Attended also does not equal are currently attending-but apparently Ty missed that point in his cite post. Have you finished the petition for RT requesting that he hand over his Modship to Mr. 10/10/Adder?

But no one lives on our side of the street. I don't think any of that is true.

So I wouldn't read them too literally.

If you pay me for Mod services, I will offer a better test.

I hope you use a different approach with the rest of your career. When I hire, I look for people with a record of accomplishments, not people who tell me that if I pay them more than they have demonstrated that they are worth they will do a commensurately better job in the future. No offence.

Thanks. That advice is at least as helpful as the many other things you have posted here today.

you keep doing what you do. penske or me, or any boss, we could use someone who looks at what we put out on the web and deletes anything that might offend. you're too old to change, despite what penske implies. you should try to get paid for those traits you have shown to be your strengths.

If you want to be as helpful as Penske, you're going to have to try harder. No offence.

maybe when I miss the mark I'm giving you the opportunity to go into my post, edit it to hit what you think it should be, and maybe get the job offer?

I see why they call you The Ironman. It's because you're exhausting, overly commercial, and in the grand scheme of things utterly without a point.
