Hello, this is the June edition of my multi-media blog. Do check out my book, Conversations
Out of Chaos available on-line (like here on my laptop) and in print wherever books
sold.
Also stay tuned for my forthcoming CD (hopefully available by June) as well as my coffee table
pic book follow up – to this memoir. Full of pic. poems, and interactive fun! Available
as soon as I can get a book deal so they can press it up!
This month is about my trials with different jobs. Which is why I chose to be self employed
doing something I’m good at for companies to actually appreciate and enjoy. I'm naturally
charming, approachable, and adorable like a cuddly plush toy.
I also started this artistic non-profit, (The Circle’s Edge & The Alvi n T . S m i t h
F o u n d a t i o n "! ) a n d I m a w r i t e r , a r t i s t , a n d e n t r e p r
e n e u r w h o h a s m a n y b i l l i o n d o l l a r i d e a s t h a t o t h e r
s a r e p i c k i n g u p o n b e c a u s e I h a v e y e t f o u n d a t r u e b u
s i n e s s p a r t n e r .
T h i s v i d e o i s b a s e d o n m y b o o k . & . . I f y o u h a v e t h e n e
r v e t o w h i n e a b o u t employment practices from Wal-Mart & other capitalist companies
simply doing what they deem necessary & best trying to survive then how can anyone overlook
my 2 former coldhearted, jobs?!?! And where are those human rights agencies
and fair employment organizations for me?!?! My former job DARO Reality unjustly fired
me after my loyal, dedicated 3 year tenure of coming 2 work through rain, sleet, Christmas,
and snow and working back-2-back doubles. All because I came to work late while dealing
w/ my mom in the hospital. SO if you want to call Wal-Mart or some traditional capitalist
company inhumane SIMPLY because they hire foreigners who are begging to work for $2
an hour, how can anyone NOT include DARO Reality and my former satanic boss and Scottish co-worker
from Japan?!?!
Daro was my last job. The other job was this 1 year teaching contract in Japan called the
(JET) Japanese Exchange & Teaching Programme. Unlike the other 99.8% of the foreigners there,
I was one of the cursed few that got stuck in a bad assignment. As the coordinator said,
it’s the luck of the draw. And my cursed luck landed me with Satan and his Scottish
imp.
The only reason they kept me throughout the year, was because it was a signed contract.
In which kazoe inoe, my satanic boss, and his Scottish prick bruce lander, tried extremely
hard to get me to quit by treating me like crap. Their reason for *** treatment? I
was too different for their comfort. I replaced this Japanese American from Hawaii. I was
supposedly the 1st American there since the war, (and everyone knows Hawaii is not in
America).
I was the only black in the village, I’m a big girl who couldn’t ride a bike –
– which had nothing to do with them. I traveled all over Japan and even to Korea
all by myself with absolutely no help from Satan and his Scottish imp or use of a bike!
Not to mention after the 1st month in a foreign village all alone, I was expected and told
to translate Japanese and figure out how to get around on my own. So I did, with the help
of my Japanese friends – and NO help from them!
I had beginning dredlocks, didn’t speak Japanese (which was not even a requirement
even though my boss studied English from 7th grade through college and spoke just as little
English as I japanese) and I basically disliked a lot of their food. Which I know can be insulting.
With the exception of not being able to eat their food without getting sick, every other
trait SHOULD be expected in a foreign exchange. Why would some idiot ask for an exchange student
or hire an o’par then mistreat them because they are too foreign and different??!
If you want someone just like you, hire another *** hole! Don’t ask for some exchange student
or employee and tease then because they sound too different. As Scottish imp politely said
right after my arrival. “Hello, I'm (*** hole) bruce. Hi I’m Sogwa. My God you have
a funny American accent. I’ve been to America once but it was a bore”.
Well thank you. Nice to meet you too – NOT.
Only some ignorant fool would expect a duplicate and not someone totally different in a cultural
exchange. If you don’t want to expiernce a foreign country then don’t travel. If
you hate foreigners and folks too different, then don’t invite them over. Never travel,
or visit NY.
If you’re doing some anti-bigot training kit, find your own gunnie pigs!! Don’t go
asking for and hiring me or some other sane human being who presume the host to at least
be open minded, civilized, and humane!!
And their insulting attempts (to unsuccessfully) try and be humane to me when my dad died
– will NEVER replace the many months of hell they gave me.
The scottish imp was surprised that I returned. And had the nerve to question why I wanted
to finish my contract out. Whatever my reason was, (and I did think of quitting every week),
it was surely none of his damn business. All he needs to do is help kazoe screw himself!
Besides, unlike others, I make it a point to try and finish whatever I start. I’m
NOT a quitter, for whatever that’s worth. Of course, Satan made sure not to renew my
contract (as if I wanted to spend another day with them) but he also made it impossible
for me to transfer to a more compassionate school with hopefully a more humane boss.
As for my last heartless job, I was employed a little under 3 years. I guess I lasted that
long because I was out of site out of mind. I worked the weekend midnight shift (& any
other shifts available). I was reliable, came to work through rain, sleet, snow, and on
holidays including Christmas. I stayed awake, was polite, always sober, knew my job, and
even spoke English. None of these qualities however, were at all important to that bias
company.
I was one of the few employees that was American and not related, or friends with anyone there
I got the job the quote on quote honest way by submitting my resume. Thus, I was an official
black sheep from the start. The manager who hired me ended up quitting a few months later.
They overlooked me every chance they got for full time work. In fact, one person they gave
full time, sleeps on the job. Another who didn’t just sleep on the job, but slept
across the couches in the lobby, was promoted to asst. manager.
And because I came to work late while dealing w/ my mom in the hospital, they eagerly fired
me. The great opportunity they were waiting for. I successfully got DC unem. But they
had the nerve to LIE across the board and contest it. And *** hole DC had the nerve
to side with them in denying my case. Now DC unem. actually expects me to repay the
few months I did get. But I have something for DC unem and DARO..……
Now I don’t expect or want pity, I WANT & NEED YOUR help though! PLEASE Help by forwarding
this to at least 1 other person. Perhaps they may know someone – who can help me find:
A “start up Puff Daddy” who is organized, a self starter, & will take us BOTH to the
next level!
A handyman with CHEMISTRY who’s sane, single, and interested in partnering w/ me
Some prayer warrior (KIDS & adults alike) who God likes enough 2 answer their prayers
for my mom.
Some folks who would be willing to help us build our small, Art lounge in upstate NY.
We need in-kind dontations of gently used building material, in-kind service volunteer
to help renovate the space, and financial doners to allow us to est. the space.
Or even something as little as signing up for this monthly blog! & passing this video
