Ready for Anything, Week 1

After some delay on starting the physical manifestation of this project, I began on June 6th with my first week-long examination of a particular work role. My first week was following the schedule of a Theatre Office Administrative Assistant, and I was able to wake up right on time, complete a job application, and catch the train downtown to arrive by 10am. I only had to run an errand, so I turned right around and headed up Clark to take a meeting for the theatre production I am literary managing for in the fall. I ended up having to take a nap in the afternoon, which felt a bit like hitting a wall early on in this process, but ultimately, I committed to enough working hours in the day and focused on theatre work.

Though I got my start a bit later on day 2 (and subsequent days, starting between 10:30 and 11am), I had an all-around good feeling of staying productive and committing to the project.

I spent a lot of time in transit on day 3 and day 5, and because of that, did not quite accomplish as many working hours in the day as I expected.

This process has made me think more about scheduling in advance than trying to fill the time of the schedule or workday. There is part of the day that has to go to planning the remaining days activities (as now), so it makes the schedule feel a bit loose.

To help explain, here are the criteria I am measuring my work with in relationship to the questionnaires that have been filled out:

Work tasks (percentage of the day spent on particular tasks)

Transit time

Taking work home 

Job satisfaction (Out of 100%) 

Weekly pay 

Amount of time alone vs. time with others (ratio out of 100)

I have some other measurements that take into account the personal schedule surrounding work time, but these are the factors that most circumscribe the work day. I ended the week with a 64% job satisfaction rating, which wasn’t too far from my respondent’s 70% rating; my main dissatisfaction was not feeling productive enough and having to make some schedule adjustments. Ultimately, I only worked 28.5 hours within the scheduled 40-hour work week (not adjusted for work I did outside those hours).

However, a major alignment I found was that much of the work I did was focused on theatre. The theatre company I work for had a majorly productive company meeting as we look forward to the start of our new season in July. My theatre community rallied together in outcry against Profiles Theater and the three decades of abuse investigated by The Reader, I saw the fantastic Bars and Measures at Prop Thtr, and I performed in my burlesque troupe Vaudezilla!’s weekly show. This seems very appropriate for tracking my work against someone’s who works so predominately in the theatre.

Finally, I am thinking about this project in light of the Orlando shootings at Pulse nightclub, how certain of us are very vulnerable in public space--particularly LGBTQ people--and how many of the roles I am examining take place in public. This upcoming week, as the role I’m tracking is in the service industry, I am going to try to focus on being of service to other people and consider how I can be more strategic in working toward safer spaces for marginalized communities.

Stay ready!

I just want to comment, in a macabre, gallows humor, black comedy kind of way,

Just how many goddamn plays of the same type Profiles Theatre found to do to enable Cox’s abuse. Does the world need THAT many angry drunk horny older guy in a questionable, sexual, socially inappropriate relationship with a young woman or girl that buys its “grittiness” at the expense of hyper-real violence, sexual acts and crude language?

Reason number 473 that we need more voices and perspectives in theatre than the straight, white, male voice. At the VERY least, for some change of content.
