[Andrew Kimery] “Pretty much this, though occasionally you do see decent jobs (usually because the employer is trying to cast as broad a net as possible).”

[Warren Eig] “People want the cheapest, not the most skilled or the best. It seems every job wants to know my rate and could care less about looking at my reel.”
