We are forced to realize it##Q##s a business FIRST
Yes my industry brethren and sistrens. We are immature and foolish if we think the world revolves around us when we are not able to bring anything to the table and contribute but we are only coming with our hands out. I know it sounds cruel and mean but the favor that you did someone 20 years ago has probably been repaid 20 times. In addition, someone has done YOU a favor and could very well be complaining about YOU not returning the favor. People working in the industry are trying to keep their OWN damn jobs and remain relevant. This is an incredibly stressful industry that has been cut by more than half since 2000. People have to progress forward instead of looking back in order to keep coming back… to work. Why not call an old acquaintance with an idea that can help you BOTH.
