Just last week while coming back from Canada, the border crossing official asked me what I did.
What happened next will make you laugh…
—
Agent: What do you do?
Me: I’m an Internet Entrepreneur.
Agent: So what do you do?
Me: I turn entrepreneurs into online celebrities by building their brands and web platforms.
Agent: You talk like a bad ass.
Me: I am a badass.
Agent: Who have you made famous?
Me: You probably haven’t heard of any of them. Being internet famous is different than being Hollywood famous. You’re only known to a specific group of people.
Agent: Want to know why I asked you what you do?
Me: Why?
Agent: Your handwriting. It’s really bad. Like a doctor’s.
Me: I know.
Agent: Marisa Murgatroyd. I’ve never seen that name before. It’s like a transformer.
Me: Exactly.
Agent: I bet you’re the only one there is.
Me: Yes. I am. That comes in handy if you want to be Internet famous.
Agent: Have a nice day.
Me: (walks in the wrong direction)
Agent: Ma’am, America is that way (points straight ahead)
