The words of either someone immensely privileged or deathly allergic to bees.

Has enough money to say no == immensely privileged apparently

[-] yeather@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah, if 27k won’t significantly change your situation you are privileged.

We're not talking about 27k for one day of work. We're talking about an acting gig with months of training, rehearsals, costume fittings, make-up, traveling, shooting, reshoots. It's a full-time job.

I already have a job. I'd prefer to keep doing what I'm doing rather than that gig.

[-] yeather@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

The 27k this article references is for the bee stings the actor endured. Which more than likely happened over a few takes spread over a day. At an 8 hour work day, he made $3375 an hour that day.

Bro you wouldn’t have to act in Hollywood, you would simply need to get stung by a bee or multiple bees until the total number of stings is 27. Pretty easy money unless you’re allergic.

I’d do this for 10% of that price without hesitation. I’ve been stung my many bees in my life and never got paid for any.

That’s a good point. I suppose that depends how many in the mouse and how many on the face.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I'm neither of those things, but I think I'm partially allergic to them. Last time I got stung by a bee in my foot, it swelled up so bad I couldn't get a shoe on, and it was intensely painful. I have a high pain threshold, and it fucking hurt, bad. What's weird is that I don't have the same reaction to yellow jacket stings. Possibly because they inject less venom, but idk.
