Once in a while there is a Master Electrician who:
1. Makes you label both sides of the yolk of every lighting instrument in the plot- with channel number, circuit number and unit number. Then has you label each end of every cable with the same. And even has you label the fucking daisy-chained CXi, because lord knows it's difficult to trace that shit back.
2. Yells at you when you can't find something that you never even touched that day.
3. Has absolutely no sense of humor.
4. Ridicules YOU when someone else labeled your cable wrong.
5. Is 45 years old or older, and really should have moved up by now, unless there is something wrong with her, which there is.
6. Needs to get laid.
7. Thinks it's so cool that she works in New York.
8. Will tell you three effing times that there is no smoking inside. Because you were really gonna just light up on stage.
9. Makes a calm, reasonable person consider snapping on her and going home after two hours in her presence.
10. Hates you upon first meeting you. Because you are not her.
That's all I got to say.
I'm sitting back with Guinness and trying to scrub all the bipolarity off of me.

About Me
- KDubs
- New York, New York, United States
- Tired. Caffeinated. Quietly evil.
I'm a theatre technician, living and working in NYC. Also an aspiring costumer, makeup artist, playwright and dilettante.
I like to rant about things, I swear like a person who swears a lot, and I work too much. Other than that, my time is spent at home with the puppy or in Chelsea bars with friends and co-workers.
