What should i do? its worth asking your job for time off... if they are reasonable they'll say yes straight off.. if they don't, just quit! It's not like it's a permanant job for the rest of your life and if the film pay is good! If you do end up having to quit ( i highly doubt you will have to!) be nice about it, don't be rude to them because if you ever need a favour from them or want your job back, they'll say NO immediatly! somehow u make up the person's mind and do both........bcoz it's very difficult to find a opportunity like this.........as opportunity knocks only once......... first get your priorities sraight! think long-term; about the career you want to have. do you want to be an actress? or do you want to get a career that has to do with this job? if it were me, id go for the part on the show. chances like this only come around every once in a while, but you can get a regular job anytime you want. also, the higher pay is a plus. and listing pros and cons may seem cheesy, but it does work sometimes! well good luck with picking! I would take the summer job because the pay u will get from the tv show wont be good at all since its in the D.R butttt if u get a big role then u should take it |
