Apprentice Finale-- popcorn at my place

Randall was looking like toast last week . . .



I suffer from the same sensitivity that you do. A few nuggets of wisdom were shared with me and I'm "trying" to incorporate them into my life. First, remember that nobody can hurt your feelings unless you let them. You can always reject what is being forced on you emotionally.
Second, nothing changes unless you change it. If you don't want the behavior to be repeated then you need to take action. Otherwise the kid has learned that his behavior is the way to get things done, because everyone lets him get away with it.
In the meantime I sympathize because I've been there.

It means you don't watch the show, I guess.
Or if you do, and you're reading some kind of racial comment into my choice of wording -- don't.

It's a tough choice. I really like both of the finalists, and I'd hate to see either win just because the other screwed up the final assignment. I can't decide who I want to win!

Please put plenty of butter on my popcorn. smiling smiley

I think the show has became a contest to find the most mediocre talent.

Of the final few, these 2 are simply the least contentious.

Whichever person wins this one, it won't be the best person for the job. It won't be a leader. It won't be someone creative.

That's the game.

I don't know if I agree. I didn't see the first season but I'm a lot more impressed with these two than I was with the last season finalists.

I definitely like Randall better, but he just wasn't dealin' last week, then they showed his event getting rained out in the previews, so I think it's pretty much a no-brainer. I'm sure they did some market research and found the average viewer likes to have everything spelled out to them in little hints, rather than have to truly guess at what's going to happen.
