in reference to this part of your post, what if the travel section reporters are in a sense, making money for writing about the very things we all toil about to come up with in here and share?

This is a public forum so all they have to do is land that job, know a few things and then come here to ask us to more personally clarify what it is exactly that we did on XYZ promo or something and they have their story.

they make coin for the article, we get merely named (or blasted for this), and it goes on...

Not that Karen is doing this but man, we all should write for our local pubs, eh?
Maybe I will write a book on this stuff and copy/paste everything I like in here that relates to my own issues in order to do so--being certain, of course, to name names so as to unprotect the guilty! ha ha.
