Whatever happened to praising all the good things that the magazine has to
offer. I have been in many jobs, that no one wants where the people are
doing a lot of good. No one ever bothers to say "nice job" but let something
not please them once, you will be the first one they call. No wonder we
can't find good people for these jobs anymore. We all need to think of how
we would feel if this kind of behavior is aimed at us!!!!!!

Not to beat them up too much, but the picture on the cover was in a
Soaring calendar a few years back. How about some new stuff?

I just received my Feb 2005 issue of 'SOARING' today
and noticed a new word I'll have to add to my vocabulary.

It can be found on page 22, in the caption next to
the photo of the 2-33. The caption reads,

'The author's buyfriend at moment of touchdown.'

How right that word can be, for either a 'boyfriend'
or a husband.

I also noticed the M&H ad seems a bit dated. But then
again, Ground Hog day is tomorrow, so maybe it is appropriate.

Comment:
As a group, you guys are a bunch of snots!
I pretty can't take the "Let's take our shots this week" mentality.
It is true that there are some errors in Soaring magazine- occasionally
even a couple real clangers, by by and large, I think it is greatly
improved and enjoy it.
I suspect you have no idea how hurtful some of these comments are. If
you do, more the shame.
An important employee of SSA resigned this week, in part because of
this kind of nastiness and the abuse received over the phone from some
members.
I'd be interested in how many of you do jobs that are reviewed by 12000
critics.
