I finally did it - I dropped the F-bomb...

Recommended Posts

in front of the university administration. And I have absolutely no remorse.

Most people who know me would not use the word tact in any way shape or form when describing me. If I have something to say- you can pretty much bet I'm going to say it and it won't be blowing sunshine up your ass. And if I don't have anything to say, well, I'll keep my mouth shut.

So imagine my surprise the other day when I find out in a meeting that I am being sent to Washington DC at the end of the month to lobby on FSU's behalf with certain federal agencies.

I think I had a very shocked looked on my face and without thinking said - "You are fucking with me right?"

No one skipped a beat - "No we're not, here's your schedule..."

We must be in baaaaad shape if I'm being sent :S


So - what are lobbyists wearing these days? :|

I would suggest a tailored suit, dark blue or black, red power tie and the following accessories:

Plain white envelope in the inner breast pocket stuffed with cash (for the little guys)
Attache case stuffed with bankrolled $100 bills (for the big boys)
Hidden microphone
Hidden camera
My reality and yours are quite different.

They were probably feeling you out to see if you were the right guy for the job. When you replied with a cuss word, it instantly cemented to them that you are the right guy.

Bakc when I was practicing in Los Angeles, I got to hang around some of the political types. "Motherfuckers" and "cocksuckers" were words that flowed quite freely with them. Sex, power, money, arrogance and alcohol are the common denominations in dealing with them.

Trust me - you'll fit right in. No bullshit, up front, say what you mean and mean what you say. It's how to build respect. Coddle them when necessary, but don't fuck around.

My bigger problem however is that I do not have a suit. Not even a jacket. I do have one tie - but it's got bugs bunny on it....:D
