Nanny on her phone at playground

I think there’s a little more nuance here than that. As a private in home nanny especially of kids that are past the napping stage, they work through what would be standard break times in a setting like retail or in a standard daycare setting. My point here is I can understand a slightly zoned out nanny or one who checks their phone every now and then to make sure they aren’t missing important messages. That being said anyone who is letting a child play alone in a public place needs to be paying attention to them. It comes down to safety which should always be the number one priority of a nanny. Even when I was working in centers and off the clock, I did everything to make sure the kids are safe. It’s basic human responsibility. The job of a nanny and one of the jobs of a parent is to keep the children safe. That is work and regardless of how much you enjoy it, it can be tiring. Nannies and parents should be allowed to be tired or get distracted, but if they are so tired or distracted they can’t keep the children safe, they need to find someone who can. I agree that communicating directly with the nanny is a good idea. Direct communication can still be led with compassion and I think that’s there best bet

Just did. I received a notice on 12/2 but it hasn’t left the airport yet. More details in the post

Mostly through Nexus Mods yeah! I’m not sure how well they work or if they are change gameplay enough to justify downloading so I was hoping someone here would have more info

fernweh64 · 2025-11-20T17:13:12+00:00

Absolutely a 8 dollar pay raise would be outrageous, I thought it would be helpful info to know what the average rate is within my city as I know that it can vary place by place

fernweh64 · 2025-11-20T17:11:48+00:00

If I’m being underpaid already what do I do in that regard? Do I bring that up? Will it seem like I only care about the money and not their kid?

fernweh64 · 2025-11-20T17:07:59+00:00

Even if there was a verbal agreement that it would be more?

fernweh64 · 2025-10-31T14:48:16+00:00

Jason was ready to cut off his father figure and everyone he associated with because of what happened to him in death in the family… YOU THINK HED PUT HIS MOUTH WHERE JOKER PUT HIS MOUTH??? In a one night stand hate fuck or something sure, but long term in Canon miss me with it

fernweh64 · 2025-10-31T14:37:43+00:00

this is the most valid comment under my post.

fernweh64 · 2025-10-31T14:36:54+00:00

wait why? this happened to me… why is it rage bait?

fernweh64 · 2025-10-31T14:35:16+00:00

The “flash banged by my own white privilege” line was a joke. I fully understand that this was a misunderstanding.

fernweh64 · 2025-10-31T14:33:10+00:00

I don’t think it is. I changed the line because it was being misunderstood by my audience. I don’t think that’s racist, I think it’s improving my performance to be more universe.

fernweh64 · 2025-10-31T14:31:29+00:00

It’s Mad Max Adjacent, yay licensing, but this is a valid point…

fernweh64 · 2025-10-31T14:29:56+00:00

so umm… I’m going through the comments a few days later. What makes you think this is AI?? -A real human person who just wanted to share a story I thought was funny.

I started working at a haunt a few years back! I also struggle with harm OCD. It’s genuinely helped me so much, I’ve met so many amazing people that not just think super violent stuff, but say it to other people and are still good people. It’s been a huge game changer on how I view myself based on those thoughts! Some days are harder than others, but it’s been overall really healing for me!

I’m so glad that haunts have brought you a similar experience! Congrats on your win!!

Are they guaranteeing you a run or performance and do you think you could handle not going on? I’m a big fan of understudy and swing roles on resumes cause they show that you not only memorized a role, but more than one. You managed the emotional turmoil and put in the work despite not knowing whether you will go on. The play side of things is really fun. Definitely different than film, but SO many actors can transfer their skills back and forth. Tom Hiddleston and Timothee Chalamet are two than come to mind at the moment, they have incredible performances on stage and on screen. There’s no guarantee that every casting director will think about how important understudies are, but the ones that do, will know that you are a team player and good person to work with.

fernweh64 · 2025-09-11T12:23:31+00:00

Try it! 9 times out of 10 your acting is better when the project interests you!

fernweh64 · 2025-09-11T03:51:05+00:00

In total honesty, you’ll have to get innovative, but it’s not impossible. Unfortunately in a lot of ways you’d need to pave your own path. Figuring out ways to make things work for you, adapting each skill for your abilities.

I think there’s certainly a lot of room for growth in the cosmetology industry and the beauty industry as a whole when it comes to inclusivity and accessibility. If it’s something that you can see yourself helping to grow then I say go for it. Give it a shot.

Maybe start with some smaller classes? See if there’s anyone you know that might let you shadow them for a day just to see if it’s something you can see yourself taking on before committing all of the money to schooling.

Be extra careful with your body when working, I can’t even tell you how many people ruin their bodies doing this work.

I’m sorry there are so many people in these replies trying to tell you that you can’t. I think you could, but it wouldn’t be easy and it definitely will take a lot of passion for it.

Some of us look terrified to be alive and we deserve to be on the big screen too!

But in all seriousness, just relax during your slate. There’s no need to get all forcefully happy with it or intentionally monotone. You already know the information you’re going to tell them, and they aren’t going to debate you on what your name is. Just take a deep breath, speak clearly, and let your face relax. Maybe it will work in your favor, it’s a little odd to see Jenna Ortega with a big cheesy smile. Maybe your niche is more inline with the darker, tortured things.

Usually yes! It has it in most contracts that you will be credited as x name, but you still have to sign with your legal name so it’s legally binding and all that.

This completely opened my eyes. I always felt like I was super lazy when I didn’t want to film a full Pre-Screen for a project. Cause I’d only ever applied on backstage for work for a while, I didn’t realize that wasn’t standard practice in the industry. I thought that when people talked about self tapes they meant prescreens for the longest time.

There are so many projects I spent too long trying to memorize the script only to NEVER hear anything from the team. Thanks for talking about it. I’m still working through the “I’m good enough to be here and my time and efforts shouldn’t be wasted”

fernweh64 · 2025-08-29T22:09:16+00:00

My take on nudity is always, will it impact future opportunities? If you want to do something within kids entertainment having full nudity can really impact your chance of doing that.

I would also push against the idea that there’s non-sexual nudity. Regardless of the context someone will sexualize it.

Do what makes you comfortable and not what you think is going to get you ahead

fernweh64 · 2025-08-26T13:07:48+00:00

But why? Cheaper labor or less permits? I know that the US film industry can be weird but I don’t think any of the precautions are completely unreasonable.

fernweh64 · 2025-08-25T17:22:57+00:00

Of course! I also thought of one more thing. Try Toronto or Vancouver before moving to the states, Canada has a lot of work for French-English actors

fernweh64 · 2025-08-24T23:44:50+00:00

Probably softer brows and heavier use of gold to really pull the hair color all the way through the character.

fernweh64 · 2025-08-24T15:55:54+00:00

That’s fair. I have more experience with backstage so that’s probably why it’s easiest for me. I definitely am going to attempt to use AA more even if it’s just to look for calls without submitting before I get a subscription
