Storytelling 2.0: Phone Bone

It's the late 90's and a 20 year old virgin gets a second job as a phone sex operator when she moves to San Diego to work at a Backpacker's Hostel. The need for the second job is financial but fueled by much darker and more disturbing motivations. Almost three months of working the lines accumulating interactions that range from the awkwardly absurd, titillating and heartwarming to horrific and disgusting she ends up learning more about herself, her coworkers and men that she expects.
