There's a big difference between having a private meal with someone and "bringing someone in" where most of the staff knows. This could be more private than most hires since there is the possibility of poaching someone from a competitor's staff.

 

I haven't been seeing names mentioned here. Just papers. And isn't it obvious candidates would come from the nearby papers?

 

In this market, absolutely.

 

Fictitious names are for cowards. And didn't FDR once say "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself?"

 

Franklin Delano Romanowski?

No.

 

Uh, no, they're not. Not always, and not only. God, I hate that cliched argument.

And, if someone posted under a real name, how would you necessarily know, with certainty, that it was their own actual name, anyway?

 

Real people don't usually use fictitious names because they have nothing to hide. Cowards, usually, have something to hide. And if someone posts under his or her real name and aren't truthful about it, *cough athletes who say someone hacked his Twitter account after posting trash talk cough*, then he or she is no better than the anonymous readers who criticizes them.

 

You make very good points, Mr. Moderator.

 

Play, this is about as unofficial as it gets but I've been told something could happen by Christmas.

 

Good luck, Drip

 

Anyone heard whether they've started interviewing candidates? Brought anyone in?
