Caroline - someone's got it in for you.

Sometimes an OP is RR'd as the thread has turned contentious. Nothing like that has happened here, nor was the OP (from what I can recall) controversial.

GR Support, if they are doing their job, will reinstate and give the contentious RRer a telling off.

Perhaps we should all change our board names to yours, and 'borrow' your avatar?
"I am Spartacus" :-D

That would be funny Detective.....might be worth a go :-D :-D :-D

Supercrutch no idea why this is happening if the person involved would like to have an adult conversation about this they can message me or do it in the open on the boards....I seriously have no idea.......

Genes will I fear just delete it.

This is the OP

"A Businessman On Perfection…

The closest a person ever comes to perfection is when he fills out a job application form.

Businessman Stanley Randall"

Caroline - yes! Job application being a true & accurate reflection of the applicant, allegedly!

Wow, not another one!!! What on Earth is wrong with admin for removing that post??

Maybe the RR'er thought businessMAN was sexist?! ;-)

Oh never thought of that...well it came from Readers Digest and they're well known for being controversial at the best of times :-D

This happened to me a few years ago, constant reporting.

GR actually did something about it and warned the malicious poster that their continual RRing would not be tolerated if they wished to remain a member.

Keep complaining ;-)

It's about time they did it again.

Thanks Supercrutch

It's not so much annoying as just childish as I've done nothing to warrant this...unless I'm REALLY thick and totally missing the point. Yes I "argue" with a few on here but as adults it should be fine.......should be.........oh well :-D

As an exercise in pure fiction there is little better than a job description. If it should mention the remuneration then take that as being as reliable as Momte Carlo.
