Oopsdabassist Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Seems to me that pleasing the suits is more more important than being able to play. Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I bet there are no suits involved at all......just someone thinking that sounding corporate is the same as sounding professional. Big difference Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezbass Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 [quote name='Jus Lukin' timestamp='1408201430' post='2528050'] Doesn't quite count as employment, methinks! [/quote]"Successful applicants will be invited to attend a music session in the presence of the company directors" sounds like a commercial venture to me.
