Wow, was there a party and I missed it?

Most users ever online was 179, Yesterday at 11:24 PM. :mad:

[simplydamon]

Sorry...we drank all the booze. Actually, it was me because of my part-Irish heritage.

We're not entirely sure what drove so much traffic to the site. There were a couple of blog mentions of Simply Hired & a mention in About.com - so these could have been contributing factors. It would have been nice if some decided to post :D

[George]

We need an open bar to get these people to post...lol

[simplydamon]

You're not kidding there! These forums are geared to be pretty harmless to all. I am not going to rule these forums with an iron fist ...I want everyone to simply have a great time & get information that might help them with their career search.

I don't bite...much :eek:

[George]

But I do bite...only if girls want me to...hehe. Did I say that out loud.

[simplydamon]

It looks like a German site had picked up Simply Hired. Das ist gut, Ja?

[George]

Whats the german site?

[simplydamon]

http://suche.web.de/ is the site.

[raincoaster]

What's German for "Post and get a free shirt?"

[simplydamon]

I wish I could remember the five years of German that I took. I never had a chance to use it on a daily basis - so now I can only pick up certain things when reading.

[George]

Looks like http://suche.web.de/ is a search engine.

[lifesab-andthenyoudie]

Were all those people's user names actually listed when they were online? That little box down there must have taken up the whole page.

(The things I wonder about sometimes. Sheesh)

[simplydamon]

No user names because they didn't register (lurkers only).

[lifesab-andthenyoudie]

I lurk sometimes when I just want to read quickly and not be bothered with sign in. Does that mean someone is still "watching me"?

[simplydamon]

It only means "someone" is online. No tracking outside of knowing how many people are lurking around...

[George]

I always use the keep sign on so I don't have to sign back on everytime.

[George]

I didn't miss this party at all.

Most users ever online was 538, Today at 08:51 AM.

[kd5145]

It's crazy, isn't it?

[simplydamon]

Looks like 800+!

[simplydamon]

A new record...

"Most users ever online was 1211, Today at 10:39 AM."

[George]

That is just crazy.

[kd5145]

Who's bringing drinks this time? :)

[simplydamon]

I'm gonna have to start drinking at work! ;)

[kd5145]

We say we are going to do that all the time. I think it was last year that the boss got someone a shot glass chess board. I kept trying to talk him into leaving it so on the days we were stressed out we could play Tequila chess.

[soulkeeper]

found this site off yahoo news, prolly where all the trafic is coming from.

[kd5145]

Awesome! Love to hear it.

I'm obviously out of the party invitiation loop! I'm never here when all these people are online.

[simplydamon]

It was quite early in the morning (California time). I was, of course, up. I have no idea why I was up that early:)

[hyena8]

Anyone else here a student of the Dutch language??

I love this site. Rocking people and lots of great tips.

I also love my job so maybe I don't belong here.... :(

[George]

Nothing wrong with liking your job.

[simplydamon]

Sorry...only know some German, Mandarin, Japanese, and Thai:) I would not claim to be an expert in any, however:)

Loving your job is cool. You could, however, pick up some tips to make your job even better:)

[hyena8]

My boss is trying to kill me. My regular work is hard enough. Then I get picked for a team which means even more stress. Then today I started training for another type of work. And soon I will be picked to learn another type of work. And I just got done training for yet another type of work. Oh yeah, and I was taken off training for another type of work so that means more stress and responsibility.

Plus 4 hours of overtime on the weekend and 5 hours of overtime this week so far.

Who needs sleep anyhow?? Or a stress free like?? Certainly not me!!

But yet my numbers are still too low to get my raise!! :confused:

:eek:

Big Brother is always watching. muwahaha

[simplydamon]

You would be surprised at what I actually know:)

[George]

Damon knows everything. He sees all.

[simplydamon]

The first step is to realize that you actually know nothing:) I am quite ignorant of many, many things....

[hyena8]

Damon has it all. Looks, intelligence, and a great job. ;)

[George]

Looks like hyena8 is smitten with Damon...hehe.

[simplydamon]

"Damon has it all. Looks, intelligence, and a great job."

I wish that I could actually meet #1 and #2. I do agree about the great job:)

[hyena8]

:o :o :o

What, a girl can't check out a cute guy?? ;)
