PJ2067,

"Opinion" does not insinuate you hotstamp!  i was really just saying everyone is entitled to their opinion and you shouldn't take it so personal, my mistake if you aren't taking it as personal as it appears.

Again, I may not always agree with peoples opinions, but I will defend to the end their right to have them.
I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter.

I capped those words to bring attention to them. i am not one of those goobers who think caps lock is yelling as I live in real world not fantasy land.  Actually it is a fine place to work.  Posting with a fake e-mail address is cowardly, and I stand by my original statement.

 I know this guy is just mad about something. You cannot maintain an ISO17025 accreditation without having your standards calibrated. I don't buy that. I know of some of the techs that work for MPC and they are good people with integrity. There are bad apples everywhere and to blame a whole company for some actions of a few is not right. I can also understand Paul's frustration and why he would use uppercase letters to make a point. The original poster may not realize , but attacking a company as a whole is attacking every tech individually. I know people that have worked with Paul and Jason in the past and they say nothing but good things about the both of them. It sounds like to me that it is a good thing that MPC no longer employs the original poster.

    Gotta agree with you.....If in fact thing's were that bad what did the individual do to make things better? I did work for a company that employed both Jason and Paul and they are both sound tech's with integrity. I have learned in situations like this the best thing to do is move on. I think that Paul has every right to be angry as the remarks do reflect on him as a technician working for MPC.

    Maybe the poster is in hiding with the cowardly legislators from Wisconsin who've abandonded their jobs.

    My now sainted father, who was very low key, when my sister and I would be visiting for Christmas (and so forth) used to make some snide comment while my sister and I were present.  That would get us debating what ever the topic was.  He wouldn't say another word; just grin and enjoy the entertainment as my sister and I would debate of what ever topic he had lured us into.

    Maybe it was something like that.

    You could not be any more wrong, my friend.   Allow me to enlighten you.   

    1.   You cannot maintain an ISO17025 accreditation without having your standards calibrated:

          I've seen this done, time and time again, with a company you are personal very familiar with.   Have you ever heard of "faxing" over a standard from another lab?  Yes, it's when you "borrow" the id number from another lab to place on the cert.   Let's just hope, while we're still all making money, that NIST does not decide to make UPS traceable.  LMAO.

    2.  I know of some of the techs that work for MPC and they are good people with integrity.  The original poster may not realize , but attacking a company as a whole is attacking every tech individually.   

         I'm sure that the company has decent people.   I was hired, then left, then hired, then left, then hired, then left, 5, . . . . . .  yes 5 different companies before I realized that if you're making money doing calibration, then you're doing it wrong.   I hear the same stories from many friends who work for many other companies.   I'm not saying the whole lot is corrupt, but don't pretend that there is not a major problem with calibration and it is being made a joke, ESPECIALLY in the commercial sector.

        Just because someone says something about a company, does not mean they are speaking of every person in that company.   Through anger, they may have expressed a fallacy, at best, but don't try to censor people by swaying their intentions.

        This is the same argument you hear from when, . . .   someone opposes a war, and so Jim Bob who has a nephew in the military takes personal offense, just because he has some tie to the subject, therefore censoring the person who is talking about an ideal, and not the individual soldier.   It is this line of thinking that takes the freedom of speech away.

         One more thing before you reply, if you even do.   Don't think I won't call out particuliar companies, because I will.  Be careful in the crafting of your words before you fire back, because, my friend, there is a thick line between slander and fraud.

    Also, to piggy back off my own reply,

    The OP should have been a bit more tactful in the way he explained his situation, and yes, he should not have placed the whole company on the stand.   I have met many who've never had the pleasure of working for a company that does the things in which the OP claimed, and they would see his ranting as just that. . . .  ranting.

    The truth of the matter is that I did not know how the real world worked, and how far corruption ran through our career field.   It is for this reason that I would be more than happy to inform people, through PM of course, which companies they should avoid like the plague.   I also have documents as well as past testimonies from past employees to back up my claim, not just from the branches I've worked from, but the other branches as well.

    I didn't have anyone to take me under their wing and say, " don't work for this company, because of blah, blah, blah. "  Had I known, I could have saved 5 years of my life barely hanging onto what seemed like a failed career.   I"m in a great position now, with a great company, so. . . 

    Feel free to ask me which companies you should avoid.   I'll be honest with you but only in PM's, as I wouldn't want my opinions to bring out the people who seem angry at this topic, those of whom, are the ones trying to justify their own actions to help themselves sleep at night.   :-D

    One more thing, feel free to ask me what airlines you should avoid as well.
