I need to vent. A lot.
I just had a friend ask me for a favor on Facebook, and he had the opportunity himself a week ago - and he didn't friggen show up!!! I was like dude, come hang out - whatevs. Nada!!! Didn't hear from him, didn't ... anything.
THEENNNNNN, flash forward a few days and he wants me to call in a favor with said friend that he could have met himself?? Are you fucking kidding me??!?!
Lemme just make something UNBELIEVABLY clear - relationships don't just "happen," they are cultivated. I show up every. single. day. for life, and every. single. meeting. with whoever to either learn something, help someone out - whatevs!! NOTHING GETS HANDED TO YOU!!!! The level of arrogance that this tech start up is just so magical that of COURSE this person would want to hear about it ... I am disgusted. Get over yourself. For reals. Or at least DO have that great of an idea and pray to god you can just cash out early, haha. I dunno. whatevs.
But for real, that is THE biggest button that I can't handle people pushing. Do NOT use me for connections when you had the opportunity to meet said connection and failed to for one reason or another.
Get off your ass, work really hard, and keep your head down so you can learn. Period end of sentence.
BAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I've known the kid for years, I'll always love him - but what a fucking idiot professionally speaking. Opportunity gets handed to you on a platter and you say you're not hungry?!?!?! ::stupidity leak:: It's business, man. I might adore you as a person - but I have ZERO tolerance for stupidity professionally speaking.
K, I feel better. Had breakfast/ lunch with this duderino with a start up this morning. He found me on OKC when I put out the broadcast the other night (and we all know how that went).
Had a great burrito, he and I were talking about his start up and I inquired about his experience with online dating - pretty rad. Then, as I was leaving I was looking for a coffee shop to work out of - didn't like the one closest by ... walked out, then realized after all that ice tea I had to use the restroom ... went back into the restaurant to use the bathroom and as I am walking out I bumped into the sister of one of my oldest friends in LA.
Actually, remember the CAA story?? And how I had dinner with one of the agents there through my dad's college roommate? Same circle. The cousin is this chickadee Noelle, and Noelle's best friend was Amanda - and this is Amanda's sister Rachel, who lived with her at the time. And now oddly enough, I live a block away from their old apartment. OMG my head hurts - but yeah - I was LITERALLY walking out, she was holding the door and I go OMG OMG OMG!!! She then stares at me equally shocked but trying to place.
RACHELLLLLLL!!! I say with a hug, it's Jen Friel!!
HOLY CRAP she said!!!
We caught up for a minute, exchanged numbers, and now I'm grabbing beers with one of my oldest LA friends that I haven't talked to in like 5 years after bumping into her outside a restroom in Cambridge, MA. Like seriously?? Is this happening right now???
INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alrite, gotta find a mouse since my mighty mouse decided to RIP. Need to finish editing yesterday's footage, then revamp a storyline so I can film this radio station thingie tonight. I'm actually pretty stoked - I'm going to be on a boat!! YAYYY!!! BOATS!!!!!!
Good shit nerderinos. Good shit! Peace love and lollipops!
