What the hell is a fresher?

[-] helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 45 points 1 year ago

Fresh out of college. Never heard that term before either, but "off campus" is the clue I'm going with.

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

It’s the common term in India, not sure where else.

Not in the US

[-] CelloMike@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

In the UK it's a first-year university student, what Americans would call a freshman, but I doubt that's what the meme means

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Someone without working experience. Usually fresh graduates.

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

Like others said, fresh graduate. Though in my country we call it freshie.

It's in a Corpo's best interest to pay everyone as little as possible, thus making the world a worse place for everyone but shareholders and Execs.

During the pandemic, I was watching a lot of porn and wanted to learn the business side of things. From what I learned, a girl's first shoot is often the most money she'll earn for one shoot.

They can earn more but often require riskier sex (e.g. multiple men, more kink, anal, etc.) but for vanilla boy/girl scenes, it's usually it.

Women can often make more if they become famous enough that the demand is there but it's kind of like high school basketball players thinking they'll make the NBA.

One thing that did surprise me was that there is not as much exploitation as I thought there would be. There is, of course, some exploitation but, much like any industry, there are shitty people everywhere. Most of the adult industry are pretty good people trying to do good things.

From what I learned, a girl’s first shoot is often the most money she’ll earn for one shoot.

Why though? Can't she just claim it's her first shoot for a couple gigs at least?

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

It depends on how she enters the industry. The vast majority of women enter via the "casting couch" or amateur "professional" route. If she has the right agent, she'll get the same rate across the "usual" companies. She might get the most from the first shoot (maybe by $100-200) for the "privilege" of shooting her first video.

The companies are very familiar with each other and they work with the agent. So if they find out they weren't the first, the companies might not work with the agent again.
