Ahhh I miss IA. The only time in my life I was paid $1000 to stand around for three hours because the road crew forgot about us.

Not helping the general “IA are all lazy” stereotype. There’s a reason your pants pockets are called “union gloves”. It’s because every stagehand has a story about seeing a bunch of IA workers standing around wearing union gloves, while the rest of the crew is busting their asses.
