DON DRAPER - Firing off Jaguar 

Yep, the guy literally wanted some kid who made a few fliers to look over Dons work as if Don wasn’t an educated professional with years of experience working with big clients. Anyone would feel insulted. You don’t have a kid who knows how to do CPR participate in actual surgery.

They scored his account by getting some trusted friend(sry don't remember her name)to sleep with him that's why Don is so disgusted by him

@@leaveme3559 it was Joan who slept with him

@@RavynSent yeah

Wasnt this the guy that wanted to sleep with cristina Hendricks as part of a business deal, and that was the thing that made Draper hate him?

For Fuckin real

Underrated comment 👏🏻

"Oh man, I love this scene! The characters are awesome, but where is the background music that's completely unrelated to the scene? Everyone knows you gotta add in an overused sound clip to make a great scene even better!" - said nobody, ever. Whenever I hear it start up I move onto the next video, and this video is a prime example of a scene being ruined by music edited in after-the-fact. Only way it could be worse would be a song or sound bed with lyrics, but tiktok and yt shorts are loaded with videos edited by people that have terrible ideas, who think their additions to the original video is a great idea.

I wonder what goes on in their heads when they hear that garbage

LMAO this is pretty much everything I've thought about these

Let l youre not in sales are you.

@@edwardk12687 i literally got hired for sales 2 weeks ago. Please tell me how i should start shitting on clients because i got a chip on my shoulder and how thats good for business. Im begging you, i want a good laugh.

@@DaSquareful yes I am very interested in his sigma wisdom on the sales field too, this should be interesting

@@DaSquareful I work in sales, my revenue (not commission) was over 3 million last year. DO NOT WASTE TIME ON CLIENTS THAT ARE NOT WORTH YOUR TIME. I hang up on people just about everyday.

Pretty sure he did that 2 seasons ago in the s3 finale after losing hilton.

Exactly why Pete manages most accounts. He’s a grimy little pimp 😂

The whole Jaguar thing was terrible. That's a really shitty way to fuck up your mojo, your whole vibe in the workplace when it just makes you feel SICK about what you do.

Yeah but these are the same people who glorify Tony soprano

@@Nothingtoseehere-eo7zq true point

@@GGtheRealest I can actually understand where he came from in the scene. He's buzzed. He's courting a hotty that he wants to get serious about, so far his position in his industry is still stellar, ......and this Jaguar guy is a serious pain in the ass, and he's trying to get cheap kickbacks. I get all that. In the large overview though, it just shows how Draper is losing his shit.

He was Zen at the end of it all.

Or worse!!! The sigma mindset is absolutely brutal, and cruel, and unless you're a real baddass, as well as stupid rich, and extremely well connected it'll never work in your favor to be that big of an asshole all the time!!!

Lmao some high schooler balling his fist up with this song playing in his head😂😂

Did you even watch the video? Sure many of these type videos are ridiculous, but on these instance Don was totally on the right.

A good beat down can be a valuable lesson

@@Gaboxxy96 Of course but it’s till a TV show. The words and responses are scripted and written to happen that way. Conversations and situations in real life are never this straightforward

Sigma. Sigma. Sigma ! Have one for me lads. Sigma

what does "sigma" mean in the context of these comments? i don't understand it.

Take a drink everytike someone say smegma in the comments

I did and now I'm dead

Better to me Sigma than Sugma i guess...

Same bestie

I hate how this made me laugh

And then he drapered all over the place

Draper? I hardly know her!

Pull yourself together

Yup. The whole thing was a massive ego trip

Jaguar wasn’t massive. And he got suspended actually for blowing the Hershey’s meeting. You’re 100% wrong, don’t @ me.

@@MOHAMMAD66 naw You wrong as fuck

@@MOHAMMAD66 @Cohen Yep. The go along get along crowd will always find away to rationalize corruption or taking the insult. Draper extended business courtesy by meeting the fuk for dinner. It ends there. BTW, Herb is the pig that demanded Joan sex for Jaguar, and Don tried to stop it unlike all the other SCP principals.

@@MOHAMMAD66 I @ u

Yeah but it completely undercut what Joan had to do to get the account in the first place. I think it causes quite a bit of friction between them in the final season. They should never have even taken him on as a client and were allured by the Jaguar brand but Joan was correct in saying she endured far more than Don and was justified in resenting afterwards

I've done marketing my entire life and if a client said that they had a guy on their team that had brilliant ideas instead of being close to it I'd say great let me talk to him and let's see if we can improve your marketing and get you the best result. If the guy was an idiot and his ideas were stupid and not effective well maybe we would test them and prove that they were no good or just say no his ideas didn't work. But what if the guy turns out to be one of the most brilliant copywriters or marketers of all time. Better to be open to talent than close-minded. Now if the client is difficult all the time I understand why he wanted to fire him. That's a different issue. But as far as seeing what this flyer writer has to offer a true creative wouldn't be afraid of the competition and maybe they would end up hiring the guy

no one made her do that lol. Don even told her not to. ​@@zentazym1

@@Drew-sy2bn I don't know if you saw the show, but that was the idea. The client was just a giant pain in the ass every time he had to deal with them. He just got sick of jumping through hoops and what happens in this scene is just the straw that broke the camels back.

