    If what bullet said IS true, that guy losing his job is the LEAST he deserves.

    You're a punk, and all you did was personally attack another.
    You don't want to go there with me, seriously.
    Of all people, you need to just STFU now.
    The reason you can count on one hand (finger?) the number of 1HPers who will speak with you has nothing to do with the past four months and everything to do with how you treated them the previous 15 years.
    How many people showed up at your "god, he's been here so long I guess we have to do something" going away party? Five? Think about who was there...then think about all the others who weren't.

    Seriously, dude...do you want to get into all that on this board?
    I'm trying to restrain myself, but I'm about to unleash on your ass if you don't just go away now.
    Rejoicing when a guy loses his job? F-ing pathetic.
    For all that jock-sniffing you did on University Drive, you didn't learn shit about the sanctity of the workplace or how to be a team player.
    Good journalism? Oh good God.

    Well, this got ugly fast.
     
  4. What are you talking about? It made it 12 pages.
    I'm surprised it was civil this long.

    Well, you answered a lot in your post. I've said on here many times that no one should take things posted on a message board as gospel. He stated his case. Others backed him up. Others have bashed him, such as yourself. That's the way it works. Doesn't sound like he's too anonymous either.

    Also, I am pretty sure, as omniscient as Moddy is, that he is unaware of what someone intends to post when they register.

    I could be wrong, of course.

    Talked to a friend at The Herald, said Bullet's story is 100 percent true and is common knowledge at the paper.

    If everyone followed that idea, we'd all be out of jobs.

    I'm down to one course - and then that skill will be part of my repetoire
