Darn that Omarosa!!
Her complete and utter incompetance and pathetic work habits cost Kwame the Apprentice. If I were him I would have punched her lights out for being such a loser...
That sad part is, that conniving, lying, backstabber will be even more famous now because in the media the more controversial you are the more famous you're gonna get.
For someone who was supposed to be so intelligent (e.g. masters degrees, doctorate, white house job, hard working struggling from nothing to the top) how could she be so stupid and incompetant?
Someone so smart shouldn't have to stoop so low as to bring up the race card like that...
Stick her on a boat with Paris Hilton and send them out to sea...
Hopefully it was all just an act because it's just hard to believe that someone like that could really exist but in reality...she probasbly really is like that...

i really really dont like her. if she comes back for the 2nd season i'm boycotting. she's only there to look "pretty" and be a b*tch so people remember her.
and yes, she cost the dude the job, but it was his fault for picking her.
There are these little things called time zones asshole. Fvcking moron.

Are we speaking in English, or am I out of touch with "reality"?

At what point did the show cut to the live show? The whole timing of everything was really confusing. During the Golf tournament Amy commented about how beautiful the greens were with the leaves turning. So did the golf outing happen in the Fall? Thats a long time to wait to hear the decision!
When Trump brought in the old employees to ask them who they thought should win was that taped? It looked like they were wearing different clothes. So was the only live part the last 5 minutes were he made the final decision? That whole setup was weird.
Omarosa was supposedly fired from 4 jobs in 2 years in the Clinton Administration. I saw an article about it at Yahoo News (can't find the link now).

It happened as Kwame and Bill were walking in the door for the final decision. EVERYTHING ELSE before that was taped/edited. I was wondering when they were going to do it, and Mark Burnett has a thing for LIVE reveals.
BR, get over yourself.
I remember thinking -- the first time Omarosa screwed up -- "You know, I bet Kwame could just fire her if he wants to. He should." Maybe he would have been given the job if he had.

My wife and I were watching that and said while it was happening that Kwame should just bench her. Send her back to her room and tell her not to come out.
Omarosa is so wrapped up in her own self importance that nothing else matter. She's done just about nothing in her life. She worked at the White House? So did Monica.
Kwame should have been better but ...
I'm glad they are going forward with that building in Chicago. Right after 9-11 Turmp said they weren't going to do it. I'm glad they are coming back to it after things cooled off.

(Apprentice junkies unite!)
Man I hate Omarosa too. Shes such a coniving liar. Wife and I saw her on Oprah not too long ago and she was a bitch there too. I don't even think Oprah believed her, and that was before the little phonecall incident they caught on tape. I like how Trump cut her off last night that was funny hahaha. Kwami screwed himself when he let her walk all over him. He should have been more aggressive and reprimanding with her.
I always liked Bill. Glad he got it!
What the hell was Sam's briefcase with $250k about? Was that real?
Wife heard/read that Trump hired Amy for something as well? I think he was just succumbing to his weakness for women if he did. :p

No. You'd be pissed if you hadn't seen some movie you'd been looking forward to and the ending was given away in a thread title too. It's bullshit that this guy did this. A considerate person, yes, even myself would have written "Apprentice Results: Spoilers Inside." All of these egocentric east coast assholes can suck it.

My bad for spoiling it...
But on the upside there are at least two more seasons of The 'Donald.'.....

While i do agree that some warning should have been given, it's not like this was the Matrix Revolutions or anything (if you recall how hyped up everyone was before it was released). i mean, i wasn't exactly sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for the results. Just the fact that Quami picked Omarosa should have clued you in on the results last week.

Chill, man. Like it's been mentioned...it's "The Apprentice!" Not the gender of your next child or something.
Besides, you have to understand that although we Mountain, Central, and Eastern time zone people always hear the whole "Delayed on the West Coast" thing, we don't THINK about it because 3 of the 4 time zones NEVER have a delay. Give us some slack on our ignorance to the sensitivity of West Coast network television viewers. Jeez.
:rolleyes:

Chill, man. It's just Jesus made of feces.
Excuse me for enjoying the show and not wanting the ending spoiled. Just because it isn't a big deal to you doesn't mean it can't be a big deal to other people. Inconsiderate pricks.

BR, don't let it get you whacked out. It is a typically "east coast" move. It's an un-written rule on ANY forum of repute, always give spoiler alerts...
Not saying your a thoughtless jerk or anything like that O-MAC, OK? Obviously you rather enjoyed the show like many, many others. I enjoyed it and thought it to be well done and even insightfull.
As a matter of fact, I'm a "small business" man and enjoyed this TV series more than the Matrix series. Which had me laughing at the stupidity of the so called plot. Just my opinion.
Omarosa wasn't the only lame brain, most of the women were out of thier league. If Kwami were just a bit more aggressive, the job would have been his. I don't think Bill is going to be truly happy down the road. Of course, an outstanding salary makes up for that but Bill was mavarick and he may have a hard time answering to the Donald. Maybe not.

