I'd love to say this is exclusive to the music industry, but it's pretty much standard no matter what industry I've worked in. It's also why I worked like hell to move out of customer service because I felt like I was swimming in an ocean of stupid and was getting dragged down with them.
That being said, the more involved in the social media side of things that I've become, the more I've had to somehow explain seemingly obvious things to people without being passive aggressive. It's my personal hell every day.
I take solace that one day we will all be dead and the intrinsically meaningless existence that we lead will be no more. Some days it couldn't come too soon.
Speaking of which, NAMM is pending...
Too dark?
