LAID OFF

Getting laid off stings like hell. "I've got the scars to prove it & I'm no Miss Congeniality."

The last time I got 'job eliminated' led to the creation of My Damn Channel. We pulled together a small band of like-minded souls determined to build a mass media machine - outside the old system.  

Over 150 actors, comedians, filmmakers, musicians and our tiny staff of 10 have produced over 400 videos to date. We're closing in on 40 million total views. 

Once big audience came - sponsors signed up - and soon after Turkey Day, we'll be announcing our new VP of Advertising, Partnerships & Strategy. 

Enough about us - more about you.
 
If you're laid off, downsized, job eliminated, fired, creative...and filled with angst, energy & a video camera.....we're open to your ideas about how to build a My Damn Channel for you. We're pursuing sponsors now to pay you to create/vent/entertain/communicate.
