Ustream Recap: The First Episode.

Holy moly schmoley. I have been one busy lady.

To recap, on Friday, the first episode of "Blood, Sweat and Beers" on Ustream was lost to the sands of bandwidth, because I did not hit the "Start Record" button before I began broadcasting. D'oh!

I did, however, get e-mailed the results of the live polls that I posted:


Five minutes into broadcast, I asked:

Poll Question: Do you like white beer?

1. Yes. - Total Votes: 0 Percentage: 0%

2. Never tried it. - Total Votes: 1 Percentage: 100%

3. Take off your shirt. - Total Votes: 0 Percentage: 0%

4. I only drink wine. Beer is for sissies. - Total Votes: 0 Percentage: 0%


Ten minutes into broadcast, I asked:

Poll Question: Should I chug my beer?

1. Yes. - Total Votes: 1 Percentage: 50%

2. No. - Total Votes: 0 Percentage: 0%

3. Drink from the bottle and get the sediments. - Total Votes: 0 Percentage: 0%

4. Take off your top. - Total Votes: 1 Percentage: 50%


Fifteen minutes into broadcast, I asked:

Poll Question: Would you hire me for $100?

1. Yes, as my personal bodyguard. - Total Votes: 1 Percentage: 50%

2. No, you aren't worth that much. - Total Votes: 0 Percentage: 0%

3. Why? - Total Votes: 1 Percentage: 50%

4. Do you accept Amex? - Total Votes: 0 Percentage: 0%


As you can tell by the number of responses to my polls, I was pretty much broadcasting to two people: an adorable 17 year-old American named Tim (who wanted to hire me as his personal bodyguard), and a 36 year-old married guy whose wife is expecting. Congrats, man!!!!!

Based on my first experience, I'm really impressed with the audience building potential of Ustream and its interactivity. Ustream allows you to host both live chats and polls while broadcasting your show, which is a great way to connect with your audience.

I'm also quite enchanted by its "Social Streaming" aspect: you can also post live updates to Facebook and Twitter while broadcasting. I think that Ustream is positioning itself at the forefront of social media and social networking, and once I fully explore all the functions and master them, I think it's going to be an invaluable tool. If you have a Ustream show, please let me know in my comments section so I can check it out! If you're not on Ustream and you're a blogger, I strongly suggest you get on it! I predict that Ustream will soon become the YouTube of social networking.

Before I forget, thanks to everyone who suggested a beer for my Friday broadcast. I wound up going with the anonymous suggestion left on my blog of "Blanche de Chambly", a corked local white beer with light citrus notes. I gave it a 7/10 because I am permanently half burnt out all the time and absentmindedly left it on my counter top. I therefore had to drink it a little warm. On top of that, it was also mildly flat, being a hand-corked microbrew. But man, the cork gave a nice pop when it came off, eh Tim?

:D

I hope that by next week I'll have a bigger audience and remember to hit record so I can share the show post-broadcast here if you are too UH-LAME to make it to MY AWESOME FRIDAY NIGHT INTERACTIVE SHOW at 7 p.m EST!

Talk to you tomorrow about Job 28, Job 29 AND Job 30 (which I completed yesterday).


Yours in social streaming,

Aimee

SOOOO MUCH to catch up on!

Hello!!!!!

I had a crazy week last week, culminating in a fun first experience on UStream last night. In brief, as I am running to the bank to open my trading account, and then off to a photoshoot for a young designer for Job 30 (!), I need to announce Job 28, 29 and Job 30 later today. I also need to talk "Blood, Sweat and Beers"!

Running, running,

Aimee

UStream.tv, TOMORROW!

7 p.m. EST tomorrow night: BLOOD, SWEAT AND BEERS on USTREAM!!!

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/one-hundred-jobs-blood-sweat-and-beers

See you tomorrow night!

AND SEND ON SOME DAMN BEER SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE!!!!!

Yours,


Aimee

Day Trader, Part IV

I called CIBC this week and I'm going in to open my Investor's Edge trading account on Saturday, 'cause we all know the weekend is EXACTLY when we want to be taking care of banking!

*bllleeearrrgggghhhhhhh*

I think I'm going with the cash account with fees of $28.95 per trade and an annual fee of $50, commencing in September. I may go with the Tax-free savings account option (TFSA), so I don't have to pay taxes on my profits for any money invested under $5000 (no problem there!), which may have a current CIBC special of $6.95 per trade. Too bad I don't fit into their "generous offer" of "no annual fee when you maintain a balance of $10,000 in your account." Judging by the risks inherent in first-time trading, I'd make more money in a medium interest GIC than investing $10 000 into my trading account. But I digress...

In terms of online discount stock brokerages, the option of E-trade is out of the question, as it appears that you can't open an account if you are Canadian.

On the helpful financial blog "Million Dollar Journey" I found out that a site called I-trade is available in Canada. My guess is that Scotia Bank snapped up the Canadian arm of E-trade, given that Canadian banks are financial powerhouses compared to smaller, independent American banks still reeling from the housing market crash.

Another option that is highly recommended by Million Dollar Journey is Questrade. I might take Million Dollar Journey up on its offer as an affiliate of Questrade and "Get $50 credited to new accounts using “MillionDollarJourney” as the affiliate code or by simply using this link to join) some conditions apply)." The conditions appear to be that you "Open and fund an account with Questrade and get a $50 trade rebate when you complete 10 trades." I still have to calculate if that deal is worth my investment.

One thing I will not do, for sure, is borrow money to fund my first trading experience, especially without knowing the markets or my profit margins. That sounds like Jérome Kerviel's rogue-trading recipe for losing $7.2 Billon in money that feels imaginary, but is very, very real. I'm all for artists acquiring financial intelligence and smart money-making habits, not gambling-style financial disasters. I'd rather you learn from my successes, my friends, not from my failures!

Now all that is left is to pick a stock that actually performs or has a chance of doing a quick double, which is doubling its value in a very short time span. Market sources indicate (Dad) that I MAY be better off buying a lottery ticket. No can do, Pops, I'm gonna lose money while educating myself, just like I did at University!

Plus, can you imagine if one of my "One Hundred Jobs" made me go into debt? Get drunk on a Friday brewskie while live streaming, yes, losing money I don't have, hells no!

