HELP! What's more important a webmaster show or a trip with your loved one? : - GoFuckYourself.com

Dwreck · 10-07-2004, 06:15 AM

Well my bosses just asked me if I was interested in atteneding the webmaster show in Santa Monica November 18th-20th. Well I didnt respond for I had to look into it. I was in Maimi for Internext and in Mexico for the Ynot show the past two months and was kinda getting burned out on shows . With Vegas around the corner I thought this I could skip with out that much loss.

I told my girlfriend and she snapped. Well she was more dissapointed than anything.
She addimmited to getting revervations,concert tickets, and a bunch of other goddies for us that same weekend as a secret gift.

She said they are all easlily cancelled and refunable and we could do it anuther weekend.

Im so confused on what to do right now.

I have been to alot of webmaster shows and Im personnally torn on what to do.

What would you do?

jade_dragon · 10-07-2004, 06:19 AM

Your job pays the bills, does she and will she untill you are retirement age?

Work first, play later when your work has alloted you the time to play.

It is a question of how much money and future prosperity attending the show will get you. If she wishes to work with you on being together and sharing funds then this is something she needs to understand.

Digipimp · 10-07-2004, 06:20 AM

Of course you go to the convention I mean it's the most important thing in the world and you'll gain so much from it.

Yeah...money above all.... And then you're 35, have $3 Millions in your bank account and die after a car accident..and just before you die, you realise you had only money but no life....

yeah but the people on GFY will think you're cool and you can post a screenshot of your stats and shit, and we all know that's what really counts

Adultnet · 10-07-2004, 06:29 AM

Go with the girl friend m8..

Dwreck · 10-07-2004, 06:30 AM

Girlfriend or boyfriend? Kidding : )

Na, skip the show ... how many new people are you going to see there? How much new business will you actually gain that you didn't get in Mexico that you won't see in Vegas? I think you stay in Toronto and make the little lady happy.

sherie · 10-07-2004, 06:52 AM

Derek Derek Derek,

They gave you an option, they could go if they wanted to go. We never force anyone to go to show's. I say go with the girly, I have been to WA Santa Monica and it was a great time, however, you will be in Vegas and you will see the EXACT same people there. You won't miss out on much besides me rocking hardcore to Guns and Roses at the Rainbow Room ;))) Go with the g/f if it's not gonna freak your bosses out. I know them and I know that they'd be cool with it.

Be a man! =)

Let the boss do some work and spend the weekend with your girl

Dwreck · 10-07-2004, 07:02 AM

Ok I kinda knew the anserw in my heart but cmon how times do you get a chance to go to California.

Kristin some very good points. Your right so true. I knew this wasnt going to be easy.

Yeah... you've been to tons of shows, and had some awesome parties... will it really be the end of the world if you miss one?

Be with the girl... I'm guessing trips with her are not even close to being as common as a webmaster show.

Your right Sherie I need to take my man pills. But partying at the Rainbow room thats is hella fun. I live for that shit.

Knowing my luck we will be broken up in a month and I will be kicking myself for not going. LOL

hey D, I'd go see the girlie. You'll be in Vegas soon!! You never get to see her so spend the weekend with her silly!!

LOL you crack me up. Dude, you can go to Cali anytime, it's better to go and visit and do shit then it is just to go and party at a convention. If you're afraid you are going to miss something such as a party then perhaps you should be re-thinking this whole gf thing to begin with. I can do damage to my liver anywhere, it's had no boundaries LOL I can assure you, if you choose this over your gf who has made all these plans, chances are you'll be single the minute you tell her. Either way, it's entirely up to you...find that spine and do your thang!

You can also invite her to go w/you - there's a thought.

Exactly Derek.

Be a man. Tell your woman to stfu, go do your job, and check out the hotties while you're there.

If your woman doesn't understand that you have to frequently travel the globe to hang with half naked pornstars, then I say, who the fuck needs her.

