    Part-time: It’s just pocket money to them, it doesn’t matter if they lose business as it makes no odds if they work or not, they can drop all their bookings at a moments notice if they wanted. If they were any good they’d go full-time.

    Full Time: Couldn't get a decent job so does this between benefit payments, has to do each and every job comes his way as it pays for his fags and red stripe. Gets jaded and eventually becomes multi op providing a second rate service.

    Part Time: does this because they want to, can cherry pick the better events and work for nicer clients and rocks everyone because they can focus on each event each week. Prices appropriately which brings the reputation of the industry up.


    yeah you can spin it anyway you want.

    Had a convo with a friend I bumped into yesterday that went a bit like:

    "Are you working tonight then?"

    "yeah"

    "Where abouts?"

    "The Botanical Gardens in Edinburgh"

    "What like THE botanical gardens?"

    "Aye..."

    "Oh, do you do places like that often?"

    "Aye well it's all nice hotels and bespoke wedding venues normally, why?"

    "It's just when I heard you were a DJ I thought you did pubs and social clubs and stuff."



    I take it as a bit of a compliment to be fair nowadays

    And if those of us who habitually work in pubs and social clubs and stuff were sensitive little souls, we could take that another way.
