Here's the "f." Dale (as you so delicately put it),

Tuba playing jobs are dropping like dominos, particularly in the $20,000 - $30,000 range.

Someone offers a job (who knows... $6000 - $12,000...more?...less?...but a job) and some anonymous (_!_) runs the job down.

I don't get it: Tuba players are always trying to figure out how to get more work...In the meantime, "mainstream" jobs are dropping like flies...Someone comes up with SOME WORK, and an anonymous wimpy tuba player (who almost undoubtedly would accept the job, if offered it) criticizes it.

With that sort of reaction from the premiere tuba players' bulletin board, if I were Mr. Synergy, I might be tempted to come to the conclusion, "The hell with this. Let's just call Bobby Basstrombone."
