PJ was down the local pool hall playing a game of pool with Marley. There was nothing better to him sometimes than relaxing with a decent game of pool. Even if it did mean fraternizing with the newly arrived wanna be mobsters, if they knew what was good for them they wouldn't dare approach him about entrance to the family while he was in mid shot. You'd like to think so anyway. When taking a shot an eager and cocky petty theif approached PJ. He held back his displeasure due to the very respectful way he started until he said... |

Ah but what if their blood line was a leader once? Surely then you SHOULD give them the position??? |

Oderus overhears the commotion from a nearby table where he is busy snorting blue chalk. He walks over to the table where PJ, Marley, and the Cow are speaking |

Kates leans against the nearby lamppost and chirps into the conversation. |

Please pretend that my nouns and verbs connect in their usual manner and make sense. I apologize- it has been a long and trying day. |

It is always nice to see these young mobsters with high asperations of power, and to work their way to the top but they must realize it might take a while, and there is only a certain number of positions in most families. Do not get discouraged when you are told no, especially when it is a job of high importance such as left hand man and right hand man.. I mean really would you let some random thug in YOU family have a lot of power? No, you would make them earn respect and earn their position in the family. |

Bravo PJ. It always astonishes me when I see young criminals think that they can skip over any normal hard work and loyalty to be parachuted into a position of power. Having said that, it's happened in the past, with tragic consequences, so it's not beyond the realms of possibility that someone with a little bit of chutzpah might get lucky and ask a leader who isn't as considered in his/her decisions. Incidentally, rumours that Boaby only keeps Merrick as LHM due to his toilet cleaning skills and contacts in the dancing bearded ladies community are entirely erroneous. |

As a young crew leader, really having just founded my crew, I was constantly approached by young mobsters. People I had never seen or met before. Fresh faced idiots, directly off the boat, out of the gutter, or from wherever these young fools spring up. All of them came to me with the same statement. 'I see no you have no Left Hand Man, Im the guy you need!' Really, still wet behind the ears thug? I dont know you anymore than I know that homeless bum sleeping in the trash heap over there. It takes a serious lack of intelligence to approach a Bolded Suit on the streets and demand to become his second man. Postions of power are to be earned, not handed out. |

Well Mr PJ, this takes me back to when my father was authed in Las Vegas last year in February, it was a late winters night, the snow outside was falling fast and the Godfather of that time, Hypno, was sleeping with my sister..well, that has nothing to do with the story, but anyway.. |

People are very quick to say what they know the leader wants to hear, but saying it and actually believing it in yourself are two totally different things, it's where most of the bad blood comes from. |

This is something I too have seen recently, it is almost as offensive as "ken i join ur kru?". As John said earlier it is amazing that these individuals think they can just jump into such a position without any inputting any hard work. |

I agree with most points that have been made, but given some exceptions, I wouldn't be offended as some stated above. There's new bloodlines out there who set goals from themselves that are pretty hard to reach under a short period of time, perhaps even a lifetime. But in my opinion, it tells me they want to go the distance and actually become something. Now there are individuals who care nothing but their own success. However, I believe those are easy to distinguish. My answer will always be 'No' unless their bloodline worked closely with me before and then I would calmly direct them down the right path that might give them a chance to become a part of my upper structure one day. All they need is alittle guidance rather than a interview with the back of my hand. If there's a experienced bloodline asking for a position in my upper structure at a young age, then that's a completely different story. They know how these streets work and for them to approach me with that question is a slap in my face. My response to them would be no response at all. I would simply label this person as a rotten apple and put him on the back burner until proven worthy. Not only did they completely ruin their chances of becoming a part of my upper structure, but they have me questioning their motives and as a result, I can't trust them. In no way do I want to surround myself with people who only care about themselves rather than family. |
