Leslie,
The main forum rule is that we must not post the name of the client with the name of the MSC. That would vbe a violation of the Independent Contractor Agreements (ICAs) that we all sign when joining the shopper list of an MSC. I have reviewed all of your posts and see no such violations! In addition, asking someone to name who shops who, even in a PM (Private Message) is also a violation of one's ICA and the cardinal rule that Jacob, who owns the forums, has set down. We can say which MSC's do banks, or fast food, but not which banks or FF. We can discuss a client by name, but never in the same thread where the MSC is named. (Sole exception: if the MSC rep posts and names the client, that thread has been opened by the MSC and it is not a violation for an MSC to name a client. I saw where someone blamed a shopper in a thread about AARP when it was actually the MSC that made the connection open. It is their right (but certainly not in their best interests) to make such a revelation.
Another cardinal rule is: make a positive contribution! On that account,
Canadamommy is the one in violation and I expect the moderators and Jacob will deal with her soon. Unfortunately they may be diverted by holiday/family events. Please do not feel that you are alone. Many of the regular posters who would have joined in being supportive of you are also not very active right now; this is an ordinary holiday lull. I suspect that you will soon start to see CM's posts melt like snow on warm pavement.
You seem to be off to a good start and learning fast. If you read my answers to CM's posts you will see that your questions are not unusual or out of line at all. Please continue to ask questions. And, as you learn more, be sure to start helping other new shoppers. This forum depends on the "pay it forward" principle for its lifeblood.
