Regional car commercial in ATL — $800/day, this is what all gigs should be

Booked a non-union regional commercial for a car dealership chain in Atlanta. $800/day for one day. 9-hour day. Real catering — like, choices, not just one option. The director rehearsed with us before rolling. Hair and makeup had their own area. The client was on set but didn't interfere. Usage: regional TV + digital, 6 months. Totally reasonable for the rate. Paid in 10 days. Ten. Days. I almost fell over. This is what non-union work should look like. Professional, respectful, fair rate, fair usage, prompt payment. It's not that hard.