By the way, I want my ever-lurking readership to suggest a brand of beer for me to drink tomorrow for "Blood, Sweat and Beers". PLEASE!

You can leave comments anonymously!

I promise I won't "stock" you!

Hahaha,

Aimee

P.S. I have decided that I will likely live stream and tape a segment simultaneously for the first episode of "Blood, Sweat and Beers". You may even be able to chat live with me after my rant! I'll post details later tonight.

P.P.S. Join me on Facebook: type One Hundred Jobs into the search bar! Clue: your membership plays into the successful completion of Job 28!

One Hundred Bucks

Remember the post where I talked about my creative process and how I write down my ideas for projects and stick them to my wall? I promised a photo of the Post-it that led to the creation of "One Hundred Jobs" and here she is in all her scribbled glory:



Please take note of the word "psycho" scribbled above "One Hundred Bucks". To be clear, the two ideas are not related. Pinky swear.

I'm glad my blog didn't end up with the title "One Hundred Bucks"; it doesn't have the zing or clarity of "One Hundred Jobs". Plus, the domain was taken, thank goodness.

I call destiny.

On a funnier note, I was also tossing around the idea of "One Hundred Clams."

Yeah. Ouch. Clammy. Icky.

Quite recently, there was a very eclectic, somewhat confusing "100 Clams" exhibit at an Auckland, New Zealand arts space. I don't see any actual clams in there either... Clearly, I chose wisely.

I take the photo of the Post-it as proof that if a good idea has legs, it can start with a scribble.

The journey of ten thousand clams starts with one bucket, kids,

Blood, Sweat, Beers, Bums and Facebook

Ladies and gents, starting this FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, I'm doing a weekly video log to compliment my One Hundred Jobs episodes on YouTube: www.youtube.com/onehundredjobs.

I am entitling my Friday night offering "Blood, Sweat and Beers." It will be my spoken recap of my week in One Hundred Jobs and I will sample and review local and international beers! What's better, after a long, hard week at work, than flipping on your camera, gulping a brewskie and crying into your hands? Nothing, I say! Nothing. Get ready, YouTube, I'm competing with Vaynerchuk!

Secondly, I have opened my Facebook fan page. If you type "One Hundred Jobs" into the Facebook search bar, you'll find my page. I want to get more of y'all involved, so please join! Stop lurking, pervs, and start following!

IN OTHER JOBS:

I spoke with my friend Cheryl last night, who is a successful real estate agent, and she wants to book me for Job 28. She says she wants me to "leverage myself with myself." I have no idea what she means, but maybe after my Friday night beer, I will. More deets next Monday!

AND FINALLY:

I have decided to call a week-long moratorium on all bum and sex-related chatter (bum sex?) after this post. So until February 2, 2010, I will not talk about bums, butts, spanking, behinds, arses or any of the descriptive keywords in Uncle D's website.

To go out with spank, here are photos that I did not edit from George, the Spanker's collection:












And here's a picture of my bunny. I'm just sayin'.

And a final word from George:

Hi Aimee,

I like the work you've done on those photos so far. You selected what were probably my two favorite shots as well.

Those models actually behaved very well, so no spankings were called for.

Sorry to hear you will be easing off the tushy talk on your blog. Maybe I'll come back to haunt you as Freddy the Foot Fetishist. (I am kidding - although you can make good money doing foot gigs as a model, you won't make any from me, as that's not one of my personal perversions.)

As we come to the close of our business arrangement, I am feeling bittersweet. I am happy to have shared some thoughts with you through the ether, and gotten to know you a little better. I remain forever sad, however, that you rejected my first OneHundredJobs offer. In fact, I am waxing poetic:

In My Dreams
By George (the Spanker)

I regret that I may never see
The naked arse of my fair Aimee,

Across my lap, up in the air!
Those glorious glutes! So firm! So bare!

(In my dreams, she says)

"George, please stop! My bum's so sore...
... Well okay, maybe just one more,"

But it's OneHundredJobs she seeks
Not OneHundredSmacks upon her cheeks,

Oh, it would have been wonderful to see
The derriere of my fair Aimee,

Up in the air! For me to spank!
Excuse me now, I'm off to wank.

Beautiful, George, beautiful.

See you on Facebook,


Aimee.

Job 27: Bug-Eyed Photoshopper

Yeah... I have officially been staring at my screen for way too long. I need eye drops and quite possibly a case of mind-bleach. Just kidding!

Without further adieu the results of my toil for George, the Spanker. Click to enlarge the buttocks.

After:


(removed the air conditioner and gently liquefied/sculpted the cheeks... if you want to see the uncensored versions, you're going to have to e-mail me or Tweet @onehundredjobs)

Bewbs before:



Bewbs after:



And my final thoughts:



Blogger compresses the heck out of the jpegs, even the enlarged versions. I also have other less "blasted with light" versions. George says he's happy, though!

I'll get you more outtakes later if I stop seeing floating bums and flashing lashings,

George's Spank, Spanked!

So I'm Photoshopping George's Spank (the "artistic nude" photos he took) to get them ready for delivery to him tonight and their release tomorrow, and as I am cleaning up a girl's behind (literally) I notice, wait, why is her skin such a weird texture... Why is her BEHIND SO RED? OHMYGODSHEWASSPANKEDRIGHTBEFORE THIS PICTUREWAS TAKEN! MAYBE EVEN WITH A WHIP!!! George, you got yourself a good deal on a model!

Now I'm left with an artistic dilemma: does George want me to exaggerate the redness or cosmetically remove it? How much spank do I leave in George's spank?

There are always aesthetic and artistic values to balance while Photoshopping. How much modifying do I want to do to the model's body? Does she really need to be artistically slimmed or nipped and tucked? What's the cool wrinkle that I could leave? How do I preserve the artistic integrity and tone of the photo while visually enhancing it? Most importantly, what does the client want?

I assume that George wants the models to look as gorgeous, juicy and bootylicious as possible, so I'll focus my editing skills on natural-looking beautification. Ironically, a lot of digital manipulation is needed to achieve a natural-looking result. When I'm done with the photos, the ideal is to not be able to tell where I've edited at all.


You'll have to wait and see when I release the photos tomorrow! Bum-bum-bum....

