TV stations and film studios need cable carriers. Audio studios don't provide that many jobs for beginners. I became "Tonmeister" later, I started with a cable in my hands, standing beside a camera man. Holding a cable in your hands has less to do with audio engineering, but that is one way to start. Perhaps your job was more interesting, than rolling up cables, but I guess a lot of people start with exactly this job, or at least with a similar job at a TV station or film studio. Ok, I did not only roll up cables, I also was best boy and threaded in video tapes. Did anybody on this list start directly as audio engineer?
