My gawd, what amateurs. It's like hiring Brad Pitt, telling him they've decided not to pay him because his acting approach wasn't jibing with their ideas, and then saying as he walked away, "I bet you'd stick around if it was Clooney asking." Yea, he would. But Clooney wouldn't expect him to work for free. Jerks. They actually SAID that? My gawd, what amateurs.

AND they woulnd't let you read through the script? What the HECK? Sorry to hear travel to and from the show was so hard. I think I'm going to make it a point to never visit NY because I don't want to be one of the SFT who tick you off. *g* I send you good wishes for the week ahead!

That's the only way writers will ever get the (financial) respect we deserve--to stop volunteering! It's one thing for a friend, as you say, but hello...we gotta eat too.
