Time for me to move on from Webroot
-
@Dashrender we were told some stories that I am sure were true. For example the one about the beer was a guy that never drank alcohol before and didn't know how to react when drunk and got hit by a car. A drunk guy probably did get hit by a car whether it was his first time drinking or whether the alcohol caused it, that is deabateable.
Also absolutely some people have addictive personalities and can instantly become addicts to anything (not limited to drugs). So yes I am sure that someone tried marijuana once and was 100% addicted to it, but that is one person. Not the majority.

Again I go back to the rebellious question - did it seem cool because kids are rebellious and want to do the opposite of what "the man" says they should?
Kids in kindergarten think cops are cool, once you get to middle school you don't think that anymore. At least the majority of kids don't.
So you're giving me this point then? that it's really just the rebellious nature of children, so the message is lost. I can accept that.
Yeah exactly. If authorities said something was cool it rarely was. Most adults don't know how to talk to middle schoolers and they treat them like they are in elementary school.

Their HQ is in Spokane? That's only 2 hours south of where I grew up in Idaho.
That's cool you get to work from home. What are you going to be doing that warrant's being able to do that?

It does not take rebellious nature to not think that a cop is cool. Also, cops are not in charge of kids, therefore rebellion is not applicable.

That's just where the business is registered, for legal reasons. The parent company is actually in Tucson, AZ, so I'll be making some regular trips out there. Since it's an online community for cannabis professionals, I'll be building and growing the community - basically all the same stuff I've done elsewhere
-
Sure, the guy with a fro is going out to start a pot growing business.
No stereotypes there!

Will you still be giving out 1 year trials?
While I still have them
There was subtle Internet humor in my joke.
I wasn't talking about Webroot codes.
Ah, I missed that. I'll have gifts for visitors, but I won't be able to send them outside of Colorado
I've said it before, I'll say it again.
MangoCon 201X ... Colorado!
I'd be more likely to attend, since it's just a jump over from Boise. I was just in Denver last month hanging out with @zuphzuph.

That [moderated]er @zuphzuph skipped MangoCon cause he had to move.
Boo! Boo!

[Moderated]... is the word 'bon'? If so, bon isn't a bad word. /sarcasm

This +one zillion. I know folks that literally took one hit or something and have never been able to get shaken loose. Every time they get close to kicking the habbit, something happens and they get stoned again... I don't think it was cannabis, but something harder though.

So @Nic do you get an employee discount on the weed?

Asking the important question :')

Well the company I'm working for doesn't grow weed itself, they just fund this community. But I'm sure I'll get some samples from some of the community members

@Nic said in Time for me to move on from Webroot:
I'm jumping ship to rejoin the startup world and begin a new endeavor building a community from scratch: http://growersnetwork.org/ (insert your weed jokes here).
I'll still hang out on here, just not officially representing Webroot. I'm still happy to answer any Webroot questions and help you get in touch with the right people at Webroot if you need help. We'll get a replacement for me once they can hire someone, but in the meantime I'll fill in.
I'll be working from home now, so anyone passing through Colorado let me know so I can have an opportunity to get out of the house and socialize with people in person
Well, good luck. I know you will do an awesome job!!! Congrats!
