DrumManTx Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 ... strange thread. I've seen Stranger Things. o.o It's quite good. But yeah. You should call OP. That'd be best I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boo Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 It's entirely possible they just don't like the idea and have spent the past few months backing away slowly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liahona Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 It's entirely possible they just don't like the idea and have spent the past few months backing away slowly. I disagree...If someone asks you for something that you can’t or won’t do, for goodness sake, just tell them..Believing that “no response is the new no” is passive aggressive, cowardly and rude...Even if a stranger sends you an email, give them the professional courtesy of a reply, “Thank you so much for your request. I’m sorry that I can't help you.” It will take you less than 15 seconds and they’ll be out of limbo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newseditor44 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) Or... it could be that they have much better things to do, like run a drum corps, focus on tour logistics, get through tour, unload the equipment and souvenir trailers, organize the office, tend to business and financial matters, pay bills, get ready for next year, plan auditions, clean the offices, and oh yeah, sleep. Lest not forget, its a small staff to begin with, and in the grand scheme of things, replying to your email (and the thousands of others Rick probably receives) is most like very low on his prioirty list. Now, you can continue to waste your time airing grievances on a message board, which will get you nothing but ridicule and laughter, or you can stop being a puss-e, pick up the phone and call Rick and staff directly at the corps offices and talk to someone. Nothing in this world worth going after was ever accomplished by using a message board. Your choice.
