To all the public courier contractors.

I want to say thank you for doing your bit toward making me wealthier in EVE.

7j through lowsec for 105k ISK? 10j through highsec for 70k ISK? I can always count on you to get the job done.

Haul billions of ISK worth of stuff from an oversupplied Jita to an undersupplied other trade hub for peanuts? I can always count on you.

And if you don't get the job done - even better for me.


Keep being useful, and keep being idiots. And thank you.

This is why I got out of the courier business.

Because when Sabriz calls you an idiot, it stings twice as much as when anyone else does it.

That, and I prefer to be called minion.

I really am wasting my breath though, when you can avoid questions from Hexxx and RAW23 like that you must have some seriously devoted investors. --Elizabeth Norn

Minion, did you decide to stop being an idiot, or did you decide to stop being useful?

See? It just sounds so much better that way.

Also, Boss training is my specialty.

If you, dear reader, have a Boss in need of help using her words correctly, drop me a line

There are so many people in EVE who don't value their time at all. I guess they just find it relaxing to deliver courier contracts or whatever. So weird. But hey, if they're okay with it, and we're okay with it, what's the problem?

I see a lot of arrogance, stupidity, and e-peen in this post. Insulting the people doing your chores, because you feel like a g0d lol.

I guess your goal is to tell the couriers they are charging too little, and they should just stop being a courier altogether.

Unfortunately, this is probably how the corporate power brokers on Wall Street and DC feel about working Americans -- minus the thank you.

Probably. But I suspect their lives are much emptier than we can possibly think.
