I was a researcher on it, right?
Okay?
The researcher...
you were considered successful by how many stories you actually found that got made i had the highest percentage of this team of a dozen researchers by far but then i got fired why did i get fired because i was too good at the job i wasn't playing the political game i wasn't brown nosing sorry that expression with the uh with the boss right
I had a bit of an attitude, but the results, who the fuck cares about my attitude?
I gave you results and yet I was fired because of people's stupid, stupid egos and stupid political games that they play.
They don't care about results.
They care about how they feel about themselves, about their ego, about how people think about them.
That's more important than results.
And this crosses the line in business, in warfare, General Patton.
the great American general who had some of his own issues and problems, you know, he was kind of sidelined from the war effort in World War II because he was kind of abrasive and difficult.
He was going, but man, I marched through Sicily, I marched through Italy, I defeated the Nazis here and there.
What difference does it make?
Well, no, even in warfare, he got sidelined because he wasn't playing the political game.
in entertainment, in law, in business, in government, in sports.
I can give you examples because I deal with a lot of athletes and managers and coaches who come to me with their problems.
This goes through sports.
It goes through everything.
It's a theme through everything.
So you two, I love the fact that you collaborate, but I can guarantee if you brought a third person in that you were working with, also sort of egos and political games will start emerging.
