Many people, with or without degrees or experience, have dealt with the struggles of finding a job. Get A Job gives a comedic input to the hardships of getting a job while still chasing your dreams.


This timeless film goes into the day and the life of an unemployed young comedian (Will) and his childhood friend (Terry) who decides to pursue their dreams to establish a comedy club. Living with his Mother-in-law, the pressure to generate an income peaks.


The Director of Get A Job, James Reed Jr., was raised by a single mother in Chicago in a family of entrepreneurs. In the mist of his college years studying Finance, his rededication to Christ powered his move towards film. He then transferred to a film school, graduated from Columbian College of Chicago. After working in and out of his field, the birth of his son impelled him to strive for his full potential, putting most of his effort into bringing about his production company, Grown Child Pictures.


Now the director has graced the world with his first feature film looking inside the common difficulty of seeking employment. This comedy was stemmed from a woman's statement that he overheard, about not giving a homeless man on the street a dime because a man can always get a job. Mr. Reed felt that he would help and Get A Job tells you why?