Find a girl who WANTS you to go on these trips and wants to HEAR all the naughty shit you get into, and with WHOM you get into it with. If she wants to see the PICTURES of you and Raimi....THEN she's a keeper. Not until.

Just my opinion

Sammy4u · 10-07-2004, 07:30 AM

Go with your girlfriend. You already made her spoil your surprise. Sounds like a nice day she planned for you guys.

Rochard · 10-07-2004, 07:31 AM

Both - Bring you g/f to the show. I bring my wife to shows. It greatly increases my odds of getting laid during shows.

Slick · 10-07-2004, 07:49 AM

Think of it this way, either you could hang out with a bunch of guys and girls that you'll never get to touch OR you could go out on a trip with your woman, see a concert, then take her back to your motel room and fuck the hell outta here.

PLUS if you choose her over the webmaster show, it'll show her that you really care about her and you'll get more fucking out of the deal. If you piss her off, you might have to go a couple of weeks without it.

Jace · 10-07-2004, 08:18 AM

fuck the show, they are a dime a dozen now....there are tons more to go to every other month

hang with the girl, especially if it is a good concert

WiredGuy · 10-07-2004, 08:53 AM

If I had a gf, I'd rather go with her on a nice weekend then to a convention.

WG

seeric · 10-07-2004, 08:59 AM

stay with the girlfriend. i think the show in santa monica will be decent, but vegas is only 90 days(to be exact).

make her feel all warm and fuzzy and stay with her, and save soem money ;)

Sosa · 10-07-2004, 09:13 AM

go with the girlfriend and wait till the vegas show.

mindoza · 10-07-2004, 09:29 AM

It sounds like you are more worried on missing out on the fun than the business!

Looks like your delema is about being ready for a committed relationship.

.:St Ides:. · 10-07-2004, 09:30 AM

Take your girl to the show, then stay a few extra days and party in La and San Diego

C_U_Next_Tuesday · 10-07-2004, 09:33 AM

go with the girly. I gave up Vegas a couple years ago and decided to take the family on a snowboarding trip instead..none of us knew how to snowboard...was the best thing I could have ever done!

Niko Bimini · 10-07-2004, 09:47 AM

Derek you have to go with your heart on this one. I am in the same mental possition with the shows, in that I am getting a bit burnt out since Mexico. I have made the choice of not going to the Santa Monica show and instead taking some time off of the party/networking scene.
You are well known and well liked so you will be missed, but not forgotten. As long as you don't miss two shows in a row than I think you are safe in NOT loosing any business.

For her to have gone through all the trouble of planning a secret trip you should really not turn that down.

After all we can make all the moeny in the world, but think what a lonely life it would be without s0meone to enjoy it with.

Just my

See you in Vegas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want everyone to answer this question in their heads, be honest with yourself, you do not even need to answer this.

1) How many people do you know who have a million in disposable income?
2) How many of you who do know someone who has that much ever get to hang out with them and/or see how their life really is
3) Did that person make the money through hard work or did they just get it handed to them?

Here is something for you who can not say yes to any of those to think about and what those of you who did answer yes may already have learned.

Don't you find it interesting that all the stories about rich people being so miserable with their lives are usually in some feel good movie or some story simular to "The ant and the grasshopper"? Perhaps these stories are set up to make you feel better and most of all complacent in your lives, to give you comfort. "oh yeah he has a bunch of money but he is miserable and alone". Was this set up in society to make you sit in your position in the midst of the status quo and limit your drive to knock off the guys at the top? To make you sit there and work to make another man money. Keep believing that a life of hard work that results in large sums of money is empty and sad, leaders of companies need people who think like this to make them rich.

What is a life? Getting drunk and yelling at the television with your buddies as grown men play a game? Getting high? Going to the club and forcing your way though a mass of people, having smoke blown on you and drinks spilled on you? Bragging about how many chics you banged? Or is it retiring at 35 because of your hard work, being able to live a life of comfort then instead of ending work when you are half dead at 50? If I got hit by a car tomorrow at 23 with the amount of work I done, the accomplishments I have made and having sacrificed all that earlier stuff I would have no regrets at all. I work my ass off for most of the week yet I have friends, I have people who love me, I have my family, I have financial security that grows everyday, I have my companies and I have my health.

