Hustler from Wal mart or American Idol?
Gay Guy: Part 1
Well, it turns out I signed up for G105 insider, a received a email telling me about this contest. A reality show that was coming to the area! Jillian's would be the place and it was my chance to make it big. I knew I had a chance at this, I mean I can sing but American Idol I am not, entrepreneurship now that is something I can control. I have been a wheeler and dealer and a hustler my whole life. I have been the one that knows how to make a buck when needed. So as for being on a show that your purpose was to do this. Well I was there.
I just got done working in a movie called Trash the movie a part of the local bar Flex across from Jillian's, I had a fan base I knew some connections. It was now time to shine.
I worked at the time for Wally World 3rd shift, I told everyone how I was going to be on this TV show tryout. So I remember that morning I got off of work went home changed into my suit and went to Jillian's I got there a bit late as usual. There was a long line of various business looking type people happy and with groups and such. Well there were cameras and Brody from G105 it was just about the coolest thing I had done in awhile.
Then came the first things, rumors. We were supposed to sell tee-shirts, they came around and told us in groups that once we made it though the line we were supposed to sell tee-shirts and that every hour the top grossing seller would make the cut to the next round. Well I started my journey around 10am so I was anxious to get through that damn line and get in there and get out there and sell. I was already churning in my mind ways to psyche people out and talk it up about how great I was at this and how I would make it to the top.
Time went on and I talked and joked around with the other people, then we were told in a rumor that rules changed now it was the person that sold the most shirts by the end of the day at 11pm would automatically get on the show. You know from there I wanted to just knock everyone out of the way to get to selling.
Now the thing about it I was tired, I worked all night came straight to the event and had to work again that night at 11pm so it was time to lay down my first sacrifice, well two were made in that day. As I got into the place we were told guess what we just gave you a shirt but you have to give us 10 dollars for the shirt or you have to give it back. Well I needed the shirt for demo purposes, so I took the only money I had at the time which was 10 dollars and bought the shirt. I remember I was standing next to people who did not buy the shirt, they said they was not going to go out selling. They figured selling the shirts was only optional and was something they were not going to get into. I remember I was standing next to a girl who worked for the independent she kept her shirt and never paid for it because her bf already had taken it to the car I had a lot of fun zspotlight.com took my picture. I even got behind a table that had a bunch of tee-shirts on it and pretended to try to sell shirts to the other contestants.