Aimee-to-butt

P.S. I'm kinda getting tired of talking about arses... I've had a very ass-filled couple of weeks!

The Assman is Not Amused

Because I'm a persistent little bugger, I wrote the Assman, Uncle D, one final pitch to help out selling t-shirts and interview him at the Everything to do With Sex show.

My pitch:

Hey Uncle D,

I'm going to try to sell myself to you
again for a shorter sales appearance at
the show: I am willing to do a 5-6 hour
sales stint of t-shirts at the show,
plus a high quality vid of an interview with
you, for $100. I can invoice you with taxes,
if you would like, as well.

I will cross link to your e-store and
give you a lot of positive PR.
My blog also has a large male following
(about 75% male). I'm at Telefilm conference
today about new media: a lot of television
producers here and a lot of chatter being
raised about my project. I say it's amazing
investment, with great ROI, plus
I kick ass at sales, including t-shirts.

Probably Saturday will be a peak day for
the show?

Let me know,

Aimee

This was his response to my pitch:

Thanks for the offer to 'pay' for an interview Aimee but you may want to do a little research on who I am and the 'value' my appearance on your show would bring to your ratings and credibility. Not sure if that would be called fair for me 'paying' for that.

At any rate thanks for the 'offer' and good luck on your project.

Regards

Uncle D

This was my response to him:

Uncle D,

My philosophy is that you never know where your traffic will come from. I'm a new media strategist so I offered what I thought was a potential opportunity to connect with a new market. My offers are not empty... and I mean that warmly.

Should you change your mind please feel free to send me an e-mail.

Take care and have fun at the show,

Aimee.

Moral of the story:

You can lead an ass to water, but you can't make it pay you a hundred bucks.

Hahahahaha.

Good luck, Uncle D.

I tried!!!!

Just to Get By

I love this song, "Get by" by Talib Kweli. Great groove and sage advice:

We smell the musk at the dusk
in the crack of the dawn,
We go through "Episodes II,"
like "Attack of the Clones",
Work 'til we break our back
and you hear the crack of the bone,
To get by... just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by.

We commute to computers,
Spirits stay mute while you eagles spread rumors,
We survivalists, turned to consumers,
Just to get by... just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by.

I ran into one of the working mothers at my son's daycare and we wound up talking about how tough it is to get by sometimes. Between a multitude of work stresses, bills, responsibilities and the weight of great expectations to improve one's career, it can be really hard to negotiate the limitations of adulthood.

So many of us are sold the idea via culture, marketers and self-help gurus that we can be anything, do anything and achieve anything. Frequently, reality does not match those expectations. You may work 50 hours a week at a stable job in your field, but that does not usually engender greatness or a large paycheck. It's hugely frustrating, especially when you set your sights as high as I have.

I'll admit that I am a visionary: I am rarely satisfied with the status quo. I'm always challenging myself to continually improve upon myself and my projects. However, I long for the day when I'm past all of the struggles of getting my projects off the ground and instead witnessing them soar. But how do I get there? How does the mother from my daycare climb the corporate ladder in a highly competitive field, while still raising a family? How do you get beyond just getting by?

The definition of "getting by" is also highly personal when it comes to employment and it's hard to know where you fit in on the lifetime hierarchy of success. Some people can't imagine making less than six figures to get by, while others are happy to even be employed at a fast food joint, like the following video of transgendered Timaya getting rejected to work at McDonalds.

She may be outrageous and make light of her situation, but the prejudices she faces are very real. You could argue that her over-the-top reactions are a result of the way many people have always treated her and denied her access to even the most modest of employment opportunities. She has to work ten times as hard as I do just to get by:



Ironically, I think Timaya Qaadir may be having the last laugh in her employment struggles because she has leveraged her individuality into a large following on YouTube and on her website.

Maybe that's what I need to focus on: by persisting and making the most of everything I have to offer creatively and professionally, and staying true to myself and my goals (73 more jobs to go!), I am much closer to getting beyond just getting by. I have found my reasons, like in the song:

This morning, I woke up
Feeling brand new I jumped up
Feeling my highs, and my lows
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smoking, and stop drinking
But I've been thinking - I've got my reasons
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by), just to get (by)

Find your truth and success will follow? Find your truth, live it, and you'll be happy with what you have?

Let me know what you think.

We're all getting by, together!


Aimee (Yeah, some days I'm philosophical.)

Job 27: The Spanker

So, seeing as it's a slow month and all, I decided that I'm going to bend over and let George take over....

JUST KIDDING!

George actually extended this generous offer and I am going to take it:

Hi again Aimee,

While sitting here picking my tired old butt, waiting for your firm young butt pic to arrive (I wish!), I had an idea for a real, very-close-to-legitimate job offer for you! Not porn! You could do it with all your clothes on if you wanted to! I think you might even enjoy doing it!

First, how are your Photoshop skills? Because mine suck.

If you have some Photoshop chops, I have a collection of tasteful artistic nudes I shot of a few different female models (I do have hobbies other than spanking), but I don't have the time or the talent to clean them up for my portfolio.

Would that project interest you? Or is it too porn-ish, perhaps?

There are a few implied nudes in the bunch you could post on your blog as evidence of your work. We could discuss how many you would do for $100, if you want to give it a try.

Best,

George the Spanker and Amateur Photographer

So Job 27 is officially going to be Photoshopping George's Spank.

I'm going to tastefully edit 2 photos from George's collection and reveal the results on my blog, later this week. I may have to censor faces bums faces though. How...

*Thwack!*

Day Trader, Part III

As I am already a client of CIBC, I decided that I am going to open a CIBC self-directed investor's account for my trading antics.

I spoke with a telephone banking representative today on the phone and got the typical run around with opening my account via telephone (saying in person or online is less time consuming[?]) and was given the usual offering of accounts with packages, hidden fees and/or complicated fee structures that exceed or don't meet my needs peanuts. If I was going to be doing a butt load (ah, bums... lol) of trading, I could open an Investor's Edge account, but at $395 in annual fees for a package of 50 trades, it far exceeds my needs for the number of trades I will make and my why-am-I-eating-beans-and-ketchup-again-for-dinner-life-savings-fund. Ahem.

