Come Back AB Editor

[tetherend]

Pujasree (job & careers) is posting one question after the other on the same thing, a couple of them slightly different.  Either her computer is not working properly or she can't read.  I don't know if she's posted any earlier questions the same, but there's been a host of questions asking the same thing.  Is she not shown possible answers to her questions before she posts????????

people who can't read are just as entitled to post as people who overdo the question marks. Cyberspace is a big place, the site will cope. Pujasree just hasn't realised she can post answers herself rather than new questions each time; but let's be patient.

Glad that cyberspace can cope with my question marks, my daughter, who is Cabin Crew, get's tired of that sexist, no longer used term of air hostess.

Just as I, tetherend, get (he gets, she gets, one gets) tired of onerous apostrophes appearing all over the shop!!! :p  I'm only kidding, don't get mad at me! 

You guys may have noticed that I've tried to explain to Pujasree how the site works, but she (I'm presuming the user is female) hasn't got back to me on it.  I tried to be nice and friendly, despite being irritated by her rude most recent question.  I suppose we have to give her the benefit of the doubt until she learns the way the site works.  I just hope she bothers to be grateful for our attempts to help!

pish and tush, she wasn't rude at all, merely asked for a straight answer to her question. Indeed, her manner of studied calm suggests she will make an excellent Cabin Crewperson. She might even consider training as a pilotperson.

Either way, I reacted calmly, for once, and offered what I thought was sound advice.  If anyone thinks my advice was poor, by all means use pujsaree's thread to correct me.  It's important that new users learnt the best way to get the most from the site.  :-D

acw judging by the way the question was written it looks like English is not Pujasree's first language and she's new so I'm sure she meant no harm....anyway, is that cake baked yet ?

[acw]

Oh, I know she meant no harm.  :-) I have indeed made a lovely pineapple pullover.  If you'd like to come over for a slice of cake, you are most welcome.  Just ask the cabbie to take you to "Anna's Flat, Manchester" :-)

acw I tried that the other day, the taxi driver dropped me off, I chapped on the door and some Russian girl answered. Turns out her name was Anna Svlatmanczesta.

[acw]

Oh dear!  And all the cake's gone now.  Lucky that JNO's today's baker! :-)

Ed - please come back and sort out the boring boring tired old "multiple user" accusations.  THey're SO dull and they just create a REALLY bad "vibe"/atmosphere on the site.  If there are people who have multiple usernames - good luck catching them.  I don't envy you your job at all!!!

Also - please could you come back with your lovely pink boxes and restore some lighthearted humour.  I just got yelled at in one post for admitting to being wrong!!  We need you to lighten us up again!!! :-D COME BAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!

[smudge]

I wouldn't worry about it AB obviously aren't!
