3 Fired ? Fine I’ll find something else. (2/2)

Uncle Oscar seemed to hesitate and finally launched himself

”I.. I'm sorry Sam. I know your situation but mine isn't that good too, it's a hard decision but I had to take it for the benefit of the company... the company is dismissing a few workers because we can't pay them anymore. We're keeping only a few full time workers.”

He didn't need to end his sentence, he wouldn't call Sam to tell him this if he wasn't amongst the dismissed workers.

Even though Sam was ready to head a bad news this one was definitely the worse he could hear at the moment. This work was his only source of income, if he lost it he couldn't even pay his rent. He had to do something but uncle Oscar was closed to any negotiation. Sam left the company dejectedly, as the owner of the company was his uncle he would pay him more than any other place for the same amount of work...

After a while Sam was home lying on the couch and thinking of what he could do now.

Even after thinking for a long while he couldn't think of a job that could pay him enough, the jobs he was the most qualified to do were physical ones like carrying or moving heavy things, even more since he had gotten the +10 strength points that he didn't even have had time to try.

After thinking about a lot of unconvincing alternatives he was about to give up for the moment when a voice resounded in his head, this voice made him happy just hearing it.

[System awakening - Master please make a choice :

- Level 1 singing skill book.

- Level 1 writing skill book.

The system is nearing the required energy to wake up completely, please be patient master.]

This notification came right on time, Sam was thinking where or who did this heaven sent gift came from when a pop up appeared in front of him. Both skills could help him make money, Sam had heard that people on YouTube made good money if they did enough clicks... if his singing skill were up to par he could make a place for himself on that platform and if there was a level 1 book there was obviously next levels books so he could definitely do well in that domain. He could also write a book and sell it but would a rookie's book sell enough ? And even if he sold enough writing a book wasn't a one day story. For the songs it was easier as he didn't have to sing his own songs but could make covers. Sam hesitated for a bit before clicking on the singing skill book.

Now the question was if a Level 1 book was enough to make him famous, a lvl 1 boxing book was around the same as a black belt taekwondo user. He guessed a lvl 1 book was around the level of a very good amateur or a rookie professional, this was only in the case where all the lvl 1 books gave the same amount of experience and technique.

Now Sam has to find a cheap recording studio to rent for the shortest time it would take him to record his first song. He went in his room and turned on the old computer, it was an old model from Dell. It took around a minute to completly launch, he first went on YouTube to check other people's cover and to inspire himself, he couldn't do a bad job as it would definitely reduce his view count if the video was of a bad quality. Then he went on the internet browser and checked for the studios not to far and called them to check their prices. Finally he found one, now he needed a camera of a good enough quality but when he checked the prices they ranged from 600€ to exorbitant prices like 3000€. And those were only the amateur materials, he preferred not to check the professional ones. The price was too much but he found a site where he could buy it in many times so the price was divided in 4. He went on and ordered his camera, for the next few days he got the rest ready, he chose the song he wanted to cover and started training his singing.
