I sense Tod is up for a lot of things, but he doesn’t deserve that.

I hope the position remains unfilled.

It doesn’t matter what we think because I do believe they are looking for someone who will actively “monitor”, “enforce”, “maintain” Oh goody. It *is* Mom, only without the love part…

We all want our buddies there, they want an Enforcer. Am I the only one creeped out by this? Seriously think about what this is saying. The implications are creepy, are they not?

Here’s the thing: We, the RE.net, are a very tiny puny little group of people. It’s oh-so-cozy here, ain’t it? Even when it’s not cozy, it’s tiny. So we all know each other, and we work with or around each other. We are a group of individuals that have learned how to do this. But the NAR is a ginormous thing. So I think we are looking at this from our little world, and adding all the warm fuzzies, but the ad isn’t warm or fuzzy. It’s serious business about serious business.

I’m skeptical, as always….

>The Manager of Social Media will ensure that NAR has the knowledge and skills to guide NAR staff and members in creating, facilitating, and participating effectively in key conversations about our organization, our issues, and our members that are conducted on blogs and other online social media channels.

This position requires a high-energy, self-directed, deadline-oriented individual who has exceptional communication skills and is able to:

* Monitor real estate industry and related social media
* Facilitate NAR’s participation in external blogs and social media
* Maintain, evolve, and enforce NAR’s social media policies and guidelines
* Train NAR staff and elected leaders about how to write for blogs and other forms of social media
