I should be drinking to celebrate... not escape!! almost a waste of the good stuff.. but I gotta do it. just don't call me til at least noon! lol

I think the tbtimes did it... that was a backhanded move by Manley... I imagine it brought on alot of pressure....

Samm-Thanks for all your hard work with this story. I wish there would have been a happy ending. Oh well. If I sound defeated it's because I am. I fear what this could turn into for everyone involved in this industry. Not just the jocks.

Hey JV
As a leader, it's your job to keep everyone in the guild informed. You have an obligation to reach out and pass along info throughout all the jocks rooms. You should have made it clear to all involved that it is their duty to make sure they understand their options. Most didn't have a clue what was going on. It was up to you to make sure they did. You failed them. You might say you tried but leaders aren't elected to just try. That's just an excuse. Why am I wasting my time. Nobodys listening.

a shame the guild didn't make it public that they had withdrawn the offer. somehow i don't see them having a christmas party this year.

we don't want you any more...
oh but now i want to sign, and announced it...
oh, then i guess you're hired after all.

a marriage made in hell, the devil performing the ceremony....

hip hip, hooray. how long has the guild been around? more importantly, how much longer will they BE around?




hey, who knows. now that our expectations have dipped so low, they can't help but meet them!!
