Great. Maybe the SOS will stop spamming my business email. Every time you file online, they sign you up for their pro-Dilbert propaganda. "Horseman fights for the little guy" emails galore.
SOS ever heard of opt in?
Word on the street is that McCullough is being told what to do by Mc. Deputy Director & Mc Deputy is running all the good people off. I hear the work environment there is bad. Good luck!
light weight for that job but most who at MDA are light weights by national standards.
Lofty title, equivalent CV of a line manager in the corporate world.
Didn't McDeputy run off a bunch of people at MSU too?
9:09 I think you're right. He's telling people he's cleaning up things. I call bullshit. He's running off good people. Listen up Glen or Gubner---he's NOT good for Mississippi.
So the GOP pushed out the owner of Hal & Mal for this lightweight PR mouthpiece?
And...your point, KF?? How is this news?
If Pamela is replacing Malcolm, someone just made a HUGE mistake. She did nothing at SOS but whatever Dilbert told her to do. But she is very pretty.
If I'm not mistaken, she is replacing Marlo
@11:54 PM, C-L ran the story. Are you dogging them also?
6:39, she is not replacing Malcolm, but it was time for Malcolm to go. She will do a decent job in Marlo's place - but not a big lift for anybody. My concern is - who will Dilbert have to tell him he is right all the time? Only one left is Dougie, and that's probably not enough for his ego.
But then again, Dilbert doesn't need anybody telling him he is always right - he's smart enough to know that on his on.
"Mc" has a great track record and is a great guy. Glenn and he are providing more leadership than that agency has seen in a long while.
Hottest chic in gov

What a ringing non-endorsement to have at the MS MDA.
@6:59 -- Dilbert, is that you ?
@12:11 - Dougie does all Dilbert's dirty work so Dilbert can keep his hands clean. He's also a very strange duck. His nose is very brown, also.
