Is it worth it?
Some days I begin to wonder if a graduate degree was worth it. I mean, sure, I've learned a whole lot and made tons of contacts but sometimes I don't know.
The broadcast business likes to make you work for your job. So if you don't know someone you're definitely going to have to start at the bottom. But if you do know someone, they may get you in contact with the right people but you still gotta start at the bottom.
Out of all the producers-types, 3 out of 4 of us have gotten some kind of job and we're all freelancing. One would think we could do better than that. Maybe we're all trying for the big leagues. In either case, it's frustrating.
I may change my mind in a few months, but for now I just want a job that pays and gives me benefits ... is that too much to ask?
