That is despicable Mark. I hope you can find the culprit and make it known to the powers that be that you are behaving properly. ::)

Oh Mark that's not good, hope you find out who this trouble maker is.

My supervisor wont say and I'm sure he must have gone to the store manager or assistant manager. Should I go to the manager?

Hi Mark,
your company must have a complaints procedure. Try this first (in writing) or else you will be accused of flaunting the rules. I know it takes time but if you want to stay with that outfit, it might be worth sticking to the proscribed process - unless you know someone you can trust ??? ??? ???
By the way, are you as handsome as you look in your picture?? :D

It is why the SRGC site is targeted by spammers....( who take a good proportion of my time to keep at bay).... we are a site with very heavy traffic and terrific 'google' ratings so those lowlifes want to cash in on our success.
 

Hi Maggi,
I can appreciate that you spend a lot of time zapping the SPAM. It's difficult to imagine how much there is when you don't see it. Work done quietly is hardly ever not noticed.  Please blow your horn from time to time. It reminds us why we think you are rather special and how much we do appreciate the way run this ship. :) :) :) :) :)

Maren Mark is as handsome as his picture shows, no airbrushing there. Looks and a nice personality as well. Maybe Mark there is your problem, somebody is probally jealous.
Hope you get it sorted out I worked with someone for fifteen years and from day one they never liked me. I didn't care as I worked with twenty three men and got on great with them all. Forgot to mention she was female.

Maren, you are most kind to appreciate the work put in to keep the forum going, thank you!  I do know that my efforts are recognised and appreciated by the Forumists...( and the Lurkers!) and it is my belief that the website and Forum are so important in keeping members of the Club connected in a positive way and allowing a wide dissemination of our shared enthusiasm for plants that make every effort on the part of your SRGC WebTeam to be worth gold and diamonds in support for the SRGC.

Of course, Maggi, take your pick.

Anthony,

That's a new spin on trying to get people to hand you jewels...... tell them you're wanting it for Cypripedium potting.  ;D ;D

Mark,

I hope you sort it out.  You definitely need to follow it up, if it going to affect you in the future.  Don't let the mongrel get away with it. >:(
Cheers.

Anthony, 'fraid all used up. Now if you were to buy a potted cypripedium at my next show, who knows what you could find ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

Maggi is like a big diamond, she sparkles all the time.

Hope everyone has a great time at the discussion weekend, next time I am just going to go even if it is by myself.  :'(Hope to see loads of pictures.

I have come to the stage of life that l would prefer a cypripedium rather than a diamond.

Hi Angie,
I've never been at the stage when I wanted a diamond. In a ring they ladder your tights and on a bracelet, they scratch your desk as you move your mouse. Give me a cypripedium any time. ;D ;D ;D
