Actor's Attitude Leads to Job Loss

How should one deal with personal problems on a professional level? This young, teleserye actor TA has been acting strangely lately. He is accused of unprofessionalism, always being late in his engagements. At the grand press conference of his latest movie where he was one of the main cast, he was a no-show. The producer was so mad that she almost sued YA for failure to do his part for the movie's promotion. Media promo was a part of his contract.

TA resorts to all kinds of alibi's and excuses to justify his many shortcomings. TA's unprofessionalism had been getting on the nerves of people he works with. During rehearsal of a weekly show where he is part of, TA came in late and asked the production staff PS what his songs would be. PS was so pissed as all study songs of performers were already sent to them days ahead. PS complained to his handler who in turn said that she's helpless on him, and that she could not do anything anymore. Even TA's management seemed to have given up on him.

Latest casualty of TA's notoriety is his current teleserye, although still airing at present had been officially cut short by five weeks. Network unit head NH had to do it as its uncontrollable lead, who is at odds and uncooperative with the director and staff, continues to self-destruct. NH deemed it wise move to cut it before TA could cause further damage to the whole production. As a consequence, the whole team lost a sizable income (in talent fees, salaries, allowances) at a time when they need it most as the holidays is just a few days away. Hence, TA became their source of pre-holiday blues, what can be more frustrating?

One may ask: What has caused TA's sudden misbehavior? Heard from the grapevine that TA's being jilted by his girlfriend had a lot to do with his big turnaround. Seems like girlfriend was his security blanket for the most part of his thriving career. And now that she's gone, coldness is slowly setting in, literally and figuratively. Others say that he is hooked on certain substance.

Friends hope that TA wakes up soon. Competition in the business is very tough. No one waits for you, there are just too many takers. You maybe in-demand now. But one miscalculation will make you irrelevant tomorrow.
