Best Boy/Lead Rigger responsibilities included staffing and supervision of the crew. Materials and equipment ordering and inventory. Handled payroll and employee timecards. Collaborated with team members to complete large-scale projects to ensure timely completion of television and movie sets. Loading and unloading material and equipment trucks via forklift and hand truck.

Started as a runner moved up to become a pit clerk and finally as a trader. As a runner, I took orders from desk clerks and brought the orders to the pit clerks. As a pit clerk,I took orders from the desk brokers via arbitrage and then gave it to the order filling broker. Finally, as a trader I bought and sold Euro Dollar futures, trying to maintain a flat position, hopefully with a positive profit and loss statement.
