I think I need to get some administrative experience. That might be the best way to get my foot in the door to some of these film/tv companies.
There is one nagging little voice in my head that is saying, "No! Calling in sick tomorrow would be bad because A. it will be busy B. It will put someone out C. They might find out you just didn't want on your birthday." I hate that little responsible caring voice that cares just a little too much.
