Stress
Have you ever heard that saying about the plans of mice and men? It will gain new meaning when a public transit strike strands your concertgoers, or your intoxicated vocalist gets booed off the stage. There's a reason that many folks in the industry don't stay in the game for long; promotion can be incredibly stressful, especially when every setback gets blamed on you. You usually make your own hours, but sometimes getting the job done will mean putting your own needs aside. On the other hand, there's nothing like the rush you get from hitting one out of the park now and then. As you progress, you'll get a handle for timetables, how to get the best deal, and what to do when life throws you a curveball. And if all else fails, you'll have a nice toolbox of skills and contacts which will serve you well in different careers.
