doh...Don’t bitch too loud…
While hanging out in a department store, I was talking to a friend of mine about my experiences studying Advertising and Public Relations. I was quite vocal about my distain of the two professions. I told him how much I hated spin and ads everywhere.
I went on a long rant about it, when I noticed a middle-aged lady looking at me, hearing my every word. She started to smile the more I bitched about the subject of advertising, I mean I was really putting down the industry. I might have even said that I would never get into it.
“You what’s funny, I work in Advertising,” the lady said to me, laughing out loud. She had the biggest grin on her face.
I felt a mild case of embarrassment on my part, realizing I said some bad things. “Really?”
The friends around broke out in laughter.
The funny thing was that she never disputed my rants. I bet she agreed with me.
A lot of people have opinions about cable news, so I usually enjoy hearing rants about it, for good or bad. Of course, "rant" usually denotes something bad, so I get an earful of complaints, nothing of which I can do anything about.
ReplyDeleteYeah, i understand. I usually gave loud vocal rants that I make sure everyone hears. so, I should have known.
