She does try to impress everyone. When she has a man come over she gets even louder than usual. I was tempted one day to ask if she'd like me to put out a sign on Main Street to let everyone know and just get it over with already. She has made comments that she would like to be more like I am. I have been divorced for 7 years and am happy about it. I explained to her that I have been at it a lot longer than she has and have come to terms with it. I am much happier divorced than I ever was married. And I don't feel the need to parade men around in order prove something. Good insight--you are right. I know it has a lot to do with her husband not wanting to be married to her anymore. I don't see how he stood it for as long as he did. Lord bless him. I don't think she is on drugs but some days it feels like she will drive me to it.

Does not impress me

and "Don't Impress Much"!

Where is MQQA Trying To Impress Anyone?
I have been reading all the posts and MQQA seems to be very civil and well informed to me.

The ones who are attacking her, on the other hand, are resorting to childishness. I would be ashamed to admit that I had over 20 years in this business and conducted myself in such a manner.

Why are you attacking MQQA? She has said nothing that sounds arrogant or condescendig to me. You, on the other hand....

Agree! When I was recruiting, CMT did not impress me
I strictly went by test scores and experience as usual. It also did not make a difference in the pay rates I offered. In fact, I often offered more to the MTs without CMTs if they did better on the test and had more experience.

Expecially if you can try to impress strangers with a bogus IQ score

and those who don't feel any need to impress anyone because they aren't pathological liars
