I certainly thank him for his many years at AccuWeather (32 total, though I have only known him for 14) and wish him my best. Joe is a great guy, all around. why is he leaving?

stormitecture Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I know it's kinda rude to say this with an Accu person here, but I wonder if it was a cost cutting move. Accu wx kinda known for screwing people income wise. Seems like I come across people who work or formerly worked there said the pay was horrible. Perhaps JB is gonna pull a B.Ryan and switch to the enemy (NWS...yeah, yeah...that is suppose to be old news)...BTW, that part is a joke. But of course it could purely be that JB wants to go indie and make a lot more money...he certainly has the means and resume to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
