<p>gladiatorbird,
I don’t know, I did not notice any “disparagement”. I saw excitement about making final decision/choice (a tough one) based on financial reasons.</p>
<p>The original post is absolutely great and originated probably in our previous discussion in another topic about a film school visit and how ALL the students raised their hands when asked “who wants to be a film director”?
ALL of them? 
People should understand the ratio of directors and the rest of the crew and expect what is reasonable.
So thank you, digmedia, for this topic! :)</p>
