Experiences and thoughts based on my everyday life |
| This book will contain my daily thoughts. |
| I am in a mood. If you had asked me if I was in a mood an hour ago, I would have given you a quizzical look and asked, "No, why?". I had just checked on the carrot cake that I had put in the oven and I sat down to peruse my social media accounts. I noticed that there was yet again, another video up on Instagram from a creature engineering firm that Rick has worked with, featuring a character Rick worked on. Clips of this particular character out and about in public are EVERYWHERE right now, so I reposted the video on my Instagram stories and noted that Rick would be puppeteering him next week. My timer on the oven went off, so I was tending to that, but I noticed my phone was going off. I checked the cake and put it back in the oven, and came back into the living room to check the notifications on my phone. There were like a dozen texts from Rick. "What did you post on Instagram?" "Did you post that pic I took?" I texted back, "What are you talking about? I just RE-posted a video about the character. A public video. What's the problem?" Then I get an Instagram message from the character engineering firms BOSS. "YOU HAVE VIOLATED RICK'S NDA. TAKE THIS POST DOWN IMMEDIATELY!" I text Rick, who is at the movies with his son. His boss is blowing his phone up. I tell Rick that I will message the boss and apologize and tell him that I was not aware that I was not allowed to REPOST a video that is ALLLLLLLLL over social media right now. I had no idea that Rick even had an NDA. I know he has in the past, and he is always very careful to not share too much about what he does there, usually until AFTER the project is completed. So Rick and I are both a little baffled about why reposting the video is SUCH a huge deal that the CEO would message me with a threatening tone... Maybe it was the blurb I included about him puppeteering the character? I am not sure. But what I do know is now Rick is in deep s*** because of me. And I am not entirely sure that the CEO isn't going to threaten legal action. I just cost Rick one of two sources of income we have. All over a video on Instagram that was up a total of MAYBE ten minutes, that even if it had stayed up, a grand total of MAYBE twenty people would've seen. Nonetheless, I am feeling mighty stupid right now. |
