> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by ace22 \* > \*\*Actually, it really added a step to the process…several actually. He still had to eat the sandwiches. \*\* See, there’s the problem. They’re middle management. They serve to add steps to processes. Like most middle management, they work long hours for little gratification, little respect, and no pay. If this were a company, they’d be constantly worried that they’d be laid off, considered as superfluous; of course, if that were to happen, the “owners” would find they were anything but. ---

From personal experience, and I feel I am the one with the most adverse reactions from them – must be my paranoia, but then even a paranoid can be victimized by the normal human pique of others even not intended targets, yes that’s the word, they get piqued and react in piqued manner which can be quite arbitrary. MY impression, and being a postgraduate Catholic, especially being such, I don’t claim infallibility. I love them just the same, though. So, if you guys, moderators, are reading this post, don’t get piqued at me. Just give me the impression that you are doing a professional job, keep your pique out of SDMB, OK? Susma Rio Sep ---

Yeah, lets tell the moderators what to do, great idea, then we’ll put on our hobnail boots and go dancing over on that big patch of eggshells. ---

I live less than 5 miles from **three** of the damn mods. I can feel the oppression when I wake up in the morning. I blame 'em all for the shitty bridge traffic around here. That’s why I don’t like the mods. ---
