Call in the Replacements

Because I write the rules around here, andam the Queen of Temporary Jobs (QTJ), I have decided to replace Job 38, the cancelled branded business card distribution, >:( , with the neurology conference job that I am working at this week,  >:) .

I got the job through Convention Models and Talent, which is the same awesome, professional and well-paying North American convention staffing company that placed me at the entertaining urology conference (hee hee- PEE PEES and penis pumps!!!) for Job 6.

Offering chocolate to neurosurgeons so they fill out a survey... in my car. 

And thanks be to Gerard Buttler, another replacement job was also offered to me last night by Cheryl, my good friend and real estate agent extraordinaire, who is also the mastermind behind Job 28: holding $100 hostage until I get 1000 Facebook fan page members.  Mah page is some sweet online real estate and you can even live there for free if you PLEASE OH DEAR GOSH PLEASE JOIN!!!

*ahem*

Back to the replacement job: Cheryl was inspired by Sean Aiken's interview yesterday, and so she wants to assign me a job where I'll be giving back and making a difference.  I have to watch the 80s cult movie "Clue" (for what reason, I have no idea, please fill me in via the comments if you do), dredge up my handmade burlesque cigarette girl costume and go entertain residents at an old folk's home by "singing and dancing and just generally making people happy" as I allegedly "always do."  Sounds... complicated and loony, but for $100 I'll consider it a wacky goodwill mission, in red.


Handing out CDs as costumed cigarette girls (I designed and the costumes) for ADAPT 2008.


IN OTHER JOBS:

I haven't followed through with posting all the spam offers I've been getting lately, but I will indulge you now.  Basically, no employer has offered me anything legitimate in Toronto or Montreal in two weeks, despite my posting of multiple calls for jobs.  I think I may have to change my job sourcing tactics when I return to Montreal.  I am tired of getting offers like:

Yes, my friends, nothing but junk offers and a sense of awe at how many opportunistic Spammers there are on the Internets, trying to make a quick buck on the backs of good, smart, honest, charming, sexy, gorgeous, fun and modest Canadian workers.

This QTJ is OUT  to enjoy the best of Toronto's Nightlife,
