Jair Domínguez reveals the reproach that Jordi Évole made to him when he was his boss
The comedian has explained that his work philosophy is based on the theory of minimum effort.
BarcelonaJair Domínguez has been working in television for years, as a scriptwriter and presenter. During his professional career, he has experienced all kinds of situations and, as he has confessed, he has been working for years following the law of least effort. In a recent conversation with Joel Díaz in the section of theAPM? Television is culture, Domínguez acknowledged that his work philosophy, which the interviewer admits he admires, has brought him "problems and arguments" with his bosses. Asked by Díaz about which of the bosses had caught his attention for their way of working, Domínguez pretends not to want to name names until, finally, he mentions one. "I can't name names. I can't name names... Jordi Évole, for example," he reveals, without losing his sense of humour. To exemplify the problems he had with his then boss, Domínguez recalls an anecdote from when he worked on Buenafuente's programme on Antena 3, and Évole was the script coordinator.
Following the law of least effort, one day Domínguez left the newsroom when he had already done his work. It was then that Évole, angry, called him and asked him: "Why aren't you in front of the computer?" Domínguez replied: "Because I've already finished my work." Évole told him that he should go back "because this [work] is like a family." After that anecdote, Díaz asks Domínguez if he likes working in a team. "Yes, if I can choose it. But that has never happened," says the current presenter of the show.It's happening.
After recalling his small confrontation with Évole, Domínguez also recalls the role he had as a lyricist for Dance the Chiki-Chiki, the song that emerged from the El Terrat factory and that represented Spain in Eurovision in 2008. The comedian reveals that one of his verses is "Chiki Chiki is really cool, they dance it in China, also in Alcorcón".
During the conversation with Díaz, Domínguez admits that the various complaints he has received from far-right parties have ended up undermining "the desire to piss people off": "It's crap, you have to be young, brave and have energy, and I'm getting more and more tired."
