Do I Really Want to Know? Do I Really CARE?
Sounds like a song from the 70's, doesn't it?! (Colour My World) I guess I'm dating myself, aren't I? Anyway, I digress...
Staying away from controaversial posts--mostly political--has been my personal 'policy' since starting here in the Rain. Our dear Jennifer Monroe sets the record straight about members who use this platform as a policical one or even just a place to rant! And, hey, it's okay to 'rant' but, being rude to other members while doing so, does absolutely NOTHING to put you in a positive light with other members OR the public!
Don't forget that the public can see what we write here and believe me, you're being watched...and your'e being judged. Think about what you're saying and how you're coming across before you put your fingers to the keyboard!
Your comments are a reflection of you, me and our entire community! Thanks, Jennifer--we needed a lesson in zipping it and you put it SO well!
… That you spend hours and hours of every day posting and commenting on political and social posts that have no potential for advancing my home buying or selling endeavor?
… That you are sarcastic, contentious, an extremist, a know-it-all or just downright hateful? Because when I read your posts and comments to others on this forum, I am truly appalled.
… That you are not really the professional that you hold yourself up to be? Instead, you spend your day more focused upon shoving your ego into overdrive the moment a new controversy arises?
… That you will treat the potential buyer, seller, agent, or inspector of my property with total disdain and prejudice if she is gay, muslim, a republican, or fat?
The more I think about, the more I DO want to know these things about you. Before it’s too late!
I am your client, your referral source, your colleague and everyone who is looking for a Real Estate Professional. I happened upon your link while searching the internet to learn more about YOU. What I found is that you are simply one among a parade of losers who deplete the productive hours of your day in a worthless discussion about religion, politics and rag magazine banter.
I don’t mind if you engage in a healthy debate now and again, but I plan to run, not walk to the next professional who presents themselves in the manner to which I’d like to be represented. Fortunately, you have plenty of competition. Their quality posts and congenial commentary here have really impressed me.
Think about that when you next log on.
