cmr2014 November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 25 minutes ago, DangerousMinds said: I don't think his Walmart pay made him a loser in itself. I certainly don't judge someone,s worth by how much money they make. His other qualities, though. I agree that it's the whole package that makes him a loser. He married a girl he hardly knew from a family he didn't know. He took a job that would have paid well enough for a single man, or for a married couple with a wife working at least part time, when he knew his wife had no intention of working and planned to be pregnant within a year -- and every year after that. He quit that job to take up begging as a full-time job. He is such a bigoted, loud-mouthed asshat, that he got FIRED FROM REALITY TV. How does that happen? Given the nature of reality TV, there is no way that TLC would have cut ties with him if he was simply "controversial." Either he quit, or he is insufferable to work with and TLC decided to drop the Dullards in favor of one of the less tiresome kidults. 16 Link to comment
MonicaM November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 My guess is that when the guys married into the Duggar family, Big Daddy made it clear to them that enhancing the Duggar brand was a huge part of the marriage agreement. In return, he would take care of their financial needs, and they would benefit from travel, freebies, etc. Frankly, it wouldn't surprise me if Big Jim was the one behind Derick leaving Walmart. He seems like the type who wouldn't want a son-in-law blabbing to his co-workers about how the situation REALLY is in the Duggar household. I also think that TLC let Derick go after the first few hate tweets, and that's when he decided to ramp it up until he looked like a raving lunatic. He had too much to lose to voluntarily leave the show and infuriate the Duggar clan. Now he's getting a kind of revenge on TLC and Big Daddy. Just my two cents. 8 Link to comment

Sew Sumi November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 (edited) Radio silence from him since TLC's tweet. Jill, OTOH, has posted "Look over here! Shiny objects!" damage control. Not to mention, the pictures of her in pants surfaced, which certainly helped detract from Derelict's situation. Edited November 15, 2017 by Sew Sumi 12 Link to comment

lascuba November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 So Derick hasn't posted since TLC's announcement? Huh, this might change my mind about what went down, then. Maybe he and TLC were at an impasse that Derick was sure would end with him the winner, but his tweets made TLC give up on him entirely. Whatever, I love his silence now, both for the obvious reasons and because this type of quiet after news comes out--along with distraction posts--means that the Duggars are freaking the fuck out and trying to regroup. To be a fly on that wall... 14 Link to comment

The person is obligated for the length of the contract. There are ways to get out of it and what Derick did is one of them. Well technically a person can walk off and the network can then sue the person. It's usually best to get negotiated out of a performance contract.

leighdear November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 My point was that his choice to marry and immediately pump out a kid without even working a year was immature and short-sighted. Then he quits or is fired and has absolutely nothing to fall back on except for some bogus scam that expects strangers to support them in a foreign country. No planning, no strategy, no backup and no legitimate way to support 4 people makes him a loser to me. 10 Link to comment

Sew Sumi November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 I think we can take an educated guess as to whom Boob's least favorite SIL is. Before this, he probably gave Derelict latitude for "free speech," not wholly understanding the consequences that Derelict brought upon himself with his first tweet about Jazz, which was a direct retweet from TLC's promotion of I am Jazz. 3 Link to comment

One of my family members started as an accounts receivable clerk at $10/hour with a B.S. in Accounting like Derick. They have been with their company for two years and were recently told that due to their incredible work they were going to be made head of a brand new department with a substantial pay increase. It's a matter of paying your dues and being exemplary no matter your position that counts, so I can't snark on Derick for taking an entry-level job and maybe hoping to move up the ranks (which didn't happen, obviously). Agreed. Everyone must pay their dues. However, $31,200 in Arkansas is pretty solidly middle class I believe. The cost of living is pretty low, 11 Link to comment
riverblue22 November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 So Derick had a B.S. in accounting but was not a CPA? I guess he wasn't all in on being an accountant. 1 Link to comment
Sew Sumi November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 No, he never pursued the further education needed to attain CPA. He went to Nepal just a few months after graduation. Not sure what he did with his time in the interim, but I guess he could have done a semester of grad school. I haven't looked at his LinkedIn for quite a while, but I don't recall any post-grad work listed. Link to comment

Very stupid and irresponsible of Derick to jeopardize his and his inlaws only source of income when he has a wife and 2 kids to support. Why isn't everything that has happened (failed donation grifting, fired from SOS, botched births) a sign from God telling him to quit wasting time on "ministry" and get a job.

My husband had a friend, a pastor's son, with a wife & 1 kid plus twins on the way. Wife didn't work, said friend worked a crappy low paying job but he wouldn't take extra work or look for a better paying job bc he trusted in the Lord. He had no problem taking for himself items that were intended for his father's church outreach pantry and accepting donations from his father's congregation, all from people who were struggling themselves to make ends meet. I guess the Lord does provide, but in this case, at the expense of others even less fortunate. Edited November 15, 2017 by lulu69 Clarity 8 Link to comment

He wouldn't even go look for a job, as his belief was that God would provide him a job if needed. I guess God wasn't working through the want ads (what we used back then). For a lot of these fundy guys, 'God will provide' seems to be code for 'too lazy to work'. I am sorta wondering if Derick, with the first tweet, wasn't calling TLC out in his own ignorant way. I can picture him thinking that, by going public with his lack of understanding of transgender individuals, he was going to force TLC's hand and they would, of course, drop Jazz over him. He could well have told the execs that he didn't want to be on the same network as the evil Jazz, thinking that they'd cancel that show since he and his wonderful godly family sent such a wonderful Christian message. Then, much to his surprise, they showed Derick the door. 15 Link to comment

saylubee November 15, 2017 Share November 15, 2017 Derick already seemed to be on the way out before all the Jazz stuff started though. He and Jill were nowhere to be seen during the Q&A session. That was filmed before Samuel’s birth and they made a pretty big Instagram splash that filming weekend at Silver Dollar City and the Boy Scout camp with Dan. I agree with others who have speculated that TLC is the reason he lost the SOS gig. Basically SOS said no more filming, TLC said “here’s your contract, yes more filming,” and then Derick was fired. He responded by scorching earth with TLC to break whatever morality clause they have in the contract. 6 Link to comment

Popular Post JoanArc November 15, 2017 Popular Post Share November 15, 2017 I shamelessly stole was love offered this joke: Jill brings home Derick to meet her parents. After dinner, Michelle tells Jim Bob to find out about the young man. The father invites the fiance to his study. "So what are your plans?" Jim Bob asks Derick. "I am a Bible scholar." he replies. "A Bible scholar? Hmmm," Jim Bob Says. "Admirable, but what will you do to provide a nice house for my daughter to live in, as she's accustomed to?" "I will study," Derick replies, "and God will provide for us." "And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring, such as she deserves?" asks Jim Bob. "I will concentrate on my studies," Derick replies, "God will provide for us." "And children?" asks the father. "How will you support children?" "Don't worry, sir, God will provide," replies Derick. The conversation proceeds like this, and each time Jim Bob questions him, the young man insists that God will provide. Later, the Michelle asks, "How did it go, honey?" Jim Bob answers, "The bad news is, he has no job and no prospects, but the good news is he thinks I'm God." 75 Link to comment
