It's all about running your own deal and staying true to the vision that has rewarded myself and so many others. Not my problem if YOUR vision of success is hazy and unrecognizable. I've been a branch mgr for 3 yrs and I am living the dream. |
1. The steely eyed glint is the 1000 yard stare of someone who was lied to every step of the way and did everything the company asked of them only to realize they were living the BAD dream.
2. Gordon Gecko went to jail to be butt-plugged by his fellow inmates. At ERAC, you are being butt-plugged by the inmates running the asylum.
3. Tony Montana was machine gunned to death after snorting about 10 gazillion 8-balls of coke. I think you need about that quantity of coke to work 60-80 hour workweeks while "living the dream."
4. Your Tony Montana suit is sharp only after the first few dry cleanings. This sharpness lasts until you sweat your ass off washing your first car of the day. After this point, you smell like the crevice between a camel's nuts and its legs, and your crisp new suit looks like the Croc Hunter's zoo outfit after a death roll in the mud with a big ole bloke of a croc.
5. My vision of success is a present with happiness and balance and a future with promise, neither of which is available at ERAC.