There are a few other options. I can open a standard cash account with no limitations on the types of stocks I purchase (I can buy American pink sheets or semi-fraudtastic penny stocks... yay!!!) with fees of $28.95 per trade, and an annual fee of $60 charged in September if my account balance is less than $10 000 (ah, the TOTAL VALUE OF MY 100 JOBS PROJECT!). Or, if I open a TFSA (tax free savings account) equity trade account (limiting the types of stocks I can invest in) I can trade for $6.95 a share until June 30, 2010. For now there are no fees on THAT account, but CIBC is implementing fees of $50 annually in 2011. Don't you just love how regulated the banks are in Canada? Ha ha ha ha. Yeah.

There is some feedback on the 50plus discussion forums that there are better offerings than CIBC. I figure going to the Zoomers for advice about money is the best, seeing as their generation HAS ALL OF IT... whine. Daddy!!!!!! The commenters suggest I should check out Etrade.com for a cheaper solution or TD Waterhouse for better customer service. Also, a reader, Michael, sent in a helpful suggestion that Yahoo Finance has some pretty good online market advice, as well. I'll look into it!

For now, I'll leave you with CIBC's helpful list to determine if YOU are willing to lose your life savings account for one stupid CRAP job a self-directed investor.

Are You a Self-Directed Investor?

With so many investment sources available today, making a decision on which provider you should choose and how you should invest can be daunting. Would it be best to go with a financial planner? A broker? Or perhaps you have the confidence to rely on yourself? Start by asking yourself about your personal characteristics and preferences.

Self-Research

Self-directed investors like to rely on their own judgment and research to get the latest on their investments. Rather than looking to one source, they scope out and assess different resources to get a complete picture of the financial landscape and markets.

Self-Reliance

Instead of depending on others to guide and advise them, self-directed investors are self-starters who proactively invest on their own with little outside assistance. Self-directed investors want comprehensive and advanced tools they can access to effectively manage their investments.

Self-Confident

Ultimately, self-directed investors may have different financial goals and objectives but a common attribute is that they have the confidence to control their own investing. They are comfortable with using the Internet and are familiar with online services.

Self-Directing

Self-directed investors are willing to make choices on their own, but also know how to use resources to make those choices.

Assume the Position

Like a beacon of light in my darkest hour, I speak of posteriors and my knight in shining fetish gear comes knocking: George, the Spanker, wrote me several e-mails last night:

Subject: Assume the Position

Hi Aimee,

I thought you didn't love me any more, then I saw you mentioned me in your Canadian Assman post!

:)

I do think you deserve a spanking for posting that doggie porn last week. I agree with your comments about it, though.

It's funny you posted that Post-It note photo, as I recently came across (no pun intended) a video of a woman covered in Post-It notes, slowly stripping them off. The video ended with her wearing just three strategically placed notes.

I like your Post-It photo almost as much! Very sexy!

George the Spanker

Followed by:

Found that Post-it video I referenced earlier:

[http://OMG I TOTALLY CANNOT POST POST-IT PORN!*]

After watching it again, I began to wonder, while this could be considered sexier than your Post-it photo (although it's very close, and certainly debatable), is it really any sexier than your awesome booty-shake video?

So I watched your booty shake video again. And again.

I believe this will require further study.

I will get back to you when I reach a conclusion.

What's your opinion?

George the Spanker and Booty Connoisseur

Dear George,

I fear for the safety of your pink post-it. Remember if you stick and unstick it too many times, it will stop working.

Love,

Your mother.

IN JOBS FROM AROUND THE WEB:

I think I've started a trend: there is a Toronto artist is employing my starving-artist-numerical-challenge-blog-revenue-model. Diliana Popova is trying to complete a painting a day for a year and documenting it via her blog Canvas Day.

I actually paint myself... maybe on top of all the other things I am planning, I can paint a painting (or be commissioned for one) for $100. Any takers?

Hey...

I could PAINT A GIANT POST IT STUCK TO A BUM!

George? You interested?

Wowza: The Canadian Assman!

I keep trying to get work for the upcoming The Everything To Do With Sex show and it isn't working out so far. I don't know if I have scared off potential sex industry employers by my restrictive attitude towards certain types of sex work (that being prostitution of any form, if I haven't made it Dingle-numbingly obvious by now), or if my "classic" model looks miscategorize me as prudish and "unsexy".

A car show employer actually said to me once, "I'm much more comfortable with the idea of you booking me a suite at a hotel front desk than doing anything dirty to me inside one of the rooms." Classy. That's okay dude, because I'd rather eat the hotel front desk and twelve Bic pens than be presented with your Micro Compact stick shift.

I disagree with the men who find me unsexy because I don't look like a classic porn star. I hereby declare myself, "Smart-sexy with a side of cute." Please sign here for your room charge of $182.77 and meet me after work to discuss Anais Nin and sexy librarians.

And because I refuse to give up on my brand of sexy, here is a photo of the infamous Uncle D (who apparently starred in the hit Showcase series "Webdreams"), whom I just applied to work for selling t-shirts promoting his "Canadian Assman" website at the upcoming sex show:



There is so much wonderfulness going on in the photo: Uncle D's maple leaf crown, the generous glutes of his crimson-booted models, the yoni-like swirls of his bandanna, the luscious green shrubbery, his impressive tongue worthy of a good... (!) lol!

As well, I love the exhaustive arse-related list of descriptive keywords in the legal disclaimer of his website:

This site contains explicit visual images of tight jeans, big butt, bubble butt, but man, denim shorts, booty, bikini, spandex, leather, Canadian, ass, man, butt, skin, lycra, pvc, bubble, buttman, anal, bum, sexy ladies, derrier, garter, panty, hose, pantyhose, boots, thong, g string, fetish, bikini, swim wear, water, wet, sex, facesitting, face, sitting, ass man, bubble, butts, cameltoes, camel, toes, female, end, stiletto, LEVI, stretch jeans, woman, girls, ladies, tight stretch, trousers, pants, high heels, narrow waist, levi, sex, free, download, pics, non nude, non-nude, non nude teen, non nude teens, hot, sex, young, teens, bikini, thong, schoolgirls, cheerleaders, wet, britney spears, swimsuits, sexy, xxx, girls, panties, bra, underwear, tits, nonnude, naked, nude, girls kissing, pics, models, tgp, webcam and other assorted picture of an adult nature.

