No pity party here

Thanks. You wouldn't know this and I'm sure you don't give two hoots, but, yes, I absolutely did start looking as soon as I realized I was in trouble, as you put it.

You don't know anything about it, and, honestly, I've had it with your posts. I won't say you're mean, because you seem to actually like being called mean. So I won't say that, don't want to give you the satisfaction.

I just think it's time for you to shut the pie hole now.

Karma is a complete and total you-know-what, and you've more than earned your share of it coming right back to you just by posting the kinds of things you have to me and other posters.

So when that special time comes for you, you'll get the emotional support you need here, undoubtedly, because that's how the REST of us are here. But keep in mind, there just may be a few who haven't walked in your shoes yet who will say the same things to you that you have to others.

Just remember that what goes around, comes around, and you've certainly earned your comeuppance....some day, some how, somewhere.

Maybe it won't have anything to do with MT, who knows, but whatever it is, baby, you've sure earned it....

pity party
Bummer. I sent my resume to KS and filled out the email questionnaire. They confirmed they received it. It's been over 2 weeks and nothing. I've got the experience and talent, but I guess I just have bad timing. I was really looking forward to moving on and they were my first choice. Oh well - c'est LA vie. I just wanted to feel sorry for myself for a while. Thanks friends, for letting me whine.

Who said the OP wanted a pity party?
aa

I don't see anyone asking for a pity party. I make way more
Leave the OP alone. She's only venting. You've said your peace, she posted an update, so why do you keep posting over and over the same insulting, degrading posts to her? Sheesh, what a sad, sorry, cranky, miserable person you appear to be!

To the OP, good luck to you! :)

You wanted attention and a pity party.

You got it from the other posters, but I'm the bully. Okay.... I'm being called grinch and bully, but I'm not the nasty one here????

Some people just don't want to be helped, they want a handout!

I have compassion, which is different from pity. Pity
x

Oh for pity's sake
There are tons of companies out there not on the board at all - I know because I work for two of them and never see anything negative at all about them. Did it occur to you the one's you see here over and over probably deserve much of the criticism?

So is Warminster. Pity some but not all there. They never worked for the MT at all.
:

I have no pity. Try being a single mom with two little kids!
.

They are a third party
that tries to save companies out there money. They have yet another company that does audits to really tighten the pursestrings. You go to their web site to get your line count. You get what you get, whether its fair or not.

hold up on that party

you may need it later.

Can't say how I know..third party source..
but I just looked at their site and I don't see where it says they don't offshore work...they do. Yes, they are US based but they do send work offshore.

Where I work, they had a party and
had door prizes which were envelopes with different amts of money and you picked one. For those not there, they put everyone else's name in a hat and drew for the envelopes left.

I think it must be getting to be PARTY TIME at these companies right now..nm

I think that may be one reason for the slow response from companies right now.

wrong party.. this was to Anna

Ha � wouldn't I love that. There'd be a big party at my place this weekend! :-) nm

Most contracts said either party can quit or fire at any time. Would be unusual to get locked into
