Take This Job And.....

Starting out at the bottom and crawling your way to the top is common in many industries and in entertainment and creative fields especially. Workers spend years fetching coffee and job hopping to build a resume that will hopefully, someday, get them to their dream position. The years spent fighting for it are rough - but with a solid group of friends around, it is possible to get through anything.

The hard-scrabble years are noticeably absent from movies and television shows that depict twenty-somethings having their first go at their career. If we were to believe the media, everyone lives in gorgeous apartments in New York while barely working twenty hour weeks.

At last, a breath of fresh air has entered the world of the cute New Yorker making-her-way niche. The Underlings is a new web-series focused on a group of friends who are "underlings" in their various fields. Comprised of short episodes that you can watch on your lunch break, the show follows the cast through their job, love and friendship struggles with a sassy sense of humor and a refreshing dose of reality.

Created by an all-female team of funny lady writers and producers, The Underlings is a full web experience, with new music and discounts for already affordable stores on the website. Welcome to the web, ladies - we're glad you're here.
