Frontpage staff are needed for news gathering/posting duties for the front page.

We specifically need help adding news/articles in the morning, so if you have 20 minutes or so of spare time you can contribute in the mornings please send me a PM.

Any and all help is appreciated!

Thanks!

For those who never check the front page....:club:
You can find it here (http://www.billszone.com/).

Putting up the news is easy and doesn't take much time. If any of y'all are willing, we could sure use the help.

It works best if you are in the Eastern timezone. Being in the central, mountain, pacific sucks, because all the news is posted when you get up.

I agree usually but as of recently its not been up, we know its the holidays but with a site this big we need the extra help.

Yeah, I used to be able to squeeze it in when I first got to work in the morning, but our department has been shrinking people wise and therefore I've had more and more work...

I would love to help, especially since I post a lot of articles and sports pieces on the board anyway - but I'm out here in the west coast and don't start lurking around the forums until around 9am PST or later.:sorry:

Just a suggestion...

If you wanted to help we could have you look for articles a little bit later at night since most of our news people are on EST and are in bed when you're probably still up and checking things out. You could be like our 3rd shift news person. Obviously there would be less news but it would also allow us to post some news stories before the other guys wake up and update their page.

We also could use some writers. If anyone wants to put ink to paper let me know.

We could use someone to do power rankings, report cards, etc.

I know we are doing this late in the season, but our core of writers don't seem too interested in writing anymore.

Being stationed in Europe I am at work at 0730. That is 0130 on the east coast. So obviously I am up and would able to get all the stories up before anyone in the States is up... The only problem is that I am almost always gone on a mission or what not and won't always have time to do it. Sorry, but I must decline, I know you want me... Maybe if our missions cool off, I can make myself available.

You just volunteered and then just unvolunteered all in one post. You must be in the Army.

I did and I am. I hope you aren't trashing the Military. We inform the people of everything regardless of the outcome. We are supposed to and I am doing my part. I would love to help out the Billszone as you can see by me donating so much but because of my commitment to our country, I cannot support the Billszone anymore than what I currently am at this time.

Seems to be a lot of turnover in staff.
Sounds like my position at company.
Hiope it isn't because the bosses are a bunch of *******s who try to get workers to do teh work, shaft them on promotions and take credit for the work.

I'd like to help my internet connection is terrible.

On the base I work at in Italy, about 2/3 of the military are Air Force. Their commander here put out that they don't have to salute the flag while in PTs. We foud that out after chewing some Air Force ass for not saluting the American Flag as it was being lowered a couple of weeks ago. I talked to my neighbor about it and he confirmed.
