What does one need in a stompy? Knowledge of anything besides "how to spoiler font"? Obviously some trustworthiness. Being around a fair bit, helpful...but...??

I'd volunteer, but I suspect that after my job review in the next month, i'll be having to go daytime dark-gray, so...probably not a good plan.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

All of that's good. A fair amount of patience is essential, and the ability to differentiate between when to intervene and when to just let nature take its course when people are being idjits in the threads.

Frankly, the job entails very little, except for the really intense periods when it entails a Hell of a lot.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

It's like that Kenny Rogers song, really.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I was always partial to yprinkle as well. I also can't beleive that I constructed a spreadsheet to try and figure that out and THERE WAS NO ANSWER!

All joking aside, the stompy job ain't that bad. You just gotta remember that A.) Above all else, make the board run smoothly; and B.) remember these are real people that you're dealing with, and consequently deserving of some consideration, no matter how much you and everyone else wants to throttle them.

Other than that, it's a breeze.
