Be nice to people on the way up

October 20, 2007

Words that must seem foreign to Paul Teutul Sr. The trip back down will be hard for someone like Sr, having alienated so many people with his obnoxious self centered style he no doubt will fall hard. The custom bike business wont last forever but apparently Sr thinks it will. He continues to spend money like a fat kid at the donut shop, constructing ever more elaborate shops. Does he really think he is an institution and not the “fad: that he really is. Businesses like his are cyclical and his customers will abandon him in droves once the hype wears off. Had he been the least bit polite and treated people with even the smallest amount of respect he may have been able to weather the end of the fad, but when you treat your people and sub contractors like shit they are only loyal to your money, once that runs out its adios Sr. His comments about Vinnies departure during last nights episode showed what a asshole he really is, its obvious that Sr was treating him like an “employee” when he was anything but. Who does he think holds Jr’s hand all the time?   I cant wait till the fall… be sure and remember that I told you it was coming, it oughta be good for a laugh.