@@zentazym1in fairness, Don eventually had rescinded his suggestion and Joan went and did it anyway to go above and beyond. He didn’t know she had slept with him yet.

Lol. The sigma male shorts starter kit. Ignore plot. Produce content.

There’s so much wrong with what you said, like objectively wrong. Joan selling her body is not a virtue, Don was always against it, she never apologized to making him his work was degraded for it either. Don was aware that jaguar was trying to get several over them from the get go, from the reduced commission fee structure and then the gutting of the national campaign; then Herb wants to have a kid look at his work (it should be clear that this is so the kid can steal dons ideas, herb however is retarded and does this in a way where he thinks telling don to take pointers from the kid instead of other way around, don wont be this wiser - which was great writing). And then not even a week after they fired jaguar, Don won Chevy. Did you even watch this show at all ?

The client was a disgusting slob for demanding Joan prostitute herself (though she did do it) but here he's just asking Don to give a novice some opinions and guidance. Totally overreacted

I mean joan gave her body for money.The moment offer has been made partners gone to gray “we wont participate but we dont disagree either”.It should be direct refusal cause because of that single move entire company lost his bottom line.So client pushed them like rag doll. Like someone discussed this on reddit,the guy herb put will steal their ideas and rocket themselves as new agency.Then herb will directly kicked them out.And I disagree when people say he should fake accept to discuss with partners cause there was no exit strategy.They can’t pull new car company while they had jaguar.This was a loss in itself.

@@yalnklc6112 Don wasn’t thinking of any of that here. It was his ego. Also he shouldn’t be making those decisions himself when so many have sacrificed before him. The point is he’s immature and selfish.

I've never regretted it.

I fired my biggest client because he was a pain in the ass. He couldn't fathom it, and I'm still smiling about it 30 years later.

After the Joan shit I kinda don't blame Don for acting this way toward Herb

I wasn’t sure if that was it or not … 🤔🤔🤔

No, there's more backstory than that. The other guy had insulted him just prior to that

DO NOT BRING BUTTERED BREAD INTO THIS IT DID NOTHING WRONG !!!

Get my wife's buttered bread out of your MOUTH!🧈

​@@nickk4953 #LeaveTheButteredBreadAlone

I was confused to

Herb was a lecherous pervert. Dons antipathy derives from the fact that Herb tied the advertising agency's success at obtaining business from Jaguar to sexual favours from the head office manager, played by Christina Hendricks. Don was right morally

@@buildtime78years9 never seen the show but from what I can gather the fat guy insulted skinny guy by suggesting his work at advertising is equivalent to some kid who hands out fliers.

@@reka10 no if I remeber right in the show that guy wanted to have sex with a woman in the office as a part of a business deal. She was a friend to the other staff and worked up to gain a holding in the company. But ultimately she made the deal and Draper (jon hamm) was sick of working with him. This scene makes no sense out of context and people who make them think "just be a dick and it makes you badass.", absolutely hate them for butchering classic scenes out of context.

Or to get his guy working at the man's business to keep an eye on things and report back. Maybe some type of middleman or something.

Facts, real men don’t let their egos rule their decisions

Everyone of us is weak deep down and full with insecurity , life was and will always be how you present yourself to others , I will respect don draper more than most people because he did something with his life , yehh he's funked up but he make something he can feel proud of

@@samihaboubi6366 speak for yourself when you say every one of us is weak deep down. not all of us have such a sad view of our own strength

@Transitive Wisdom i think the fact that you took any of what i said as aggression shows YOUR weakness. i simply said don't speak for everyone when you say we're all weak. there's many people who would disagree with your statement, specifically military individuals or people in the work of civil defense. i never said i was all that lol take your misplaced drama elsewhere

Sigma shit was a joke from the beginning. Why you taking it seriously 😂

They knew his worth since they wanted to bring in their kid so bad for some fake internship but jaguar didn’t treat them well from the beginning

Actually things go very poorly for Don after this. I’m assuming you didn’t watch the series based on your comment but without spoiling too much, this is where he starts losing everything and also hurts a lot of other people in his life

Typically apply it to avoid copyright issues and the video getting taken down

I agree that he's very self centred with his choices but he did try to talk Joan out of it I always respected that Don would stand up for himself, while the rest of the "mad men" were sell outs who'd do anything for an account. I get that was the business but this attitude is the main thing that made Don likable to me (because as a person he wasn't great lol)

I think this is all supposed to be taken out of concept tho, the clip is an admiration for dons style, his confidence and mojo Who cares what happened in the storyline?