Sounds like a fun weekend. Not sure how Britney Spears figures into ass play, but it's been a long time since I Googled "LEVI", 1998 and schoolgirls.

Hurry up, hire me and let me touch my toes!*

Entry Level Position

I'm having one of those lazy Fridays again, where conducting McGoogle searches on "Giant Gummi Bears" is infinitely more rewarding than pushing my pencil. Productivity rating: ZERO.



IN JOBS FROM MY PAST:

I shot this photo in 2005 as part of a Nerve.com photo contest where the theme was "Sexiest use of Post-it Notes". Nerve selected the image for a banner ad to promote the contest. Strangely enough, I think it applies to "One Hundred Jobs"*:

*as in entry-level jobs I will not do for $100. Click to enlarge.

I used to love entering Nerve's amateur photo contest, because I had the chance to artistically direct my own photo shoot based on a simple suggestion like "sexiest photo of someone holding an umbrella." I'd delight in coming up with a creative approach to the theme, assembling the props, dolling myself up, setting my camera on auto timer, and snapping away. It was also great practise for my Photoshopping skills and foreshadowed my passion for modeling and fashion photography.

Much to me and my 2.1 megapixel cam's chagrin, I never wound up winning any money, but I did receive at least three honourable mentions.

Alas, it appears that Nerve.com no longer holds the photo contests so my sexy self-portraits are lost to the sands of time...

Feel free to console yourself with this useful chart:



Enjoy your evening, Gummi-style,

Day Trader, Part II

Woke up today feeling a wee bit better, and I'm still determined to get some answers about how I can make some trades and gain $100 in profit via the stock market.

My thanks to the folks at About.com for this informative and useful article about stock trading basics:

http://stocks.about.com/od/tradingbasics/a/Basictrading.htm

About.com have a whole series of informative articles on the basics of stocks and trading. Finally, a quality source of financial information explained in simple language!

I'm definitely going with an online broker, like TD Waterhouse. Of course, there is the typical annoying paperwork and set-up time. I also have to pick which stock or stocks I want to invest in that are cheap enough for me to purchase for $100, but growth-oriented enough to generate $100 profit within a reasonable time frame.

I'm starting the process today. Whee! (enh)

This NSFW "Puppy Love" editorial, shot by Montreal photographers Leda and St.Jacques, epitomizes the darker side of fashion photography:



I appreciated EM's comment at the bottom of the page:

49. I love how indifferent the dog looks. The model is trying so hard and the dog is so blasé. I feel like this shoot epitomizes the idiocy of edginess for edginess's sake so prevalent in fashion. It's got everything, the ersatz incisive social commentary, the exploitation and degradation of the involved parties, the unimaginative composition and above all, the total lack of any creative merit. This shoot is a blatant, albeit toned down rip off of a Deutsch (a German magazine) editorial that ran in 2008. Theirs has a bit of artistic value, not much, but some if only for the sheer discomfort and thought it induces. http://copyranter.blogspot.com/2008/02/deutsch-apparently-not-bestiality.html

Just in case you were wondering: no, I wouldn't have accepted that editorial for $100, even if it's shot by relatively well-known Montreal fashion photographers. I think it's implied bestiality and in poor taste. I also think the photographers were taking advantage of the career aspirations of the young model and her youthful willingness to experiment. Gross.

Day Trader, Part I

It's snowing, I have a nagging cold/flu, I'm manky and a wee bit miserable, so I decided to research the stock market. Doesn't really sound like a recipe for success, does it? lol.

The first how-to video I came across when Googling "trading stocks online" was this:

Live Day Trading Stocks Online and Help For June 23 on Howcast

First off, I applaud you if you don't fall asleep at your keyboard about six minutes in. The title is also misleading, "Live Day Trading Stocks Online and Help For June 23." I do see the live trading interface/ computer screen of the trader and hear his somewhat confident, somewhat reeking of perma-inadequacy, commentary, but I received very little by the way of help.

From what I can tell, day trading is different than purchasing and holding onto a stock. Day trading comes across as more of an educated individual gambler's game than a long term investment strategy. My guess is, though, that day traders stand to make a lot more in sudden profit than those managing long term portfolios.

Thinking even further, watching the trader move his money around, "Stopping" his volume of stock and selling it at a certain level, his actions show me the reason why the stock market is such a massive yet precarious system. When he says the market is "bleeding", he's not mistaken.

I'm intrigued.

Really way out in left field: I wonder if Twitter resembles the stock market in some ways, both via individual and group actions or trends? Could a Twitter like system benefit the stock market?

More on this later. I'll make a trader out of me yet.

Zany Aerobics

My free gift to you: slightly NSFW links to charming music videos sent in by readers regarding my upcoming aerobics class.

Totally my style of music, totally not my style of aerobics class:


The handsome guy at the back of the class could totally get into my class for free, though. lol.

Gymnastics, Lycra, boobies and balance beams:


Impressive splits and ball work.

I'm calling a studio today to see how much the rental for my class will be. It's going to take place somewhere downtown. I'll keep y'all posted.

IN OTHER JOBS:

I keep getting identical spam messages sent through Craigslist and they really piss me off because I get my hopes up for a legit offer, only to go, "Oh no, not this AGAIN":

Hey,

I saw that you posted an ad on Craigslist on 9/24/2009.

First, let me start off by saying that I hope that you had good luck with your "Local model looking for odd jobs (Montreal)" post. I love using Craigslist to sell my stuff, as it almost always sells so fast, and usually for around my asking price. Although, gosh, I sure do meet some of the most, ummm, interesting people sometimes.

Anyway, the reason that I am emailing you is because I know of a website that is wanting to work with people in or around Montreal, that are interested in starting their own Internet business. You can do this either part-time or full-time - it's entirely up to you.

I don't want to rush you into making a decision, but this same offer is going out to all people who posted an ad on Craigslist in Montreal, and I wouldn't want you to miss out on your chance to be taught everything you need to know, completely free, to start making money online.

This is perfect for you if you have absolutely no experience whatsoever with working online; no educational or special skills are required, as all training is provided for you.

