There is nothing that irks me worse than not receiving a return email response on something very simple.
Being generation Y (I like to think I'm generation "WHY" though), I need instant gratification to fulfill myself. I can't help it. I was raised by a Gen X'er and well blah blah this is another blog about generational differences...
So yeah, I would appreciate an email response within 12 hours, and 24 at the latest, expecially when it deals with business. Heck, you could even send me an auto-response and I'd be happy.
Did I get that? No.
So being the Peruser/Online Stalker I am, I went searching. I typed in the email that I had sent my "job questions" to and found something I'm not so sure about.
A little background on this event...
I'm interested in a dance/gogo position at a re-invented party at Hat Factory called RVAlution. The Facebook page had posted an update saying performer auditions were to be on 4/26 (that's very soon) and had an email posted for questions. I sent the email with my questions, and well now we're here at this blog.
So what really gets me is the person whom I am emailing is not who I was expecting or who I thought I would ever audition for. I dont like that I have to prove myself to someone who doesn't eat, sleep, breathe the part they are judging.
When I apply for a position as a gogo dancer, there better be bad-ass gogo's who are judging my credentials. None of this "I'm a promoter at the club" or "i'm head gogo, but you can't tell from the outside" bologna.
I'm gonna need a certified professional in my field to give me the yay or nay.
This city is so bass-akwards.
I've done this once before for a HUGE production company in DC, probably one of the largest on the east coast. D.C. clubbing doesn't play around. I didn't proceed further in their process and it's okay because they picked some great girls and they lived WAY closer to D.C. than I do.
<-- me at the audition in D.C.
Besides that there are far too many "issues" with their original girls- it's blatantly laid out on Twitter. Anyone can access it, I'm not drinking the "Hater-ade" now, it's in plain sight. I'm not here to live the drama of high school, I'm here to enjoy working.
Anywho...
So what I stumbled upon when "searching" for this email address was a twenty something male with a popped collar and the "fraternity" pics to go along with it.
No Sir. Hopefully you lead a double life cause I dont think people are going to take you seriously just like they haven't taken this party seriously the first time around.
So frustrating.
In closing, I had made a previous goal of starting a team of gogo's with specific traits, personalities and morals that can be contracted out to venue's. I want to be that person who finds the talent and keeps them grounded and managed.
Team EZ does a great job of this in Denver CO and I admire them for what they do and how they represent themselves. If you click on their page you know right off who they are, no frat pictures and popped collars.
Eat, Sleep and Breathe who you are and what you represent. This is who I am.
Search my email, and you'll see that it holds true...

post script- the real way to win this is impress the frat boys, do it better than others, become the authority and take over, then viola- I'm the expert and I'm the one doing the "judging". perfect.
