[quote=skolbrother]FREE while I am happy for you that you left Ed Jones, you are ignorant. I hope this does not turn into a gay bashing thread. I am not homosexual but to berate those that are IMO is like making fun of someone's race. Congratulations to you and your clients on the move. BTW I absolutely love strip joints and gambling so I was not the ideal EJ guy.[/quote]

Skull

apppreciate your comments but the way I read it is that Jones is discriminating against peoples life styles. Folks that aren't married can't enjoy the benefits that the married ones can, hell I recall when Bachman was sporting his assistant. They have double standards, just another reason why they are so hated by former EMPLOYEES.

You can rip on me but the language used in that post is inflammatory. Period.

So instead of Jones-bashing we start gay-bashing?

I understand the message behind it, but talk about getting up on your soapbox...

Just want to point out I only praised him for the "free at last"
comment.  I’m not one to bash, whether or not I agree with his,
uh, underlying values (I’m sure I saw them in their someplace)?

I agree BrokerRecruit.

At the risk of sounding liberal...Free, most kids don't notice stuff like that. At least MY kids don't. Kids look at things like, Why is that man in the wheelchair? Why is that lady fat? Why does that boy's hair look weird and he has all those earrings? Why is that little girl throwing a fit?

While I agree with your sentiment about mixed values - I don't agree with your point of view.

It seems to me the best person for YOU to contact might be Jerry Springer.

Do Rosie or Ellen still have a show? 

 I think Ellen does..she's funny.

Muny....let's hit Jerry together! I'll start a fight, you throw some chairs!

I'll throw you some "Springer Beads" if you.... oh wait, that'll get us in trouble- HEY that's what started this thread in the first place!

 Hey FREE,

how would Jones treat a transvestite?

I DIDN`T KNOW I WOULD HIT SO MANY SORE SPOTS ON THIS SUBJECT. MY POINT WAS I DON`T CARE WHAT YOU DO OR HOW YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE.  LIVE YOUR LIFE AS YOU WANT. DON`T PUSH IT IN SOME ONES FACE AND DON`T TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE. JONES WAS ALWAYS GOOD AT TELLING US HOW TO ACT WHAT TO SAY, WHEN TO SAY IT. AND YOU ARE ALWAYS BEING WATCHED BY BIG BROTHER. JUST LOOK AT WHEN YOU WERE AT ST. LOUIS. THEY KNOW WHEN YOU COME INTO YOUR ROOM AND WHEN YOU LEAVE WHO YOU CALLED , WHAT YOU WATCHED ETC.   OH AND NEXT TIME I`LL MAKE SURE I`M MORE POLITICALLY CORRECT. I`LL REFER TO THEM AS HOMOSEXUALS AND OR ALTERNATIVE LIFE STYLE  PEOPLE. BUT IN THE BIBLE BELT WE STILL CALL THEM QUEERS.

Do you honestly expect us to believe that they monitor when you enter and leave your hotel room, much less your phone records or your TV watching habits?

HELL YES!!!!!!!!

YES I DO. ASK THE GP THAT TOLD US A STORY AT A BAR ONE NIGHT AFTER CLASS. THAT THEY FIRED A NEWBIE FOR CALLING UP A CALL GIRL  TO HIS ROOM. THEY LOOKED AT THE TIME  OF THE KEY CARDS WHEN HE WAS GOING IN AND OUT OF HIS ROOM. NOTICED HE HAD COMPANY ON SURVELANCE CAMERA , LOOKED AT THE OUT GOING CALLS ON THE ROOM PHONE .  IT WAS TO AN ESCORT SERVICE . HE WAS LATER REMOVED FORM THE CLASS AND SENT HOME . THERE WAS MORE TO THE STORY I`M SURE BUT THAT WAS THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS YES THEY DO WATCH EVERY THING YOU DO. ANOTHER IR WAS SPOTTED GOING INTO A STRIP CLUB HAPPENED TO HAVE A EJ SHIRT ON HE WAS FIRED TOO.

Free

take your cap locks off...and stop making fun of people

ACTUALLY, There is SOME truth to these stories and NOT.

These are known as Jones Urban Tales. They are stories that are told by GP's for the PURPOSE of :

a) Demonstrating a Lesson;

b) Giving an example of cause and effect;

c) a way to control the masses.

The stories have a BASIS of truth, but are retold by the General Partners in a way that indicates they are 'taking you into their confidence' and want you to know what can happen if you... etc, blah blah blah.

But as I have said before and others before me. They absolutely DO keep a very accurate record of each persons' comings and goings'.
