it was not aimed specifically at the 'appalled' thread.
That's how I understood it.

This is NOT what the moderator was saying in her post
She did not make ANY reference to newbies. You did not get it what the moderator meant with this sentence:
QUOTE: It also means to stop trying to personally address others' posting styles or personalities by calling them out. END QUOTE.
She certainly did NOT talk about newbies.
She was referring to something else, I understood.
Are you trying to 'pick a fight?'
Moderator. I'm speaking of the post a few down.
That says "Decisions about what to pay" and it's reply. Thank you. Apparently, it is contains too much legal jargon for some. Just erase it if you can. Thanks.
it's okay to post company name, per moderator.

MODERATOR - WHY WAS MY POST REMOVED ABOUT WHERE I LIVE
All I stated is that I grew up in the Utica/Rome area, and now it is deleted. Who did I offend????
moderator, can you clarify what we can and can't post about AAMT? sm
I was reply about a course, but then thought it would be deleted. Thanks!
Yes, if you are not addressing this with your

addressing a letter
 I type for an office of 4 surgeons, but have just recently come across a few nurse practitioners that are referring pts to the office. My question is how do I address the letter to them that my docs want to send. In their dictation they are addressing it Dear Dr. so-so, but they do not have PhD's in their credentials so I don't think that this is correct. How do you correctly address this person?
Not specially addressing hurricanes but
If you ask me, the world would be a better place if people were a little MORE judgmental. It's the notion that you can do just about anything without being judged that has gotten us into the mess we have in this country.
Think of this before addressing issue with sister (sm)
Please be careful about making accusations. As a mother, you do trust your son, but, if you have the least bit of suspicion that your son and his mutual friends are also sexually active and drink alcohol when away from home, do not share these accusations concerning your niece with your sister. If you have a close relationship with your niece, talk with her first.
If this is true, encourage your niece to talk with her mother.
I am the Walmart poster and I am addressing that prude
who is going back and forth with you! I have to find an even more funnier list for tomorrow to see if I can get her going again, LOL!!!
Patti...I really wasn't addressing the issue any particular company's employees.....sm
subcontractors, I was addressing the use of the word "help" to describe them. I think that word shows a complete lack of respect to any employee and if I worked for someone who used it when referring to me they wouldn't get any favors. I would do my usual high standard professional work but if an employer shows me lack of respect then I don't respect them enough to give them anything extra.
I'm so sick of broad emails addressing specific problems. sm
My national is notorious for sending out a sweeping email to everybody in the company when there is a specific problem with a specific client, done only by specific MTs. The same MTs keep making the same erros, upsetting the same client, but instead of contacting the offending MTs directly, they just send out a forwarded email to absolutely everyone.
Here's a hint: The MTs making the same mistake over and over and over again AREN'T GETTING THE MESSAGE. They don't think it's them! Pick up the phone, or send a private email citing the specific chart/file and the erorr! Problem solved! The lack of personal attention we're given is sad. No wonder we keep losing clients, they're probably given the same impersonal service. The past 6 months have been the worst, but I am couting the days until the worst supervisor I have ever had finally leaves this joint. 2 days and counting!!!!!
Thank you Moderator. sm
I find it unbelievable that people are posting account names. What happened to the confidentiality agreements they signed with their companies? Bizarre.
thank you, moderator
:)
can the moderator tell me
where it went? Thanks !
Thanks moderator!!! I appreciate you!
Thank you, Moderator
Thank you for allowing the prayer request board on the Gab Board.
Hey Moderator
I won a scavenger hunt. Forgot to put in there that I live in Florida. Thanks again. 
you really should take that up with the moderator. obviously
plenty here have no problem with this board.
Thank you, Moderator!
I certainly would not want to offend anyone, and I appreciate your taking the time to let me know how you feel about this.
By the way, I am very impressed with the job you are doing keeping the board on track and moving it in the right direction. It is like a breath of fresh air!
If at any time you do receive complaints about my avatar, please feel free to contact me and I will do whatever you wish.
Best regards,
Running on MT
2 moderator...
What I am hearing is some want a tranquil place to take a break yet still discuss things pertaining to MT, like a conversation you would have drinking a cup of coffee at Starbucks or Barnes and Noble. I don't think a lot of the opinions going back and forth would sit well in a peaceful environment. They would probably have to call security.
I don't think bringing it up will help the situation but I think that it's the arguments after an opinion is given that the OP is referring to. Can't speak for the OP but ....
maybe a meditation board or quiet room board might help...
moderator
what the heck is going on with the main board? people asking about companies etc?
MODERATOR
It's baaaacccck! Indian post on job board is back!!!!!
MODERATOR!!
Moderator, there is some person posting foul messages.
Never sure about what the moderator will and will
nm
To the moderator - you need to step up
and block this flamer from the board. We come here to chat nicely because we have isolating jobs and don't get out much. There is absolutely no need for someone to make these kind of statements to a mother. If her purpose is just to cause upset, then clearly she has no place here. Do the right thing.
Moderator/Administrator (sm)
I've been trying for weeks to get into chat. No matter what name/password I use, it won't let me in. I tried to reregister and it consistently tells me I'm not using at least six letters in my password even though the ones I've tried are 6 and 9, and then today it finally admitted I already had an account but when I clicked the lost password part it sent me to Error 404. I'm about to give up. Am I not holding my mouth right or something??? Hope you can help and get me into chat again.
oops, sorry moderator
Goldbird Moderator maybe you can help (sm)
I've emailed the administrator twice now and received no response (even gave her a few of the passwords that I know I've used on the internet).  I used to go into chat once in a while to see if anyone was there, but in the past few months I haven't been able to. I tried every password I know I've used and even tried to re-add myself, but it says I'm already in the system (I know that because I used to be able to get into chat). I've asked to have the password sent to me but it's never showed up. How can I get my password sent to me again?
Thank you moderator and poster, much better...nm
nm
how does one get a moderator on this board?
.
moderator question
How do we get tot he Gab board and "funny" board - there is no selection - the only way I was able to get there was through your arrow when you moved it - will there be a selection for that forum on the forum main screen any time soon?
Just curious
admin / moderator
Don't let this thread fall away - move it to the top and lets get everyone to take action - send to news, Glenn Beck at me@glennbeck.com - bombard the media and lets see if we can finally do something. This time it is not just the MT word against others, it is actual video that must be seen by all - Everyone;'s job in jeopardy - not just the MT. Move it to the top. Thanks Hayseed for your post
Thank you, Administrator and Moderator !!!
 And hopefully he has now been blocked. You guys owning and running MTStars are THE_ABSOLUTE_BEST !!!!
question for moderator
 When we post on MTStars, can our employers ever find out who is posting? The reason I ask is because there have been entire pages of posts removed after negative comments have been made about certain companies. One of the companies actually threatened to sue the employee who was badmouthing them, even if what he/she posted was true!
question for moderator
Ah! That makes sense! Thanks, Goldbird.
To New Admin---you NEED a moderator
on the MQ board....the resident troll is back and as annoying as ever. While we hate the overzealous banning....please, please, please remove the troll. Disagreeing and trolling are way different, and the trolls DO need to be banned.
Owner/Moderator
Will you PLEASE address this issue? I don't want to hear you tell me you are trying to get things together since you claim to have been the web developer for some years. If you want people to trust you, do the right and LEGAL thing and take action. Cutesy little picture of the 2 of you ... wonder what else was cooking that night?
Attention Moderator
Kindly delete any of my posts that you feel the urge to edit. I would rather you delete than skew the content and purpose of my communication caused by your editing. Of course, it is not necessary for me to participate on these forums at all.
To Cher / Moderator
I just explained to you that I n e v e r sent her an email. I n e v e r do this. Why should I ?
I post all my comments on the board.
Moderator, what's going on with this forum?
It's often down lately and I haven't been able to access it for a day or so. Just wondering what the problem is?
MODERATOR-Whatcha think????
Can we do it? I think it would be great to have support from fellow MTs. We all listen to reports all day about people who need to get healthier, we need to hold ourselves to that too!
Try reporting it to the moderator.
I just sent one - I don't know if this is just some way to send viruses or what, but is certainly illegal.
Not the moderator, but people are not

