1:45 p.m.
I block a few people on FB.
I just go with my gut instincts -- it is one of those bad habits I picked up from Donald Trump.
The slightest detection of contempt, you throw them out fast.
I read my dad Palith's business books, not just Trump's Think Big and Kick Ass, but Jeffrey J Fox's How to be a Good Boss --
He teaches, hire slow, fire fast.
I am a bit more humane, I start with, "call me Lehan".
Sidath, these friends of cousin Koshitha Gunadasa, they probably despise me.
Why should I be friendly with them? What's in it for me? There is no need.
In SL, I do not really have to build any relationships or compromise on moral integrity (US interpretation), there is always Thilanga uncle --
He is a career politician, he can handle local politics.
People like these guys, Sidath, they are never going to get along.
It is best to be cautious.
I talk to dead people (just joking), I listened to Dave Goldberg:
I can decide very quickly if I don't like someone.
I want my friends list down to 100 from 400 now.
This is because I have reduced pain-thresholds, I have reduced capacity for stress coping --
I have very limited emotional capital, I get tired quickly.
People who want to reach me, they can contact our team or company or me directly --
But they should, as per conventional wisdom, use our trusted contacts for legitimate, evidenced business enquiries that are worth our efforts.
Our firm has evolved, we are hiring from the top percentile of the domain expertise population.
Things have changed. I hope for the better.
There is no reason for people to call me. There is enough info on our website.
As you can see, I have a very small block list.
Waruna █████ our business, he is Sriyani, Lal's sister's kid. They have lost everything. They are now ███████. I feel sorry for them. Waruna Buwaneka is drug dealer ███████████████ friend -- they went to President's College in Kotte together. Sriyani hates me because my dad Palith was driving, when according to (uncle) Martinn Teng, some motorcyclist crashed through front windshield, killing her husband Buwaneka de Silva.
██████, she seems to be an unsavoury individual, she was rude to me -- seems to have the character required to operate in the direct sales of sleazy sole proprietorship. This is not usually a bad thing. But I saw she has acted in a malicious manner. I mean, ffs, haha.
█████, there was suspicious activity on FB. I have decided to end personal contact with their █████████. I am ready for professional and business relationships only. But friendship, visiting homes, it is out of the question after what happened with ███████.
