RE: [Histonet] Reliable Histology Team Member to embed and cut for you.
What was the initial purpose for starting the Histonet, I assume it was to offer a forum for Histotech to get assistance with problems they may encounter. It offends me when there are those that feel they can control what is posted, the histonet is for the group not a few individuals. Histocare may be excessive in their postings but if it does not apply to you don't read it. They are no different then the other staffing agencies posting job listing because in turn they are promoting their company. Both provide a service, again if you don't need their service don't read it. However someone may need their services and they should not be excluded. Just my two cents worth! -Original Message- From: histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu [mailto:histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] On Behalf Of Lori Harris Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2012 8:12 AM To: Contact HistoCare; Jay Lundgren Cc: histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: RE: [Histonet] Reliable Histology Team Member to embed and cut for you.

Re: [Histonet] Reliable Histology Team Member to embed and cut for you.
I'm sorry you feel that way but my responses have been respectful and courteous even as I have been attacked for making a service available to those who need it. If my advertising was not of interest to anyone in particular it is easy just to ignore. I'm just not understanding how someone can tear down a person for mentioning an available service and in the course of defending my business I get backlash. I didn't ask to be singled out in a derogatory manner on a public forum. And I should have allowed someone to throw their personal fit at me for the second time whom I had absolutely no ill feelings toward? I just don't get this at all. This could have been handled easily and privately by respectfully being asked if I was aware of the histonet 'custom' of not advertising and that it would be frowned upon since this isn't a forum for commercial interests. I would have relented and moved on.

Re: [Histonet] Reliable Histology Team Member to embed and cut for you.
Kudos to you too for reading the entire message. If you had, you'd see the other person initiated the public belittling. I am not some pushover who won't defend my professionalism when subtly attacked by some closed minded person and his cheerleaders. I didn't ask for this. It was brought to me. Do you think every message you or others send or respond to is important or relevant to every single subscriber? I'll be the first to tell you they aren't, the difference being the other subscribers practice self control and simply ignore topics which don't pertain to their particular need at the time. It takes less effort to delete messages from the list than to respond to something of no value to the subscriber. On Oct 2, 2012, at 9:26 PM, Marc DeCarlo boneima...@gmail.com wrote: Go get em Jay!

Re: [Histonet] Reliable Histology Team Member to embed and cut for you.
Is advertising allowed on Histonet now, or not? When I brought up this issue before, people responded, Oh, if it's just a tech looking for a job once in a while... etc. This is at least the third time this COMPANY has advertised on here. This forum is not meant for marketing. I'm sure all the other staffing agencies would love to advertise on Histonet for free. Could I get the opinion of a moderator? Sincerely, Jay A.