Moderator still alive?
Indians wanting jobs on job seeker board too.
MODERATOR could we have a msg board just
I started using this board about 10 years ago, then quit for about 9, and just started using it again this year. I remember being on the board the day a poster asked if we could have a separate board just for MQ. We did, but now after coming back after 9 years, not much has changed on here....except we that are jobs are changing. It would be a nice to have a place to share experiences.
In general
All caps and no abbreviations. Headings for PE and ROS underneath. Account specifics may differ.
In General....
An employer cannot set a specific schedule for an IC. This link addresses the issue here :
http://ohioline.osu.edu/cd-fact/1179.html
An excerpt fron the site above notes :
"According to the IRS, workers are employees if they must comply with the employer's instructions about their work, receive training or direction from the employer, provide services that integrate into the employer's business, render their services personally (can't subcontract), have a continuing working relationship with the employer, must follow set hours of work, work full-time for the employer..."
As is noted in the site linked above , the consequences for the employer are quite severe if the IRS determines that the company actually was treating you as an employee rather than an IC.
In general,
in a given occupational group the upward pressure that unions place on wages and benefits has the net effect of raising the income and standard of living of poor folk up to the level of middle class folk while the absence of unions tends to drag the income and standard of living of middle class folk down to the level of poor folk. That upward pressure on wages and benefits not only helps union members but everybody else working in that occupational group. Without the organized upward pressure, wages will sink like a rock.
Moderator, is there any way that there could be 2 job posting boards? sm
one for at-home positions and one for in-office positions or at least ask them to state which position it is for? I see a lot of hospitals advertising on there but not many of them even state whether it is in-house or at-home positions. it would save a lot of wasted time on our part and there part if we knew this detail before we decided to apply, etc.
Moderator and everybody else, my apology was DELETED. sm
I had wrote an apology for coming across so nasty earlier and I am sure that the gals that were involved in this post read it before somebody deleted it and decided to give me a warning.
