Dennis Leary, the comedian and somewhat actor, had a song back in the early 90s titled, “I’m an a$$hole”. I thought this song was funny. I have been called this name before, and I won’t argue with anybody if they think that I am one. But, its days like today that make me be one.<\/p>\n
Is is a known fact that I am opinionated. And I can always back up my opinions. Whether you think that I am right or wrong does not matter to me. But I can back up my opinions.<\/p>\n
I had a phone call tonight that absolutely did NOT go well. I was already dealing with a really crappy day. Then I answered this phone call. A breeder called and asked me about a given buck. SInce, I used to own the buck, I told him how I thought he would breed. Then he told me that he bought semen out of him. Fine. <\/p>\n
Then he told me that he bought semen out of another buck and that 5 out of the 40 wethers in the OYE premium sale were sired by said buck. My reply, “I’m not calling anybody a liar, but I will tell you that there were NOT 40 wethers in the OYE premium sale last year. And I will also gaurantee you that 5 wethers out of that buck were NOT in the OYE sale & probably not a one was out of him.” Doe sale? I don’t know. Don’t care. Wether premium sale–NO!! Look it up on the OYE website. They only sold 31 wethers in 2013. <\/p>\n
Then, this poor, unsuspecting caller told me that he had Joe Dirt semen. Since I knew where all we sold Joe Dirt semen and this guy wasn’t one of them, I asked where he got it. He told me. At this point, the caller, whom I have never met, had decided that he wanted off of the phone. I am sure, that I sounded like an a-hole. Fine. <\/p>\n
The only mistake that I made is that I answered my phone. I’m not the crook. I’m not the liar. It is unfortunate that this guy called me. I can’t help it that he was lied to and misled by others. <\/p>\n
Even though I am an a-hole, I help people. I help showmen. I help other breeders. I help kids. I help parents. I don’t care if you like me. I’m not in this goat game to make friends, even though the only reason that I mess with these beasts is because of the people that we deal with. The people that deal with me will tell you that I can be an ass. But our repeat customer business is extremely high. Why? Although I can be tough to take at times, I am fair, we do things right, we get results and we have a large time. <\/p>\n
I will continue to help others. I think it is a requirement that we do such. But, I will try to be more selective in the future. A person can screw me once, but they will NOT get me twice. <\/p>\n
Here’s to tomorrow being better than today. <\/p>\n
