The Interview

I had an interview next to Carnegie Hall at 2pm yesterday. As I rushed off the subway, I realized how out of place my linen, summer suit would be in the context of an audition at Carnegie Hall--in a city of such diversity of thought and lifestyle, we're so absorbed in how we live our lives we seldom stop to think of how the other 8 million live.

My interview was at a staffing agency and it had the feel of a TV set broadcasting what NYC agencies are like to the greater world. Don't you love how TV sets expectations--unrealistic ones, but they are trend-setters nonetheless.
