    I have strong feelings about the animals in the Sea World exhibits, particularly the Orcas and Dolphins. However, I contracted for Sea World Orlando for 5 years as an entertainer and often had to be “back-stage” or “back-area.” I watched Blackfish and it did NOT represent the experience that I, or any other team member I worked/talked with had. It felt very sensationalist and not grounded in reality (or at least, the reality I witnessed for 5 years). If you watch it, I’d just approach it with some scrutiny, because it really didn’t come off as a “documentary” to me.





  • I was working at a music store (that offered lessons) behind the counter. Student came in with a check to pay for lessons, because mom couldn’t remember if they paid. I checked the history and they were paid up. Boss got angry with me for not just taking the check and I got chewed out. Real easy to walk out the door after that.
