much".
But I've gotten over the initial shock already. The worst that could come out of this is that I'm an 18 yr old film geek that lives with his parents, has a hot girlfriend, and attends film school. Sounds like a decent life to me - it just sucks that I have no idea what to do after that now, and was finally starting to truly feel as if I had everything figured out.
