Ok, so I hate my job, I hate the location I am in, and the some of the people here are clearly in need of a lobotomy. I want to move, I want to pick up, and get away from here. But, alas, I am poor, and cannot afford to move, or change my job. So, thats why I am asking you, good citizens of the backstage cyber world, to dig deep in those pockets of yours and help me get outta here. I know what you're thinking, "why should I help this freak?" Well, uh, haven't you ever seen "Pay it Forward?" Its good karma!
I moved away from home, and took a job because I thought I could better the company, but, even though I am helping the families I work with, I still feel like I'm doing them a disservice for being a part of something that takes so much away from them. I tried so much to justify what I do, but, its wearing away at me. So, now, I am away from my friends and family, in a dead end job, and not acting anymore. I want to teach acting at an accredited college, but I don't have anywhere NEAR the credentials it takes to be a tenured, or even an associate professor anywhere. I'd like to move to Colorado, because I love the mountains, and i've searched for teaching jobs there, and there's nothing for theatre or the arts...except of course, a branch of the school I work at now. ho hum. Well, if Bill Gates is out there, all I need is about $100,000. I mean, cmon, thats not that much for you, right? Don't you make like 1 billion a day? Well, if anyone has any ideas, Im all ears.

hey this sounds like my story and all of the shows that have been stolen from me.
The biggest loser deal or no deal greenovate red bull air race
They were all my ideas, I even designed the courses for Red Bull Air Race, but my credentials are weak other than the fact that all it really takes is an idea and they were my ideas.

Ummm.... isn't that the type of thinking that got you into this situation? Slave for Life is the ultimate dead end job.
Sounds to me that you have some serious choices you need to make in your life. Good luck and best wishes on whatever you decide.
