First Day at the Porno Job Update: Seeing as the counter has passed over 1000 in a day, most of which looks like it was due to Metafilter, I would like to address the Metafilter page that references me. Not many comments have really questioned why I write this, but a lot have asked if I am real, lol. Well, I am here to assure you I AM. I am not a man attempting to write a clean narrative (although I will admit my writing skills do lend themselves to tidyiness) nor am I a fake. I will admit that my work in the sex industry (other than my current dayjob) has dropped off and most of the sexcapades in here are now things I do in my private life with my partner. However, I have written a UM honors thesis on sex work and I study deviance and my own life. I tend to think I am a good commentator on what I understand and I believe it is important for us sex workers to talk. If we do not talk, we remain silent and the industry runs without our input. Hence, why I am happy with my recent behind-the-scenes job. I get to give input to my bossses, who I learned yesterday are horribly ignorant on STDs, and attempt to change things from the inside out. They know my other work and I hope to balance both experiences. If you want to ask any questions directly my new foottraffic feel free to email. I do reply. Hoy. I think I will save the updates for the evenings now. I hope this doesn't lose too many people in the shuffle. I made it there and back again alive and with a car. I had a good drive out, although I was thankful for the sunglasses, and I had a worse drive back. I got lost on both drives, almost heading off into Westbound 96 on the way out and taking the entirely wrong side of the freeway on the way back, but I made good time. People passed me like mad, but I was driving the speed LIMIT (merely a suggesstion in Michigan) and probably looking like a crazy fuck as I indulged in lane wandering while fighting the winds on the way home. Luckily, people understand to get away from crazy people in Jaguars. People can be smart sometimes. I am getting better with using my mirrors too and one of these days I might not cut someone off. It's a hope anyways. Getting better though with hope to grow. Work was all right. It's a fun office to be in, although my boss remarked that us girls must be staging a conspiracy with all of our giggling. I got along well with the other girl there though, and we were both glad. It seems the few women they have hired do shitty work and have attitudes, hopefully I can change that. I did most of my work quietly today once I figured it out, it was plug and chug uploading into a form and then checking the site to see that things turned out correctly. I will admit that if I ever meet another Jennifer, Sarah, Summer, Autumn, Amber, Lily, Michelle, or Tiffany again I might scream though. I had to constantly recheck that I was labeling the models correctly and those are incredibly common names. *ugh* Overall, it was mindless busy work that rotted my eyes staring at the LCD screen. Oh, and how do you office rats sit at a desk day after day? My back is KILLING me and my body craves movement. After this, I am off to practice my yoga because I sorely need it. After driving and working at a desk starting at several windows on an LCD screen I wonder how I am going to live healthily into my 80s. I got a little sore carpal tunnel going already with my pinky finger from mousing! I know that I already got to get into deliberate exercise or I am not gonna make it. I am a little jealous already though because my boss and most of the office are leaving to do their first shoot in FL. I keep hearing about all the girls and lining up "stunt cocks" and I sorely want to work in it. I know I got to put in some time, and he warned me with them gone so much these next couple of week it's sink or swim for me, but *pout* I want to go and I wanna get fucked for money again. *sigh* guess I will have to find some gigs again. Otherwise, my career will stagnate on either end. I like being in the production half of it, but I will admit I envy the hot little whores who can make a career out of fucking on film. God knows, I don't have the perfect body for it. *envious again* Daphne |
