To re-phrase: The bullies are the big, wealthy

companies going after a non-wealthy employee whom they deem as someone who will be unable to stand up to them. They know this person has no means to pay a big settlement (which they know they're not going to get, anyway). I think they and others just like them are trying to shut up the whistle-blowers who are being exploited by an increasingly dishonest and underhanded industry. (Not unlike what the insurance industry and most of the health care industry have become, these days). If they can shut up the whistle-blowers, they can prevent the truth from getting out to the general public, and can continue with 'business as usual'.

bullies on this forum....they are all over the....sm
boards lately. What gives? Can't anyone on these boards treat anyone with any amount of respect? It's no wonder most of the friendly posters aren't seen here anymore.
No, just 3 bullies on this board who won't let others

Do you know why wealthy get tax advantages?
And by the way, they do pay more in tax dollars than a $40K income ... but percentagewise may not.
Wealthy get tax advantages not just because they are wealthy but because they INVEST in businesses -- businesses that provide job opportunities for the rest of us. They invest in research. They invest in the economy and take great risk with their money.
If the wealthy were not willing to invest, none of us would have any companies to work at. We wouldn't have many of the places we shop and work at.
Think I've found a way to get out of MT and become wealthy. sm
I'm going to start a health care insurance company, charge exhorbitant premiums, and then not pay for anything. Look out Barbados, here I come. 
The wealthy elite are running this country.
And they would prefer that your money be in THEIR pocket. They will share as much as they have to and no more.
Yeah, work ethic! My parents were wealthy
and both inherited big bucks from their parents. My mother never worked a day in her life, including not caring for her kids. My Dad had a nice job. They made me work starting at age 12 to 13 as well. Work ethic? I went from being a kid to having to be an adult at 12. I never did anything fun on the weekends with my peers, like football games, soccer games - I had to work. I worked every day after school, and every weekend. And now I'm still plodding along working in my 50's. My kids don't have to work at 12 and 13. I want them to enjoy life while they can. This old work horse has great ethics, but had no childhood.
I googled name & phrase but may be too old sm
probably old info but may be able to catch up with her LINK click
Oh Good God. It's an ancient phrase that
was based on fact because that was how their culture was. They believed in trading for things, etc. That doesn't make it RACIST. This kind of overreacting to stuff like this is why when something really is racist, we aren't taken seriously about objecting to it.
"Make her an IC" - very telling phrase!
Your phrase expresses precisely the travesty I'm talking about.
What you're saying, in essence, is that they might 'make her start up her own business', because that's what being an IC really is - being in business for yourself.
If I were to knock on your door, grab you in a headlock and tell you that I was forcing you to start up a hot dog vending business, how many nanoseconds would it take you to call the police (and probably the men with a butterfly net, too!)?
This is just disgusting - on about six different levels.
no name, learn this phrase: "Would you like fries with that?" nm
!
"Used to work there" is the operative phrase....they are currently
hiring (again) because they are trying to fill positions for a huge new account starting in 2 weeks.
That "better producer" phrase sounds like -
Moo.
In the MT field, I associate the phrase "Indian-
in which case it's most DEFINITELY apropos.
Racist? Perhaps.
Appropriate to the situation?
ABSOLUTELY !!!!!!!
I liked the phrase "to suffer to work"
I think it pretty much sums up life! But it does also sure sound like we should be being paid for waiting for work to roll in, specifically mentioning a secretary waiting for dictation.
ha!!! I knew it. I QA'd a few reports and every common phrase was wrong.
DISGUSTING!!!!!
Anyone know of a really good online Radiology word/phrase
resource site? TIA.
Anyone familiar with that phrase?? Even looked it up on the WWW but nothing except band names etc..
