Got the Job
Around eleven, the phone rang. It was Morty. "Well, I heard from casting."
"Oh?"
"You're getting the job. But they've changed the part. The character's not named Wally anymore."
"Frankie?"
"What?"
"Is he named Frankie now? I've always wanted to be named Frankie."
"No, Noah, he isn't named Frankie. He's named Good Samaritan Number One. And it's not a speaking part anymore."
"Wait a second -- do you mean they were so impressed with my audition that they changed the role to suit me?"
"Yeah, pretty much," Morty says, and sighs.
"How much does being an extra pay these days?" I ask Morty.
He says it's 100 bucks for the day. 100 bucks! That's more than Dirk Benedict has made in the last five years.
