Interview


Supposedly, it's supposed to look like this again tomorrow. We'll see.

I interviewed for a job today. It's a little step up. I don't know when I'll know. They have a few more interviews but I'm hoping the guy right after me sounded a little like this.

PRODUCER
So, Gerald, I see you're interested in television.

GERALD
I love it. I just want to live inside it, you know?

PRODUCER
Sure. I think we all in a way fantasize about living in the shows we love.

GERALD
No, I just want to be that small. It would be so cool. I could save money on groceries. I would put a saddle on my cat and ride it places.

PRODUCER
Interesting. So you want to work for us?

GERALD
Aw, man. Why'd you have to put it like that? Couldn't we all just work for each other?

PRODUCER
Why are you here?

GERALD
That's deep. Why are YOU here? Why are WE here?

PRODUCER
We're not. I want you to go.

GERALD
What the crap? Someone said I was gonna get lunch.

PRODUCER
No one told you that.

GERALD
They didn't? Well, isn't that just like it, man. Maybe I told myself that.

PRODUCER
Please send James back in and don't touch anyone on the way out, please.

GERALD
Fine! Forget you and your empty promises of food and your shrink magic! I have to go now and find someone who offered me lunch.

End scene. So we'll see what happens.

Make yourself happy. Find these two songs:

Flakes by Mystery Jets

and

I Know I Don't Know by Jonquil

  1. I wish I had applied for the job. I can look real incompetent when I put my mind to it.

I like comments. They make me less dead inside.
