I'll take the prom queen.

Not from my HS. Ill take megan fox. twist my arm.

i think i have heard of bone fishing. they just put up an insane fight?

yep, they rip

The leads are weak? YOU'RE WEAK!

Oh you call this abuse? How can you take the abuse you take on asit?

Who am I? I made $870,000 last year. That's who the f+ck I am. you see this watch, it's worth more than your car. That's who I am.

And you, you're WANTING.

Great husband? Go cry to your wife.

Good father? F+ck you, go play with your kids.

youre job is TO GET THEM TO SIGN ON THE LINE WICH IS DOTTED!

This guy obviously has his priorities fucked up.

I think the narator is spot on. If my job is to make a sale, then that's my job and making rationals why I can't isn't going to help me or anyone else. Some people are come up with reasons why they can't. Others come up with options to get what they need to be sucessfull.

In the context of the monologue Alec Baldwin(the person doing the speach) is there to motivate a failing sales team, and he is correct as most of them are "wanting". There was a scene in the Rock too where Sean C looked at Jack N and said "Loosers always whine about doing their best, winners go home and f+ck the prom queen."

Even Yoda is down with the rules of the world "Do or do not, there is no try"

I beleive to my core that if you're doing something with everything you have in you, you will reach serious acheivement, but those who do not give it their all and complain how sucessfull others who have acheived some desired hight, have really robbed themselves.

I chalk all that hand out thinking, or social "greater good" garbage into the same toilette and I think it's better to flush it.

eh i'm with ryan, i'd rather have a happy relationship than 870k/year. I can't imagine that having that much extra money would ever make me feel successful....it'd make me feel like I was my job and who the hell wants that? Takes way more effort to effectively and successfully raise a kid than it'll ever take to sell ANYTHING, period. Sounds like the narrator just can't hold his life together so he dives into work to make himself feel better, but that's just meeeee

I'll take the prom queen.

same here, our prom queen was not worth wanting. Everyone knows it's the dirty ones that are better in bed anyway.

I'm bored and dem beats is taking too long with his post!

wtf...i guess he left the reply box open

I'm bored and dem beats is taking too long with his post!

i know. bull shit work getting in my way.

I also agree a great family is better than a billion dollars. But by chance say you had a billion dollars, could you improve your childs chances.

I dont measure sucess by money. some do, but if u work in a feild that is completely measured by money the I say do your damn job.

I feel that way if I go see a doctor. I dont give 2 flying pigs left of nantucket if my surgeon makes Jr a happy well adjusted boy. He/she has a job to do and better come with both eyes open. Money doesnt fix problems itself, and the reverse is also true. If something is there and you want it we only have ourselves to blame if we cant get it. There is nothing that says you cant make a high income and be a good father/husband/person.

If you admire to be the guy with a watch worth more than your car, then live up to it. act accordingly. if you have other priorities, then dont worry about the guy with said watch.

dont be "wanting"

phone poast sometimes takes a moment

Fuck stealerships again.

$400 for a set of engine mounts for the backhoe. Same thing, $50 on ebay, without shipping.

They can go screw themselfes.

nice little 1300% mark up. nice padding if I do say so.

Don't u know they are just diong their best to stimulate the economy??

I wonder how many people have paid that price do u think, just because they are the dealership?

Alot of people, I bet. I got raped 2 times on some parts. Untill somebody sent me a link to the parts catalogue.

Told them the price on ebay, they tried to make me an offer and convince me shipping is going to cost and bla-bla-bla.

Same thing with the hydraulic pump. Should be ~$1100 shipped here (should be here next week) and they want $3500 for the same pump.

Rule 1: Life is not fair -- get used to it!

Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping -- they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you are. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

bad buisness decision for then. Sound like a holes.

I'm on a damn rampage of ethical turmoil today.

I need to get to the range and get some focus for my intensity. Things are a changing.

Wind is changing direction....

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

60k out of high school is doable, but it involves an ungodly amount of back breaking and/or life threatening labor and no less than 110% commitment.

Main reason I went to college, I 'spose...

i agree with penguin, and i do not desire a car phone...i didn't even know those still existed

I used to have a bag phone somewhere, never used it, but had it for the comedy factor

i dropped out of HS and made a consistent 70k.

i worked 72 hours a week. I rarely did labor though. Just selling consistantly and effectively.

Its still not given to you. good call on the wording. It should say your not given a 60k a year job, but u have to earn it.

school is just the easiest way for most.

and most of those jobs are in a highly risky and/or volatile environment/field...definitely not for me...

Here's the hang up. If you dont care about money or expencive toys, cool.

Just dont be mad if someone else has them, or suprised if someone who's results motivated blows past you

making that much and living home with momma meant sooo many toys, and nights filled with times i dont remember.

Actually I made more than that working part time while going to college right out of high school. You just need to tend bar

The days of no house payment were exciting, although I rather like my house.
