I once heard without struggle there is no progress and the more I think about that saying the more I believe it to be true. I've always been the type of person that goes with my gut instinct and if something doesn't feel right then I just don't do it. Some of you may be wondering to yourself, Kelsey where is all this going? Well let me tell you. I'll start off by saying that the three strong women who helped shape the man I am today taught me the importance of having moral and standards; they also provided me with the know how to understand my worth. I came to New York on a leap of faith and it's faith with a lot of hard work that's going to help me succeed here. I took a job recently because I have a strong support for the "underdog" and the place I decided to work for surely is the underdog in it's industry. With that said the company has so much potential and who doesn't like to be a part of something to help it grow and thrive. After years of being the "underdog" myself I know the struggle first hand of working hard to get that first job, to get someone to call you back and just say yes I want to take a chance on you. It was that one yes that has gotten me to this point I am in my life now.
Continuing on, here recently I have been asked to do things for this company that I didn't want to be a part of. I don't pretend to be a bully and I certainly don't like people who are, whether it be in person or over the internet. Bullying has no place in the work place and certainly I will not be bullying anyone for someone else's gain. I studied journalism at a fine undergraduate school and it was baffling to me when I was asked to post things to the internet to try and damage to reputation of others. That's not who I am and for damn sure what I'm about. If you want someone who works hard, who represents the company well, who would truly go out of their way to not only help you succeed but also to help myself grow then I would be your man. What I won't do is go against everything, the very foundation that is deeply rooted in me to help you gain anything. I once heard, "You never win by fighting dirty," and I am where I am because I did things by the book. I stayed and continue to stay true to who I am to get ahead.
So because I didn't post the derogatory things you wanted me to post I was asked to leave. Believe me when I tell you this, I will come out victorious, I have proved it all this time and to quote another saying I've heard, "one monkey don't stop no show." Trust and believe Kelsey Minor always prevails.
Until next time,
peaceWORLD
