Famous Last Words
"Hopefully this final change over will be part of the time that flies."
That's how I ended the last post. Take a look at the time stamp on this post... I haven't even begun my job yet. As I've reported there was an extra show tonight, so we lost about 5 hours of work time, and all of the actors who ended their contracts today were off at 11p.m., so we lost a big chunk of work crew in our final hour with them. I have always made fun of the lighting staff and called them FITWES, or Fucking In The Way Electricians, because they have to have ladders and things onstage, usually when I need the stage clear to paint, they are really earning that nickname tonight. I slept from 7 until midnight with the anticipation of being able to work because everyone said that this change over was going to be the easiest yet. Lighting estimated 45 minutes for their section, sets estimated 3 hours. I am about to go back to bed with the understanding that they wake me whenever the stage is clear enough for me to paint. 5 a.m. .... 6 a.m. .... who knows. Bacchus is determined to kill me yet with this place.
