How to lose your job in Hollywood

1) Saying things every one knows to be true*:
- The Grudge "takes our client Sarah Michelle Gellar, who now is nothing at all, and it makes her a star, potentially. Suddenly the Sarah Michelle Gellar space is meaningful."
- Halle Berry "will give up a little money to get a good director or co-star- thereby essentially buying insurance for her career, which needs burnishing after "Catwoman."
2) While being an agent
3) Even, a "different" kind of agent
-Not ever wearing suits, being friendly, or going to parties
-But still saying things like "They'd be happier, we'd be happier, and we'd be richer" about a "synergy" between J.J. Abrams and Ford.
- And greeting other agents "Are you a man or a mouse?"
- Followed by, this pitch "is indeed mouse, not man." Indeed.
- And using words like space, environment, universe to say, "The musically capable girl-band space inhabited by The Donnas'
4) To a magazine of reputation
5) As though you, and not your clients, were of interest.
