ignorance might be bliss but stupidity is not

the chris rock slash will smith slap incident reminded me of something that happened to me at work many years ago. at the end of the night, a new dancer took off her wig and came out of the dressing room completely bald. i was so shocked and didn’t know what to say so i decided to ask her if she was doing chemo as a joke. she said yes, and it was not going well and this might be the last time i see her.

i also watched a reaction youtube video of the movie “9 to 5” today and that also reminded me of something stupid i did. when the movie was about to come out, the secretary of the company i worked at told me she had been invited to go to a special screening of the movie. i asked her why they would invite secretaries to see a movie.

that incident also reminded me of how we were bidding on a project for the u.s. postal service and the marketing guy fed-exed the bid to them to their washington dc main office. then my boss told me they fired him. i asked why.

it’s really amazing how long i’ve managed to stay alive and not get run over by a car.
