Throwing in the Towel PDF Print E-mail
Written by The Voice of Reason   
Dear Reason,

I’ve spent a lot of precious years of my life in this business and I have to finally face the truth – I HATE MY JOB. I am miserable. And I want to be happy going to work every day. I feel underutilized…under worked AND underpaid! I feel like I’m invisible here when I know I have the potential to be so much more. And I already got promoted from assistant to coordinator, so this isn’t a “hang in there” situation. I’m ready to leave.

The problem is, I’ve only ever worked in entertainment in one way or another. I don’t even know where to start. Any thoughts?

Dear Reason,

I need tips on negotiating.  I just received an offer and I know it's a low ball, but I'm just so bad at negotiating for myself.

Reason started her career in entertainment in her parent’s living room staging the musical “Annie” with the neighborhood kids. Since then, she’s had stints in both New York and Los Angeles working in film, theater, and television.

Reason resided in Manhattan for six years, where she interned for an independent film company and then went back to her roots to work for the producers of Avenue Q, Baz Luhrmann’s Production of Puccini’s La Bohome, and Rent, among others.

In 2004 Reason moved to La-La land where she was faced with traffic, perpetual sun, and the world of television. Reason landed a plum job working for a major network and after several months of wondering whether or not she should just go back to school to be a kindergarten teacher, was recently promoted off of a desk. In hindsight, it was well worth the wait.
