Meet Blinky Bluffington, the world-renowned ventriloquist who's been on the verge of getting fired from every job he's ever had. But don't worry, Blinky's got some tips and tricks to share on how to avoid getting canned.
"The key is to be really, really good at what you do," says Blinky. "But if that's not working out, just pretend you're good at it. Trust me, it's all about confidence."
"And don't be afraid to use a little bit of sleight of hand," he adds. "A well-placed 'uh-huh' or 'uh-uh' can go a long way in making your audience think you're actually doing something."
"Just remember, it's all about the art of deception," Blinky says with a wink. "And if all else fails, just make a quick exit, and blame it on your 'ventriloquist's cramps'."
