I started this thread so that EDJ Newbies could get an idea of what it's like out in the field. Not so that Windy or Still@Jones could highjack it every flipping chance they get. Noone should have to weed through 20 pages of crap for the 3 pages of useful information.

[quote=Ron 14]Windy had his front teeth removed at the request of his RL. He looks like a stroke, but he got more assets for it.

Hooked on Phonics teaches you to pronounce, assface. Go be dead like you’re supposed to be.

I don’t door knock, dipsh*t.

Things are funny when people crack jokes, because most of the time they are true to some degree or at least they believe its true. Your jokes are total nonsense. They make no sense and none of them are ever remotely funny. Are you sure you aren’t 3?



You’re the awkward guy in school, that comes up and to make yourself look cool you try and crack a joke like, “Ha Ha you have a straw in your coke and it bent. Straws are for losers, you loser”. Then you wipe you nose with your sleeve and snort. Everyone turns and looks at you in an awkward silence and thinks to themselves, “Who the f*** is this guy and what is he talking about”. Then when you leave, everyone flings boogers at you.



Yup, that was definitely you.

Level 3 bonus this go around. Hardly a failure in this economy bud.

Hmmmm. Whatever a “Level 3” bonus is.   What happened to bonus brackets? They do away with those? Is this another way to screw the broker?



And the only reason you guys have a decent bonus is because of Wind/Ronnie just slammin’ it!



Also, what I meant was “being at Jones” and “failure” are synonymous. And I winked.



And why are you guys so defensive? It seems like you guys are on a continuum of defensiveness, with B24 on one end (least defensive or not defensive at all) and Wind on the other (more defensive).

Defensive?  I think there is a difference between dispelling half-truths & lies and being defensive.  You know better than most many people here post with an agenda, I think you’d be better to call them out.  I hardly ever seen Jones guys running around bragging about our firm … most of the time it’s some guy bashing us.

As for bonus levels, I think it’s the same as brackets but could care less.  I’m not getting one. Plus, after I heard some office tools in St. Louis talking about getting one it left a bad taste in my mouth.  Glad we are profitable though, more the BOA/ML brokers can say

Hey I call out the wire guys too.



“I grossed $30,000 this month” and “Level 3 bonus bud” are pretty defensive posts.



Informational, yes. But also defensive. I really could care less. Point is, I tried to make a joke. Some people take it as a joke. Others not so much. Now, it may not have been funny, which is fine. But it wasn’t a real attack.



A real attack would be, “Why is it that Jones hires shoeshiners and retail checkout baggers?” or “Why is that every time Edward Jones is in the news, it’s because either a) some crook regional leader was stealing money from his clients or b) the firm is going through another lawsuit?”.



But those are easy to defend (or deflect).



Anyway, it seems like Wind and fa09 and a few other people are pretty defensive. You, B24, Sometimes, HKA, not as much. Spiff may be defensive, but I think it really is just that he just BELIEVES so much. His arguments are usually very well thought out, and I like to think we have some pretty good debates.



On the other hand, guys like shoeshine are completely fair game. I’ll be relentless in destroying him.



Which, just so you guys know - he’s a homo.

I’m defensive because A-holes on this site call me a liar and turn my comments into a bash windy post. I’d say thats warranted.
