I never said there was no "network" but that it, at least in Portland, doesn't operate to suppress people outside if it. It is more a circle of friends...and there are several of them. When you have 350 people, not everyone is going to be associating in the same circles.

You never replied to my request for an example of even 1 person that was squashed by the "network"...someone that was truly more deserving than others but didn't get a chance. I know of several people who have left Portland and headed north to Vancouver but not one that I can think of was getting an unfair treatment. Most of them were getting very good schedules....some far better than most people with the same experience. They may have been frustrated with things for whatever reason but it wasn't because they were being treated unfairly relative to their peers.
