Well, my boring assistant quit. He decided the commute was too much for him and took another show in his home town. He claims he didn't seek it out, that it came up as a result of the resumes he had sent out after his last show but I have my doubts. Anyway, he told me on Monday that he was interviewing and Friday was his last day. It would have been his last day even if he hadn't gotten the job...
I really feel like I want to write about all the crap I went through with old-man-clerk but I can't. It's too much for me and I just want to let it go. I think that's part of getting older. You get tired of your own bitching faster. I know other people must be tired of it, too.
So now I am without a clerk but we did bring on a friend of mine (M) to do the 2nd unit payroll and accounting. She's going to take over his desk - it will be nice to have someone in the office who isn't miserable. And I won't fell obligated to make small talk or be cheery. She knows what this job is really like.
We did get a resume for a person to be the clerk. I think S was going to call him yesterday but I don't know if he did or not. I'm trying to take it all in stride and not freak out. It doesn't do any good, any way. And maybe now that M is in town, we can hit some of the tourist spots. We did a lot of that in Boston and had a great time. I hope she ends up on the same Sunday through Thursday schedule I'm on.
