Can you imagine hiring someone for SBD? Well I am!

For those of you who are unaware, I recently found out something disturbing about a man that I used to call my “good friend,” fellow steemian @bluerthangreen. In case you missed my recent post about the whole situation, here is the video I made where I show the evidence that left me utterly dumbfounded.

ADVICE FROM THE COMMUNITY

After my cry for help and advice post, a lot of good ideas came in. Basically, the steemit community helped me to see that if I just turned my back on him now, he may never snap out of it. Now may be the very time that he needs me most. Here are just a few of the helpful comments that I received:

---

This is seriously dark. We will pray for @bluerthangreen. What on earth could have caused this? He had such a bright future still ahead of him... When your friend is in such deep trouble, don't let him go, this might be the exact moment he needs you the most. - @fitzgibbon

I think we need to have an intervention before he spirals out of control. - @canadianrenegade

I mean... I hate to say it, but the only justifiable thing to do here is to turn him in to the proper authorities. Sure, he may serve some time,at the very least be put into rehab, but as the friend you are, eventually he will come to see the error of his ways, and he will thank you for helping him get the help he needed in recovering from this tragic portion of his life. - @mikepm74

You should really ask for help for this guy. Maybe he's going through something that he don't want others to know. - @eastmael

OMG this is SERIOUS! If you value your friendship you HAVE to do an intervention, for his sake, for his family's sake. This sort of thing has got to stop. - @trevor.george

Once I saw what the community had to say, I knew that I had to intervene. I do care about the guy, and even if I have to suffer myself in an attempt to help him, I’ll do it. While I would rather not notify the local authorities unless I absolutely have to, I thought that perhaps a form of rehab would be next.

Unfortunately it seems like the modern version of “rehab” turns addicts into “rehab addicts” instead, and I’m not exactly looking to turn him into one of those either. Truth be told, I should have realized that there may have been a situation with @bluerthangreen five months ago.

At the point when he made this post he found a small shirt that I had made and decided to wear it… out in public. In the post that he made he even mentions the following:

---

my willingness to where a shirt that is perhaps a little too tight for my current body condition

Yeah! It was right there in front of my eyes many months back. If I had only be able to notice the warning signs, it may have never come to this. But… unfortunately I was too busy working hard, steeming hard, raising the @little-peppers, loving @mama-pepper, and working on our homestead to notice.

I cannot stress this point enough, PLEASE MAKE SURE TO LEAVE ENOUGH TIME IN YOUR LIFE FOR YOUR FRIENDS. If you notice the warning signs early enough things will be much easier for everyone involved.

CAN MY VERSION OF REHAB HELP THE MAN?

Today I have made a choice, and using the blockchain will be able to help. I know that he will not respond well if he realizes what I am up to, so I offered him a job. The job itself is rather simple, but it may just be the shot of testosterone that he needs. I know that @tuck-fheman would approve, as once he wondered when “anything that my generation considered to be laced with testosterone” seemed to be absent from our community. Once again, I will try to bring some manliness back!

In response to what I found out, I offered to pay @bluerthangreen 200 SBD to be my “BODYGUARD” for my trip today. This post will also serve as a contract for him to accept the job.

I am hoping that by spending a day protecting me and not listening to Celine Dion, he will snap out of whatever it is he is going through. Trust me, I’ll keep you posted!

Here is the job description:

• Protect @papa-pepper from diseases, illnesses, and bodily harm on this trip to Texas and back.
• Not listen to any Celine Dion for the entire trip.
• Wear sunglasses.
• Look exceptionally menacing when necessary.
• Help me drive to Houston, TX and back.
• Call me “Al.”

A CONTRACT DOCUMENTED ON THE BLOCKCHAIN

This post will also serve as a binding legal contract between @bluerthangreen & @papa-pepper. By replying in a positive manner below, @bluerthangreen is promising to agree to follow the requirements listed in the job description above.

If in any way @bluerthangreen does not fulfill every requirement, my offer will be retracted and the payment of 200 SBD for the “services rendered” will NOT be paid. Failure to fulfill the job description will be seen as a breach of contract by @bluerthangreen and will release @papa-pepper from any responsibility to pay.

WHY A BODY GUARD? AND WHY HOUSTON?

Later today, I will be on the “CRYPTO TALK LIVE” radio show hosted by @xtrodinarypilot!
