I gotta tell you, friend, this most UNPOLITICALLY correct thingie.
The women part (except for rare ones like a certain Dani, hehe).
But in general ...
But anyway, I'll always remember a conversation I once had with Marc the African Silverback Gorilla on people not getting to messages.
I cannot understand, friend, why people are so damn rude - and it's getting WORSE.
I mean, I told Marc the following.
"I usually give people at least 24 hours to reply - if they dont, it means they simply dont want to"
He agreed.
And then he said this
"And, it's sheer disrespect".
Which it is, but at the time I focused more on the "dont want" part i.e. they want to get back, they'll get back asap!
Its just getting worse - to be precise, more annoying.
I can just hear the Tom Tom's snicker.
"he's frustrated".
Not as much as YOU, my friend (to the Tom Tom's).
I'm happy - very so - with my life and the direction in which it's going, but I DO want sensible people to have, you know, a conversation with!
Not just idiotic one liners of "HI!" and then crickets (waiting for entertainment).
Or, stupidity to the tune of "we're too busy" - but not to update social media by the minute.
They just dont WANT TO.
Such as Bozo Glyn, when I tried calling him.
"I'm doing other things!" his voice tailed off (he was in ass mostly likely).
Naturally, this getting back doesn't need to be taken to an extreme - I usually allow people 24 hours to get back.
If you're busy, truly so, there is NO Need to answer the phone "now".
But, at least return calls.
And, these days?
Send an email with an issue that requires thought and resolution?
Crickets.
Send an email that is "copy and paste" in terms of responses?
Youll get speedy responses before you even think about it.
"Anther one out of the way", you can almost hear the person sigh.
And, business wise?
IF there's money to be made from you, watch the sheer speed of replies!
Of course, once said dough is minted - service?
Goes down the toilet!
And of course, if its a guy dealing with a woman, she'll eventually pull the "he's rude to women" bullshit when you PUSH like you would with a man.
Men, beyond a certain point cannot pull that excuse.
And thats why despite my love for women in general, I never ever do business with them.
I've written about why it's a recipe for disaster doing business with significant others for one...
And it's true.
Anyway, these people that dont get back aren't too busy.
ANd when you point out stuff like
"Life, slow, eh" (with the snicker)
OR their relentless social media CRAP with
"Everyone's too busy, yet always on their phone!"
They dont reply.
Not necessarily because you aren't important.
BEcause they're sitting and sTEWING, simmering!
"How dare he say that"
"I wish my life was like his!"
I swear, the fake feeling I get from most people - until and unless you light a fuckin fire under their asses has gotta be seen to be believed.
And most of all ,these days, people are just retreating into their shells, and amazingly enough, a time when they should be giving the MOST - focus on TAKE.
And, rebut all help that come their way unless it's idiotic selfies in the Jim (requisite with makeup and the right pose, of course!) - and showing the right amount of skin - or so forth.
And, unless it's something that requires NO effort, in that case you won't be able to serve the customers, so many of them will be.
Ugh
What a pain.
Anyway I had to get this off my chest while doing a "Lumberjack Lodestone Fitness" workout, and remember, that pre-order - we're nearing the completion of the cycle - my fingers FLY as I write that last bit due to reasons I will not mention now.
But it's nearing completion, so get it now at the price it's being offered at. Post pre-order, watch the price shoot up, up, UP.
Best,
Rahul Mookerjee
PS - No, I'm not going to "go easy on people". At a certain point, it comes time to take charge of your life and just DO it, for eff's sake!!!
I can just hear it,
"Thats great if you're life is great, Rahul! But not everyone is the same!"
Well, if you truly think that way - those that do - and are dissatisfied with life, it's YOUR fault, friend, NO-ONE ELSE's!
