Be sure to make the physical therapy appointment to help with the shoulder injuries that come from patting oneself on the back.
Ain't it the truth?

Fist off, wasn’t my inquiry. I never put anybody in that position and certainly never participated in the practice. This thread went on for days with people like yourself stating in black and white, repetitively that your fees payed for them, CW and rec center employees allow it , its only a coffee cup or mattress tag etc. I cautioned you specifically to get off your high horse and stop referencing them...even generally. Are you serious in thinking that TV management and employees don’t read this crap? Was only a matter of time before someone got clarification . Next time just think something stupid without posting it!

Go back and re read your posts on this topic....and mine. It’s your practice and you went all in on who allowed it. The ‘dry snitch’ comment that I attributed to you is in its rightful place. The poster that followed up on it is unknown to me and I don’t control this play pen. At least you got to drop some useless memes in the process since and in place of any original or logical thoughts on your own. Now do what you do best and notify the feelings police so I get yet another infraction at your request!

Since when is correcting misinformation with facts a problem?

When there was no misinformation to correct. When going out of your way to escalate the issue could affect the employment of individuals who were likely giving what they believed to be correct information. When the result is the end of a courtesy that was helping some and hurting no one.

I don't agree. If the employees were providing incorrect information, that is the definition of misinformation. I don't think clarifying the policy will result in anyone losing their job.

Interesting how you and the other refuse to accept that your posts were dug in and named departments and by doing so exposed them to all of it by doing so. I was the only one telling you to just walk away from it. As the documentation guy....re read your posts as well. Address me....don’t not lump me in to what others do/post.

Your double negative is difficult to read and I don't believe you meant it the way it actually reads. (though you are responding to a post that does not refer to you so maybe the double negative was intentional)

If you read my posts carefully you will see that I exposed no one.

Individually...no. As stated by you and others multiple times, by department....absolutely you did. People will not walk away from a bad point, position or advice on here. In my short tenure, maybe that includes myself at times. Not on this one though, I tried to coax some into saying less.

I never said "my fees paid for anything"...

But I did say that both the rec center employees and Community Watch said it was fine...

And yes, I thing that TV management has better things to do than "read this crap"...

It wasn't until a "snitch" (your words, not mine) contacted them did they give an opinion on the matter.

And now, they want names of rec centers and employees... Good job!

I have waaaay more infractions and "vacations" than you, so spare me the "feelings" BS...

Last I checked, they don't tell you who reported a post...
