    In Ghana 🇬🇭 when posters can't be imported, local artists will bootleg them to the best of their abilities. Some often are more imaginative than the official studio releases.

    An examination of the machinations behind the scenes at a real estate office. Unscrupulous salesmen try to hawk dubious real estate to suckers.

  5. @rsmon77 Alan Alda surprised me with how well he nailed it on Broadway because his natural cadence is so different

    Wow, they just went full #GlengarryGlenross, didn't they?

    I was #RadicalizedAgainstCapitalism in 2012, while working at a #JPMC branch. #Corporate gave us a bunch of ridiculous, unattainable sales goals and called them #commitments, even though they never asked for our opinion, or if we were willing to make those commitments.

    Naturally, these unattainable goals were not met, and corporate started accusing us of "failing to meet our commitments." They framed it as a moral failing on our part instead of a failure on their part to actually do the research and determine what amount of sales they might reasonably expect from that branch.

    My team was composed exclusively of highly experienced #bankers with long track records of exemplary sales performance. But corporate, rather than accept that maybe they had made a miscalculation, just gaslit and systematically fired us, one by one, until they had to close the branch.

    I've been #AntiCapitalist ever since.

    #GlengarryGlenRoss (1992)
    An examination of the machinations behind the scenes at a real estate office. A realistic portrayal of what it is to try making a life in high pressure sales with all its highs and lows; promises of fortunes and deliveries of dross.

    A masterpiece of dialogue from #DavidMamet
    "Put that coffee down! Coffee is for closers only".

    "You never open your mouth until you know what the shot is".

    " I subscribe to the law of contrary public opinion... If everyone thinks one thing, then I say, bet the other way...".