This is perfect for us Craigslist users, because we obviously already know how the basics of how to use a computer, and we pretty much know our way around the Internet.
So, if this sounds like something you might be interested in, you can check out our website, and I hope that you choose to apply.

Thanks for your time,

BS Research

Dear BS Research,

Hey. I got the e-mail that you sent through Craigslist on 1/12/2010, as well as on 9/30/2009, 10/13/2009, 10/29/2009, 11/15/2009, 12/6/2009/ and 12/26/2009.

First, let me start off by saying that I have had good luck with my "Local model looking for odd jobs (Montreal)" post. I love using Craigslist to sell my ass, as it almost always sells so fast, and usually for around my asking price. Although, gosh, I sure do meet some of the most, ummm, interesting people sometimes, like spankers, bug squishers and hand-in-the-pants.

Anyway, the reason that I am emailing you is because I know you wanted to waste the time of people who live in or around Montreal, that likely not very interested in starting their own Internet business.

I don't want to rush you into making a decision, but this e-mail is going out to all of the people who read my blog in Montreal, and I wouldn't want you to miss out on your chance to be taught everything you need to know, completely free in this e-mail, to LEAVE US THE F*** ALONE.

Thanks for your time,

Rich Author, Poor Reader.

I finished reading "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", by Robert Kiyosaki, over the weekend. To reiterate what I said before, although the book is a great motivating tool in getting the reader to think about taking control of his or her finances, it offers little by way of practical solutions to building wealth, other than by advocating financial education, ironically not really found in the book:

"I take a long view on my wealth. I do not subscribe to the “Get rich quick” mentality most lottery players or casino gamblers have. I may go in and out of stocks, but I am long on education. If you want to fly an airplane, I advise taking lessons first. I am always shocked at people who buy stocks or real estate, but never invest in their greatest asset, their mind. Just because you bought a house or two does not make you an expert at real estate." - Rich Dad, Poor Dad p. 169

I agree with the long view on education, but disagree with the utility of the book. Just because you read "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" does not make you an expert on building wealth. Apparently, I am not alone, I dredged up some recent reviews of the book, and most reviewers echo my sentiments:

A particularly negative review, by John T. Reed, with excellent points.

TheSimpleDollar's thorough, balanced analysis of what the book does and does not offer: The good, the bad and the ugly of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad".

If you are still curious, here's a free PDF of the book. You can thank me if it inspires you, but it's mostly a whole lot of money porn with very little money action.

I removed the book from my Amazon.com recommendations and replaced it with an award winning book of short stories, Blackouts, written by a dear friend, Craig Boyko. Inside scoop: the story "The Problem of Pleasure" was inspired by me, minus the ending... that didn't happen. I swear.

IN OTHER JOBS:

Darren received some more orders for Tidy Tab and it may have been because of my blog. I sure hope so! Regardless of what I think about "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", Darren has been the most helpful employer thus far with regards to my financial education. I look forward to continue working with him, improving on my businesses and debating about books and money strategies.

OF COURSE it's my goal to do less than 100 jobs to make $10 000, in the long term. If I keep meeting with and working for people like Darren, I think it's a distinct possibility.

I am starting to choreograph my zany aerobics class this week. If you are interested in participating, e-mail me at passionateaimee AT yahoo.ca . Tickets for the hour class will be $10 and will take place at a studio somewhere downtown.

Be well and remember to flex your financial muscles, peeps!

Job 26: The List: Complete!

I completed Job 26 late Thursday evening. Darren and I had a 4 hour phone meeting where we discussed "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", his professional goals and strategies, and completed some of the business letters he had been putting off. Everyone hates the minor details, I have concluded. If it's easy, it's so much harder to do... isn't that true?

That is why my apartment is mostly a crumpled changing room. Don't judge: my clothes look better on the floor. ;) lol.

Darren requested that I write out a list of tasks I accomplished for him:

- Sent a package for him via Express Post
- Read "Rich Dad, Poor Dad"
- Printed out "Design Your Best Year Ever" and completed the first four exercises.
- Helped Darren fill out the 4th exercise. Defined that his professional life is the focus for 2010.
- Registered Darren for a Tumblr blog: Crackingthecode. Encouraged him to start his blog about cracking the code to financial independence and limitless wealth: his passion.
- Refined the list of his tasks to accomplish to three key items
- Completed two business letters
- Started a list of Darren's next revenue generating projects
- Set the goals of Darren generating an additional $200/month in passive income for the next two months, $2000 per month in the next six months up to $8000+ per months for the final 6 months for a total of $100 000 additional revenue by December 31, 2010.

He has some very good ideas and I wish him the very best on achieving his goal. If he does, we are going out for dinner at Queue de Cheval.(Interesting marketing campaign for Queue: I think I am what they term a number one Q client: a bon vivant.) Yes, I just invited myself out, Darren. :D

IN OTHER JOBS:

My darling friend Sholom wrote me this about the cavalcade of sexual offers I get for One Hundred Jobs:

"Your 100 jobs campaign is so genius in that you are exposed to some of the quirks of male desire."

I agree. I think it's also genius for other reasons, like finding ways to increase my financial independence and authenticity, but up until now the sexual aspect of One Hundred Jobs has been unarguably intriguing.

Another cute message from the Spanker, George (edited for anonymity):

You don't need my picture! I am the guy in that video.

Just kidding, of course. But I bet you'd let him spank you.

I agree with you about the Stephen Frew painting. That turned out to be a pretty good gig all-around, it seems.

Alas, one picture of my bare face does not equal one pic of your not-bare bum, so I respectfully decline to send you my photo.

My job offer remains sincere. I had envisioned meeting you halfway, in or near Albany (and paying your travel expenses, of course).

Take care, and please watch out for the squished-bug fetishists.

Not a pretty boy, but a pretty average boy with decent grammar,

George

--

Sigh. Even if George seems like a reasonable enough disciplinarian, I just can't compromise my non-sexual employment clause. The furthest I am willing to go is burlesque or art modeling.

He's right though: the guy in that video can bend me over and...

make me design his website anytime.


Enjoy your Saturday, my quirks of [fe]male desire,


Aimee

Ffffrrrried-day

I, Aimee, am exhausto.

I will post the post I wrote today tomorrow because I am having hard time correctly forming English adjectives.

I cleaned for Richard for 7 hours today.

