    Oh no :( That isn't good news for us at all. But good for you! Congrats!
    At least you've mastered the patience of a saint working here. Lol

    You've been a rock here and I'm really happy to know that you aren't leaving us. Best of luck in your new position.

    Sad news for me as well, but hopefully it's a positive move for you. For the longest time there wasn't much of a voice in the forums from DAZ staff and then you started posting and for me, it really made me feel more connected. On numerous times you posted about products which helped me in a purchasing decision. You made a difference and you will be missed!!

    Hopefully your presence in the forums was positive for DAZ as well and we will get another "liaison" for the company to carry on your legacy.

    NNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
    Big J, how can you do this to me? Hrumph. Now I'm mad at you and I'm not going to talk to you anymore.
    (See how I made that all about me? :cheese: ;-) )

    We are going to miss you around here. Best of luck with the middle schoolers, and your new adventure. Please keep in touch.
    cheers!

    Hey Everyone,

    Normally we don't announce staff changes or make them public in the forums. However, since I'm probably the most active DAZ employee in the forums I feel/hope that my absence won't go unnoticed.

    Friday the 8th will be my last day here at DAZ. I've accepted a position teaching middle school math. It's been just over a year since I moved to a full time position here and became the public face of the company in the forums and I've got to say its been a great year.

    I'd like to thank all of you for making this community what it is. I'd also like to thank you all for an amazing year. I wish you all the best and I hope to bump in to you all in the forums from time to time. I won't be going by DAZ_jared anymore, but I'll still be around occasionally under my PA name Jr. PupN'Such.

    Congratulations on starting down the road to another rewarding career Mr Jared , you have always been very friendly and responsive to my post & request. I'm sure teaching math will be very close to policing the daz forums...lol J/K
    I hope that you will time to time drop in and let us all know how things are and YES will will miss you. :) Good Luck

    Good luck, Jared. I will definitely miss you as the voice of DAZ on the forums here, you did a great job. Take care!

    (and make sure to teach those middle schoolers how to multiply the percentages of stacking discounts :-P)

    Teaching middle school? Math? OhMyGod, we broke him! :red:

    Jokes aside, here's wishing you the best of luck. Don't give up the hammer, though, you're probably gonna need it.

    can i have your chair?

    I don't think he has a chair in the store.

    (goes and looks)

    No chair. No listing on the PA page. No anything. Jared, how can I give you a going-away present of an extra sale if you don't have anything for me to buy?

    Best of luck in going back to school!

    My (now High-schooler) swears her class was generally good... of course, she was in the Advanced Math class, so her experience isn't exactly representative.

    Good Luck, Jared. :)

    Jared- the kids are going to be very lucky to have you. You communicate clearly, are extremely patient, and above all, fair. I was a full time professor at a university- all my degrees are in Education- and all of us in that industry know that you really have to want to put yourself out there and really care about kids and their progress. That's definitely YOU. You've coached so many people on the forums and stuck with it, and we are looking forward to having you among us as a forum participant so come back soon!

    As Daz_jared, you will be missed. I did appreciate all the informative posts that you did and all the effort you put in keeping us informed and trying to keep us mellow (?).

    Good luck with the kids - I'm sure you will do great.

    Well that's a big loss for both the community and DAZ. I probably criticized you at some point for something, but I overall, I think you did a splendid job at representing DAZ here in forums. It felt like the issues of us customers were at least recognized and addressed as much as possible. You will be missed.

    All the best for the new job. These forums should have prepared you for the worst - probably - but still...kids! Good luck ;D
