For the last few years RBC has hired me to shoot their large gala and it is a blast each time! I get to see lots of people I used to work with, they put me up in a hotel and I get to eat at the fancy dinner during the awards. The organizer greets me with a hug and fusses over whether I've had enough to eat or drink, whether my room is ok and offers me drink tickets for the bar! (sad waste, I know!). It's a pretty cushy job even with the driving time and late hours taken into consideration. The paycheque is a nice perk too!
My friend Alisa used to be head of this department and hired me the first year but has since moved on to another area with RBC but I was able to have a quick breakfast visit while I was in town. She has always been a huge supporter and encourager to starting my business and convinced me my work was worth being paid for. Everyone should have an Alisa cheerleader in their corner to help them K I T (go watch Bowfinger if you want to know where we get that from haha! It got us through some crazy days when we worked at the downtown branch where we met)