Hard labour does that to a girl. Pine sol brain again?

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz and enjoy your evening,

A.

P.s. For some reason the antivirus is blocking me from seeing this post. WTF? It says it contains part of the Silly_Gen script. Silly, yes, viral, no.

EyeGasm and MindFreeze

Stephen Frew just sent me one of the drawings he made from the photographs taken during Job 25, my Christmas art modeling:



I.love.it. 100% eyegasm (and appealing to my spirit, as well!!!). I think it is my favorite artist's rendering of me in recent memory. And there is even a little white heart to the right of my lower right jaw. Perfecto.

As ego maniacal as it sounds, I'd even wear a t-shirt with this design on it, for sure. Thank you, Stephen! *big hug*

Now on to the mind freeze... I've been reading "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" for Job 26, and although I recommended it in my "Books to Devour" Amazon sidebar, I'm unimpressed by the content. I'm considering removing it from my recommendations.

To summarize the first 100 pages of the book, if you want to be wealthy, you have to obtain more assets than liabilities (you learn that most of your material possessions are liabilities, including your house), and you should have money put aside that mathematically works for you without you having to physically work for it (stocks, bonds, real estate investments, start-up investments). The book also advocates financial literacy, but I have yet to learn anything specific about finances, accounting or properly investing in stocks from the book.

"Rich Dad Poor Dad" is a good tool to get you started thinking about playing a more active role in your finances, and I thank Darren for requiring me to read it, but it's far from mind blowing or revolutionary. The book did, however, inspire me to make investing in a stock and trying to profit $100.00 one of my jobs. Now I just have to find out where to open a reasonably priced investors account online...

IN OTHER JOBS SPANKINGS:

George, the spanker whom I respectfully declined yesterday, wrote back with a funny e-mail and a link to a pretty darn arousing, "cheeky" video clip:

Hi Aimee,

I saw that you referenced my generous offer in your blog. You have to admit I made blogging pretty easy for you today. I am glad you are not squashing the worms. That dude is sick.

The only thing that might have made your post better (I am somewhat of an expert on blogging) would have been a link to this video (NSFW, but safe enough for YouTube):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C11ftLeMjlw

Hope it makes you smile, at least.

I promise to lose your email now.

Best,

George

--

Now George has me all curious. Who is he and how did he find me? Do I know him already? (He says no.) Does he live in Montreal? Is he the editor of thesuperficial.com? If he is, I'm ready for a few smacks! lol.

I may have "struck" a deal with him this afternoon, at least to find out a little bit more about who he is.

His grammar is too impeccable for me to lose interest, for now. :D

--

Tomorrow, I have to follow up with a lot of my clients who have not yet had me complete my jobs for them. I also need to send out another job posting or two soon because I don't have any tangible, filmable, interesting, uh-mazing jobs brewing for next week, other than: CLEANING FOR RICHARD! *grumble*

Enjoy the video and sphank me later,


Aimee.

I Respectfully Decline (do it for the earthworms)

"I respectfully decline" is going to be my new closing line for the e-mails notifying my rejected job offers.

Here is my final e-mail exchange with PumpkinPie, aka A.J., aka Andrew, aka Master Squisher:

Aimee Davison to Andrew
show details 6:16 PM (19 hours ago)

An hour video is a long time and I don't know if I can stomach the thought of squishing live beings.

If you are telling me a short video of me squishing gummy worms, I'm game, but the real stuff of long duration grosses me out.

Payment would need to be made in advance on Paypal.

--

Andrew to me show details 9:46 PM (16 hours ago)

you just compile bug crush video and mail the tape when you have an hours worth.

--

Andrew,

I respectfully decline.

My best,

Aimee.

Dear readers, do you know how long an hour is in cinematic terms? A VERY LONG TIME. That's not even counting the editing!

I'll also explain his indecent foot fetish-cum-animal torture-cum-squishing fetish proposition mathematically:

On average, I could squish 3 earthworms in a pile every 10 seconds, if I stomped them and really mushed them around. Lovely.

a pound of worms flesh.

There are 60 seconds in a minute. So I could squish 3 earthworms six times over in sixty seconds. Three times six is eighteen. Therefore, I could squish 18 earthworms a minute, without pausing.

There are 60 minutes in an hour. 60 minutes times 18 earthworms is...

1080 EARTHWORMS!

How many minutes do you think it would take to scrape the guts of 1080 earthworms off of the floor? How many additional buckets of my own vomit would I have to clean up after that? Also, do you know how much that would cost me? In excess of $100! I'd have to start breeding the things in a worm bin a month in advance to make my choice economically feasible.

I'd need a veritable (though environmentally sound) WORM FACTORY!

Look at how cute he is:



I'm sorry, Andrew, but your offer is a bad deal or me, myself and the earthworms.

NEXT OFFER:

Hi Aimee,

Great blog!

Here's a job offer that at first I thought you might reject, but when I saw that one of your favorite movies was Secretary, I thought maybe it's worth a shot...

The offer is for you to videotape yourself receiving a sorority-style paddling.

Five good smacks (that's $20 each) with a paddle on the bare behind, filmed with you bent over (facing the camera), skirt up, panties down.

If you can't find anyone to be your co-star as The Paddler, I would be happy to oblige! I would be willing to pay more for that privilege, of course.

George

--

Dear George,

I respectfully decline.

My best,

Aimee

Aimee,

:(

Let me know if you change your mind!

In the meantime, I'll try to come up with an even better idea.

Best of luck in your quest to find 100 jobs that don't involve being spanked,

George

How about this, George, I come up with a way to have you lose my e-mail address.

OH SNAP!



I respectfully decline,

This about explains my day...

You can get earthworms at a bait shop or meal worms at a pet store. Throw them on the floor put your camera down pointing at them and squish away. 120/hr what wont you squish?

Dear Readers:

I may swallow my pride, but I won't squish it.

Job 26: Personal Project Manager

Darren S. confirmed as Job 26 yesterday! We are still figuring out my official title, but for now I'm identifying as his Personal Project Manager.

On Friday he sent me this e-mail:

Aimee,

I have a lot of groundwork to cover to license the products I have created.

