Brittany’s Reviews > Gig: Americans Talk About Their Jobs > Status Update

Supermodel - Heidi Klum
The most interesting part of this interview is how much the beginning of her story relies on good fortune. She offhandedly applied to a mail-in modeling competition as a teenager and won. Got a contract and $300,000. I appreciated her focus on having fun on photoshoots and feeling gratitude for her unique experience and status in life. I wonder how much as been glossed over in these interviews

Casting Director - Lisa Pirriolli
Lisa fell into this job because of a mutual connection. Lisa describes herself as empathetic and thinks that's her edge in the casting/acting world. She has concerns that this job has made her too jaded and self-centered. She's afraid that because she's so work focused she won't find balance through having a partner or develop an outside social life. She daydreams about a stable 9-5.

Updating the progress on this book weekly because I only read one blurb per day
