Default First Time I've Ever Heard This...

I met a couple that was very upset with the Morse family yesterday to the point of selling their home and moving out. That's the first time I ever met someone even remotely dis-satisfied with TV. It was more about the Morse's as employer's than anything else. They were so upset that I didn't even try to discus it further. I just said that they were right to move if that's how they feel.

Of course......if they are so unhappy and upset, they should move.

I love what the Morse family have done to build such a wonderful community. I thought Del Webb communities were great......UNTIL I discovered TV.

TV is the best of the best.....hands down! ........and.thumbs up!

That's it? No specifics? Oh well, I guess that was excellent advice that you gave them.

I'm pretty sure I'll stay!

I'm curious, just what was the purpose of posting this sort of non-story?

The Morse's don't appear to be perfect, but I really have never met anyone (other than my wife) that is. It's those unhappy peoples right to move if they are not satisfied, but my guess is that they have been that way in life!

I look at it this way..... OPEN TEE TIMES!

Just my opinion. I love the Village's, and the Morse family has control for now, but having not met any of them (I am good with that) I think we will be staying a bit longer .

Xavier,

I didn't put in specifics specifically for reasons that are obvious to me.

The purpose of posting this "non-story" is as my subject states. I never heard of anyone being so unhappy here. That's all.....no underlying meaning here if that's what your getting at.

For the record though they were more disgruntled employees then anything else.

Well, they have every right to quit their job....that's for sure.

I bet there are plenty of people who would LOVE to work for the Morse family.

I'm definitely a non-Morse fan (at least the grandchildren of Mr. Schwartz). I'm also definitely a TV fan. Love the place, the people and the planning it took to make it happen. To leave because of the developer makes no sense to me, unless it really is a moral issue to you and you feel that their morality or lack thereof reflects on you by living here. Oh, well, to each their own.

I have met people who have left TV because they truly didn't like it. For one couple, it had just gotten too big. For one woman because she has never been happy here and now that her husband is dead, she can go back to NYC. For another couple it wasn't so much TV as Florida and its humidity and bugs. TV isn't for everyone, but I do believe it has something for everyone if they choose to look.

Of course there are people who don't like it here. Its is a big place with many,many people. Red said it best and I think much like her.
I have known about 12 people who have left because they didn't like it here.
I know hundreds that love it here.

By the way, no one is stupid enough to post on this board that they hate it here. Too many TV lovers on here.

As I said before, it would be like going to a team's cheer leading bench and trying to talk down the team they are cheering for...
