It looks like a Rust paper. I've worked for Rust before.

 

well illinois sportsscribe is this a place to stay away from?

 

It's the ice cream capital of the world. How could you say no?

Well, I could say no since the pay is too low for me to make the move. It's a shame, though, since I have family all over the area.

 

I never had a problem with Rust. They always gave us the resources we needed at my former location. They would basically okay a blank check, but the publisher would be the one that took the budget apart. I would problem not be the best person to answer this question simply because it's a different situation. I don't know what it's like to work there. That begins said, I don't have anything bad to say...besides...when I left they paid me for 24 paid holidays that I was owed.

 

co-editor?
