glad some people have a sense of humor :D
Thanks guys!  I was only being funny and meant no harm
Puzzling? OP did not find this puzzling, found it AMUSING. It is called a *sense of humor*. LOL
.
To the OP: If it were me, I would be glad I found out now
these companies promising the packets were dishonest or not telling the truth, rather than go on and train and spend time working there and finding out they lie and are dishonest. All things happen for a reason and there is a good job just around the corner. One which is true to its word.
Glad you found your fit! I honestly do not see how some people
stay working for some of these idiot companies for so long.  They must have higher tolerance levels than I do!  LOL
Glad you liked. I found it pretty amusing myself.

Oh I see, I'm glad you found a combination that works for you! nm

Glad to hear you have found your "nitch", and
It is so nice to have a place to go where there are others who can understand where you are coming from.  Good luck on your new job!
I am glad you found that, but I live a long way from

Michigan.  I live in Texas.  There is a clinic nearby me hiring MTs to work in house.  I went and interviewed yesterday.  When it came down to me asking her questions I found out that the in-house job was mainly editing speech recognition.  She out sources all the standard transcription work.  She has some ICs at home that do some things to.  I asked her if she was planning to do away with the MTSO and bring all the work in-house and hire locally.  She says her goal is to convert all files to the speech and do away with the MTSO. 


I just wished they would understand it would be better for the economy keep the money here and not outsource to places unknown.  When I worked in-house for a hospital, I referred several friends and family to the doctors I worked for, whom otherwise would have gone elsewhere.   Employees are the best advertisers there are.  Not everyone pays attention to billboards, TV ads, radio ads.  I usually tune it out myself if I am not interested in it.   The local hospitals are more capable of doing things that the locals don't know about so they drive elsewhere.  But I think they all see black and white. 


You are a FUNNY person. I'm glad you found this board!
LOL
Glad I found Oracle and thanks for your response, it is helpful!
Thanks again!
wow, I hadn't heard of anyone getting a pay cut for

I hadn't even thought of that!
I'm going to call her tonight. Thanks.
I hadn't heard of her either ...
I'll try to Google her (gee, that sounds awful LOL). My roomie and I are going to a Joyce Meyer event in June, we can't wait!
Hadn't put it into that perspective but sm
Mr. and Mrs. Cooke were HORRIBLE.

They didn't know even the basic stuff about ranching, even though they were all given instructions/training before they were put on the ranch.

I don't blame the cowboys in the way they left at all.

Mrs. Cooke was the one stirring up trouble, NOT Maura. There was a lot of double talking going on and it wasn't the cowboys. The cowboys worked for them, they weren't their slaves.

So the cowboys didn't round up the goats a couple times. Big whoop. Who in their right mind would leave food and dirty dishes out for EIGHT DAYS after a party??

Horse manure wasn't the only thing attracting the millions of flies. ICK!
Hmm. I hadn't thought about that. Thanks
I can see I need to dig a little deeper as to what I need!
No I hadn't heard of them...sm
The only thing I am familiar with is the Expanders such as Smartype which has a word completion aspect to it. I am not familiar with those you mentioned. Something to look into I guess.
Thanks...I hadn't been hurting for awhile since the
/
Ooooh! I hadn't thought of that!
But unfortunately, nothing anyone says is going to change their ways.
hadn't thought of that either! Good for you! nm

Maybe so. I hadn't heard it in a long time, but

Oh, I hope you''re right. Hadn't heard it yet.
These kind of stories just wrench at my heart.   I think I might have seen that little white dog trying to get on a bus when it was happening.  I hadn't seen the little boy, but that just stayed with me.  I hope they can all be reunited with their families.
Thanks for the reply. I hadn't assumed anything, just asked. nm

No, I hadn't thought of this. How does a person break into this?
Would this be stuff that was done by voice recognition and then needs a human to screen through it?  Do most companies have these types of jobs?
Aw, you don't have to be a "pothead" to smoke pot at one concert. I hadn't smoked for 30
and haven't since, but they passed joints around at that concert and I toked, and it was fun. My brain is far from lame. :)
I hadn't heard about a weight "rule" either...interesting

I can't remember where I heard the 6 month thing at the moment.  I don't know if all the SPCAs are the same, but at this one you can adopt a cat for $50, but that includes at least some shots, "fixing" if you go to one of their participating vets, and a micro chip.


