Village Squire, 1979-04, Page 7many part-time personnel. The show's budget amounts to about
$2000 an episode.
"1 guess that's why it's more intense here. You go through so
many things. It seems like Eve been doing this for a long time,
day after day and the pressures are compacted. I mean the
morning show and Wingham seem a long time ago.
"I used to enjoy getting up in the morning and doing the piece
and some mornings it was the same and some mornings I was
bored by it. but 1 miss the music and keeping up with that. 1 used
to get up in the morning and say 'Hey. what are we going to do
today that's going to be nice and exciting and good'.
"It's a little more structured here, you don't get that
opportunity. You have to mutually decide what are we going to
do and so you don't get that kind of feeling of personal output.
What you have to realize is that you have to put your personality
across in something else."
You also realize. he says. how transient the business is, how
vulnerable you are so you have to be constantly examining
yourself to make sure that that's what you want to do. "You have
to keep watching all the things and know that what you're doing
is worthwhile. It isn't just a matter of doing a job, you have to say
'Am I getting satisfaction from the job and is the job I'm doing
worthwhile' because if there isn't any reason to stay. You're not
staying because you're building up security of pension. You're
not doing it because you're going to be guaranteed a job
tomorrow. It has to be worthwhile today. We live with the fact
that maybe next year is .the last year of the show."
But for now the job is worthwhile for Jim Swan. It has opened
new doors and allowed him to meet new people and for now, at
least, he seems content. The country boy is happy in the bright
lights of the city.
THE LOVER
He comes with the light
He leaves with the night.
For precious moments. security surrounds me
Like a soft warm blanket of dreams,
It is not what it seems
My blanket of dreams,
He goes to his obligations and fears
I'm left with my questions and tears.
Will he come again
Is he really my friend.
Security is just a word
Until you've felt the pain.
Why do 1 play this game
The ending is always the same.
