INTERVIEW IN LA
I interviewed with Big LA today in Culver City. Holy shit is it far. But the position seemed promising so I figured I'd give it a shot.
The agency is a small one and the first thing you notice when you walk inside the building is that it's got an urban loft feel. Things looked a little cluttered, but it reminded me of some of the start-up studios in San Francisco when I used to work there.
No one was really around, but I did recognize a Filipino guy I saw on their website. There's always something comforting about seeing your own people when you're at a job interview. A tall, young and post-Bohemian chick asked me if I was Giovanni and I said I was. She then led me into the conference room where some other young and quite attractive ladies were talking to Colette.
Colette then asked me to follow her upstairs to her office. Colette has that yoga-like body, slim, trim and a great ass. She was tiny but her presence was certainly felt. You knew she ran this joint and that she was the boss.
She told me the position was entry level and that immediately turned me off. I don't want to have to fax, go through mail and do stupid monkey work at this time in my life. I already gave a good two years of my life giving back to the community and if I'm going to do monkey work, I'd rather do it for a good cause.
However, the position still intrigues me because Big LA is a very "green" company. They run a fleet of Prius' that run completely on bio-diesel. That is very cool and I know they probably work with a lot of Hollywood stars who are into that kind of shit.
Nevertheless, the commute is very far and I don't think I would be happy driving all that way to make so little to do dumb work. Although I know the energy would be great and the people would be cool, I'm gonna have to pass on this one.
