					<description>Okay so, My boyfriend, Adam Dickstein, was fired along with several other people after 6 months on the job, for no real reason, the last person that got his job also got fired after 6 months and so on and so on. I really don't think wizard can make it too much longer, if they keep firing their loyal employees maybe people might connect the dots &quot;oh don't work for wizard or you'll get the shaft!&quot; but I think, that they expect us all to be dumb asses and not be able to figure what will happen down the road, I mean right before comic con nyc they fired 2 of the top and I mean TOP managers...so whats really going on?</description>

					<description>&quot;Can YOU spot the discrepancy in paragraph 2, boys and girls? Companies having record years don’t usually fire half the staff&quot;

 I've worked for big companies that said &quot;This year was all profit. But next year we need to make even more profit, so we are letting people with expensive salaries go. Try and do as good a job with less people so we look even better.&quot;</description>

					<description>It must be for New Wizard.   The thing that struck me as odd was the request for eight years of experience.  8 is a rather strange number to pluck out of the air, don'tcha think?  Is there a chance they already know who they're hiring, but have to go through this process for legal reasons?

I'm not sure I can throw my hat into the ring -- I doubt the Galactus costume would fit me.</description>