How astute to check the turnover time, hadn't thought
of that. But, you're right, no way that's a coincidence, and your surety on this is confirmation. I'm sorry for you--that's a huge decrease in your lines. Good luck in your search for something better.
Oh Yeah, me too! I love the Queen! I hadn't thought of her, but she'd be great. nm

I guess we'll stay home and eat Ramen. Hadn't though about food going up too.

I think you see the humor
or you wouldn't want to keep communicating with me. I think you love it!
A pregnant women not supposed to eat lobster or shellfish? I hadn't heard this and I was curious

Sense of humor.
I have been in the same situation with doctors not spelling out names, etc. I have just quit a national company and have been wondering what to do next. When I read these postings today, I could not help but laugh. Keep your sense of humor as it helps the rest of us get through our days too.
lol.. thank you for adding humor to my otherwise

you need a sense of humor
Get over your bad self. The woman was having fun with a difficult situation - most psychologists would say that is healthy.

As far as your sour attitude - glad you're not in my church.

People whose English language skills are very poor should not be doing jobs where they have to give "Customer support" or "customer service" to English-speaking customer - period. They need to improve their English skills.

If you went to India, do you think they would give you a job speaking in their dialect? Certainly not. They, and most other countries, will not hire foreigners to do jobs that their own citizens are qualified to do. The U.S. is about the only country that does not protect the jobs of its citizens.
Did you have your sense of humor
!
LOL ! Mustang, here you have your humor...nm

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed.  That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups.  Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge.  Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful.  Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges.  You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy.  You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now.  I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids.  My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play.  Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance.  Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem.  But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life.  Know what I mean?
We got that point the first day on the job. People still need a little humor

not new, just jokin' ....get a sense of humor

I liked it!! good to see positive humor! ..nm

Very funny, I have a sense of humor. nm

Specifically the Good Humor
ice creams bars with the chocolate candy surprise inside! Do they still make them? I may have to chase down an ice cream truck. Oh, do they still make THEM? LOL!
*humor* at the expense of one's sexuality &.NM

Because "Jasper" has a sense of humor
And chooses to take this in stride rather than engaging in the usual 'chicken little' antics usually engaged in on these forums, you choose to construe from that that he/she was an inferior employee?

Now I'M laughing...how very presumptious of you!!!
I think we were all kidding! Sarcasm - dark humor...
nm
Good thing you got a sense of humor about it.

Thanks for "getting it." Some people have no sense of humor.

I've tried to be friendly and have a sense of humor,
so I just quit..and went about doing my job figuring they didn't have time to socialize. They seem all business... even my QA person, very cut and dry. I've tried joking with her with not much response. I wasn't sure what was expected of me in that respect.
OMG! HAHA! Do they have a Humor Board? You could lead it! nm

The Good Humor ice cream truck! They still
sell some of the products in the store, but it is nowhere near as good.  The vanilla ice cream bars covered with toasted almonds!  The half and half popsicles with flavors like rasberry and lime that were SO fruity!  The Good Humor man in his white outfit!  Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!  It was great!
Jeesh right back at ya - it was meant for humor! sm
Forgot there is no humor here, but I do keep trying! I'm a frustrated standup comedian, what can I say. LOL!
The point is the post was a JOKE... a little humor!!!
People do that. And complaining about those that post on the message boards -- is that not the pot calling the kettle black since you apparently enjoy this as you have posted multiple times today? Others here are free to speak/read just as you are. You are also free to hit the red X button on the corner of the screen if you are in any way unhappy about what is posted.