@@emergencyfood7660 Literally anyone who watched the show and actually knows what the scene means lol

​@@agentbuizel9875 It's great to watch Herb's face get smeared in shit here, but on both a professional and personal (Joan literally fucking this disgusting guy for the sake of the company) level Don is shitting the bed completely here. It's not a cool moment for him, it's a sign of how far he's let his ego dominate his professional life, and how little he either thinks or cares about what his colleagues have done for the account. It's not glamorous whatsoever and the sigma music is (as it always is) cringe as fuck

​@@emergencyfood7660 Maybe because this 'sigma grindset' RU-vid short takes a 7-season character arc about a broken man who's falling apart, making his life a living hell, hurting almost everyone around him, destroying his professional and personal relationships... and passes it off as some badass business god telling shit how it is and painting him as some aspirational figure for men everywhere?

If you’re unlucky, the majority of your clients can be aholes.

It's always them and never you, of course

Amen. I had a boss who taught me that lesson at a young age.

Funny if true

@joceja23 we both are 😭😭

Think they have to do it for copywrite reasons ... however the douche music could be at a lower volume.

@@LoveThatRod or set phazer to kill

It's lose not loose

Except he completely disregarded what Joan did for the company, went behind all the other partners' backs and threw the business out of the window because he couldn't suck up a little bit of disrespect from the client. This scene is selfish and reactionary, and marks the start of another spiral for Don. Joan loses so much respect for him after this

@@lifeaid6275 Don lost a lot of respect for Joan after what she agreed to do just to get the Jaguar business. Don was a serial adulterer living a double life but he respected Joan and didn't at any point try to get into her bed. He treated her as an equal, because she was just as good as any man in that company. To lower herself like that to a grotesque man like Herb, really made Don lose respect for her. The wider point being made by the writers here is that Herb crossed the line and got what he wanted (Joan) yet he refused to stop there, Don saw this and ensured Herb wasn't going to treat him like Lee Garner Jr treated Roger Sterling. For Don it wasn't just about the money, the big name companies, it was also about respect and integrity for the work itself. Getting it on merit and keeping it cos you're better than others. Not because you cut corners and sell yourself to ugly men like Lee Garner and Herb

@@happywanderer84 if it made him lose respect for her, it's only because Don saw himself in what she did (and as the show screams on so many occasions, he despises himself). He's a 'whorechild' after all - and his promiscuity is a primal and desperate way to seek the love he doesn't think he deserves but still seeks. Maybe you disagree, but if his opinion of Joan dipped because of that it's surely just projection? What right does a serial adulterer have to judge someone who (whilst single) sleeps with someone they find disgusting to benefit herself AND her colleagues? Don's filthy behaviour is purely for himself. He has no right to look down on her actions - and I actually don't think he does, anyway. I'm definitely not saying this is Don's lowest moment - his immediate thoughts are admirable and his response is badass. However, it's also a very selfish and thoughtless moment that shows he's putting his own ego before the colleagues and business he's dedicated almost a decade to. In this moment it's all about him, and realistically... how can Don look at Herb and feel he has so much moral high-ground? As Mathis says later, he's "just handsome" (I know that isn't true, but you can't deny that if Don looked like Herb his behaviour would NEVER be glamorised in the way it is). Don't get me wrong - Herb is definitely worse than Don, but Don is also an awful guy who wreaks destruction on (almost) anyone who gets close to him. So yeah, you rightfully call Herb an 'ugly man'... but Don is also an ugly man - he's just lucky enough to have found himself in a body that prevents people from seeing that (until they truly get to know him).

@@lifeaid6275 I don't deny that Don (up until the final episode of the series) is an ugly man but in this moment he sees himself as moral and upstanding, whereas Herb and Joan are gross and corrupt. It's part of his double life with its double standards. Ultimately, Don and Joan both needed the illusion to be shattered. For a long time Joan thought she was better than the Peggy's of the office, and as the series went on she realised she was always going to be worth less than a man in that world, right up to the point that her wealthy boyfriend ditches her (or should I say she ditches him) because she wants to go into business herself. Don needed a fall from grace to break the cycle. Ultimately it was not this badass treatment of the despicable Herb that caused his downfall, as Don kept failing upwards for most of the 1960s, even as he cheated on his beautiful wives and led his own brother to his death by abandoning him. No, what caused Don's downfall was telling the truth during the Hershey's pitch. The writing is so brilliant on this show that it's easy to see storylines such as this one in black and white, to view them as singular moments which were bad or good. The truth is Don would not reach contentment and maturity without failing first, and Joan would not reach where she does without life lessons and embarrassment.

You wont regret it.

Whats the name

@@funnyman929 The show is called Mad Men.

It’s a show set in the 60s definitely not the way to become successful In todays society
