missed this one...
not sure if its supposed to condescending or not...
but back then, I was making great money...
I was known around the office in whispers as "Mike BurnsCash"...
but let me tell you something, money makes life easier, but does not make you happy.. been there done that. If you not happy, no matter how much money you spend, or how many toys you buy, nothing helps...
but there was almost nothing I would not do for my friends, and still do, although the cash part is gone.
I gave money to people when they needed it...
I bought things from people in the industry, not cause I need it, but cause they needed cash... Is that a bad thing... ?
Red Cross, no... my friends and people I know, yes...
Thats my personality, I like to help when I can...
I also believe that one should never lend money, If you can afford to, give it. If you get back, all the better, if not, you gave it so there should be no hard feelings.
I live from month to month now like most of you... but if you look back a couple weeks ago.. a guy was selling domains here cause he need cash fast... I agreed to by one for $50, after we made the deal, someone else offered more.. I told him to take the deal... and keep my payment.. I did not need the domain.. so let him get some extra cash... am I stupid, you may thinks so, but help others makes me happy when I can.
For better or worse thats just me...
Lens and I have not always seen eye to eye from day one of working with him. I had some major anxiety issues (Panic Attacks) when I first started
working with Lens, I almost did not take the job, But Lens let me work through them by letting me take a "break" when I needed it. It took years
to get over, and he was extremly understanding. For that I can never repay him.
I left lens to do stuff on my own, I have found that while I may be a decent programmer, I suck at marketing... so be it.. I made the choice, I live with it.
Since I left... we have stayed in contact, periodically, and I have let him know when I see something that is wrong, but I normally go straight to him.
With all his new stuff, I figured he was pretty busy, so I did not even ask for him or dial his extention.. I tried to explain what was wrong to Loryn, to be passed on. I did not ask to speak to Jeff, she told me I should talk to him...
is this a regular responce from Adult.com, no way... in the years since I left this is the first time its happened.
but, if I happed to see a problem on your site, I would let you know, if I know who you are..
