A nice story for the folks at SJ.com

I'm heading over to plaindealer.com to be all earnest and eager. Wish me luck.

 

Congratulations and best of luck Simon.

 

The evaluation! Don't forget the evaluation!

And while I don't know the Simon story, congrats to anyone getting a job in this racket nowadays ....

 

Thanks for sharing a great story.

And for the science fiction geeks here, "Zathras cannot have nice stories."

 

Congrats, Simon, and congrats, SF, for picking up a pretty good journalist.

 

Congratulations, Simon!

Thanks for posting, SF. This does make me feel proud. I remember when Simon and another former member went off to college.

 

Fantastic to hear this. Congrats, Simon.

 

Congrats to Simon, and congrats to Simon's new employer because obviously they are making this hire to help themselves.

 

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I've been really surprised by this community and how great it can be.

I'm excited to get to work and to tackle the challenges that come along with the job.

 

Fantastic news, Simon. And congrats to SF and those who do the hiring, for bringing aboard a bright young mind.

Beyond being thrilled for both, when I read this I thought about those who post racist or sexist or homophobic or just plain ugly and mean rants here, and how they might wonder why they can't get ahead in this business or why nobody offers them jobs. And then I wondered if they'll be able to see how what goes around for a young, inexperienced "kid" like Simon compares to what goes around for them.
