Got this one through a Facebook group:

I guess they send the meals to you through email too?

It may depend if those are "happy" meals or “gourmet” meals.

Good to know that if things get tough, I can just head out to a busy intersection with my cardboard sign, "Will talk for food"...

| It's the opportunity to audition for other jobs which may result in meals. |

I think this video may have been shared here before, but it is most appropriate in this thread and worth another look..

I can safely say with some authority that there never was a project worthy of being put on a demo reel that got its talent by saying "this will look good on your demo reel."
Now that I have professional cameras and lights and editing gear in-house, you should hear the insane propositions people want to make me for video production. It makes "credit and copy" as compensation almost make sense.
I have to go audition for some $79,000 gigs that Philip didn't want to read for.
See ya later.
