Management

IF YOU SEE A SNAKE...

Jim Barksdale of Netscape fame offers us these management nuggets:

If you see a snake, kill it.
Don’t play with dead snakes.
Don’t forget that great opporunities look like snakes at first.

From OUR ABOUT page, TUBBY...

While free speech is encouraged at Rands in Repose, there is a comments policy: “Comments are the sole responsibility of the author. We will not edit the content or attribution of any comment. However, we’ll delete whatever comment we like.” This blanket policy is necessary because there are a lot of idiots on the planet earth and occasionally some of them will find us.

This is not to suggest that we delete comments willy nilly. If you read the following comment criteria, it’s very likely you’ll never wonder why your comment was deleted:

- Comments should be on topic
- Use whatever words you like, but personal attacks on others generally aren’t tolerated

As Jerkcity is a primary traffic generator for Rands in Repose, you might be wondering WHY WE GET TENSE about such things. The answer is simple: Frequent readers will discern that content on RinR is distinctly different than Jerkcity. Translation: WE’RE DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT HERE – KNOCK KNOCK HELLO ARE YOU THERE?
