Work Is Hard

Oh Shaycarl, I'd hoped you would stop giving me reasons to frown at your videos, but you did it again already.

In his attempt to defend the move to L.A. this summer, he revealed another bombshell: he's going to stop editing the videos himself. That's right, he's going to hire some guy to do it for him. He then proceeded to complain about how it takes 4 hours to edit and upload the videos. Wow, that's rough. It's a good thing nobody else has to work for 4 hours in an air-conditioned room in a comfortable chair with no boss, all to make tens of thousands of dollars.

Yes, I'm bitter. I come from a family who has worked their asses off to make ends meet, with obstacle after obstacle preventing them from getting ahead. And going by Shay's stories of old, you'd think he would be the same. But to hear him complain about doing a little work for his "dream job" just really aggravated me. Especially when this is all with the intention of making even more money by working for places like The Station.

I honestly don't think he ever truly experienced being hard up for money, based on him talking about being in tens of thousands of dollars of debt before. It sounded like he's always had a love for spending money, even if he didn't have it. And he comes from what appears to be a well-off family who I'm sure lend plenty of hands. I've known people like that. Money and possessions are their only goals in life. I won't say for sure if Shay is like that, but it's an ugly way to live, and he's sure showing signs of it.

So yeah, fuck it. If somebody else is going to edit the videos, why bother watching? He might be in them, but it won't be his personal touch editing them for humor and whatnot. And just knowing that he's too lazy to do it himself will leave a bad taste in my mouth anyway. If he's ready to ignore Shaytards even farther to focus on his solo career, then he's going to have a rude awakening on the day that he realizes it wasn't simply his own personality that made him successful. It was the entire family dynamic, and his personal interactions with the fans. You know, the very thing he's willing to throw away now just so that he can be ready for the future.

I don't think he actually plans to come home from L.A. Wouldn't be the first time I've caught him fibbing to the viewers.


p.s. And the fanboys are all over this one. Quick, how fast can you defend every one of his decisions! Bonus points for broken English.
