We're in a high end neighborhood of the Bay Area so you can only imagine, gotten tips from customers in the form of weed, coke, unknown pills, had to call the cops on a woman for being wasted and grabbing another woman's tits in the bar, worked a $25k event for a plastic surgeons office (which there was all sorts of fucking weird shit at), had a regular with liver cancer (stock broker who routinely tipped $200 on a $30 tab) and he shit himself all throughout the bar due to his treatments (felt so bad for the guy, haven't seen him since... Might be dead), met a lot of celebrities, mostly athletes, but a few movie stars too.

I live about 15 minutes away from my restaurant in a neighboring suburb and have some really nice landlords. My roommates and I pay $2050 for a 3 bed and 2 bath. Literally unheard of in our area.
Best moments, hard to say. I've had some really fun times with everyone I work with and some of the regulars, honestly I'm closer with the staff than my own family and will probably keep these relationships for a long time, some forever. Some great moments with money, routinely make $10k every holiday season, one year I made $2k, after tipping out the support staff on New Years Eve.
Worst moments, the shifts that we're understaffed or someone says some fucked up shit to you. Having to work as hard as five people and just knowing you're not getting anywhere and still have 3 tables to greet... It can be rough. I've been tempted to walk out multiple times. Once had a customer say some super fucked up shit to me, but my manager fortunately got involved and made the asshole look like an inbred piece of trailer trash.
Just depends on the day, I mostly love my job and know I'm super fucking lucky. The rest of my life is a mess, but at least I've got that lol.

If you have a passion for learning about where you live and about other people, definitely. Journalism will rarely pay 6 figures, unless you elevate yourself to a national news publication or earn a high rank in your company.
If any profession cares more about consistency, it's journalism. You have to be a well-oiled machine that meets deadlines with haste.
It's tough, but it's a thrill. You meet people from all over the place and are always finding out new things. We create history by writing the happenings of our world down for everyone to see

We try to avoid it because we've found that people who are trying to "appeal to milennials" are watching their shit hit a peak and then massive decline because it's just "content".
People just want "content". The best way to do that is just remix their content and branding to make sure it's appropriate to people rather than just "the youth".

be a good person, be someone YOU would work with, and continue to develop content.

I got into it by selling weekend projects out of my garage. After that I got an apprenticeship with someone who liked what I was making and now I work for him. I'm planning on buying my own workshop but it's a difficult process. If you really want to get into it you should first see if you like wood working. If you like that and are good at it, look for an apprenticeship. That's the quickest way to get to the business.

most of the stand ups i work with do that - hit the road and come back every few months to develop projects with their friends.
let me break it down for you (and i don't mean ANY offense - just to clarify)
- depending on the producer... yes. they have the power. however, hollywood is FILLED with producers. post, production, development, etc. it will be rare you will randomly meet a producer that is worth a damn unless it's at a specific party, through someone tapped in or through the studio.
most are full of shit.
HOWEVER, and this is a big however; hollywood is falling apart. those big mirimax, million dollar producers aren't doing too well now.
content is fire, and the studios are ape-men who can't figure out flint.
hollywood is getting smaller and smaller. producers are picking up shit they see on YouTube if it has a following - they have no idea what's going on.
hence, create your own content (also, you will own the rights cross medium - studios will always try to fuck you on that) and have fun.
seriously, you may not ever make seinfield money, but if you get a groove and start running in the right circles you can make a solid living.

Nice. That's what a few of my friends are doing right now.
I know about a few comedy producers, but I know they don't fuck with anyone outside of the NY/LA scene unless someone good introduces them or they've been on thousands of podcast.
I guessed as much as about Hollywood, I'm amazed they haven't been as smart as Disney and bought up YT channels and production houses like Maker.
Thanks man. I've already heard stories of local producers fucking over content creators, including retaining rights to the "names" of the content producers which was the title of the show. It was fucked.
I'm not looking for Seinfeld money, I'm looking at millions of views and billions of laughs. A little bit of cash isn't expected, it'd just be nice.

"Write what you want to watch."
hollywood is filled with people who will tell you "we need a strong female protagonist!" or "the lego movie did well! we need another!"
well, as someone who makes shit from nothing let me tell you you simply can't guess trends. don't you EVER second guess what you're doing because you think it would sell better because of a trend.
just write what you want to watch.
