Getting Paid to Watch Netflix

I just finished another pet-sitting  gig. This one was down on the farm. Cons? I made a lot of hens really agitated and the Labradors hogged the bed. Pros? They had a dry sauna and a fire place.

This is an extra business of mine. I have really found a niche market. As my customers have told me anybody who loves animals as much as I do is usually a pet hoarder who has their own brood to take care of and can't do overnights. But thanks to a bitter divorce, I only visit my pets now. So I am free and clear to move right in to someone else's house and eat their food, watch their Netflix, use their WiFi, play with their animals (who I don't have to pay vet bills for), and if I'm lucky use their dry saunas.

Just an aside. Dr. Oz says that saunas are super healthy. It must be true. I Googled it. Supposedly they make your heart rate increase thus burning calories just sitting there. Suffice to say I crushed candy in there all week. You also sweat out all these toxins and it is good for your sinuses. Plus, I could here the Ted Talks from the Roku in the living room from the sauna. Perfect.

That's the one down side to getting paid to watch Netflix. The damn Recently Watched category. I was out in Tuckerton last summer and decided to binge watch both seasons of Orange is the New Black. I hadn't seen it at all. Then I realized I didn't want my client to think all I did was sit around and watch soft porn all day. Thank god I could pepper in some documentaries and comedy specials. Whew. Have you seen Blackfish by the way? It is really good. Screw you Seaworld.

Michelle Tomko's comedy is a fervent blend of tomboy sensibilities courtesy of the older brothers she grew up with in the Midwest and the barrage of perimenopausal chaos the East Coast world has heaped upon her. She pulls her humor from everyday observations and classic stories of family, travel, pets, and adversity. With razor-sharp crowd work and improvisational skills to the rock-solid timing of a veteran performer, Michelle’s act is not to be missed!
