[QUOTE="Lisa Lane-Collins, post: 88062, member: 2967"] Re: Getting my employer to take me seriously... It's a pub and a music venue, capacity 700, in Adelaide that means they get rising stars (Rodriguez) and fading ones (Tony Childs), plenty of big name acts. It's also a family business, management shared by two sisters, wouldn't know a thing about tech between them. Got some communication from one sister saying the decision to pull me from the gig was the other sister's and one she supports. I've been advised I can contact the other sister on Wednesday. I'm resigned to the idea that this person will never think I am good enough to work in the venue now but I still really want to know why (in case it's things I can work on). On the other hand I really don't want to have to ask her (maybe because I sent her an email only a week ago trying to explain that I do a lot of work outside the venue and I'm getting quite good at this sound teching thing now and what else do I need to know to be venue worthy?! - She did not reply). In regards to quitting, the job I have there is so low pay and token that I have been seeking/attaining/working/losing a myriad of other jobs outside of this venue for years... I am liking the leave and find a better job vibe of everyone's replies. My next thread will be asking folks to cast a critical eye over my resume :-D [/QUOTE]
