Milk - how heartless

In Reply to: I'm the person you responded to sm - how heartless

I can relate. I returned a purchase (a dress) in order to get groceries instead because was hit by unexpected medical expenses ($15 copay and $40 copay for meds for my son).

Why milk?
What is with all the people who drink so much milk?  If you are that broke, buy some oatmeal for pete's sake!   It lasts and all you do is add water.  Oh, the drama with the milk!  
Milk is for calves any way...sm
I quit nursing my mother many moons ago. Sure don't need to nurse a cow.
seems most are heartless now
I hired a girl the other day whose husband became critically ill and she was afraid to leave and go to the hospital with him!! Nobody should have to work for a company like that!! There are always some people to take advantage, but really, people have emergencies, they get sick, they have kids who get sick, etc.
heartless SPi

Obviously, your post shows that you have been through the same situations I experienced, and for those of you who still may be folishly thinking you'll hang in there as another posted suggested, or even applying for Heaven's sake, I can verify that the above post is 100% spot-on. 


Even if they FINALLY have moved one of the 3-4 people left who know how to run a MT service into a regional director position in the past few days, why would any intelligent person decide to hang in there for one second longer to be mistreated and demoralized?  I can assure you, if they give him no more support than they have their other managers, it won't take him long to become disheartened and leave as well. 


They get what they deserve.  Wake up!  SPi is a huge company owned by a cororation the eqiuvalent of AT&T in the Philipines who have no regard for our US family!  


That was rude and heartless

Wow! That was Cold and Heartless
I am not in any way, shape or form a supporter of AHDI. In fact I despies them. I think they have sold this entire industry down the river.

I should be surprised that they treated you in this horrific way, but sadly, I'm not. They are all about money and padding their own pockets.

I did happen to get a very small raise when I got my certification, certainly nothing to write home about and certainly nothing to compensate for the expense of maintaining their credentials.

I just did it to see if I can accomplish it. I don't know if I will bother to keep it up either.

I'm sorry you had that experience at such a hard time in your life. I think we both agree that AHDI sucks...as in the loud sucking sound from dollars leaving your wallet...
Yep, it was cold and heartless
which was pretty much the tone set by the original queen bees who set the organization up eons ago. As a Californian, I saw first-hand the shenanigans. I once went to one of their daylong seminars at a hotel in Berkeley just to give them a fair chance. Guess what the presentation was? Some plastic surgeon who gave a thinly-veiled infomercial for getting your boobs done. That lack of professionalism, coupled with the coldness and heartlessness they showed to a friend of mine, was enough to convince me that this was not a group I would want to give any time/money/loyalty to. I didn't, and I have been just fine.
Happy cows give more milk -
It would really take VERY little effort on their part and they would probably get back so much in return if they would only treat people with kindness, fairness, and decency. Does it take so much to answer an e-mail that does not pertain to account specifics or something else not covered elsewhere? I am not talking about carrying on a conversation with someone because I want to work and be left alone myself, but sometimes I have a question that needs an answer. I am still waiting for a response on something I sent over a month ago! That is not the first e-mail to go unanswered...I personally would never claim to be under so much stress that I used that as an excuse to ignore the very people who make DSG (and any company for that matter) what it is or be rude to them.
I just bought a 1/2 gallon of milk with a gift SM
card at the drug store.  A gift card I got for transferring my prescription there last week (so I could get the gift card).  I don't even have $1.89 cash to pay for milk. 
I work for Keystrokes and I am not heartless or hateful...
I think the other posters just had horrible, horrible experiences with this person when she was there and they are just still very angry...sometimes anger makes you say things you don't necessarily mean...they are just trying to stick up for a good company and not let one disgruntled former employee badmouth them...
Sorry, but truly suspect it's like wondering which'll keep delivering milk by horse-drawn wago
