  • Hi

    I know this won't be popular but I just want to get it out there.

    Whilst I totally support emmap's idea of approaching the forum team (:A) and it has really lifted the thread to see all the support for fc (:j) , I really don't think we should be approaching the forum team at this point.

    We have always gone down the route of self-policing, trying to ensure minimum attention from MSE towers, so that we can continue here uninterrupted. Same principle as flying below the radar in A or T :D

    It looks as though we are already firmly on their radar with lots and lots of posts being reported and it sounds like a number of the thread members having recently has warnings :( Not sure it is a good idea to raise our profile further and in any event I am pretty sure the issue would need to be raised by one of those directly affected for the team to review it?

    We have been here before, it is horrible, but it will settle down and hopefully more quickly if we all step back and carry on as usual.

    :o:o:o

    Hi RN
    Hope it's ok to jump in as not been back on here for long.

    I see 2 ways of looking at this, ignore it as you say and hope the reporter gets bored. Downside is that mse towers are given very negative view of thread and the Elite. Unless they actually check the thread how would they know any different - this involves work on their part.

    The other is to follow Emma's plan and send single, supportive email. Less work for mse towers to see thread isn't negative or a concern. Downside is we are on mse radar again.

    Either way, we are on the radar and I think we should try to give mse towers a positive view of us.

    Morning gang
    not been on for a while as DD2 is having probs at the T she works at and is now on sick leave while we try to sort something out :(
    They were making her work till midnight and then getting her in at 5am to cash up from the night shift, she is only 19 and they were promising her the earth but using her......
    anyways, she has decided to go for teacher training and applied for a teaching assistant course, she is a clever girl with good grades but didnt want to go to uni as she has just done a two year course (equivalent to 2 or 3 A levels) which should lead her in to this sort of thing....
    She applied for a job via a local paper and just got a call from a training academy, they say they are a government backed company and that she needs a special diploma before she can work.
    They are called DYP recruitment and they were trying to get her to pay them £295 for an online diploma......luckily I came in just in time........they have sent several links to her email and keep calling her back.
    I know it must be a scam as I have never heard of this diploma and who ever heard of learning to teach on an interactive course ??
    Has anyone else had experience of this, and what shall she do to get on a course ?
    I just rang the jobcentre and they had no idea how to do anything like this, they gave me connexions numbers but one is a dead line and the other just rings and rings...
    I wouldn't be so worried but she is already feeling low and has been sent on a course to help her self esteem by the doc.
    I know you clever lot have vast life experience and could guide us xxx