Being a So Cal native, I've always complained about the extreme east coast bias regarding TV programming, News.
It's almost like the west coast is completely forgotten about. There are 35 MILLION Americans in California alone (never mind all the other states) who NEVER get to see anything "LIVE" unless it's a sporting event.
And speaking of sports, good luck watching a football game after 2:00PM in this part of the country. Even Brian Killmead on the Faux News Channel said, "you've got to get up pretty early to watch the game when you're on the West Coast." Certainly we wouldn't want a game to interfere with New York's primetime programming, would we?
How about Presidential debates that start at 4:00 o'clock out here...while we're all STILL AT WORK! Or the president's address to the nation at 5:00 PST...while we're STILL AT WORK! EVERYTHING gets programmed around New Yorker's need to not be inconvenienced at missing "American Idol".
During the 2002 World Series everyone complained that the ratings were low. Why? Because the east coast didn't have any of their precious teams in series, so why watch? Assholes! And then they complained that the series started to late in the evening and went past their precious bed time. :grumble:

Didn't affect me...but AMEN, BR.
"Omorosa Biatch".
:lol:
On that topic, wow. She was an UNBELIEVABLE biatch. Drama queen, liar, snotty stuck up biatch. I think she definitely contributed to Kwame's demise, but really...he should have been more aggresive with her.
btw, I like Bill and I'm glad he won...but I was a big Amy fan as well.

I was in downtown Chicago about a month ago on a Saturday walking toward navy pier. There were all these people milling around trying to look sharp. So then there's this super long line of people going around a corner. I ask this cop helping with traffic what was up. He says "Apprentice 2".:rolleyes:

Though she may have contributed to his firing, Kwame ultimately got himself fired for ever selecting her to be on his team for the final task. As Trump said, he showed very poor managerial skills for the whole Jessica Simpson concert deal. I believe the best man won.

They showed some of the Apprentice 2 candidates from here in KC on the news last night. Buncha goobers. They were all "fired" before they could move to the next round. :P
I never really liked Troy. He always seemed to cheesy to me.

Everybody's got their strengths and weaknesses...that's the beauty of it...it's just like real business in a way. Some people will like them and some people won't. But as long asthey get the job done and please the right people they'll be there.

You could tell that Trump was none-too-pleased with Omarosa's lies, but he restrained himself.

Bill's team got behind him and helped him win. Kwami had Troy who'd walk through fire for him but Omarosa was so incredibly self-involved. There's no way she'd have been an asset to anyone. A project like that will invariably have some glitches. It's how you deal with the problems that sets you apart. Unfortunately for Kwami, Omarosa was either the source of some of his team's problems or she'd make small problems bigger because of her laziness.
Kwami carried himself very well but he really wasn't as a standout manager. If you're going to take on someone like Omarosa, you just have to be prepared to be hyper-anal even if that's not your style. She's just too high maintenance. You can't leave her unsupervised at ALL. And that's part of what management involves. Sometimes you don't have all the pieces in place. Until you do, a good manager adapts to compensate (temporarily) for the weaknesses of his people. After all, the client/customer just wants and deserves results. He doesn't care if one of your employees is the world's biggest fvck-up. That's not the customer's problem. It's yours.

First off, internet etiquette spankings all around...BR is absolutely justified in being pissed off and if you don't understand why you NEED to learn it for your own good.
Next, I missed the final episode but caught up with it on Television Without Pity (http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com/story.cgi?show=125&story=6497)'s website earlier today.
I -did- see the next-to-last episode...for those who missed it:
The gang is eating dinner together at a restaurant and Omarosa gets a phone call in regard to the movement of Jessica Simpson's band...the lady calling her is one of Trump's regular employees, a woman who does this stuff for a living. You can tell that she's pissed with Omarosa (who completely blows her off) and knows that Omarosa had no clue how to handle this situation but she lets it ride overnight.
The next morning this lady calls Kwame to apprise him of the situation, something he's been blissfully unaware of for awhile. When he pointedly questions Omarosa about it she LIES to him and says that she was never actually contacted by the lady in question but simply received a message that the woman would like to speak with her the next day.
A complete and utter lie.
I don't know if this was staged or if it was true. If asked I would guess that it was REAL...I've worked with too many incompetent boobs like Omarosa to believe that they'd need to fabricate the situation.
What an asinine thing to do on national television....it completely destroyed any lingering trust people could have invested in Omarosa, exposing her as the manipulative, shallow individual she truly is.
What an eye-opener!!!

And yet, she will STILL get that alk show, that clothing line and whatever comes her way because she's a celebrity now....controversy ALWAYS brings in the dough...the funny thing then will be reading about her life a few years from now in the entertainment mags....
Because it's not like she broke the law or anything like that. Look at all the celebs now making money off their pathetic lives...
Enough-A-Rosa showed us all on national TV the bumbling rude idiots us normal people deal with every day in our hum drum lives. That could be why she's so popular. We all KNOW or have dealt with people like that...
