Doesn't matter how long it's been. I've been playing since 2011, hired 2013 (resigned same year because computer was starting to die, as well as interferring with some things) and I never begged. Only been warned once and that was 2011 or 2012. Basically what I'm saying is, begging ruins your chances and that just because you've been playing for a year does not mean you are "ready" to be staff.
