I am ignoring her s/m

Not worth replying to her. 


Ignoring is being complicit, and
insulting someone who does NOT ignore wrongdoing is in itself stupid and childish. So don't come on here with that superiority crap. We have as much right to our opinion as pathetic cherry-picker sm does. So ____ off, unless you have something to contribute.
apostrophes

I would get dinged for putting those apostrophes in.  It does look weird to me too.  Who do you believe anymore; BOS, different companies QA. Where you may leave out for one company you will get dinged at another.  So confusing and it is hard to keep straight. 


But I've been ignoring it for years - LOL
True!!
Personally my view is not that ignoring is
necessarily defending. However, cherry-picking is rampant because cherry-pickers know nothing will be done about it. Thanks to people like you. Cherry-picking is the thing that is pointless and wrong, NOT saying something about it.
some clients want those apostrophes
The two docs I edit for want those apostrophes there and you can find just as many reference materials that DO include them as don't.

I agree this is nothing that is going to affect patient care, but bottom line - you have to give the client what they want.
One of my jobs says use apostrophes
(They don't follow BOS) and the other says definitely no apostrophes (follow BOS strictly). So I would say it's up to the individual company.
This is not allowed, the usage of all
reference material is allowed, but not asking other people for help with the tests.

Why don't you stay with your employer?
She doesn't know how to use apostrophes. nm

First, why does every little thing have to be discussed with clients, right down to apostrophes?
Second, this is another example of how the BOS has muddied up the waters.  BOS1 said apotrophes, BOS2 says no apostrophes but apostrophes still okay.  What does the BOS3 say?  I have no idea and I don't care.  I say apostrophes because it was apostrophes before there was a BOS.  So what gave the AHDI the authority to change the way it had been done for decades before?
I would imagine they will just start sending usage payments

Do they allow you an expansion program or Autocorrect usage? Old posts say they didn't. nm

With practice and expansion usage, you'll get there! Stop dwelling on the
