RIP Joe McKnight

Didn't you go on to add that there was no significant pressure at all in a newsroom?

 

Yes. There is not.

 

Repeatedly missing deadlines is a specific performance issue for which you can be disciplined and/or fired, even in Guild shops.

In fact, in Guild shops it's usually one of the very few specific actions which, if documented, can put you in firing jeopardy pretty quick.

 

That's not pressure. That's being bad at your job.

 

Shooting unarmed people who are giving up is also being bad at your job.

 

Yes. What's your point, Dewey?

 

Even a dimwit like you should get the point, Foley.

 

Just to be clear, that point drew many of the arguments that you seem to think were in opposition to your comparison. It is a far more subjective point, one that depends on how you define significant.

 

Significant, as in a lot.

 

I'm glad you cleared that up. Thanks.

 

And that is still every bit as subjective as the first time you used the word. So to quote Snark, I'm glad you cleared that up. Thanks.

 

At least we can all agree that being the head coach of an NFL team is more pressure-packed than being a copper.
