Quote:Unions = the death of American industry.
Funny how European industry is unionized up the wazoo but seems to be doing fine for the most part.
Quote:Making fun of someone trying to find work is a pretty crappy thing to do, no matter who it is you're talking to.
I know you are better than this Ringo! :yes:
250 people get fired. His response was " cool, job openings"
I was prodding him to at least go get one of these " openings".

I disagree, it matters depending on whom one is talking to.

No it doesn't. Because someone reading that thread might be in the same situation and then won't ever say anything because of fear of public humiliation.
Not to mention that if it's you in that situation one day asking for help, you don't want people remembering you as that colossal phallus-head.
It's called karma....why mess with it?

TMD messed with Karma by making light of 250 people losing their jobs by joking about an abundance of new job opportunities. I understand you sticking up for you, because you piled on his message with a "there you go!". What if a tender new reader was just laid off of their job for a similar offense? Who would they view as a phallus-head then?
250 lost their jobs. Do you have any idea what their grievance was? All we know is that they were sticking up for a co-worker who, coincidentally, was a union organizer. That should raise a red flag right there. Do you really think 250 people would be stupid enough to walk off their jobs for 90 minutes for something trivial? What might appear a cut and dried firing of people abandoning their jobs may be something completely understandable.
Please don't insult my intelligence by comparing bickering here with TMD to intimidating a new reader coming here for job search tips. He gives as good as he gets.

Uh, no....
This wasn't a situation where people lost their jobs through no fault of their own....
Don't try to make this out to be me as the bad guy.

I didn't realize you WANTED to lower yourself down to the level you accuse TMD of. Sorry about that...please continue.

How, by responding to your post? I guess we all operate at that level then.

Unless you know all the facts, you were just being a jerk who thought was being funny.

The facts are they left their posts/ duties unexcused. Thats grounds for termination. If I did the same thing at my job, I'd get fired too.

Yeah...I'm talking about you responding to my post...yeah, that's it. Exactly. :confused:

Bchbunnie has lately decided to become the Moral Authority around here. Kind of out of the blue. I suspect due to solar flares.

It's adorable when you try to get all clever and stuff. :thumbsup:

Oh - well your opinion means everything to me.

Have you been drinking? I responded to your new buddy, TMD.

And you felt the need to bring me up in a post to him. Okay....
And TMD isn't a "new" buddy...we've been message board friends for years, just like I am with ALMOST everyone on here.

You may need to modify your intake. I referenced you in a post to rollerjag. I responded to TMD when he made one of his endless ironic posts (TMD talking about hypocrisy - the humor never ends). You were not mentioned at all.
Who is following whom? You seem particularly sensitive for some one who suggested to another that they need to get tougher, that perhaps a message board was not for them.
You may want to follow your own advice. (And when was I never friendly with you? You are the one who decided to be holier than thou. It's all on you.)
