Hi Everyone. I've been busy lately on the Accounting boards. Such fun... I've gotten a couple of reddies because I wouldn't do their homework. One actually wrote "This is not telling me the answer." I answered "Of course it isn't" - and then she got a little lecture on why I wouldn't do her homework. Even funnier, she had posted at least 6 questions. CurlyBen merged them all, and her thread became a complete mess. I had to laugh. She got no help at all. Anyway, Unky - I'll go check out your reddie since you balanced one for me. :)

Sunny - I'm not surprised you got sick. There was a lot of stress and emotional upheaval for you in the last week or so between getting the new job and telling your old boss. Hope you feel better soon.

I don't even want to think about the pregnancy questions. I just don't understand these people. Do they think or plan ahead at all?!

Makes you wonder if Chastity belts should be installed at the factory.....and removed only after they pass a test and are legal age....BOTH.

Haha good one smoothy! Lets encourage that. But only if your 16. Maybe 18. He will love you and the baby. He will stand by you and you will have a house with a white picket fence.

Hey JLo. Yes your maybe right. I have been trying to change things around with appointments and stuff to get it all in before I start the new job. I don't care about taking time off here. I don't want to do that as a new employee. I just talked with our lawyer this morning about getting the darn closing done for this house. Driving me nuts!

Aww guys. It wasn't really necessary, but if it can make you happy :)

Woohoo! Exams ended today! :p

Yay Unky! How do you think you did?
I ventured out on those accounting threads when I first started, but it wasn't my cup of tea!

Hope your feeling better today Sunny.

Well, I hope I'll get good marks. I realised I left mistakes here and there and I really hope that they will be small enough. But hey, what is done is done, there's no much use lamenting on this now. Time to look forward and avoid such mistakes in the future! :)

Exactly... thats all the rest of us can do as well. The secret to success is learning from your mistakes and not repeat them.

Hey Smoothy, thanks for the balancer, even if the one who gave me the reddie is not the OP, if I understood your greenie.

Either that, or I'm too tired to understand what you meant XD

Yeah... it was meant to balance the incorrectly given reddie.

Lot of my reddies (at least the more recent ones) are from idiots with few if any posts. Saw your comment... found the reddie and since nobody else balanced it yet I did it for you. Couldn't say anything witty because I've never taken a statistics course. Wasn't part of the Electronic Engineering program I took.

It's okay :)

Most of them don't want to hear the answer they should hear and they are not happy with that and don't face it... -.-

And that attitude is what will hold them back in the future... you have to be able to see and accept as well as acknowledge when you are wrong (everyone is sometimes). At least in cases where there actually is a clear right and wrong answer.

Good morning people. Thank you bella. I am feeling a bit better. I actually took Claritin and that helped better then the cold/flu stuff I was using. I never take medicine. Not sure why I am this time around but I guess it won't kill me.

Wrong? Me? Never I am a woman.

Glad you are feeling better...

You are young... you WILL at some point see someone that is so stubborn they won't admit when they are wrong... even after they realize they are.

That's where the phrase "beating a dead horse" comes from.

88sunflower · Nov 19, 2010, 08:00 AM

Thanks smoothy.

No really I am 37. In reality wrong 80% of the time but love to put up a good fight. I am quite stubborn. It was born in me. The whole family is like that. Not good. I am my own worse enemy most days.

Then learn to tame yourself Sunny ;)

How's everything around here? Anything new?
