I get that.
And I think that is the honorable route.
To whit,
@Embrand's respect of the process,
and not asking for an exception to policy,
is equally honorable.
But, setting aside honor for a moment,
not considering certain exceptions,
for better, or for worse,
creates an atmosphere where I am on Slack,
and
@Embrand is not.
So, while I would be disappointed if my slack permission was ever revoked,
I would think, on paper, and in terms of value benefit,
that
@Embrand being apart of BB slack (even if as an exception to policy)
would surpass any benefit I bring to slack.
I'm a pain in the ass. I get that. I have to live with myself. So I could understand why BB wouldn't want me apart of their slack. Following their metric guidelines or not.
But
@Embrand, c'mon yall, if there was ever a need for an exception to policy, I would look long and hard to find one. Especially given these distancing times. The brandable community needs all the support that it can, and I don't see a need to enforce, or build a wall, to keep those who were once valued, distanced.
My 2¢ FWIW.
