I can't believe you find this puzzling
...maybe she WAS pregnant and had a miscarriage. Therefore, she doesn't have any children. Talk about narrow minded.
Sense of humor intact! Sense of hope as well! LOL
Yep, I knew it was advice, and I appreciate ALL points of view as it gives me perspective. 8-) I've been reading the boards for a while now, and I realized that I'd get the good, the bad, and the ugly, and that's okay!
However, I specifically asked for advice about how to do it rather than whether to do it, though, as I've already decided to defy the odds and give it a go. 
Enjoyed the NCLB reference, by the way!
Glad you liked. I found it pretty amusing myself.

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.
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
!
not new, just jokin' ....get a sense of humor
Very funny, I have a sense of humor. 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!!!
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.
glad some people have a sense of humor :D
Thanks guys! I was only being funny and meant no harm
I guess teaching took away your sense of humor
That WAS advice. The MT industry STINKS right now.
i do have a sense of humor and i like clever and witty satire.
i do not like i love lucy or archie bunker (reruns). i love seinfeld. i hate slapstick sight jokes. do not entertain the thought that if someone does not find what you think is funny humerous they are w/o a sense of humor. i just know smarter guys i guess and can't even relate to the joke but if you can.......oh well. i am sure it was in fun and jest and you meant no harm. as i said it only provides insight into the person who finds it humerous as to what a person finds funny.
peace.
Sense of humor, tells you "good job!" on the hard ones... nm
I just wanted to say that I love your sense of humor with the photo you used! LOL nm

It's hilarious! Shows your stellar sense of humor.

I LOVE a woman with a great sense of humor! hahahaha!! nm

Love Johnny Depp too. He has a sense of humor and is a great actor.
Love his movies.
Glad someone found humor in that question because I hadn't....until now)
Hey, I just called PA and found out the truth
I went to the doctor today, they said get on the scales and told them no, do not weigh. You can refuse any and all. That person that has posted this is sicko.
Yeh. I found out words like that are called interjections. sm
I'm trying to find a list of them online. Probably need to go to a site that has a general transcription forum. If anyone knows of one, please let me know. Thanks!
I checked that. I heard it was a "common sense" program, no think? Can't find it.
nm
Difficult to find, haven't found one yet (sm)
but I keep looking
this is amusing....
nm
My goodness, you are amusing. nm
.
Quite amusing, since you work for two companies, you are
a
Huh? Your logic is amusing. She deserves Americans looking for her?
That's just not how its done, as the poster below for eloquently explains!
Pointing out minor errors is not amusing. It is simply rude.
aa
Sheesh. Lighten up. It WAS funny. You don't scan the enitre report, or whatever! It was amusing i
Actually, you don't have to answer that...
The so-called "reality show" is the lowest form of so-called entertainment in recent years
I hate them. They've ruined TV.
I think you see the humor
or you wouldn't want to keep communicating with me. I think you love it!
lol.. thank you for adding humor to my otherwise
nm
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
I liked it!! good to see positive 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
I think we were all kidding! Sarcasm - dark humor...
nm
OMG! HAHA! Do they have a Humor Board? You could lead it! nm
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.
dictation humor - got this from MTSO web site
>>>This is a collective from Medical Interview Records written by various Paramedics, Emergency Room Receptionists, and (We are afraid) a Doctor or two at major Hospitals.<<<

Guess you're not ready for grown up humor then.
My goal is to eventually add commentary and humor/satire/etc...sm
I'm not talented in all those areas and hope to attract other MTs who are. There's no money in it at this point, unfortunately.

Hayseed, you crack me up! I LOVE your posts & your humor!
:)
It's time we all called NJ. I called
They can't provide anything in writing.
Nobody knows anything - keep telling you to call your supervisor.
I smell something worse than New Orleans coming from NJ.
