Life’s Returns

As a talent for hire for various off-network activities, Versatile Performer (VP) was not spared from the detrimental effects of the pandemic. Events, such as weddings and parties, were cancelled, regardless of size. Out of town gigs and corporate gatherings that needed entertainers were no longer scheduled. People strictly followed the non-contact rule imposed by experts and organizers did not want to risk arrest for disobeying social gathering. With his gigs having no clear schedule, VP found his savings dwindling down and he had to think of ways to fend for the expenses of his family.

VP sent feelers through his friends to companies that might provide opportunities for him to earn with his talent. Unfortunately, the company he was targeting said that certain talents were prioritized over applicants, regardless of their reputation. To complicate the situation, VP’s kin had to be hospitalized and hospital expenses added to his woes. While he thought of contacting his former workmates, he was embarrassed as most were in a similar situation.

VP reached out to well-off talent, who generously extended financial help. However, he still had to find the means to support his daily needs. Thus, he could no longer be choosy and any project, whether big or small meant much to him. As long as he could earn, he accepted the project. Meanwhile, other workers who felt he was quite presumptuous earlier on, could not help make comments that VP has met his bad karma fast.

‘Even if things don't unfold the way you expected, don't be disheartened or give up. One who continues to advance will win in the end.’ ― Daisaku Ikeda

    1. 12.49AM Definitely not! X is one of the lucky talents who has a teleserye running plus his endorsements. He also has a reputation to be very frugal and good at savings. Guess again!
