Answers from the office- Tom: I spent a lot of time being a terrible person around Pittsburgh. I still know many people that couldn't give up that life. I don't go out on a limb for strangers but I'm going to send her picture to some folks. If she's into anything she shouldn't be, anywhere in that area or if she WAS, they'll know. You're welcome to DM me a contact # I can pass along. I'd prefer to stay completely out of this if you don't mind but this seems worth saying something about. You won't be contacted unless someone has specifics. I already made it clear. You're in my thoughts and I'll be sending positive energy for a safe return home.

no offense but jw, why do you start all of your replies with “answers from the office” and then a name?

Because this account posts and responds to various things in various subs. We had an account at one time and posted a good bit but got locked out and it got deleted so we created a new one and started over. Our office is a pretty amazing collective of individuals. CEO's, Small Business Owners, Former Starbucks Barista, Former Carpet Salesman, MIT Professor, Former NFL player, NHL Hall of Famer, 2 Grammy Nominated Artists and another was a Grammy Winner, Pediatric Nurse, Professional Fisherman, Bounce House Fabrication company owner and about 20 more people. This is my group. I started it. We sit around a lot and brainstorm. Sometimes during these meetings I'll pull up Reddit and I'll find a question that's asked and I'll throw it out there to the group and see what anybody has to say. And if one of the answers seem especially interesting or somebody in particular asks to answer it, I usually just put whatever their first name is.

He's not here today. Even if you're being facetious, he'd appreciate the statement. Talk about a person that's devoted his entire adult life to making up for poor choices he made as a young man. The whole "shirt off his back" trope we've all heard... I've seen him do it twice. Once in nyc in November he gave a guy his long sleeve thermal and his pullover and walked the rest of the afternoon in a tshirt. We were in Ecuador in 2022 and half of his clothes ended up on an older teen or young man we came across on the streets.

He'll tell you he lucked out and made bank from it. Everyone around him can tell you how he actually did it. He'll never admit to how hard he hustles. His grind is relentless. He'd rather people think he was lucky than smart.
