QA-26 Posted By: Mom_of_3 on 2006-05-19 In Reply to: What? - QA-26 Hmmmm, interesting post. Oh I am far from perfect, and I have thought to myself why did I even comment on that post this morning (the one we are referring to with the childish comment). I think it was because I have made several ~friends~ over the years in my MQ office and to hear someone say they don't have brains, well, I was defending them. For the most part they are getting the raw end of the deal in this MQ mess just like us. I probably shouldn't have made several of the type comments, but for the most part they were a reaction. But, your point is well taken. Now, as far as the e-mails the PS sends. I do understand we are all human and everyone makes mistakes, I know I do; however, it just seems like she is saying the same things over and over again. I feel for her, having to go in and make the same corrections all the time. I do know that capping is considered shouting, but my use was as an emphasis. I only did one word at a time and didn't feel it was really yelling. I will use caution and have already had to figure out other ways to emphasize my thoughts in THIS message. LOL. I'll make a deal with you, I'll quit being judgmental if you will do the same. I really don't feel that my comment that started this (which was intended as trying to get someone to realize that just because they are ~angry~ to not take it out on fellow MQ employees) warranted some of the harshness I have received. You have me feeling pretty low. I actually have been enjoying this message board for a week or 2 and now tonight am wondering if I should even post if I am coming across as negative. I guess I can post but try to mind my own business a little more. Sorry for any misunderstanding of my opinions.
