DISQUS

So it's cool that, after watching that video, I'm reminded that I couldn't give two flying fucks about commerce. I'm sure I'll be shining some guy's shoes somewhere down the line, but the trick is, I can also leave and have nothing to lose.

And isn't THAT a bitch? Be very, very wary of the people with nothing to lose. They remember that everything you work for is shit...

Cheers.

And those with nothing to lose are the fearless people I love so much- Swing for the fences, or don;t swing at all......

Reminds me of my time at a particular company in New Jersey. It didn't matter what you did yesterday: " What have you done for me today?" And most if not all would do any job if it was for enough money. One guy went to Malaysia when his wife was due...it's what the job required.

Where is that company today? Oh, bought out by its competitors.

When you are doing the sale, or getting the pitch don't forget that it is your life and time, and if they choose guilt as their weapon evaluate their claims before you spend all night fixing their mistakes.

That clip could be about some tech project as easily as selling real-estate. Depending on your perspective it can all be commerce the bargaining chip is your life, make sure you are making the choices and not just reacting.

First prize, trip to Hawaii, second prize, set of steak knives, third prize... you're fired.

"Penultimate," Chris? No, ultimate.

IMO, one of the all-time great cameos. And one of my favorite films.

I will have to pass this lesson onto my 5 year old...or not!

And that scene didn't even have Pacino in it... amazing.
