  1. I will second that. Last I saw there was a thread started by a newbie intended to aggrevate the "oldies", not vice versa. BUT THAT IS JUST MY VIEW ON WHAT HAPPENED.
  2. Damn! In all my years I have never thought back and wondered "Just what was in cookie monster's pipe?" or "was Big Bird trippin on LSD since he can only see Snuffy?". This is just too much!
  3. :speechlesI don't see how you do it. I think I am made more to push paper than to deal with people. I used to be quiet and reserved and all around nice to everyone. I guess I have gotten to a point in my life that I am not going to put up with peoples crap anymore and just tell you how I feel. May get me in trouble one day! I think I would rather work at a daycare and listen to children cry all day than teach mid adults. :speechles
  4. Well said! Let's face it. We are all adults here and if there are some out there who are walking through RL without ever being offended, then I want your life.....or you just live in a bubble. I say grow up and act your age! if you don't like it, ignore it and get your panties out of a wad.

    Spare the rod, spoil the child. Let me first start by saying there is a fine line between discipline and child abuse. However, a slight swat on the behind can instill fear in my 6 yr old. Second, I find it HORRIBLE that any state would think that it is a political matter how a parent disciplines their child. I think this states politicians have nothing better to do. Just my honest opinion though.
  6. Dang! Atleast say pardon me!

    Thanks. Definately better. Applied for a few jobs. I will wait and see what happens. No biggie! Nothing a nice alcoholic drink couldn't fix. LOL! Hilarious story Laurend. Makes you want to tell him, "Sure sir. I would be happy to do that. Would you also like me to permanently stop the rain and cease all annoying bird chatter since I am obviously Mary freakin' Poppins?"

    Thanks LJM and Laurend. Guess everyone has "those days". That'a what is great about this site. Plenty of support out there no matter the reason. :clap2:
  11. I saw this article the other day and was horrified. Really disturbing. I think Britain should step in for this woman.

    Already looking for a new job. There is only so much pressure you can put on a twig until it snaps.

    :faint:I had a horrible customer at work today and just had to get it off my chest. It began with him requesting a supervisor: me. Next began me trying to explain his account and why what he was asking was impossible and while asking him questions to find out how I COULD help him he begins to tell me I am not a supervisor..blah blah blah :tired You're kidding me right? Like I have nothing better to do than "pretend" I am a supervisor. Me: (politically correct response) Sir, please let's not be disrepectful and keep this professional. I would really like to assist you with your account today. Sir: blah blah %^@#%*^$% blah blah %$@^(@*$% blah blah blah :embarassed: Me: Sir, if you continue with that language I will not be able to assist you today. Sir: blah blah blah I am YOUR boss you F'ING B****! :eek: Me: *click* Said sir then calls back in and speaks to someone and tells them that he knows that "my name" is there and he wants her to tell me I am a STUPID B****. Her(politically correct response): Sir, I cannot do that. It is not appropriate. Sir: Put her on the phone I will tell her myself. Ugh! Who pissed in his cheerios this morning? *****DISCLAIMER: These opinions are mine and mine alone and do not represent anyone else's but my own. ******
  14. Poop? Is that slang for PB? Is it a PB in reverse? :omg:
  15. coconuts? :biggrin1:
  16. :blah: I find that this post being started is just as offensive as a "know it all".
  17. You hit the nail on the head.:devious
  18. Well said. :humble:
  19. Peanuts?
  20. LMAO. Couldn't have thought of a better example myself.
  21. Thanks Chris.
  22. Ranchgirl....I completely understand. I wanted you to be able to get reponses to your question so it would be more suited for a forum about the lapband. This forum is for feedback and questions about this site in general. I hope that you are feeling better and you get all the answers that you need from this site. It's really helpful and holds a wealth of information. Please call your dr. if this persists.
  23. Don't doctors and firefighters work on salary where as a tow trick driver may be in business for himself (he owns his own truck)?
  24. Wasa, Is it possible to start a thread and list those who are patient coordinators? Maybe make it a sticky? IMO patient coordinators should have to identify themselves as such to begin with.
