I need help finding a template that I can use for a discussion regarding
communication issues with another employee I work along side. Any help would
be much appreciated
 
I am considered a 'new hire' and I would like to ultimately provide this
collegue with a solution to a problem that I consider a uncondusive and
unacceptable nature. At the same time politically correct in case human
resources is to be involved.
 
How can a template possibly do any of that? You're going to have to find
your own words to solve this problem.
 
If you are a new hire, you might do well to keep your mouth shut for a
while.

Suzanne, that might be what you people over in Alabama might do, but that's
not what we do here in California.

You wouldn't survive a day here.

Best Wishes, hope your silence doesn't equal an unpleasant life. (oops,
looks like that already happened)
 
Yeah, well, chill out.

But here's the answer--this newsgroup is designed to advise on technical
aspects of using Word, not on the content of Word documents (despite
occasional stretches). You need to ask for suggestions somewhere else.
Google might turn up some career advice sites.

Jezebel was just messing with you by asking for more information, I'm
guessing because she was astonished that anybody would trust a computer
program or a computer company to advise them on delicate negotiations
involving relationships with co-workers, and that anybody would think there
might be a standard formula (which is essentially what a template is) to
resolve a situation that is obviously dependent on the particular culture of
the company and personalities involved.
 
Ms. Mitchell -

My question was of a serious manner. I didn't expect by registering with
this discussion group I would incurr such non sense.

I don't have time to 'mess with people', per your wording. I thought this
was a serious discussion group, where I could find answers. And to my
astonishment, I have not. I can't beleive that I have spent time responding
to any of these comments.

But I will mention to you that there IS a standard formula to rectify
situations such as these. It's to follow guidelines (and we all know by
common sense telling us that every situation is different) and you would have
to treat every situation differently. Because there are now laws and
regulatory issues that can be brought up. I like to be politically correct
when dealing with instances such as the one I have already handled no thanks
to this website.

It's my misunderstanding that this had to be so remedial as far as
explaining every single little inditement.

I'm glad I don't work along side you or 'jezebell'. I think you can verify
why I would think that.




Not only have I seen templates such as the one I am looking for, but have
used them along side huge corporate CEO's. I am surprised how much time
everybody has on their hands to

You might find one you use search through the business templates.

Don't take everything that is said in these groups so serious because you
will find some discussions will upset you or make you laugh but you still
will get helpful info 95% of the time. Remember this is mostly volunteers
responding to questions and every so often you will see people from MS
answer questions.

Paul,

Thank you. I appreciate your time.

One advantage of being self-employed is that I don't have to put up with
mouthy new hires. <g> And my life so far (which I expect to be 2/3 of it or
so) has been mostly pleasant. If denigrating where other people live is your
idea of how to solicit help, then I can understand why you're having
"issues" with a co-worker.

More seriously, though, as Daiya wasted her breath trying to explain to you,
your understanding of what a "template" in Word is has led you astray. A
Word template provides formatting for pages and paragraphs. It does not
provide content. You are looking for "guidelines" and "procedures" and a
"formula," none of which is it the responsibility or purpose of Word or
Microsoft or the fellow users here to provide. If you had spent as much time
using Google to search for what you want (provided you could come up with
appropriate search terms) as you have spent being rude in this NG,
presumably you would have an answer already.

I cannot beleive as old as you are, you are still continuing this debate
over a question that couldve been simply handled as Paul handled it.

I blame it on location. You people over there are just downright unhappy.

One would think you had too much time on your hands, are you really self
employed? By the sounds of it , your business isn't taking too much of your
time considering all the effort you put into this website. Can't blame you
for trying to get some excitement in your life.

This is probably taking the conversation a little far, but, you and the two
other woman are what's keeping women repressed. Too much chit chat, not
enough mind work. Its sad to see this happening because I know there's a lot
better than you out there. I know there is. This is the exact reason why
men make more money than women do in the work place.

Shame on all of you. (except Paul)
 
You still don't get it, do you? You asked a question in an inappropriate
forum and then insulted all the people who were trying to suggest more
appropriate places to look. I sure hope that the title "concierge" doesn't
mean that you have a job dealing with the public!

YOU KNOW WHAT SUZANNE, I DO GET IT!! I get the fact that your fat ass
doesn't know how to shut up. No one on this forum suggested anything but
their obnoxious and humorless thoughts. If you learn anything from this
conversation, please let it be the fact that you can't nor will you ever make
as much money as I do. I can guarantee you this much. And that's all that
matters at the end of the day. Not the fact that you don't know when or how
to shut up.

Cheers to you Suzanne, looks like you won the prize for most obnoxious.

So glad I don't have you as a collegue. It's funny because the situation
has totally taken a turn around and my whole office has seen you and everyone
else that replied to this question make themselves look like fools. Not that
it takes much doing.

If the question was asked in an inappropriate forum, the adult decision to
me, would have been to direct that person in a tactful, yet helpful way.
Shows no class, because you haven't any.

Cheers.

Stop top posting you ****ing idiot.

This is Usenet or a Newsgroup NOT a website. Google for the difference
between the two.

Suzanne and some of the others here are Volunteer MVP's. They remain
cordial.
http://word.mvps.org

They cannot tell you to **** off or kiss my ass as I may :-))
They cannot also tell your a ****ing idiot for expecting Word to have the
capability to do everything from changing your baby's diapers to shingling
your roof and what ever Onanistic thoughts you may have in between.

I suppose my attitude wouldn't survive in the wide-open-west either ;-)
 
p.s. no one cares to see your title. Actually makes your employer look as
though they hire people who really don't care about themselves enough to be
considerate and motivative. You should be fired.
 
lostinspace,

Here, Here!! As a Sailor I would never use such language (outside the
bar room or barracks, of course) but when you are calling an idiot an
idiot sometimes it can't be said any better.

Mr. Highpockets told use several hours ago that he was going away.
Maybe we'll all be lucky and he won't come back. I hope so, but then
he won't see your fine post. Darn ;-)
 
What an obnoxious little fart you are. No wonder your co-workers have
trouhble with you. And no wonder you have so much experience as a "new
hire" --- better get used to it. With this peurile attitude you'll never
become an old hand.
 
And since his attitude is that money is "all that matters," I'm sure that he
is a perfect fit for a public-service job.

I'm not seeing a post from lostinspace (and unfortunately you didn't quote
it). Is it one of those that the server ate?
