The Struggling Blogger

Update on Mr. Arpee’s post:

Update: Mr. Perlas has apologized through an email. Though he has expressed his desire to apologize in person, I have declined because my schedule has not been so forgiving. I have also informed him that we both need to put closure to this matter which has generated too much blogger buzz. In his email, Mr. Perlas did admit to being brash and has apologized. I have accepted it to finally close this chapter.
I believe it was better for us to say our goodbyes as civilized professionals. Life is short and we cannot afford to hate.
To my blogger friends and acquaintances, truly you have shown how solid we are as a community. Let us continue to support each other and work towards the good of the collective.
Mr. Perlas, again I reiterate, apology is accepted.

This one should be more appropriately titled “Don’t mess with a blogger!” because by now, words are already circulating around the blogosphere about how a rude PR man in the name of Jayce Perlas treated a blogger badly.

Arpee of Gadgets Galore went to a certain product launching and as he was about to register, he was met by this Perlas and asked him about his business there. And what followed was humiliation on the part of our fellow blogger, as this PR guy simply don’t give a damn about whatever Arpee said.

Perlas was working with Perlas and Luna, the event company who is handling the product launching. I don’t know if he is a part owner of the company, but by now, there are lots of blog posts about his improper conduct which would definitely affect the future bookings of this company.

Don’t know Arpee really, and I haven’t been to his blog before. Just saw the post of TechAtHand.Net and followed the link.

I’ve never been to any event representing myself as a blogger, but I certainly don’t want to be treated like what Arpee experienced if I do.

Just spreading the word.
