Costanza was unemployed for the longest time and there was an episode where he sort of discusses job ideas with Jerome. Being a sportscaster was one of the jobs he wanted. Somehow, he was able to get a job with the Yankees and even scored a spacious office that was huge in The Opposite.
Now, I can't say that I scored a job as nice as his, but I did get a job that purports to be the happiest place on earth. I'm not at the actual happiest place, but at a division and so far everyone seems genuinely happy to be there. I haven't started work yet, but after an interview and a meet and greet, people still seem genuinely happy. It's a vast turnaround from my last job, where few people seemed happy at any given time, including my manager who was known to go on tirades. In fact, he went a bit nuts on some things like Costanza and I had a VP who talked just like Steinbrenner. The VP could never ever sit still. Always moving and asking a bunch of questions. He even had the salt and pepper hair.
Anyway, the work seems a bit complex to me and I'll definitely be learning as I go. I am sure I can do the job, but I hope I don't truly pull a Costanza and screw it all up somehow, like get traded to Paramount for some South Park huggable dolls or some such.
