  1. That move may save them money this year, and the other workers will pick up the slack for the short term. In the end though, workers get tired of over working and they leave. Then you have high turnover in a position, because everyone will eventually feel that way. American workers are the peak of effeciency and work more hours (per week) than anyone in the world. We also have less vacation than any industrialized nation. So your claim that just joining entities together, having one of the staff cover both of them and lay off the rest -- is -- well -- silly. It is how my company handled the last downturn and it worked out well for one year. Then we lost 20% of our staff when they went and got more satisfying jobs elsewhere. Then we hired a slew of temp-quality workers (because, after all management always minimizes the skills required for a job) and our quality is atrocious now. I mean HORRIBLE. Our schedules have slipped and now the company is talking about losing money on the missed schedules and cost of supporting low quality. Just because it takes 9 months to have a baby, doesn't mean you can have 9 people on it and get a baby in 1 month. Management and administrators get lost in the numbers and forget the rest. It is amazing.
  2. He is a "co" offense coordinator? DD is efficiently working his way down the pay scale. His next stop is a RB coach. Then GA.
  3. What is it with our AD and their inability to stick to scheduled times? Thanks for the info though.
  4. Our President wanted MCCarney. Our AD wanted Canales. Let's be sure to give the proper (errr) props.
  5. I don't see how UNT being Denton's (by far) the largest employer can ever be considered a free loader. UNT has its own police force and medical facility. It would require the city's fire department, but when is the last time that was needed? It is really that big of a drag? They pay a water bill, trash bill and energy bill. I don't *get* the freeloader term. </scatter_shootin>
  6. Welcome to acadamia. The fine students who ran the research labs at UTSW and discovered Statins didn't see dime. NOT FAIR.
  7. Rape jokes are awesome.
  8. John Jones makes 261k base a year. That is more than Dodge made. He is (now) the second highest paid coach on campus. http://www.texastribune.org/library/data/government-employee-salaries/university-of-north-texas/john-h-jones/834741/

  10. Good job man. Welcome aboard (again).
  11. Apology accepted. But let's not waste the paper, ink, money and fuel to mail out a written apology. After all, we MEAN GREEN at UNT. Within the past week I got a 'corrected donation' receipt for 2010, someone else's xmas card, another copy of the same 2010 'correct donation' receipt and then an email saying they didn't have my down payment on the club level seats on file and they needed to reprocess it. I think the AD went on early holidy this year
  12. Got signed by Detriot -- then cut.
  13. They are on the Club Level.
  14. Not many. Only the heads of the department or those that do a TON of fundraising, which isn't the slacker type that your are casting.
  15. Bump. Use the ULM's site to get a stream of the game. It is a good option for $9. ..well, unless the MTSU students are doing this broadcast too.
  16. Agree. You always take the points. You don't go out of your way to not score points, that is just stupid, not smart football. Non-classy move is to go excessive on points, which isn't this case.
  17. I don't know if that is classy. Why is it classy? Not scoring with you should is classy? Did they go for it on 4th down to run up the score? What am I missing?
  18. Not on topic, but Tune was dressed up in uniform last game.
  19. Co-op in last year of college. Met mentors in said co-op. Got a job from those mentors giving me leads.
  20. I am not being snarky, I am being serious. If they showed up with a trailer to sell wings at Fouts II, I wouldn't buy unless they showed they have supported the University, instead of just trying to profit off the captive audience. I can make my own wings while tailgating.
  21. You need a question on there if we think it is a good idea for the Denton BWW to not have UNT branding inside.
  22. I checked there -- I can't read Russian. It was a dead end.
  23. Is it really at 6, or is the AD screwing it up again? I was told to check here, since we know better than trust meangreensports.com.