MrIzzz · 10-07-2004, 12:23 PM

i always thought you were gay?

lolololololol, i'm joking!!!!!!!

seriously, there is no substitute for love. i didnt read this entire thread so i dont know how close you are to her, but there will always be more shows. but how many good women can you find?

SleazyDream · 10-07-2004, 12:34 PM

go with your GF

jade_dragon · 10-07-2004, 01:00 PM

Yeah like I said it depends on how much you thing going to the show will accomplish as far as achieving your goals and also how deserving your lady is of your time.

sickkittens · 10-07-2004, 01:03 PM

If the show benefits your work/career do that, esp. since you can reschedule the other trip - and esp. since she's ok with it.

the Shemp · 10-07-2004, 01:07 PM

your job comes first, tell the GF to work around your schedule...

sicone · 10-07-2004, 01:09 PM

Why cant it be both together?

Take the loved one on the trip.. attend the gathering and stay a few extra days for just you and the loved one to spend some time

Eric · 10-07-2004, 01:17 PM

Last I checked the shows take up about 10 weekends a year. That leaves 42 weekends for the girl. Not sure about you but I go to shows and work two deals the the show is worth the trip. That is why I don't miss many.

All about priorities bro. Sure Vegas is right around the corner, but I know for a fact that I could spend 10 days at a show and not always get to talk to everyone I would like to, let alone meet all the new people I would like to meet.

Again priorities, mine at set right now. What are yours?

You make some good points and honestly I am too tired now to go into this debate. But you have to agree that in this biz the more you work, the more you earn..but in the same time the less free time you have. ( sure there's a saying work smart, not hard, but let's not get into this right now ). And - we aren't talking here about getting high in clubs and banging random chicks - we are talking about spending the weekend with the person you love.
IMO there should be also place for love in your life before you hit 35 and retire. And please note that most people in this thread ( "even" Sleazy Dream ) had chosen the girlfriend over a convention. So I hope so did Derek, although I could really care less

Derek you should go to the show just to rock out with sherie!

Skipping a show isn't going to kill anybody and I highly doubt anybody will be canceling deals with you because you didn't show up. I really have no idea how some people hit up shows and events every month, I'm STILL burnt out on shows and I haven't been to one in 4 months!

Spend some time with the girlie. If you don't want her send her on over, she sounds like a winner.

Masked man- You nailed it on the head. I have been to a ton of webmasters shows and what?s the big deal if I miss another one. Im scared Im going to miss that one big deal.

Odie_ - Your so right I don?t see her enough. Damn girls are always right.

Sherie- Your right Im being selfish and stupid. So I don?t have balls like you. It?s something I?m working on. That why I have friends like you.

Ronaldo- My gut was hurting. I laughed so hard that?s fucking funny. Gawd I love Raimi.!! She wont be there so there is a another reason not to go.

Sammy4u- it?s nice to hear your input.

Rochard- I would like to take my girlfriend Im will plan on that for Vegas.

Slick-you nailed it on the head

Jace- WERD!!!!!!!!

Wiredguy-You just want Sunny all to yourself. I see how you are!

A1r3k- only 90 days away It can wait then that?s sooner than I think.

MIndoza- That;s a valid point too. Your so right im scared of committed relationships.

St Ideas- that?s a good plan I will do that in Vegas. As long as she can handle it. Its hard when a person has never been to a show before. They don?t know what to expect.

C u Next Tuesday- I will take your advice.

Bimini-. That?s a well thought out thread and thanks for your compliments. IT made me think she must be a cool girl to hang out with me.

Jade-Dragon- That?s a whole thread into itself. I will comment on that later.

