Positions of authority and being a \"good example\" (improved)
 

I see so many people claim positions of authority need to lead by example. I've seen people like this effect jobs from the President of the United States all the way down to the insignificant job of internet forum modding. Some people think that a person in authority should be fired if he isn't a good example no matter how good of a job he does.

What do you think? Say a person is perfect at his job but isn't a good example:

(When I say "break the law" I mean person is not a violent criminal/thief. Public intox/weed is not included in this.)

Only if their controversial behaviour/views interfere with the quality of work to a point that it becomes worse than the next best candidate for the job or adversely effected the business the company receives.

Make sense?

Is it just me or does anyone else think that Mat should take away the <font color="green"> GREEN </font> from Wacki. First he complains about the way things are run and then about the lawyers and now refers to his job as "the insignificant job of internet forum modding."

If I recall correctly the only reason we had additional mods other than Mat and a few others was because of the "Jesus Guy" Ronald Grossi.

Be happy you are green wacki but if you have questions for you authority PM him don't keep stirring the crap in OOT a forum that you are no longer a mod in.

This post isn't for Mat. It's for all of you.

It has little to do with complaining, and a lot more to do with wacki's interest in some of your opinions. However, I do realize it's fun to completely ignore that truth.

I think you and Thinman are alone in this.

If it was my company, if my best worker's off work behavior put my company in a bad light, he'd be toast.

Also, I am very happy with some recent changes in 2+2. My open letter to Mat did exactly what I wanted it to do. I currently have NO problems with Mat, if anything I've developed a lot of respect for him recently.

This is a psychology poll if anything.
