Paid To Sit
Not too long ago I'd gotten a job as a Gallery Sitter. For those unfamiliar with the term, the job requires sitting and watching a Gallery, occassionally marking when people enter the air space and sometimes, on an eventful day answering the phones. In short, I get paid to sit. Friends, think this is great, it's the essential I-do-nothing-and-get-paid-for-it stint. Though, I find it unsettling that I get paid as much as I do to practically nothing and the times that they do expect me to do something extra I do it begrudgingly for I'm not used to having to do anything. Usually, it's sloppy and rushed because I want to get back to doing nothing. It's a strange situation. Thoughts on getting paid to sit?
