• Taking it up the ass

  
  

  Well, I don't know what's going on, but there is a very slight possibility that I'm getting fucked here.

  
  

  CONS:
  My boss, Adrian, seems quite unorganized.  If that is the case, then maybe I'm okay, but if not, then I'm fucked.  Why?  Because if he's not unorganized, then there's a slight possibility that he's fraud.  So far, he's strung a bunch of people along already and no one has seen any money.

  
  

  I visited the office we were going to rent yesterday (I have to hire my own secretary, or should I say I GET to hire MY OWN secretary).  I got us a fax number and a phone number to take calls for the tickets.  Anyways I find out that no contract has been signed yet, so hold your horses Simon. 

  
  

  Upon talking to other people I'm supposedly going to work with, everything so far has been done word of mouth and no contract has been signed for anything at all.  Everyone must think I'm such a wanker for working with this guy!

  
  

  I'm supposed to be flying to HK but, upon consultation, I'm going to wait till he gives me money before I buy my ticket.  Otherwise, I'll seriously be fucked.  He's supposed to give me a $2000 USD cash advance there, but there's always the possibility that he won't...

  
  

  PROS
  BUT, there are also many things that make me think it's not fraud.  I've seen ads that he's put out already for the other countries.  I had dinner with the Canadian Diplomat in SH (Stewart Beck).  And the latest cool thing that I found was this:

  
  

  - humidifier runner prior to her arrival
  - bed linen & towels washed WITHOUT fabric conditioner / softner
  - NO feathers in bedding or furnishing
  - Non-scented soap, shampoo etc
  - Please enquire cost of an upright piano for her room if 2 nights or more
  - on no account must Diana Krall's name appear on any paperwork distributed within the hotel (except this one!)

  
  

  I guess performers are really picky people, eh?
