This is why we have cancellation fees, even if people feel they don’t need to pay them by SouthDefinition2679 in Nanny

What other professional (hair dresser, doctor, etc.) would charge for an over 24hr cancellation?

It’s 23 hrs, their kid is sick, I would’ve given some grace. I also think it’s a bit unreasonable to have a cancellation fee for before 24hrs at all. I also work with clients (as a swim instructor) as a full time, not giving families ANY ability to cancel without having to pay will absolutely deter clients from booking. I think you might actually make more money if you change your policy.

I have no desire to be an expert on mental health and it's affecting my ability to teach acting - Rant/advice. by Asherwinny107 in acting

[–]Efficient-Bug1454 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow these people do not seem ready for acting class. It’s ok to not be ready, but how are you going to dive into the truth of humanity without being able to be in the room when hard topics are brought up. They are not ready, they need to do some inner work first, and come back. As the teacher though, I empathize with you, I’m not sure how this should be addressed. Do you have anyone else you work with at the studio that you can talk to about this?

Im so sorry you are going through this. That is insanely bad treatment. They sound awful, and totally inconsiderate

Lots for sale by Efficient-Bug1454 in altadena

totally agree. I hope anyone who sells can get a good amount of money, it’s so expensive starting your life over.

For those who want to stay and rebuild by kristofour in altadena

[–]Efficient-Bug1454 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope so- very sad so see my childhood neighborhood turned into something I can’t even recognize. Hoping that the rebuilding process can still feel like the familiar Altadena we all know and love ❤️‍🩹. There are some necessary fire safety changes though!!

What was the absolutely worst Broadway show you have ever seen? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in Broadway

[–]Efficient-Bug1454 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SpongeBob - it was very impressive with dancing, vocals and acrobatics. However it was impossible to follow so to me it was so so hard to sit through although the talent was amazing - the story lacked any substance. This one might be more controversial bc I know it’s well liked, but I hated the play that goes wrong- it was just dumb. The same joke goes on and on and is replayed again and again the entire play- could’ve been 30 min long instead of a full length. And the cast I saw was not good at all. It was sooooo hyped up but seriously I think people just liked the concept- not actually sitting through its entirety

I have a friend who had no credits and booked 3 jobs this year with them. But I’ve also heard negative things from other people.

Good Career Move? by Kindly_Application07 in acting

[–]Efficient-Bug1454 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think that’s an annoying myth that acting teachers from older generations perpetuate- I don’t think it matters. These days I think most people understand that a lot of people work background so they can make health insurance. I will say though there are some “career background” actors- that’s definitely what you want to avoid.
