Psychobunny the Rubenesque
(Alternate title: I think this just might make me a Bad Feminist.)I was working out my budget for this semester and realized that, as usual, I find myself lacking money. Seventeen credits, plus books, plus research costs will do that to a person. And all that leaves precious little time in which one can do paid work and still do everything well. So I was looking around the buildings on campus for paid opportunities to be a research participant when a flyer caught my eye.
Part-time work available on campus, it said. [I'm listening...]
Two to six hours a week, it said. [Okay, sounds good...]
Fifteen dollars an hour, it said. [You've hooked me! Even at just two hours a week, that's ample grocery money right there.]
I had my interview today. I'll find out next week if the job is mine or not, but it sounded promising.
Oh yeah, the job? Nude model for some local artists. You should have heard my mother sputtering over the phone when I told her that. But hey, at least it's better than the time I tried to break into foot porn. And maybe I'll be able to shame myself into losing some weight. :)

Wow. I don't know if I could do that...I mean, I understand that they're not actually um...."checking me out", but the idea would still be there in my mind and it would totally creep me out. Good luck, is all I can say...you're braver than I am.

Sorry, just way too funny, you are too bashful for that, aren't you?

Actually, I do find the whole situation a little funny. But me, bashful? You must be joking. :)

That sounds like an awesome job. I would not like taking my clothes off in front of strangers, but for $15 bucks an hour, sure. It would be awful for 2-6 hours, and then it would be over. Most hourly jobs last for 8-10 hours per day, and are degrading in ways that are much worse.
