I can see Matt using that excuse after he interviews me but by judging me he wouldn't know what would be best for me. Atleast Fike looks into hiring me if Foods release me. Overall I will be happy , If I do work at Cedar Point even if it is foods.

P.S. Natalie you make a remark in general that the boards are getting ugly and remarks on people , thus why are you making remarks to me in a stupid manner. As in you're not good enough to work Area One Rides.Chris made a suggestion an you go cutting him off please lets all stop it. I just had a question as to the working matter.

In conclusion:
Grammar is good.
Proper spelling is nice.
Good punctuation is dandy.
Random capitalization is BAD! BAD BAD!

Just kiddning y'all, that was a joke, just like the one Natalie posted towards me. The only difference I see between the areas is that Area One gets to eat in the cafe while Area Two (save Corkscrew) must eat at Stockade. Snoogins.

I love the cattiness in here because it reminds me of my "salad days" at the park. Natalie, I must agree with you again. Fortunately, I have room to talk in this instance because my posts are consistently the most entertaining. I hold all grammar in a fastidiously high regard. I love having an ego; my new-found character traits are always fun until the luster wears off. Greg, I can tell you exactly what happened. Imagine Cedar Point as a system roughly tantamount to Stalin's communist Russia. Imagine what would have happened to you if Stalin caught wind of your opinionated tirade had you been living in Russia. Now relate this to Cedar Point. You must have certainly come across as either vibrant or eager to work at the park, which is considered abnormal. Cedar Point shuns abnormality as well as people capable of mustering enough gray matter to countervail their wishy-washy, 1950s, good vibes mentality. Perhaps they thought of you as a potential "squeaky wheel." Keeping up with the theme, Cedar Point cannot kill you, but they certainly can deny you your desired area of employment. They simply answered a question too loaded to put on cheap, crappy, mass-produced bracelets (although I can think of some people who hold alarming allegiance to this maxim)--What would Stalin do? Let the countdown to deletion begin...
Deletions only happen when you start naming people who can't defend themselves in the forum (i.e., full-timers or people who don't know this site even exists).

I agree with you too. You never caused a problem. I am not sure I follow the rest of your post, but I can assure you that not being a problem is part of being perfect for Cedar Point. I was never part of the problem either; in fact, I was a management favorite. Some people fail to realize that a sardonic sense of humor up at the point is almost as appreciable as a cut back. If anything, I got bored of all the glad-handing, schmoozing and make-work that dovetailed "friendships" at Cedar Point. I had my rose-colored glasses torn from my face, snapped in half and thrown to the ground, immediately improving my vision. I STILL got the promotion too. How about 'dem apples?
As for Jeff--do I really care what he thinks about me? No. My first amendment rights indicate I can say whatever I want and people can say whatever they want to in response to what I say. If he runs the website, he can delete whatever I write and, frankly, it isn't a big deal. Making tongue in cheek references to the tacky subject matter I present should not be taken literally. I am here to entertain, not disperse sunshine and rainbows in the hearts of my wretched Cedar Point ilk. I am an entertainer, not a politically correct thug.

Hey... say whatever you want, I honestly don't care. Nor do I care how entertaining or clever you think you are. The First Amendment doesn't apply here in JP Land, and I won't propagate any kind of attacks toward people who can't respond. That's just outright lame, and frankly I doubt that any more than two or three of the thousand people who stop by here every day care about what axe you have to grind with silver tags.

Clearly we agree. Did you even read my post? I would like to know what ran through your mind when you read "if he runs the website, he can delete whatever he wants and, frankly, it isn't a big deal." Perhaps you don't understand that when I say this is your website and you can run it how you see fit, I mean that this is your website and you can run it however you see fit. I hope you understand that what I think is that this is indeed your website and I could care less how you run it because, after all, it is your prerogative, not mine. In moments of pique, I am known to make small jokes. If I had any serious qualms about this site, would I be here?
And yes, I do think I am clever. If you see anymore personal attacks on anyone after you told me not to, then you can say something. In the meantime, your spurious response accurately reflects the inept arrogance with which the claims in my post were read. I am not sure I understand your remark about entertainment. Simply put, entertainment is "the act of entertaining; agreeable occupation for the mind; diversion; amusement." (Webster's Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary) This definition does not account for audience, nor does it clarify your mention of grinding axes with silver tags, which to the best of my knowledge, was not done.
If I was that upset about being deleted, which you seem to think I am, then I probably wouldn't laugh everytime it happened. I might do something more hot-headed, like write a testy response. (I hope you don't think this is testy because it isn't meant to be.)
No hard feelings and warm regards,
Vitaminized

No harm no foul, I just wonder why you'd bring up anything about the First Amendment, thus my response.
By the way, did you go to the Dennis Miller School of Monday Night Football? If that English degree of mine did nothing else, it at least prepared me for "clever" English, and probably the definition of "entertainment." I think you try too hard to be cute, and therefore no one knows what the hell you're talking about, thus entertaining yourself, but not having any measurable impact on people in general.
One of my English/journalism professors once said something to me that I will never forget. "Cute isn't the same as clever." Wouldn't you know it, one of my radio program directors told me the same thing not a week later. I now pass that advice on to you...
