How to Cope with Being Suddenly Famous, Thursday Second Period

Today's class was something it had occurred to Herc he needed to cover for one person in particular, though it would probably go in one ear and out the other much like ninety percent of what he told him. "Now, I know some of you are probably still recovering from recent events, so this isn't going to be a particularly heavy duty class. Let's talk about your coworkers," Herc began. "There are really two things we're talking about here, how you deal with your coworkers, who might be not famous and kind of weirded out by your fame, and how you, as a public person, talk about your coworkers." Chuck. "I can't really help you with the first one, I have to admit, but it's something to consider. As far as the second part, it's really important to consider what you say and how it might be perceived." To be fair, this was something all Hansen men had a problem with. "For example, say you're an actor working on a movie and someone asks you what you think of your costar. You almost never see an interview where--" shit, who was popular these days? "--where Jennifer Lawrence says that Ryan Gosling or whoever is a real pain in the ass to work with, a terrible actor and it's definitely his fault the movie's gonna be bad. There are reasons for that. It doesn't make you look good, it makes you look petty. Sometimes it's a good idea to be a little more circumspect, even if it means not exactly telling what you think of as the truth, because the truth won't help your situation." Chuck. Oh, who was Herc kidding? "Right, so, just something to keep in mind. Now, I don't really have an activity for this week, but if anyone wants to talk about what happened with that whole mess, or thinks petting Max would make them feel better, we're here for you." Especially Max. Max was great at comforting people.

Chuck had Max. Chuck spent the entire class fussing over Max.

Chuck paid absolutely no attention to what the old man was saying, besides the one point where he muttered "Bullshit" under his breath.
