-- Good example:
I think that going to the grocery story for kleenex isn't really in our best interest. What we really need is contacts with the local high cheerleaders. They're totally better for us than just talking to some random grocery store clerks. So,
go the local high school and meet some cheerleaders. Try telling them that we know people in the industry who can help them. Or invite them to parties. Or compliment them on their tumbling and ask to learn.
Do not go to the grocery store.

Similarly, if you want to vote for or against an action, just quote it and bold your vote. Please don't make me go digging through entire paragraphs to find out what you want to do.
I do
read everything, but I have people complaining that they don't feel like I'm tallying votes well, and honestly it's sometimes really difficult sorting through pages and pages of "other stuff."

Gee, I don't know about that. On one hand I really like cheerleaders, but I also like grocery stores. Why, I once had a girlfriend who was a cheerleader and we used to go grocery shopping together. Did you know that most people don't listen to announcements of the PA at grocery stores? If you pay attention, pretty regularly they'll make an announcement for loss prevention to go to some aisle. Whenever I hear that I always think 'wow! Somebody's totally stealing stuff, maybe i should go check it out to see how LP handles that!' Though I actually did once and didn't see anyone in the aisle. Anyway, so yeah, I'm going to have to give a yes vote to going to the grocery store. Actually, now that I think about it, since I didn't see anyone on that aisle I wonder if that meant that the people stealing stuff heard the announcement and left? If so, that would sort of tend to contradict my earlier assertion that people don't listen to PA announcements. Or maybe LP just got their before I did? I wonder if the people stealing stuff were cheerleaders. Yeah, definitely have to give no vote for going and talking to cheerleaders. Not that I don't like cheerleaders. Sure I do, but if they're stealing things from grocery stories that's seriously not cool and we should totally not be involved with that. We'll benefit a lot more from just getting some kleenex than we will from having contacts who steal things from grocery stores.Thank you.
