Why do you assume every post is directed . . .

to you or in reference to your posts????  Sorry, but the world and this board don't revolve around you.  Get real.


 


Sorry, last post directed to Trixi, not original poster. nm
:)
last post suppose to be ad, not as directed. Word expander was on.
Sorry.
I feel people who feel like this post
needs to a) either be a stay at home mother and not work or b) realize that she is no queen bee and I could care less about a degree. What company out here that you know of compensates for having a degree? Means nothing to them. Your working and being there when they assign/need/require/whatever is what you should do IF YOU WANT A JOB in this field, otherwise get out and do something else or become that babysitter.
Jodi, you feel free to post whenever you want to and if you see something

ugly posted, you just email me directly and I'll deal with it.  I am intolerant of people being mean on this site.  I can be reached at admin@mtstars.com.


On an episode of Dr. Phil I saw just the other day, he said that children have a hard enough time living outside of a broken home, but should never have to live INSIDE of a broken home.  Wise words, in my opinion.  I, personally, think you did the right thing and as long as you are taking care of your children and have a decent roof over their heads, he really can't do much.  Like you said, if he wants to partake in your children's upbringing then he can come to see them.  Unless you moved closer to your parents or siblings then you should probably sit tight where you are since you have a home church and people there who you can talk to.  Also, there are very caring people who post here regularly, so please don't give up on this site just because of a bad apple.

I'm sorry you feel picked on. Yours was the post I responded too because SM
yours was the one I found to be most unbelievable and in case you didn't notice, I wasn't the only one who found it unbelievable.
These threads always make me feel inadequate... I'm not about to post...

"Uh, I dunno.. I'l sling the freezer open at 6 oclock and toss some fish sticks and french fries on a cookie sheet and slice up some fruit."


Seems like everybody is so gourmet....


I feel kinda lazy reading your post as i'm content just

Where I feel crazy, I set a goal of around 300 lines an hour (ha! not with these dictators but 250 is still good), every two hours make a snack to get me moving.  I love juicing veggies and making fruit smoothies in the blender, coffee makes me nuts.  I also do calisthenics (sp?) every couple of hours for about three minutes to keep my blood flowing and keep toned.  I walk the dog two times a day for about 10 minutes to get energized from the sun and keep a good color.  I take an hour break to watch good ol Judge Judy, and fix myself something nice n yummy, and after Judy I crank out my last hour called the 'power hour' where I take no prisoners and smoke comes off my keyboard!  Like a race to the finish line.


I can't see how you could do the 20 and the 10 minute clean break, that would slow me down!  Maybe I should take cleaning breaks, because I never want to clean when I have a block of time off and the dirt just collects.


Sorry you feel that way, but we have never allowed offshore MTs to post on the MTStars website.

This is not something new, it's been this way since the beginning.  The ONLY difference we made was to allow US based MTSOs that offshore the ability to post job ads because they hire US QA Editors.


Of course you can, but there is a board for that purpose. Feel free to post on the Comedy Stop.

This post made you defensive, just like those e-mail nastygrams make us feel.

Not directed at anyone in particular

but after reading the thread below by the obviously young editor asking for help, a thought just occurred to me:  MAYBE the original poster in this thread was one of those young mother's working with kids at home and MAYBE her editor was working at home with her kids.  MAYBE both were having a particularly bad day.  MAYBE they lashed out at each other.


Still better than resorting to child abuse.  Just another argument for not trying to be all things to all people all at the same time.


The insult was probably not directed at you then.

You are a "mobile home dweller", not "trailer trash" or a skank.  There's a big difference, one you can tell by looking at the home and the person.  We have some very nice mobile homes on our block nestled amongst the stickbuilt houses.  There used to be four "trailer trash" houses.  One of them remodeled and it looks quite nice.  Another one moved out, someone bought the lot, sold the trailer, tore up the old foundation, and now they have a really nice big yard.  We're still trying to get rid of the other two.  If they'd only clean up the junk littering their yards, mow and water once a week, and paint the exteriors, they'd have nice properties.  I don't understand why able-bodied people would not maintain their properties to keep or increase the value.  Instead, their dumps make the entire neighborhood look trashy.  Ironically, there are city laws here that they must mow and they must clean up their junk and abandoned cars.  These are the people screaming drunk in the streets at 2:00 a.m.  Other people have turned them in to the police repeatedly.   Thus, true trailer trash.  If I had only known 10 years ago what I know now, we never would have bought this place.


I can somewhat relate to your taking offense.  It's the same thing with the dumb blonde jokes.  However, I just tell myself that I'm not dumb or dyed, so the remark isn't directed at me.  You aren't a trailer trash skank, so the remarks weren't directed at you.  You are a very nice, intelligent mobile home dweller.


