Fun Guests

David Koechner
'Anchor Man' & ''Talladega Nights'

Yesterday we had a fun guest in the office...his name is David Koechner and he was really funny, and very personable.  He came in for the other boss' and after speaking with Delaware (who set up his meeting)  he came to my side of the office, extended his hand and introduced himself.  I shook his hand and told him my name was Angelica.  He responded, "I'm gonna stop at Angel." I told him, that's what my family calls me.  He replied, "Now see there, we're family.

Joyful Drake
BET's 'Lets Stay Together'

Normally people only get that privilege when they are family or I've known them for a while, or they've been introduced to me as Angel...but this guy was so funny and nice, that I didn't tell him he had not yet earned the right.  After his meeting, he came, shook my hand again and said "Bye, Angel."

Today, Joyful Drake came in and she was cute and fun.  Apparently she wrote a funny script and the Other Bosses want to work with her.  Yay for her!!!

On a different note, I was listening to a phone call with my boss and one of the agent's she works with (as I often do...it is encouraged, for keeping abreast of things...and also good for learning.)  Anyways, the agent was talking about a writer that a certain network paired them with to work with developing and pitching an idea for them.  Now apparently this writer, who's got some nice feature film credits and smaller TV credits to her name, is lazy.  She's basically had the agent doing a lot of the work she should be doing, and she will be getting the created by credit without doing the work to earn it.

It was just interesting.  She told my Boss to never, ever in her life work with this writer, and that she wouldn't last long in this industry, with a work ethic like hers.  Just another lesson learned to carry with me to the next levels certainly in store for me.

It's not that late, but I am tired.  One more day to go!  (Not that I don't like my job and am extremely grateful for it...its just right now, I'm still working for the weekend!!!)


I press on...
