Alec Addison Ingel-Al • 21 • Stage Hand • Hero • Milo Ventimigliawhat is your full name?Alec Addison Ingel. Believe me, I know it’s weird. do you have any nicknames?Al. Ali if you’re creative. where is birth place?Chicago, Illinois. that makes your nationality...Americanwhen is your birth dateJanuary 1st. So I’ve been told by the social workers. how old does that make you?21what is your religion?Ha. No thanks. I don’t have one. what is your sexuality?Lots of personal questions, huh? This how job interviews always are? Not that it matters, but I’m straight. Sorry if you were trying to pick me up. what is your job here at disney?Stage hand, hopefully. I’m more than willing to lug equipment around since I’m not really big on being one of the entertainers in front of the kids and the crowds all the time. I like crowds but not for the reasons you’ll want me to like them. So...probably best if I just stay away from them. what is/was your major?Didn’t go to college and won’t be going to college.who do you best resemble?Milo Ventimiglia? I think that’s his name. That’s what people say, anyway. He’s in TV and movies I guess. what disney character is most like you?Gonna have to go with Aladdin on this one, since we’re both street rats and thieves. ---what do you enjoy?Having a full stomach. When the cops aren’t after me. Probably shouldn’t be saying that in a job interview...but it’s true. New city, new start right? What else...having a place to sleep is always good, that whole roof over your head thing. Being warm, and Florida’s definitely nicer than Illinois for that. Drinking’s nice, when I can afford it. Cigarettes, when I can afford them. Something calming about it. Man, that all sounds so basic doesn’t it? Guess that just shows you what my life’s been like. Oh wait, I like classic rock too. There you go. Something halfway normal. what do you not enjoy?Rain. Being hungry. Being chased by the cops. Juvy. Foster homes. Social workers. Stuck up brats who think they have tough lives. People who try to ‘save’ me. I don’t need saving. what do you fear most?Nothing. I don’t know...dying I guess? Been close a few times and sometimes it even seems like a nice option. But I don’t really want to. Being homeless again would be...well, let’s just say I really need this job or else I’m screwed. what are your goals in life?Just...being somebody. More than the nobody I’ve always been told I am. I mean, I’ve survived this long and that’s something. I don’t know, I guess I just came here because it felt right and if I can hold down some kind of job, I won’t just be a street rat any more. I can be some kind of productive member of society. I don’t want to have to live off anyone’s charity, not that I ever have but people have tried. what are your flaws?Guess I’ve got a bit of a temper. I’m a pretty easy liar, too, when I’m trying to charm people. Maybe I do that too much. I’ve been told I’ve got an attitude but who trusts those government social workers anyway? I don’t trust them and I don’t really trust anybody else. Is that a flaw? Not trusting people? Judge for yourself. what are your turn ons?A girl who’s down to earth and won’t look down her nose at me. Smart, but not obnoxious about it. Someone who can put up with all my crap. I like to think I don’t have much but I do. It’s hard because I don’t trust easy. So someone who’s willing to take the time to earn that trust and be patient with me would be good. A killer figure and long hair doesn’t hurt either. what are your turn offs?Snobs. Idiots. A sense of entitlement. People who complain about every little stupid thing that happens to them. Girls who can’t handle sarcasm or teasing. I don’t really like really short hair either. what is your best memory?Damn. Well...there was a space of a couple weeks when I was about sixteen, having run away from another crappy foster home, where I lucked out and found this pretty decent abandoned house. It was kinda run down but it was like a palace to me, working fridge, heater, a real bed and everything. I got to live there for a while and it was nice being in out of the rain and the weather. There was even another guy who found the place and we ended up sharing it. Probably the closest I came to having a friend, since we kind of managed to strike up a kind of deal. One of the best times of my life really. We managed to scrounge up enough food and I actually spent a long time with someone I didn’t openly hate. It was a pretty good time. One of the best, actually. what is your worst memory?The foster home I got put in when I was twelve. The four days I stayed were the worst four of my life. You don’t need gory details, but let’s just say the guy in that house was a mean drunk who liked to take his shit out on other people. Four days and then I escaped and four was more than enough. where do you see yourself in 10 years?Honestly? Working here, hopefully. Don’t see what else I’m really going to be doing and at least I’ll have a steady income and a place to live here. Weather’s nice too, so I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere.---who is your mother? how old is she? what does she do?Your guess is as good as mine. There were papers at the adoption agency or social services that someone probably has with her name on it but I never got to see them. Never got to see her, either, at least not that I remember. who is your father? how old is he? what does he do?Him I did see once. I was five and he came to the agency for who knows what reason. They told me my dad was there and I was pretty excited. He looked at me, told me his name was Connor Ingel and that he was my dad. He spent an hour talking to me, most of which I don’t remember, and then he left and I never saw him again. Kind of a shitty thing to do, really, but whatever. do you have any brothers?It’s possible, but I don’t know them if I do. do you have any sisters?Pretty much the same answer as for the brothers. any other relatives i should know about?Nope. In case you couldn’t tell, not real big on the relatives. where else have you worked?Legally or illegally? Probably should mention the ones that weren’t exactly off the record but we can just say I moved goods for a price. And sometimes I sold them. Haven’t really been hired for many legit jobs though I did manage to lug boxes for a couple weeks at a bargain center when I was seventeen before they called social services on me. Social services always messes things up. Definitely glad I’m of age now so they can’t. where do you live?I’ve got a room in the Contemporary Resort. Best place I’ve ever lived. Definitely the cleanest, anyway. --- Sam • Central Standard Time • 10+bree @ caution 2.0