Fortunately, working 44 hours a week during regular business hours provides me with one of the three things I need to Monetize my ideas like 1) Time - NOPE 2) Energy - I don't think so! 3) Money - Yup! More than if I wasn't working!

So, this is my latest idea on how I can be more productive, and accomplish my goals. Hire someone smart, personable and who is a good communicator to be a remote assistant (while I'm at work in Toronto). While I'd love to hire that person 5 days a week, right now my cash flow only allows for one day every two weeks.

This is my proposal: Would you consider being my remote assistant one day next week as a trial day (paid of course) to see if there are more jobs I can hire you for in the future? The rate would be $ 100 for six hours of work.

I look forward to your response!

Best wishes,

Darren

--

We met face-to-face on Saturday at an awesome pub called Helm Brasseur Gourmand, where he showed me prototypes of a few of his wildly interesting inventions, like the Tidy Tab, a clever little device that sticks on to your toilet seat to allow you to lift and lower the seat without touching it.

After a lengthy chat, we concluded that I am going to assist him, starting this week, in prioritizing his designs, projects and life so that he can successfully license or sell one or more of his designs or projects by years' end.

In a more unconventional, but fully appreciated, gesture, Darren also has me on assignment reading "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", by Robert Kiyosaki (I have it listed in my Amazon.com book carousel on the left of the blog) and, along with him, I will be completing "Design Your Best Year Ever" by Darren Hardy.

He believes that at this stage of his career as an entrepreneur, he needs to find like-minded people and work with them to achieve success, not just for himself, but for everyone involved. Darren and I have reached a mutually beneficial business agreement and I think a job like this is the reason I began One Hundred Jobs: to improve upon my self and my career, and to help other people (like you!) in the process.

IN OTHER JOBS:

I worked a solid six hours for Job 24 today: I complied a list of children's camps, daycare and centres and placed sixteen cold calls for the open casting of the short film, Julia Julep, by Band with Pictures. Michael and I are working overtime to make sure that the open casting call on the 17th of January is a success. We want as many English speaking Causcasian girls, aged 4-6, to attend as possible.

I am still looking for two more volunteer production assistants if anyone is interested!

Also, outside of working for One Hundred Jobs, I worked for Richard, my building superintendent, today, cleaning up a renovated apartment. I did not have the time to work for him, but when i dropped off my rent cheque he begged me. This is how much of a work horse I've become: on top of all my other jobs, I tasted my good old tough-as-hell summer job, cleaning, to kick off my first day back at work in 2010.

I'm gonna go soak my bod and read some mind candy. More calls to make tomorrow and mountains to climb.

Coffee is my friend and sleep my lovvvveeeerrrrrr,


Aimee.

Squishy Scenario

Reply to your "Hire me for 100 Jobs: Viral New Media Project!" Ad on Kijiji:

Do you own your own video cam? And would you sell me videos of you squishing stuff in a variety of shoes? $/hr vids

- Pumpkinpie

WOULD I????

You know, depending on what this bloke answers, I'll consider taping myself stepping on something inanimate and mushy for $100. If it's a headless 30 second video of my foot in 5" heels squishing a banana, really, why not?

I'm sure you'd do it.

Yes, you would!

Why not cater to misplaced soft tissue fantasies? I don't discriminate. much.

What else would squish nicely?


A tube of toothpaste.



Lipstick.



A cucumber.

(nice crook)

A sausage.



Wait... I'm detecting a trend here. He wants to watch me make a juicy cucumber explode with my foot. Riiiiigggghhhttt...

This should be a poll.

By the way, the results of my last blog poll, "Would you go nude in a box for Christmas?" indicated that the majority of people (50% or 6 out of 12) would consider going naked in a box for Christmas, as long as there were air holes. I knew you guys were kinky squishers!

The elaborated results of the poll:

T**s in a box? - 1 person (clearly a Dick in a Box fan)

WHAT? - 3 people (mock surprise)

For one hundred dollars, baby. - 2 people (you know mah price!)

Will anyone open the box? - 3 people (Schrodinger's "cat")

Are there air holes? - 6 people (safety first!)

No. Pshaw. - O PEOPLE (wow...)

What are you implying? - 4 people. (well...)

What I neglected to mention was that what I was IMPLYING was that the box in my scenario would be delivered to their current boss, resulting in their immediate dismissal. FAIL, people, SEXY BOX FAIL.

Good thing you can fall back on your career of "Professional Squisher."


Squishy but not naked,

Starting the new year right with a two-fer one: my naked bum and mummification, for $100 total.

There are always threads and threads of arguments about rates for nude or fetish models on the forums of Model Mayhem. When no external paying client is involved, some photographers think that all Internet models, clothed or unclothed, should always exchange their modeling time for a CD of photos. Some also tend to view nudity as a choice rather than as a sellable skill.

Since most fine art nude work and fetish/adult work is done off-agency, standard industry rates are hard to establish and vary widely per model. There was a funny thread about nudity a week or so ago on Model Mayhem and a photographer joked that this is the vital chart in determining the severity of nudity, and thus pay, in a model's erogenous zones:



My list was simplified to this:

upper boob
lower boob
quarter boob
side boob
NIPPLZ!!!
hair line
vulva
clitoris
vagina
CERVIXXX!
CERVIXXX IN LATEX!
ANUS TOWN!

I think that whomever asks for services should be the one who pays (i.e. the employer), and the rate can be whatever seems fair, so long that it's mutually decided upon in advance. In the case of nudes, I believe the rate of pay should be much higher, but I am less free with the rights to my unclothed body.

I also don't need shots of my bum for my portfolio in case Walmart asks to see them or to be mummified in print as my next sweet office job.

Msn's Front Page: Be Nosey at Work

AH HAHAHAHAHA. The universe is a funny-arse place. Between being sidelined for New Year's Eve last night with a stomach bug and watching my son puke EXACTLY at midnight, Calgary time, I awake to a text message notifying me of this stock photo of myself on the MSN homepage, with the headlines:

"Be nosey, and other career tips for 2010"

and

"Make this your year to sparkle and shine at work..."

Maybe I should tell MSN that my project, One Hundred Jobs, IS a nosey year at work!


It was shot with a fish-eye lens, hence the distortion. Click to enlarge.

2010 is my year at work! I have 75 more jobs to go and a whole wonderful world to win over,
