[CAUT] apology (was Re: U. of Northern Iowa position)

[tannertuner]

And, this is why the CAUT employment situation will never change for the better. It's not a chip. It is identification of the problems we need to fix. But, leave us alone. We like our lives the way they are. And that's why these job openings come open and nobody with skills wants them.

Jeff, with all due respect, man, as several have indicated, you do seem to have a chip on your shoulder, and it comes across loud and clear.You can make excuses 'til the cows come home, but you're barking up the wrong tree with your criticism. Take a hint and back off on this rant. It's not appreciated.
