Huh, so I guess if this is the norm I won't be allowed in the states.

Sorry, if this is annoying you guys, just really agitating me.

Just had a client meeting with a guy who did just that (talk about business and property and make a poo poo ton of money on it) wanted me in there to discuss making videos, then didn't know if he wanted videos, then asked if I could help with his marketing (sure if its videos), and help with his website and administrative work (uh I run a small production company). I think maybe he wants videos?

You should be agitated. I'm white as gently caress and I'm p dang agitated.

I'm waiting for my buddy to get back from a trip so we can get together and make something important. If I'm gonna fight, i want to fight doing something a little more personal.

Probably gonna donate some money soon, once I get my paycheck next week.

That's pretty unfortunate and scary, but it could also be a lot worse. Hope things get sorted without too much incident.

I just got a plumber to come after a month of phone calls. The water in the sink, shower and toilet has been flowing really slowly since there was a major overhaul of the apartment buildings pipes. They fixed the sink for us a few days before Christmas and said they'd come back later for the rest but no matter how often I called no one showed up until today. And then it turned out that the toilet, which might be the original toilet from when the building was built in like 1962, isn't fixable since sometime in the passed it got a bit smashed and the previous owner fixed it himself but in the process hosed up all the connections. So we'll need to flush with a bucket until we tear this toilet out and get a new one.




also I just got engaged which is pretty neat.

O it sounds like he will pay. Just uh, he doesn't want all of his videos to be done by a professional dedicated video company.

So just mentioned to him he should just hire a marketing guy that has basic filming and editing skills and hire us for the big projects that would be lead generators and draws. He seemed kind of interested in the idea, but wasn't sure. Originally, he came to us wanting only videos, then kind of sprung the entire administrative/marketing/website caveat on us.

Congrats Freudian Slipper (on the engagement not the toilet)

E: editing some of work with the guy in it, he numerously mentions that he makes 300 an hour, so uh I know he can afford it.

I think if you saw this trailer you've already seen the movie. Also it looks really bad. Gary Oldman channeling David Warner looks kind of fun though.

Slavery never went away, they just disproportionately prosecute/sentence black people for minor crimes and call it "prison" now.

get a contract before you do any work. Bragging about how much you make is classic "I make this much because I don't pay other people for work they do for me" behavior.

But those regulations are strangling small businesses! :downs:

On the upside, this means that protest signs that say "We Are All Gay" will be popular.
