Evaluation
INTERVIEWER: So, what does it feel like to start over again career-wise?
WORKING: Well, I’m only 32. I’m assured that this is perfectly reasonable.
INTERVIEWER: You’re not nervous at all?
WORKING: I’ve done my research.
INTERVIEWER: So you’re doing fine?
WORKING: Fine.
INTERVIEWER: Really?
WORKING: No. I’m freaking out.
INTERVIEWER: I thought so. Then why are you doing this?
WORKING: I want to contribute to society.
INTERVIEWER: You’re saying people in the television industry don’t contribute.
WORKING: Well, it’s questionable.
INTERVIEWER: …
WORKING: Ha! I’m kidding! That was a joke. Some of the best people I know work in the industry.
INTERVIEWER: You’re just blowing smoke, now.
WORKING: No, it's true. They’re a tough bunch of mo-fo’s. As my former boss put it, “if I can keep a Director happy, I can do anything.”
INTERVIEWER: Is that true?
WORKING: Trust me. I was just a Director and I was a total jerk.
INTERVIEWER: So back to my original question, why are you doing this?
WORKING: (thinks for a moment)
WORKING: (thinks for another moment)
WORKING: It just feels right.
INTERVIEWER: So what exactly are you going to be doing?
WORKING: Um…
INTERVIEWER: You don’t know, do you.
WORKING: It’ll be in the field of Healthcare.
INTERVIEWER: You don’t have a clue.
WORKING: I do so! Shut up! I have some ideas.
INTERVIEWER: You’re clueless.
WORKING: I’m working on it. I’m talking to people who know. I'm looking into classes.
INTERVIEWER: And how does Trevor feel about this?
WORKING: He supports me.
INTERVIEWER: He tolerates you.
WORKING: Same difference.
INTERVIEWER: So what else is going on?
WORKING: The dog stinks, like, all the time.
INTERVIEWER: I asked what else is new.
WORKING: No, I mean it’s worse than regular dog stink. Something died in our backyard. She rolls in it.
INTERVIEWER: Go remove it.
WORKING: I tried. I can’t find it. There's nothing there. Just some invisible pile of... stink.
INTERVIEWER: Well, good luck with that.
WORKING: Thank you.
WORKING: Well, I’m only 32. I’m assured that this is perfectly reasonable.
