Please let me know when you'd like to schedule the first interview. Late night/early morning works best for my schedule. Looking forward to it. Come prepared.

Which is one of the qualifying traits along with enjoying the power trip that comes with the corner office. Since we jettisoned SL&P the need for moderators has dropped by 83.65%. We receive very few reported posts, in fact weeks go by between them, there just isn't much modin' and adminin' to do around here so no one has been pushing to add some more help. Plus most members prefer less, not more, moderating. Tray, in five years you have won the day twice for having the most liked content. Including this past November. Why not focus on winning the day more often? Honestly great posters are the biggest asset to this place. Being a mod is really overrated. All you can do is occasionally delete a post or use the luxury suite at the park while hanging out with JR and the rest of the front office. Yeah, the players parties are fun at first, but eventually listening to Anderson talk about his Field of Dreams walk off for the tenth time gets boring. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were actually looking for a serious answer, there is no process. If we think we need them, we talk amongst ourselves and throw out some names. We haven't needed any for years now. I am once again sorry your feelings were hurt here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on this reply, I really don’t think this arrangement is going to work out. Not sure you’ll fit our “corporate culture” so to speak. But I was really looking forward to our interview. Please let us know if you’d like to re-consider your stance. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 The move suggested by this thread might be upsetting to that Astro fan who was posting here during that playoff series, just in case he returns. I know that we all want to be as inclusive as possible here at Soxtalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
