I hear Andy Mack has taken up the job of programmer for The Wolf some drunk on the Q is programmer and Oldies is running well-done these days... Doug is now the opperation manager there.... But why would a company fire someone who did it all???? Are the two newbies only getting paid half what Heath was???
Still I know what Heath made and he could claim it on his taxes as a donation of time! And don't forget they had to factor in half for Weldon... This rate they are spending more money then with just Heath. Thats why I stand by my first statement that this is personel!!! And again, "you better let the ones go who may one day let you go"