Gosh, who was that directed at?
I had a child on Cobra before as a bridge between college and her getting a job- oh, 5 or 6 months, very expensive I remember. Who lost their husband? I gained bunch of weight when the thyroid went. Weight definitely can be health related.
Whoever directed you should learn to MYOB.
Why did they direct you there? Are you worried that anyone who looks at her page will think everyone who works there is a lesbian? Why would it make you feel soiled? As a proud sister of a former lesbian (had a sex change), I think you are being overly worried about what someone else is doing.
I know your posted wasn't directed at me.
I wasn't being argumentative with you. However, the difference between $20 as an IC and $11.50 as an employee could be the insurance, retirement and employment taxes your company pays for you. I don't know if the people complaining were ICs or employee status. Honestly, I'd take either one right now! LOL So... is your company hiring?
Forgot to as directed steroid injections!
For headache sufferers, there is nothing like supraorbital blocks and Botox for frontal headaches and occipital nerve blocks and trigger point injections for posterior head pain. Unfortunately, they wear off though. It helps diagnostically so the doctors know what they are dealing with. One doctor offered me a rhizotomy. I finally went through with a cervical fusion because my neurosurgeon said it would clear up all the pain. I wish it had......
Golly. All that nastiness directed at someone who agreed with you?
You're the one who didn't want anything but nicey nicey. Sometimes the truth isn't nicey nice. Sometimes the truth doesn't have bunnies and flowers. It's all part of the rich tapestry of life. If I'm wasting your time, just don't read my posts. Call me a child if you want. You're the one having the tantrum.
Yeah, he and Karl Rove directed the hurricaine to New O. lol nm

Use less salt than directed in the recipes. Try the powdered milk hot chocolate recipes! Yummy :-)

if you feel like that after 12 years, and I feel like that after six months
what hope is there?
Should just post all their open positions in one post and only be allowed to post one of those a day

No need to feel badly for me - feel badly for an adult who has no control of his/her own life!
I hope these people didn't produce any daughters! Bad, bad example!

Ignore my post. I finally found the post on how to do this. nm

Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line.  Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with.  At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone).  At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight.  It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat.  Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are.  You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents??  They sound whacked.  Please be careful.
Sorry, I posted this post under the wrong post
Sorry

my post did not all post in the subject, my apologies...
I think you can get the idea.

thanks.
Excellent post! I copied this post and...
am going to show it to my shrink so he can understand my frustration with my new "profession!" By the way, how much you wanna bet he pulls in 300$ an hour and has two years of schooling on me! Hmmmmmmm. Okay, you flamers, don't tell me to go back to school...I am thinking about it. Hmmmm
Because my post was deleted in reference to the above post, sm
Ladies-once again, I apologize for coming across as a witch in the above post.  I appreciate the links and the time spent on posting them.

Ah, I really meant to post that under the original post
Though it was gourdpainter's post which inspired me to post that suggestion.

what mean post made you post your post
Which mean post was the straw that broke the poster's back.
Yes, she had post partum depression AND post partum psychosis. I posted on this a while back, and
it explained the two. The psychosis actually develops after the depression. Scary stuff.

Don't they post that information when they post the

I know how sad you must feel
Yes, you will love her forever, and someday you will be able to think of the good times you had with her, and you will be able to laugh.  
I know how you feel. :)

Don't feel bad!
It took me nearly a year to even find out if I had passed just before they went to the instant results system.
Don't feel bad...
When you take a position with any company, up front ask them if you will be working on a "ver batim" account. If so, don't take the position. Keep looking. Someone will appreciate your intelligence and knowledge somewhere! Good luck, and please know that you're not alone!!!
I feel the same as you...
My account does not allow me any normals. I am to leave a blank and they fill in the standard. I'm also a CMT and been at this for 30 years. I feel I'm doing something wrong when I hear all these 300-400 counts. I average maybe 200 per hour on a good day. I know some of my problem is having to look up referring doctors, but I can't imaging doing 300-400 lines on a consistent basis per hour! Thank you for your post. At least I know I'm not alone!
I feel for you
Last November I fell from a ladder, grabbed it with my right hand and severed nerves in 2 fingers, since I was at home, had home owner's which paid me a little and had AFLAC thru my job which helped, finally about to get back to normal but the last 6 months have been pure heck, good luck.
I feel that way every day. sm

I just take a break every 2-3 hours and take the dog for a walk or exercise or something.  Sometimes, I run up and down the stairs or just go and sit out on my deck for a few minutes to get some fresh air.


 


Not sure it is menopausal symptoms as I am younger than the age.  For me, it is my personality trait.  I am a type A personality.
