.....I guess you really don't have a life...on here all day and now all night...what a

L-O-S-E-R!

You are like Clinton backtracking and qualifying and parsing.  So if you don't want to be like Clinton say what you mean and mean what you say.  You are POd that people in joke or otherwise find fault with MQ.  Be brave and proud enough to say so and go on with your life.  Embarrassed by anonymous posters.  That tops everything! 

BTW, you don't really need to use that shouting font do you? 

I'm only 30, 31 in January.  I'm a single mom.  I was trying to work things out with my ex and of course it didn't.  I guess the online I was hoping was a quick fix, but I do need to get out more and create a life for myself.  I live in Las Vegas and it really is a hard town to meet people here.  I have started working out and things.  We'll see.

He is an old man, and I just don't believe it is worth starting a whole big stink about.  It would be different if you had to bring little children over there, or something like that, but at his age, I would just tell him to "cut it out" or just keep away from him as best you can.  I know I'll get a bashing for this, but..........

You're so right. 

I worked for years in a radiation oncology dept and then surgical oncology for 2 more years and it got so depressing for me...seeing 3 y/o kids with leukemia and all swollen from steroids, was the saddest field I had ever worked in....and then going through ones' family members going through all kinds of treatment(s) as they got elderly.

Very sad, indeed.

But for MT work at home - it's not as depressing, we don't get to *see* the patients, hence it is a little less depressing, in my opinion only.

Be well :)

Further down on this board, someone posted a very rude post that implied that people who didn't think a college degree was important were inferior.  Dano requested that the poster not put people down that way.  So it's very understandable why she would ask this question.

But you already know that, don't you?  You responded to that post by telling her she has issues.

Since you obviously have you own issues concerning your abilities to  understand how this board works, the most current posts are at the top, which means the less current posts are at the bottom, which means she posted her request to stop putting down posters BEFORE she asked the above question.

You're even more rude than the *superior feeling* poster who started all this.

Technical support for just about anything is offshore now.  Call centers are worldwide.  I absolutely refuse to call and speak to someone I can't understand AND expect them to help me.  Dell actually has pretty clear-speaking ESLs and after "the job" is finished, they ask all kinds of questions about their English, knowledge, manner, etc...For once I was impressed.

When I was getting my phone line through Verizon, I had to speak with an ESL and it was a nightmare.  I get very cranky and short with them even though I don't mean to.  If I had the guts to do it, I would demand to speak to an American, but I can't bring myself to do that.

I welcome the disagreement, I know everyone feels differently, BUT I too am entitled to my own opinion, and I simply pointed out a problem that I have seen here, and it's embarassing to ME personally to be "associated" with these negative people. I'm sorry if that offends you so much. Maybe fool was too harsh, maybe I should have said something like childish or bitter, I don't know. I just stated my own opinion, and don't care who agrees with it or who doesn't.

Prior to the onset of presbyopia, my vision was around 20/825. Now, I actually require the use of trifocals ... and even with those I can feel my vision constantly changing every few months (one eye gets a little weaker than the other). 

My first time being a gramma and I got blessed with twin girls who are now at the ripe old age of 17 months and never cease to amaze me.  The great thing about grandkids is you can play with them, spoil them, etc., without ever having to worry about doing anything wrong.  All of the "parental headaches" are up to mommy and daddy. :)

I find that after "all these years," I'm more patient than I was as a young mom.  Too much to worry about then. 

I'm still a mom though.  I have a daughter who is only 10!  Spaced them out a bit toooooo far apart.  (I have 4, ages 23, 20, 15 and 10).  It's sad to say, but I have an easier relationship with my younger 2 as, not only do I know what to expect now, I've mellowed as I'm pushing 50. :)

But grandkids.  Wow!  They really don't expect a whole heck of a lot from you except for hugs and kisses.  I can't wait until the twins get old enough to ask me the questions I can answer with my vast experience over the years.
