be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out

encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue

"Did Rebecca EARN the right to be in the Final 2?" |
I am not talking about Deserve, but Earn, her spot as one of two of the top candidates this season. Rebecca and Randle are both nice people and nice people deserve everything they get. But is niceness an Earned qualification in the Apprentice contest? Is Niceness a qualification one would put on a resume to be a top exec? So, the question is: What has Rebecca done to Earn, NOT to Deserve, her way into the Final 2 (using as examples, not just Randal, but all those candidates who were sent home before her)?

She didn't sound that way, IMO. She sounded rather timid when she asked for it from Brian, the PM, who was ignoring her as he begged Marshawn to do it. She obviously did not do well with the presentation either, as it was never again spoken of.

She won one. She almost lost it, then Randal saved her with his suggestion that they do the acting on the video.
The Microsoft

That's the one where Randal saved her.

She lost the other 2 she PMed. Her record is 2 losses/1 win.

I say they're pretty equal.

How do you know? I reiterate: it was never spoken of again.

Did they say they liked the PRESENTATION? Or was it never spoken of again?

Then why didn't she 86 the actor? Why was she telling him to do another take when Randal intervened?
>You make Randal sound like a
>god and Rebecca sound like
>a piece of crap.
Other than Randal SAVED Rebcca, I haven't said anything about hin (except, maybe, he EARNED his way into the Final 2 through merit, not favoritism). And I certainly never referred to Rebecca as a piece of crap. You did that.
I
>say they're pretty equal.
And you're entitled to your opinion which you evidently can't back up with facts, and with which I disagree.

No, but I read in her bio that she was voted teen most likely to.... and in Randal's bio he was voted businessman most likely to... so maybe for ratings they pit these two together for that reason.

5. "Most Definitly" |
Most definitely. She earned her right by going to the finsl 2 by showing DT the ability she is not a salcker. She has done almost all of the task on a broken ankle. She will be a great part of DT's organiztion if she is hired. Randal and Rebecca both earned the right!

Who amongst the candidates did you feel WAS a slacker? These were all Type A people, and I know of no Type A who is a slacker.

She went to work with a broken ankle. Most people who break their ankles continue to work, HAVE to work. And if they're lucky, like Rebecca, there are people on their jobs who will do all the heavy lifting and pulling, the manual labor, for them. But only if like Rebecca, they are LUCKY.

6. "RE: Did Rebecca EARN the right to be in the Final 2?" |
NO! I'm not sure in the context of this game what constitutes Rebecca being a nice person. When she broke her foot and decided to perservere in the game I was like, "good for her...you go girl!". It wasn't until the boardroom when she LOST the task as PM and TRASHED all the women with the exception of Toral, that I parted company with Rebecca. I felt that she could have defended Toral without putting all the other women down. To me that was just plain wrong. I also felt her attacking Randal (which was fair in the context of the game) illustrated to me that Rebecca was someone who would turn on a dime. So the adjective nice is not one that I would use concerning Rebecca. Maybe shrewd, perservering (the foot), or even placating as it concerns Trump but nice? no.

I think we can all express our like or dislike over Rebecca making it to the final 2. But, the fact is that Rebecca made it to finals. She outlasted all the other players and is now facing off Randal in the finals. So, within the context of the game, she does deserve to be there. Trump calls the shots, and makes the rules. We can agree or disagree with his decisions. If along the course of the season, Trump's decisions have led to a Randal vs Rebecca finale, then they both definitelly deserve to be there.

8. "RE: Did Rebecca EARN the right to be in the Final 2?" |
BTW, My prior post has nothing to do with a contestants' merit or qualifications. The Apprentice is not a show where qualifications or talent make much of a difference. If that were the case Amy would have won the first season or Ivanna (from season 2) would have been fired on the second week, instead of Bradford. The Apprentice is a game (just like Survivor or Big Brother are games)that tries to replicate the corporate world, but the bottom line is that it's still just a game. What matters is how you play the game given the rules established by Trump (which can change from week to week). So again, based on that fact, both Randal and Rebecca deserve to be in the final because they outlasted their competition.

they
>both definitelly deserve to be
>there.
I have no problem with Rebecca 'deserving' to be in the Final 2. Heck! ALL of them DESERVED to be there (with the exception of Toral - too incompetent, liar, too arrogant for one who is so talentless, so clueless, so umempathetic, unsympathetic, can't even use a TV remote control!). The question is: Did she EARN the right to be there? I'm sorry, but Adam comes quickly to mind. He, too, had one win and was a nice guy. Others were nice and had 2 wins (and don't get me started with Alla, the butt-kicker). So what, other than coming to work on a broken ankle did Rebecca do to Earn being in the final 2?

People lrlr is related to Randal that most explain their constant bombbardment of these boards slamming Rebecca and making Randal sound like he is the next DT. I personally I getting tired of it. Quit posting the same thing over and over again. I would hire Rebecca over Randal and I am sure Trump will also....if he knows best.

Having an opinion different from yours is no reason to show such blatant disrespect. This post should have been sent PM to the mod, not put on the board. If you have something to say to me, say it to me, not speak to another ON THE BOARD and ABOUT me as if I were a non-person, or an irrelevant to humanity one. Again, cease and desist with the, this time, sneaky bashing.
P.S. Unless, of course, you fear speaking directly to those who, like myself, can give as good as they get?
