Hey guys, It's me Sleepy.
Hope all is well.
I've been working 70 - 80 hrs a week trying to make ends meet. I'm not mad. Life has been hard but, I'm not a dead, so it's all good.
So what has happened in my eyes in the past few years.
1) Jim Graham and **********:
They are assholes. they suck the life out of everyone. If people could spend $10, they wanted $25.
They pushed my relationships with people and I could not cosnenciously do that.
I was fired after the last King 50 where I used 100% of the sponsorship to pay the winners. The question I was asked was " How does Bourke Enterprises make money from this". They were so stupid they didn't get the legitimacy of he contest to create legacy for he site.
During my last few months with RCG/FG no mater what I did selling Advertising it was never good enough. If my relationship with a company lead them to spend $5000 with us, the "Jim's" would want me to push them to $10K. Then never considered the result of that, just the bottom line.
When I started to rebel towards this I was the "bad guy".
When I was canned, I had 15 points of interest I wanted to pursue when i was in employment with RCG/FG. They always said NO... until the week I was fired, and then they did all 15 points of interest. (reference fog bugs, Jim T loved to take credit for my ideas)
OK... going back to the origins of GSN... I was losing my mind when FG fird me. I gave it my ALL. But the JIMs are ASSHOLES only concerned with profit. So when they let me go I was shocked. I had worked with Bart minimally on his multirotor site MRF. when I got canned he hit me up. Let it be know Bart is a GOOD DUDE. His heart has always been in the right area. During the start of GSN he did his best to support me and my family, but as you know life costs, and even if I worked 100 hours a week he could only afford me so much. I had to take every production gig and job I could get to pay my bills, And that was simply not enough to keep my end of the deal going. Bart had to fire me. As I could not fulfill my end of the bargain. I'm sorry but when your family mortgage is due and you kids needs shoes, you need to provide food and health insurance you have to do what you can. SO I was working 60 - 90 hours a week at 2 - 8 jobs to make ends meet. Bt not focusing on GSN.
Bart finally let me go... and mind you, he was aways fair and seriously helped me not sink into oblivion. Bart is an awesome person and a HUGE part of GSN. From when it started and to where it is now.
Today I work 50 - 90 hours a week trying to make a living. I'm $50K in debt from the years after I was fired from RCG, and working with GSN. I'm not complaining, but also sad.
I watched Bart sell my baby,. And I hoped it was going to be absorbed by someone who cared, and it looks like it was. Thank YOU!
I will never forget the people I met all those years ago and I miss a lot of you. Life sucks and rules at the same time.
I hope someday I can afford to enjoy a hobby, but right now that's now in my cards...
Long life GSN.
