People in fields like advertising and sales making like 50k sign non-competes all the time

Because they usually have detailed knowledge of their previous employer's roadmap up to the next two years.

Giant Bomb can't even lock down a schedule for the next week

I knew these times would come eventually....but goddamn it does it suck. I wish drew the best, and of course I'm gonna follow him to see what he does next.

I don't ever want Giant Bomb to end, but it's inevitable. Fuck.

You're right but I wish there was a way to prevent another Austin scenario. That whole thing still rubs me the wrong way if I'm being honest.

Nah, as much as we like to think of giantbomb as a group of pals, people should not stifle their career choices because of that. I'm sure they wouldn't want that either.

I think it's more about how soon he quit. I can't blame him but I do understand why people might feel it's kinda shitty. A lot of money, time and resources were used to get him and obviously other people didn't get the job.
Again though, I don't blame him.

Anybody want a Gwent closed beta code for the Xbox One? MS just sent me one and I have no interest in that game whatsoever.

Exactly, this notion or idea as if it's some sort of "betrayal" is real fucking dumb.

Betrayal is too strong a word, but I don't think there's anything wrong with being a bit miffed about the Austin thing. Dude spent less time at GB than it took to hire him.
 
I'm heartbroken over Drew.

He was my favorite bomber. Hands down. I always hated how people always complained about Drew being on a podcast before when they were alternating Jason/Drew, they would always say Drew was far too quiet.

I miss you already Drew.

What's cool about For Honor is that I have to wait to level up despite finishing a game that should level me up because their infrastructure is so shitty

how bout that? I have to WAIT until THEIR shit gets sorted despite it letting me do the work to get hte level.
 
i know how to cheer everyone up

remember that car in crackdown that when it was fully upgraded made other cars that you hit fly off of it like a ramp? that was cool. crackdown was great.

Man, 3 new hires.

Jeff's been 3 for 3 with Dan/Jason/Austin. Could he do it again?

I've been fortunate enough to enjoy everyone's presence in GB, but it'd be a shame if there was someone who I didn't enjoy enough to the point that their presence in a video actually made it worse.

Also, hopefully this means we finally get a female duder.
