I just had to throw this in since a lot of people are
assuming I did not get paid for the balloons I took to the schools.
First of all this job involved a good number of school shows, which I was
paid very well for, I was also compensated for my time and materials  to
make
the extra balloons to take to give to children after the show.
There were too many kids to even begin to twist for them individually,
so the kids were entertained, got a balloon and I made a lot of money.
You should never assume.  There are always exceptions, I would prefer
to twist for a few people and entertain as I twist, but there are some
cases where it pays better to do a show to entertain a good number of kids,
twist something during the show, and assure them that everyone will
get a balloon after.  As a matter of fact, school shows pay much better
than any restaurant job, or other type of party I have had.
If you want to make a living in this business, that is a great venue to
get into.
