One of the things I got to do on the flight over to Taiwan was actually watch "The Devil Wears Prada" - something I'd never gotten around to.

Holy crap.

Substitute advertising for the fashion biz, and that was my first job out of school, working as an assistant to the producer, agency side - in commerical production.

Substitute the great clothes for pet food and breakfast cereal. (We made commericals. 30 seconds of hell that take weeks to produce.) Do NOT substitute any of the attitude, personality or lack of personal space. Want to know how I produce miracles with only a phone? Yeah, that.

I lasted a year, minus a day, in that job. Walked away with no notice after I finally had had ENOUGH of not being Good Enough, day in and day out - DONE.

And yes, I had that moment of 'oh my ghad, I could BE my boss someday' - and ran.

Yes, that really is someone's life, right now.
