Introducing CLS' First Full-Time Employee: Dustin Furman

Hey Everyone!

I hope you're well. Fun week, huh?

So, I had intended on announcing this earlier in the week, but obviously, distractions mounted. But there's good news, because -- thanks to your support -- Colin's Last Stand has hired its first full time employee. Hurrah!

His name is Dustin Furman, and he's been my freelance editor since late in 2018. He edits everything you hear and watch: Sacred Symbols, KnockBack, Fireside Chats, and Side Quest. He's still gonna do all of that (plus edit Sacred Symbols+ and deal with some other odds and ends), so nothing really changes for you. All that changes is that Dustin is all mine. He cannot escape.

In all seriousness, though, Dustin is exceptional at his job. He works hard, he doesn't make excuses, and he refuses joints when I try to pass them to him, which is cute, and simply means there's more for me. This move basically solidifies our relationship with each other. It gives Dustin the reliability of a regular paycheck, and it gives me the knowledge that I have someone I can really trust, and who I can treat well for his hard work.

Dustin will remain in Western Pennsylvania, and will work remotely. But I've met him multiple times, and I promise you: He's very real.

I suspect that, for as long as CLS exists, Dustin will be on the roster. So let's welcome him: Colin's Last Stand's very first full-time employee! And remember: Without your support, none of this would be possible. I now have a mouth to feed other than my own fat face!

Welcome, Dustin. I'm glad we could make it official.

Thanks, all. Be good. -Colin

Congrats Dustin!

Brandon Kirzeder

Congratulations Dustin and to Collin for continuing to grow.

Damian Castillo

This may be sacrilegious as a native, but I'm not a big fan of Primanti bros!

Dustin Furman

I was wondering if there'd be any crossover. Thanks for listening!

Dustin Furman

May your heart be your guiding key!

Dustin Furman

15!

Dustin Furman

Colin once called me his "sweet baby boy" if I remember correctly. So that's probably as good as spectacular.

Dustin Furman

:D

Dustin Furman

I wonder if anyone has ever told Dustin he looks a little like Justin Roiland. Maybe I’m crazy.

Welcome to the fold Dustin, enjoy sacrificing infants 👍

Hozi

FUCK YEAH DUSTY

"We regret to inform you the latest episode of Side Quest is delayed. Dustin got lost in the vegetable garden again."

Matthew Schultz

So happy you are joining Colin! Western PA, huh. If Colin would just offer a Primanti brothers sandwich instead of a joint you may take his offer. Lol

Michael J Sutherland

Cool that he can edit, but how many platinums does he have? That’s the most important information.

Pedro Alves

Dustin, as an editor, I assume you will understand when I say, "I want the next episode on Side Quest to look a little more blue, but feel a lot more orange." I hope Colin doesn't frame-fuck you to death. Congrats on the full time gig!
