So every day I was working to develop myself

and that’s what you must do.

And as I was working to develop myself,

I applied for a job as a disc jockey WMBF, Miami Beach.

I went to a guy named Milton Butterball.

 

I said,

"How you doing, Mr. Butterball?

I like to get a job as a disc jockey."

 

He looked at me and said,

"Do you have any broadcast background?"

 

I said,

"No sir, I don’t."

He said,

"We don’t have any jobs available."

I said, 

"Yes sir."

 

I went back to Mr. Washington and I told him,

he said,

"Don’t take it personally".

 

He said most people are so negative

they will have to say no seven times

before they say yes.

He said go back again.

So I went back again.

 

I said,

"How you doing Mr. Butterball? My name is Les Brown."

 

He said,

"I know what your name is. What do you want"

 

I said,

"I like to know whether or not you have any jobs as disc jockey, sir?"

 

He said,

"Didn’t I just tell you yesterday we didn’t have any jobs?"

 

I said,

"Yes sir, but I don’t know whether or not

somebody got laid off or somebody was fired, sir."

 

He said,

"No one was laid off or fired. Now get on out of here."
