Ughh ... I'm too tired. Have at it.

 

For those who set their regular oil change by when this position comes open, your time has come!

 

Dagblastit, I only wish this job had come open when I was looking.

 

I need to tone this monitor. I don't see the screaming blue above.

 

Blue is for idiots who don't know how to do sarcasm.

If you have to use blue (and several people on here do) then you don't know how to do sarcasm.

 

Can somebody explain why there always seems to be a job open here? Is it management? is the paper crummy?

 

Yes.

 

The paper sucks, the management sucks, the town sucks and I'm sure the pay still sucks. But other than that it's great.

 

Is Buck still the SE there?

 

According to the site, yes.

Ha! Point made. I skipped the first post (seen it too many times on here) and went straight for snark.
