I say good riddance to the rift raft that was sinking the Dragon, and cheers to the Revolutionaries of the Rogue Nation that will save it!

      <![CDATA[Due to replacements, the slashing of various positions and shifts, but mostly toward a regard of loyalty to home and family, the original staff of the Green Dragon is now down from 30 to 3. Because the majority of us refuse to work for anyone who has a no swearing policy, who requires us to piss test (and pay $45 for it),tuck in our shirts, wear a name tag, and ask every customer we're unfamiliar with if they are part of "the rogue nation", we've chosen to leave. I've been employed by the dragon from day one, and though it's difficult to walk out on work given the times, it was much more unappealing to suffer through this transition. Those who are jumping ship are the most quality human beings I've ever had the pleasure to work beside, and more importantly, befriend. If any of you good folks know of, or yourself have work opportunity of any trade, please get in touch with us. <br>

      <![CDATA[It's more on the sleazy majority owner trying to sell without giving the other owners an opportunity to buy him out. Rogue knows a good thing when they see it and would love to gobble up any competition. So it seems to be bad form on both parties.

      <![CDATA[And why is this Rogue's fault?  Seems to me that the issue is between the majority and minority owners.  Declaring war on the wrong party isn't a good thing to do.  You would think that we would have learned that by now.

      <![CDATA[If there were shady dealings within the Green Dragon ownership group, well that's definitely not Rogue's fault.  The only problem I have with Rogue is that their pubs are complete shit.  Oh well there are plenty of bars in town I never visit, this will just be one more.  I suspect there'll be a lot of crossover in clientele between the Rogue Dragon and that horseshit bowling alley across the street.
