Has someone ever told you about a job opportunity and you thought, This is perfect. Exactly what l need? Thats exactly how I felt when I was hired to do a job, until it was turned into a job that I did not sign up for. I even had to chase my check and got push back. As an actor, working side jobs to get by can be a breeze or a nightmare. Today we’re diving into jobs that seem like they would be good to do, but end up completely different; the chaos, the headaches, and the lessons you never see in the job description.

When we see something that is considered “free” it peaks our interest because let’s be honest, who doesn’t like free stuff. However, you have to ask yourself, why is this thing that I’m seeking free? What do they want from me in return? When you find yourself online looking for free options, just remember to do your research or you may end up in a situation that is hard to get out of.
