You shouldn't get unemployment and a full pension for 3 one-liners a year". I kid you not. When I lived in L.A., I knew chicks that would do 2 commercials a year and collect unemployment the rest of the time. This is why California/L.A. is banmkrupt. California is full of leeches that milk the system......and now they want weed too. Like it's really going to help. |

They get enough money and most of the are untalented, useless, whining creatures. Media is the next industry to get downsized, and it's about freakin' time. They are employees and nothing more, they don't make the ad deals, or market the media, or write the script.....they don't deserve what they get now. |
