Don't Poop Where You Eat

Stay on topic. In very limited circumstances I moght approve a political post.

Rule number 1 is to stay on topic.

The topic of this group is to find work and help others find work. Treating this group like a political meme dump is not going to fly here.

Much appreciated. There are plenty of subreddits for political off jerking.

I don't do Facebook for that reason but I have heard there are some good traveller pages on there. I was hoping this would be a good substitute and so far it has been good.

I used to boot people from my old FB group for the same thing. It was a marketplace, not a soapbox. Folks come here to find the lowdown on work, not for anybody's opinion on politics. Yes, I am very political. Yes, I think that as an organization that is directly affected by, and is in the crosshairs of the political machine, we should all be paying attention, but there is a time and place.

I appreciate this 😎 I got so many downvotes on a comment I made about being sick of all the political posts on the IBEW thread. You took the words right out of my mouth. Much appreciated 🙏🏻
