This Ain’t Business Bitch, This Personal! 

This Ain’t Business Bitch, This Personal! — This is an example of the literary reversal theme wherein a well known oft quoted line or trope is inverted to show another facet of meaning to the idea. This example occurs in the movie New Jack City that takes the famous trope “THIS IS NOT PERSONAL; IT’S BUSINESS” and inverts it to make the point that ultimately narcotic drugs did destroy the uneasy symbiotic balance between the strange bed fellows: organized crime and organized policing.

In words of Wesley Snipes as Nino Brown in the same movie: MONEY TALKS AND BULLSHIT RUNS THE MARATHONS.

Can you say Iran Contra Drugs for Arms Scandal, boys and girls? I knew that you could!!!

No matter what anyone tries to pretend: IT’S ALWAYS PERSONAL TO SOMEONE.

ALWAYS.
Ice-T as Scotty Appleton in New Jack City: “This Ain’t Business Bitch, This Personal! I want to shoot you so bad my dick is hard!!”

Businessballs 

It’s a website run by business consultant Alan Chapman. It contains shedloads of information to help with your career or college work and the best thing, it’s free. So if you want to find out about something related to business studies or management, look at Businessballs before you buy a new reference book. It actually makes learning about this stuff interesting and fun; I didn’t believe it at first either, but when you think about it the name gives it away.

This is business; not personal. 

This is business; not personal. — “THIS IS BUSINESS, NOT PERSONAL”, is perhaps the most seminal teaching; and, the most valuable lesson taken from the movie The Godfather. The rule foreshadowed the coming age where corporations would be considered as people and the lives of individuals would be over shadowed by the need for a corporation to continue unobstructed.

One aspect of this teaching is urging a warrior or a holy man (see Godfather 3) never to lose his or her objectivity when faced with facts.

Another aspect of this teaching — which is somewhat ironic — is that a “business decision” is always “personal” to someone. And, if you ever woke up in a bed beside a severed horses head; or, been machine gunned while pinned in a New Jersey toll booth; then the personal aspect of “business decisions” would be crystal clear.

This rule also come into sharp relief if you have ever been replaced by a machine or a non-union worker who will work for less money than you would.

It’s hard to believe that with a of the people who quote both Scarface and The Godfather, this sentence has not found its way into The Urban Dictionary in the year before 2023 C.E. That said I offer it here — and my offering is strictly business and not personal.
Amazon just replaced thousands of individual human employees with computer automation and scanners; but, This is business; not personal.
