They have a television set now -
These people have been dependent on the government for so long that they have no clue how to even survive without someone else doing their thinking for them and paying their bills. This is what happens when people are never expected to be responsible for themselves and never even had a need to develop any common sense.
television came on at 4 p.m. with a
test screen that stayed on for 30 minutes, and shut down at 11 p.m. or so. And you had 1 station you could watch.
Gas was 17 cents a gallon, bread 15 cents a loaf. Pop was 6 cans for 25 cents, and 6 candy bars (big ones) for 25 cents. My first car was a brand new Chevy Impala, was $3600, fully loaded.
Learned to type on the old black Royal typewriters, had to use a slide rule for complex calculations in high school and college (no adding machines or calculators for most of us, even at home. Cash registers had the old popup numbers on tags when you pushed in the price. I could walk into the local stores, buy something, and tell them to charge it to my dad, and did not even have to give them his name (nor mine).
and if her mom wasn't on television (sm)
she'd be criticized for NOT being there. So she's damned either way. She needs support, guidance, and prayers. She should not be held responsible for her emotional outbursts. Honey, if my daughter was missing, you'd see a lot worse out of me!
What about live television?

I can advise her from here. Don't go on television and dog the people who are looking for
your daughter and investigating the people who may have seen her last. Wipe off some of the makeup and go grieve. Hire a private investigator. Let your Aruban attorney versed in the laws and possibly with more knowledge of what is going on in the system speak for you. Go help the searchers from Texas. Be more like your ex-husband. Maintain a low profile and quietly go about your business and don't second guess anyone who has more knowledge than you.
Don't watch television, but have music
playing very softly in the background.
Hey RadGuy!!! What happened between them? I don't watch much television.
Wayyyyyy too much garbage on television as it is.
I agree. I only watch network television
in the summer occasionally. That's if there is an episode of Dateline, 20/20, etc. that I am interested in. I have DirectTV, so I usually watch other channels such as Discovery, Discovery Health Channel, Animal Planet, Bravo, etc. And I normally try to find a good movie on one of the movie channels. Network TV usually sucks in the summer.
You can work for home doing editing for television news...?
Would you be interested in that?
My sister was Program Director for a local TV station for several years. Now, while she attends college, she is an Editor for a news organization and works from home.
And its gonna kill you to post on the Company board rather than the main board?

cherrypicking co-worker issue (meant to post it on this board instead of MQ board) sm...
I need opinions please...I work on a very small account with just a handful of ladies. Because of the nature of the software (trying not to get too specific here) we can see who is working online and what reports they are working on in real-time...
We have one cherrypicker on the account. Instead of using FIFO method, she retrieves the reports by author ID - usually picking the better dictators of course. She knows I busted her and she did admit to it in on our work e-mail (not too bright) which I am saving just in case she gets out of hand - so far I'm still able to make money since really most of the dictators aren't bad.
But every night it's starting to wear on me since she's screwing up turnaround time. I don't really want to cause a big uproar being that it is such a small account and I need to work with her almost every night usually one on one.
What would you all do? I want to handle this as delicate and professional as possible because we can't really afford to lose anyone on this account. In other words, I refuse to stoop to her level by cherrypicking right back.
My boss has asked me several times why so-and-so does so much more than I do...I just bite my lip at that point but one of these days I think I might explode and just open up a can of worms....
Definitely one of the other board's people who refer to those on this board as "holy rollers,&
Now go ahead and post your reply - I know you're dyin' to!

Job Board ???
What happened to the Job Board that was at the top of the Job Seeker's Board? I have not been able to find it for several days. HELP!
It has been said MQ has own board here,
nm
new to the board
Just wanted some insight I guess on what the whole field is about, i.e. hospitals versus working at home, etc. I know that sounds broad, but there is so much info on here, it's hard to grasp it all.
On this board is the first I have ever
heard of this ASR. So, everybody will be doing this?
You will never believe it according to this board
but I am out of Amherst. Obviously, if you run out of work, it is not the MTs fault, but if the work is there and you can't be productive, I think there is a problem with the MT. I do run out of work as well, but I have never been on this board complaining about it. I find different times to work when the work is there to get my lines in. It is as simple as that.
See job board
There was a job for veterinary ophthalmology listed on the job board late last week, but I think they required a fair amount of experience...
Welcome to the board! nm

Sorry if on this board you can't say
you've missed people. I will be back on later and I am sure, Happy MQer, one of you will too. I look forward to it! xx oo
Please.. what board are we on?
take it to your cronies.
I have only been on this board
a short time myself when things started to go bad. I feel it is an outlet for me because as I and others have stated MQ does not care and we want to speak to each other in some form.
I am not afraid of taking any leap. I am trying to stay with a company that I have been loyal to because I have been with them so long. I do not enjoy jumping from job to job. I do not like being treated this way and it only happened within the last couple of months.
There are no proper channels at MQ. I have tried, believe me.
I do have control over my life that is for sure and I know when I am being treated unfairly and now is that time. I will be doing something about it; but I need to find that other job. I just can't quit, cannot afford to, and who knows how long it will be before I can get started again all over.
I have 20 years experience and have never been treated like this so it is a bit overwhelming and unbelievable that it is happening. I expected to be with MQ until I retired. No such luck now.
I will be leaving this board soon but when people, not saying you, are nasty and do not understand what is going on it is hard to not respond to them.
Has anyone seen the job board
And if so,why isn't everyone going with them? Sure sounds good.
There's an ad at the top of the job board saying this exactly
But don't know anything about the company.
Go to MQ board.
We have been there and done that. No one, trust me, no one cares. No US, THEM or anyone!
No, this is something different. It's an MT board with MTs
who work different places. It's not a MQ board. Best I can figure it's an MT clique, but I'm not even sure about that. I'm just curious because people seem to be so secretive about it. I used to think they meant MT Daily when they referred to "the other board" but that's not it. They say the board is actually CALLED "the other board."
I cannot tell what board to get on now.
I am totally confused as to what section of the religion board to post on. There is nothing for general Christianity or perhaps Quaker pursuasion, etc.
I also have no idea what I am, liberal or conservative or what. I liked it better when you could have a real discussion. We exchanged ideas. I know sometimes they got out of hand, but I don't like any of these boards now. They are just plain too confusing now.
