    Has it been that long? Wow, we've spent too much of our lives dealing with SCs. Ah, well-congrats I guess?

      Roughly 16 years for me. I've seen people come and go, and some of them come back again. I've seen three different owners, and more incarnations than I can remember. I became a moderator after two years, and an admin three or four years after that.

      Where does the time go?

        I go back to the summer of 2001 (most likely July) and you were already here Mike

        Too much stuff has happened in that time period Yeah 16 almost 17 years time does fly as they say

            July next year will be 10 years for me.
            Any fool can piss on the floor. It takes a talented SC to shit on the ceiling.

                I've been around almost that long myself (2001 I think?) so yeah, I'm not sure where it goes.

                I'd say I've been a moderator since roughly 2004. IIRC, Protege and I were appointed by Mr. Slugger at the same time.

                  I guess we can refer to BookstoreEscapee as one of the decade-nt.

                    Lol, I'll take it.

                    I'm not all that active anymore, except around the holidays with the card exchange. When I first found this place, I was about 6 months out of actually working retail. I joined to respond to a question regarding the company I work for (asking the best way to pass on some praise about an employee of their local store).
