I love ya to death bro, but you business sense & reliability is about zero. Even before the drugs took their toll. I'm not claiming to be perfect myself...sometimes I'm a year late on a project...but it always gets done.
DO NOT come back asking for a Job with a company. I don't think anyone is going to chance their relationships with friends to get you a job this time.
Set up shop for yourself (as an affiliate or your own company *funded by yourself*). Pay everyone back. And don't waste your $ and sobriety by going to an industry show ever again
I'm glad you got your own place.....you would be a horrible roommate
So once again
1) work for yourself when you come back, do not partner with anyone I know
2) do not show up at industry shows (it will lead to you losing your sobriety)
3) keep your own place, do not shack up with anyone in the industry again *or in a house they own*
4) good luck at finally being your own man.....no longer dependent on the generosity of others (this one takes some time, but it'll make ya a much better person!)
5) good luck man....all the shit i said above this was my business mind....i still love ya to death as a friend buddy
