Brush with Greatness

True story. My first “real job” out of college was selling copiers. Outside sales. One day I was out cold calling in my super horrible sales territory, just going through an office building talking to people. I went into a small movie production company and met the owner, Terry Lofton (yes, close last name). They had produced this wonderful film — Nail Gun Massacre. I have never seen it.

Apparently Terry died in 2011, at the age of 48, and NGM was the only film he ever made.

I did not succeed in selling them a copier.
