Maybe we should put you 1st on this list of most shit-talking VPs 🤣
It’s just as important to avoid the shitty MDs than it is to align yourself with the best MDs
Agreed. But there are ways to do that without throwing people under the bus. From my experience, it’s best to be someone who builds up others and promotes good people. Not fun to be the one running around firing and criticizing people. Would you rather be the treasure hunter or the garbage man. Both are needed in society. I rather aspire to be the treasure hunter and promoter. I encourage other people to do the same.
Peace ✌️

If you really crown one MD a winner of WSO’s worst MD poll, are you going to send that guy a glass deal toy of a Monkey Shit?
