Title: Nukeworker.com
Post by: retread on Apr 11, 2010, 10:05
In the last five weeks I've been a member of "nukeworker.com" I've been amazed at the efforts of Mike Rennhack.  We are able to communicate with our peers.  I was able to contact someone I worked with in the early 80's.  We have some awesome forums (especially for gold members!), job postings, study material and God knows what else.
Mike is constantly on the forums and doesn't ask for anything to help support the site.  I tried starting a topic pumping up the gold member numbers.  Alas, I was very new at the time and didn't know my fellow nukeworkers, don't think I did a very good job.  I think, at the very least, we gold members should give +K every time we read Mike's posts. I know his ego would appreciate it. :P Maybe a few of our members would consider a gold membership.  How Mike has rendered this site with all its advantages is beyond me.  I only thank him for his efforts!  Anyway, I just hope that those who read this will help support this great, job giving site!

I would love some karma.  Maybe I could get a few more karma points than BeerCourt.  That would make me smile.

I Don't usually agree with MeterSwangin, but lately I've had to agree with him several times.  I guess that means some karma is coming his way.  (Too bad there isn't some kind of log to prove it).

Mutant:  That was a little too mean.  You are what they call here, an "Unforgiving Nukeworker" (http://www.nukeworker.com/forum/index.php/topic,14958.0.html).

Sorry - an honest mistake.  Sycophant popped up as the word-of-the-day and I thought I would share it.  I just put it in the wrong thread - I thought I was in the popular  thread "cool words to impress people with"

Yeah. Stick to that story.

If Mike were a boss of mine, I could understand the comment.  Wouldn't care for it worth a damn, but could understand it.  I see the work involved with this site and would like those who put it together, to know it's appreciated.  I also know, from personal experience, how expensive it is to keep a website up and running.  It seems that if meterswinging thinks you went too far, you probably went too far.  Have a great day and know God loves you!

Basing the validity of someone's posts on the view from a second party whose avatar is a nearly naked oiled up muscular guy.... is a slippery standard indeed!  :P
