Please do not grammar police here...

Many MTs come to this site to relax and may not have the time or desire to proofread their messages.

GRAMMAR POLICE - sm

Having nothing meaningful to contribute, these immature holier-than-thou self-proclaimied experts need to vent their insecurities by finding fault with something as insignificant as spelling/grammar.  Reminds me a lot of a large percentage of QAs -- need to nitpick on something trivial, real or imagined.


I would just tell them to kiss my butt, unless they are also paying my salary - otherwise they should MTOB.

BTW, grammar police are not allowed.
Go back to your corner now.
I don't like spelling police either, but...
she did not use they're correctly: P.S. They don't even advertise anymore on here because of they're reputation.

Should be 'their' reputation...


Spelling police is not necessary here.

No spelling police please
on these boards
we don't do spelling police here. NM
.
are you the spelling police?
so sorry I thought the spelling police were banned from here, guess I was wrong. But I am glad to know you don't ever add an extra letter in a word. Oh I wish I could be perfect.
oops half of them (my own grammar police)
nm
Oops. Meant to say grammar police.
Doesn't anyone ever know how to spell anymore? LOLOL. Sorry just had to get your gote. um er goat.
let moderator know; they will ban the spelling police
nm

Oops. I meant "hear of" Sorry grammar police!

give it a rest who are you the spelling police..nm

Excuse me for typing "have went". I was in a hurry and did not know grammar police would be p

Advise is in SpellCheck. So maybe you should have suggested Proofing Ms Grammar Police.
nm
To the SpellCheck Queen and Grammar Police...Sorry for the errors. I sent it before proofing.
I know it's a MT no-no.
The moderators have already requested that you stop with the grammar police stuff.
This is not the forum for you to try to be queen of QA.  I am not insecure about my grammar skills, but I certainly am not going to get all in a tizzy if I make a mistake while posting on a message board, nor will I get all bent out of shape if I see an error in someone else's post.  This forum is here to network with each other about various companies, hence the name COMPANY board and not GRAMMAR board.
And I see, too, that your grammar is as top notch as your spelling!
HAHAHAHAHA
Applying the right grammar and spelling
should not be an extra effort. But this only if one is good at it.
What logic is this: Today I am tired, so my grammar and spelling are bad.
I can understand: Today I am tired, so I make a lot of typos.

But some will never understand the difference.
Do you only use correct grammar and spelling
when you are paid for it?
Spelling Police is not needed on the MTStars forum.
t
hope your spelling and grammar on work are better than this.
x
YOU call us ANIMALS because we pay attention to correct grammar and spelling?
There is no strong word enough to say what you are.
With such an attitude and work moral you should get out of the MT profession.
Ya, but it's not a spelling error, it's a grammar error!
Get it?
It's grow up, not grow-up. Whose grammar/spelling
are you trying to correct?
I am not the MT police, but sometimes I wish
cute one!
the what police? lol

Ignore them if you can.
I didn't think you were management or brown-nosing, nor did I see anything wrong with your post. I don't think it is old biddies, I think they are extremely young or at least they seem immature to me. They are like little gremlins or something. The very second they see anything positive said or someone asks a question, it seems to irritate them and they crawl out. Couldn't tell you why, but don't worry about it. Everyone that reads these forums are not that way. Hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and I for one am glad to see someone happy with their company.
Ignore this
I have no idea why this double posted, but if someone could delete one, I would be much appreciative!
Ignore them

Oh my gosh just delete them.  That's what I do.  They are not asking you specifically to get on and work so if it's not your shift why are you getting so upset about it?  Use your delete key.


 


I AM SO SORRY... PLEASE JUST IGNORE US...

Have I no shame, you may ask, and rightfully so.  If I were truly of sound mind, that would be a very fair question.  Unfortunately, as I have detailed below, that is, sadly, not the case. 


There is hope, however!  You see, as I was about to fling myself into The Hillbilly Acres Memorial Septic Tank, I was amazingly stopped by the engineer who was, AT THAT VERY MOMENT, servicing said septic tank.  Can we all talk about timing??!!  This kind man informed me that he was looking for an assistant and I was OBVIOUSLY PERFECT FOR THAT JOB!  Of course, I was forced to perform a few acts that were rather displeasing to my various personas (hey, haven't we all been in this position at one or another time in our lives!) to acquire said Asst Septic Tank Engineer job but it is going to be worth it, I know!  Soon I will have money for health insurance and MEDICATION and will never darken your MT doorsteps ever, EVER AGAIN.  I PROMISE!


Now, until then, please, PLEASE, I BEG YOU, IGNORE ANY FURTHER POSTINGS FROM US/ME/IT/WE/ETC.


Thank you in advance for your cooperation with us!


CONSIDER THE COURSE & IGNORE.nm

... and the puncuation police are after you!! nm

POLICE REPORT
Start requesting police reports of this incident...you might need it down the road.
Are you the board police?
x
Police state
Yes, but I'd be much more worried that your government now has all of under just about 24 hour surveillance. THAT's a police state...


That would be grandma police.

What are you, the question police?
People should be able to ask a question at the present time and get answers and not have other people running around the board saying, Google it, or Search the board.

You know, that is really not helpful and quite rude. Everyone already knows that, so if you can't answer the question, why don't you keep your advice (that everyone already knows) to yourself? Okay?

So tired of this attitude.
I ignore verbatim
and use common sense. If it is obviously a woman, ADT screen if you are on DocQScribe will tell you that. The doctors have these degrees but they are not perfect. Nobody is. I have a doctor who does not even know how to count, 1, 2 4, 8, 7, ??? Now I do not type this.

We are smarter than the docs sometime and just forget about verbatim in those situations.

They do not even know how to spell many meds either but you can't go verbatim here either.

You will give good patient care by typing what is right and ignoring the doc.
Ignore the above post. nm

Ignore the troll.

I usually ignore these things too
This report was from a couple days ago, so I don't think things have changed. The format is totally 100% wrong in nearly all fields. The thing is, they let these new MTs off QA in a matter of days. I understand there were many new MTs to check, but I don't understand how something like this got through, especially when one of my reports was reviewed and though there were no errors, I was told to use of between CO2 and the number to avoid confusion. Seems a bit picky when you have something like this report going to the facility. There was no additional sign off on this report and this particular doctor is a very, very good dictator, though uses many uncommon terms that need to be looked up. I don't know, I guess I will hold off a bit for now.
They ignore both IM AND emails sm
Emails are usually ignored.  As for IM, usually ignored also except for 1 person, who is good at answering but she's lower down the pole and isn't the contact person for some of the stuff.  She's the only good one there. 
How about you just don't handle it and ignore it.
sometimes, less is best!

OSi because they ignore me about a secondary
