I find inspiration in this: "In 1996, I suffered a stroke and was sidelined for one year. After I started to recover, my wife encouraged me to paint again. It was a form of therapy to get me out of my depression and start to feel productive again." That's what we do, eh? Get up again and again. Keep on keeping on. That trait of "hard working Mexican" plays out in many ways. It's a survival skill. Sergio is a good example of that and I thank you for sharing his story and inspiration.el poquitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05835166474061862319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246301165802947688.post-63041115887262434742013-01-12T20:19:35.875-08:002013-01-12T20:19:35.875-08:00You're very welcome!

As th...Roberto Aguirre was head of that department. As the frequency of the commercials on tv increased, so did the lists of names to call back. At a certain time, I offered to train the increasing number of telesales people, which Roberto allowed me to do.<br />The job became very boring after a few weeks, especially since we were unable to find people to invest a substantial amount in such a venture. I did not see a future in this but I liked Univisa as a company. However I felt that I was working under my capacities untill late one Friday afternoon...<br />I was getting ready for the week-end and had my jacket on that had little pin with the Belgian flag. Suddenly a chubby guy with a very friendly face and inquiring eyes stepped up to me and asked why I was wearing the German flag. I had never seen this man before. When I corrected him and told him that it was the Belgian flag which represented my native country, he immediately asked me if I came from the Dutch or the French speaking part of Belgium. When I told him Dutch, he mentioned the few Dutch words he had learned in the past from an ex-girlfriend, a KLM stewardess. We were having a good time and making all kinds of jokes. After he left, Roberto came to me, asking if I knew who I just talked to. I said no. He said: well that was Mister Jaime Davila! When that did not ring a bell to me, he mentioned that he was a big shot, the number 2 of the company.<br />With that knowledge I entered the week-end, determined to follow-up on the nice conversation we had. On Monday morning I presented myself with my freshly updated resume to Marta, Jaime's assistant to ask if I could just see him for just 5 minutes. She told me that he was extremely busy (afterwards I found out this was in the period of Hallmark buying Univisa)but that she would put me under the long list of people that wanted to speak to Jaime and that she did not have any idea when he would have the time to see me. Needless to say that I was anxious that whole day and extremely frustrated to find out I had a missed call from Marta the next day when I was out on my lunch break. I immediately went back to see her (which was at the total oposite part of the floor) and the only thing she could offer was to put my name again all the way under the impressive list of other people. This time I asked her if I could add a sentence to my name. So she asked me what I wanted her to write. I told her that I would like to write something myself as it was going to be in Dutch. So I wrote: "Ik weet dat u het heel erg druk heeft, maar ik zou u heel graag even willen spreken". <br />Not even 5 min after I got back to my desk, I was called back to have a chat with Mr. Davila. Again I went there (with my resume under my arm) and told him that since he was so busy, I only needed 5 min of his time. He invited me in his office, offered me a drink and we had a very pleasant conversation of at least 1/2 hour in which I could inform him about my studies at the Univerisity of Brussels and that I felt that my capacities were not maximised in this company. He took my resume and just asked me to be patient...<br />And here I was, on the top floor of the Die Hard building a few months later working directly under Jaime Davila as his Market Researcher that resulted in a few really interesting experiences as well, that I'd be happy to write about in a next post.<br /> <br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246301165802947688.post-11405032688986016052012-10-05T07:10:14.983-07:002012-10-05T07:10:14.983-07:00Hi Elia,

When I started working for Univisa it was back in the days of the office being at the Sunset Blvd location. Being fluent in Spanish, I was asked through a temp agency to do some outbound telesales. All day I had to call people who had responded to a commercial on Univision, soliciting people that wanted to open an all latin video store franchise. Needless to say that everybody and their brother responded to this commercial. Most of them asking if they could rent a certain video title while I was trying to find future store managers interested in investing a substantial amount of money in a video store! Not an easy task. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246301165802947688.post-79432114775250103292012-09-25T08:34:03.734-07:002012-09-25T08:34:03.734-07:00I somehow missed your post from last year.

I remember the vibe you're describing very well. Especially since I was the only Belgian in the company, it allowed me to look at the day-to-day Univisa crazyness from a slightly different prospective. It was a very interesting experience (to say the least). Let me know if you want extra some stories for your book. I am based in the Netherlands now.

Whites in power have long pit blacks & Latinos against each other. It's the old divide & conquer game. For years blacks didn't get cast in good roles. An Egyptian queen role went to a white woman when there was a black woman readily available. It's called racism. See they create a great Latino part & give it to a black actor. That way blacks & Latinos will continue to fight each other. We all know that whether you are black or Latino if you look white, you're supposed to give up your culture to pass. If you look more African, they call you a nigger. If you look in between it depends. If blacks & Latinos sit down and work together on the issues a lot more can be done. I do agree that when I watch Latino or U.S. t.v. programs & films you only see white or mixed (Native American & white) looking Latinos in the roles. They're not casting Latinos that show more of their African heritage either. The simple fact that they created a role of a "black Cuban" is a huge leap forward.