Mr Izz- Im not gay, Im just gay curious. Hahaha

defresto · 10-07-2004, 05:13 PM

If you have someone who loves you and you loose this person for a couple of $$$, you will understand you have lost the most important thing in your life and got just a few million$.

Food first
girls next
$ at last

Kimmykim · 10-07-2004, 05:58 PM

Seriously, there can't be a question here Derek.

Your girl goes out of the way to make secret weekend plans for the two of you. [b]Then she tells you that it's refundable and you can do it another time if you really feel the need to come to Santa Monica that weekend.[b]

If you want to keep the girl, [b]keep your ass out of Santa Monica[b] and go with her. She's being about as kind as she can be, and missing one webmaster show isn't going to kill you. Hell, missing them all won't kill you, as I know lots of people that don't even come to shows and still have good businesses.

Southern California ain't all it's cracked up to be.

PLUS if you choose her over the webmaster show, it'll show her that you really care about her and you'll get more fucking out of the deal. If you piss her off, you might have to go a couple of weeks without it.

I am in the same mental possition with the shows, in that I am getting a bit burnt out since Mexico. I have made the choice of not going to the Santa Monica show and instead taking some time off of the party/networking scene. You are well known and well liked so you will be missed, but not forgotten. As long as you don't miss two shows in a row than I think you are safe in NOT loosing any business. For her to have gone through all the trouble of planning a secret trip you should really not turn that down. After all we can make all the moeny in the world, but think what a lonely life it would be without s0meone to enjoy it with.

Eric Confirmed User Industry Role: Join Date: Dec 2000 Location: The Helm! Posts: 8,818	Last I checked the shows take up about 10 weekends a year. That leaves 42 weekends for the girl. Not sure about you but I go to shows and work two deals the the show is worth the trip. That is why I don't miss many. All about priorities bro. Sure Vegas is right around the corner, but I know for a fact that I could spend 10 days at a show and not always get to talk to everyone I would like to, let alone meet all the new people I would like to meet. Again priorities, mine at set right now. What are yours? __________________ No One

Im scared Im going to miss that one big deal. Odie_ - Your so right I don?t see her enough. Damn girls are always right. Sherie- Your right Im being selfish and stupid. So I don?t have balls like you. It?s something I?m working on. That why I have friends like you. Ronaldo- My gut was hurting. I laughed so hard that?s fucking funny. Gawd I love Raimi.!! She wont be there so there is a another reason not to go. Sammy4u- it?s nice to hear your input. Rochard- I would like to take my girlfriend Im will plan on that for Vegas. Slick-you nailed it on the head Jace- WERD!!!!!!!! Wiredguy-You just want Sunny all to yourself. I see how you are! A1r3k- only 90 days away It can wait then that?s sooner than I think. MIndoza- That;s a valid point too. Your so right im scared of committed relationships. St Ideas- that?s a good plan I will do that in Vegas. As long as she can handle it. Its hard when a person has never been to a show before. They don?t know what to expect. C u Next Tuesday- I will take your advice. Bimini-. That?s a well thought out thread and thanks for your compliments. IT made me think she must be a cool girl to hang out with me. Jade-Dragon- That?s a whole thread into itself. I will comment on that later. Mr Izz- Im not gay, Im just gay curious. Hahaha __________________ Derek Dwreck Smout Program Manager Icq 165976549 Skype derekthomassmout

Kimmykim bitchslapping zebras!!!!! Industry Role: Join Date: Jun 2001 Location: In a shack by the beach Posts: 16,015	Seriously, there can't be a question here Derek. Your girl goes out of the way to make secret weekend plans for the two of you. [b]Then she tells you that it's refundable and you can do it another time if you really feel the need to come to Santa Monica that weekend.[b] If you want to keep the girl, [b]keep your ass out of Santa Monica[b] and go with her. She's being about as kind as she can be, and missing one webmaster show isn't going to kill you. Hell, missing them all won't kill you, as I know lots of people that don't even come to shows and still have good businesses. Southern California ain't all it's cracked up to be.
