is there anyone out there to defend the BOS?

In Reply to: long time MTs opinion on BOS sm - MT 30+ years and running
I'm a relative newbie, so I don't want to weigh in with an opinion as to the good or bad of the BOS. I have it and the samples in the back were quite helpful when I first started.
I worked for a company briefly at the beginning of the year that was all about the BOS. I got dinged for stylistic things often enough that I started to stress about the style of the report to the point where I was making content mistakes. My line count was crap. I don't work there any more.

again I must ask, to whom must one defend where one
 Am I wrong here? As long as it is clean and well kept, who the heck cares if it's a flippin' trailer or a mansion? People can be sooo superficial! Get a grip here. Are we all not adults? I thought this kind of stuff only went on in junior high school!
no...it is you and you alone trying to defend --sm
your rude and evil ways...like I said above...I will give you my email address and you can go one on one with me...but I suspect you are not woman enough. come on...I am ready and waiting....lol.
why in the world would you have to defend
Not to defend someone whose beliefs
I don't agree with (I'm not bashing her, I simply do not share the same religious beliefs -- I am a Christian)....but she is right, Christians have a habit of re-writing these holidays and make them into what they find acceptable. The origin is what matters. It is, in fact, her holiday......something that I for one have no desire to partake.
easy for you to defend those who
take our jobs, until you are the one who gets pink-slipped.
You aren't allowed to defend yourself here. sm
If you do, then you are name-calling, even though you just respond to a simple question. If you quit answering them, maybe they will go away. :) Have a nice day!
You CAN NOT defend your use of the shock collar
THAT's why you may choose not to respond again.
Your "defense" above is stunning. No doubt you love your dog and take good care of him/her. But you ARE still using pain to control your pet when there ARE OTHER METHODS that don't involve pain.
Dismiss our points all you want - at the end of the day you chose to take the easy way out with regard to solving the barking problem.
WE who don't use pain to teach make YOU sick? Give me a royal break.
I posted a simple way to teach your dog not to bark - did you even bother to read it?
I defend her for being out there while you were yoda'd out on the couch laughing at her. :) nm

Mary, don't feel like you need to defend yourself or your questions...
Some people are just plain rude and maybe need a second job to occupy their time instead of lurking on this board waiting to make a nasty comment.
I was surprised when I first saw that too.
I haven't had to defend it, but I totally agree!
In fact, I've even gone so far as to say that the crappy wages are, in part (but ONLY in part, mind you) made up for by the fact that my commute is about 15 feet, my work wardrobe is pajamas, and NO OFFICE POLITICS!
I once heard someone explain the difference between an introvert and an extrovert. The extrovert can only recharge in the company of other people, and the introvert can only recharge alone. Works for me.
And I keep my phone ringer turned off most of the time. Hey, I'm paying for the thing, I will decide when to use it or not!
lucky to live in a trailer park where she has to defend her way of living?
I would pack up and move if I had to defend where I lived and I would not consider myself lucky.
I'll go! I'll go!! I won't take hormones and will be ready to defend your honor :) n/m
