Not really the right forum, perhaps a mod will move it, but I’ll answer. And that would be sometimes…
Now remembering that I’ve been doing this all the way back in the time of linear editing, my first job in the industry was great, but every Friday, me and 2 others would generally put in an 18 hour day to finish a high school sports show. It was my first job and I loved it.
2nd job, made me feel like the guy who was pretty angry. I ended up working for the most abusive, narcissistic and oblivious human I have ever met. It took 8 months to extract myself from that situation and every day going to work felt like a trip to the gallows.
Now I’ve been with a great company for 9 years…and still there are day when things arise in the business where you have to work a late night, lose a weekend, get up at 3AM to catch a flight, but for the most part every day I go to work looking forward to the new challenges I’m going to face, how am I going to solve a clients problem and all kinds of fun that doing this job provides.
