Gal with An Attitude

Showbiz Personality (SP) must have thought she could get away with anything, but an incident showed that she has indeed embodied the connotation of ‘showbiz.’ One time, SP accepted an out of town gig and the townsfolk were excited. After all, SP is a reliable, although at times, annoying entertainer.

The call time was late in the afternoon, around 5 pm, as SP would start her routine at 6pm. One thing with gigs is that if it starts on time, then it ends on time. That means there would be no unreasonable delays and everyone’s time would be valued. However, reality is that no out of town show has ever started on time. 

Nonetheless, the organizers were confident SP would arrive at the venue on time. Besides, the organizer was a friend of SP from her university days. After sending a text asking where she was, SP said that she was going to be a bit late. An hour past and a message was again sent to SP. This time, SP no longer replied. Naturally, the audience was disappointed. However, three hours later, SP sent word that she was caught in traffic and opted to turn back and go home. Regardless of her excuse, SP had just let down an entire town.

However, there was a twist. SP did manage to arrive at the venue but what she saw brought out the high-brow attitude that matches the negative impression cast throughout her career. She told her handler that she felt uncomfortable seeing the sando-clad, slipper-wearing people waiting for her arrival. It was too municipal for her. She claimed she feared for her safety, as she assumed she was going to be mobbed. Thus, she no longer informed the organizer that she was already in the area. However, what further annoyed the organizer was that SP had the gall to offer to return 50% of her downpayment. Even if SP returns the money, her lack of commitment has already affected the reputation of the organizer in the town.   

‘Attitude. That is your tendency to evaluate things based on your perception. If you think you can't, that is a negative attitude parcel and opening it will reveal what you believe.’ ― Israelmore Ayivo
