Not Again...

Ok. Strike in Hollywood. Like I have said before I understand being paid fairly, but come on. I can only hope the strike is resolved in three months or more. That would be pimp. I would love to see these writers go out and take crappy third shift minimum wage jobs to make ends meet while they complain about their dream jobs "ripping them off" when it comes to being paid for Internet downloads. Get over it. I think that if you have a job that you don't like you are free to get another job. I think that if you disagree with your wages you are free to work harder and earn a raise. I think that if you have a cushy desk job that only asks you to be creative and have fun while entertaining yourselves and the masses you have the right to go and work in a warehouse for 9 bucks an hour to remember why you wanted that writers job to begin with. I can tell you this.... I like me some TV shows, but I also like playing board games. If there is never another joke written for Jay Leno BIG FREAKIN' DEAL! That is one less joke that he can butcher with his weak ass timing. If there is never another episode of Lost made...... oh no what will I do with that hour I spend not watching lost anyway. You see where I am going with this? I think that the writers of TV shows see themselves as indispensable to society, not the case. This is going to open the door for more reality shows the longer it goes. So I say good luck crushing your own dreams for an extra buck.
