You don't really believe that, do you?

I’m about 3 weeks away from the MOVE.  I will be laughing at the JONESIES.  I calculated my breakeven as an independent…and wouldn’t you know…If I do my same production I’ll make around 22k more per year than at the wonderful, lovely place they call Jonestown. I guess the 22k was to help weedle with his salon visits.  What a rush it has been getting my office buildout complete.  Furniture will be here next week…the tech company will be here after that to hook my computers up.  I have a company in Portland Oregon working on my Logo to start MY branding.  Using quickbooks online for accounting so my accountant can download the info.  Ordered ACT 2007 and 4advisor addon to do contact management.  I purchased a phone system today.  I’m ready to hit the pavement and start building MY client base!!!

And that is all that matters, the opinions of a bunch of RR’s who will
never be EDJ clients, really isn’t important. Keep on truckin’

Nole,

I don't think you're reading everything I'm writing.  I'm not criticizing Jones for having wraps, or not having wraps.  I'm not criticizing Jones for charging transfer fees or not charging transfer fees.  If you've never worked for Jones you also have not heard the line they feed the new IR when he or she comes to work.  I am criticizing Jones for feeding everyone a line of BS about what's bad for the customer and then changing their tune without ever coming back to say, "you know what IRs, you're not as dumb as we thought you were, and you do know something about running your business and taking care of your client.  That is why we're making these changes.  We were wrong to have not changed sooner."  That's what I'm critical about.  Are these good changes? YES!  Do you think WEEdle will ever go back and admit that the IRs who have been shouting for change are the reason these changes came about?  I doubt it!  It's just a business decision as B24 said.

As far as your allegations against me.  You don't know me and if you believe you can make judgements based on a few typed words, you probably need to go back and reevaluate the way you judge people.  I judge you based on the fact that you don't work for Jones and have never worked for Jones, so you really don't know.  A while back Spaceman Spiff wanted to know why we ex-Jonesers can't just drop it.  Well it's because in any town you go to, most Jones guys still think they are better than you simply based on the fact that they work for Jones.  And if you left Jones, you probably just couldn't cut it or you did something wrong.  Sorry I steppd in you Post Toasties and I will Post no more on this subject!
