Why should it matter? We still expect members to have some maturity when responding to topics.

Who has been immature? If I am talking about jobs from your state being relocated and I use the decription "Whoosh-sucking" sound, you consider that mature? And what could be more vitriolic than that? Gee no bias there whatsoever!

They miss it here. It's classic psychology. "Thou doth protest too much."

I have heard that Met Life is a wonderful company to work for. They are known for not applying double standards, and I have heard that their higher ups never go on capricious power trips where they censure their employees without cause. What a company!

My cousin heard the Warwick Mayor in talk radio today (don't know the station) and was misinformed. He quoted the incorrect number of jobs (243, not 600) and said they were all IT jobs moving to NC. The majority of the Warwick jobs are life insurance servicing related, not IT.

So have you decided what you will do yet? Are you willing to move?
