i come on here to SEEK ADVICE AND HELP!

but seems that theres few un-willing to do this!
Without being patronizing, (though probably sounding it), but with the benefit of 30 years adult, (ok, I use that term loosely), experience...

That's life son... Not everyone everywhere has your best interests in mind. There are some who are far too tied up in themselves to give a rats arse about you... and there are those that will wait till you ask for help and give you exactly the thing(s) you don't need... Like petrol when you are lying in the gutter on fire...

it was a repeat prescription for me, as i sufferred for a week and thought it would be sensible, however it seemed to die down while my dad was still suffering, so i gave him my medication to help him!

didnt realise taking from the fortunate and giving to the poor was a moral crime!
OK... So, you admit to having taken advantage of a prescription for hay fever, (properly diagnosed or not), and, when it seemed to be ok, you gave it to your father. So, by your own words, you felt you had hay fever. You allowed the RAF to know that. Despite your subsequent good intentions and deeds by giving it to your father, (which could have been a very dangerous thing unless he had previously been prescribed the same medicine), you still made the mistake letting the RAF find out about it. You need to be _very_ careful about the words you use in any and every situation - especially where they are documented... They come back to bite you.

i dont come on here to take a patronisination, or to seek guidence on my computer literacy skills........ i come on here to SEEK ADVICE AND HELP in my career!
I'm in two minds on this. Yes, you need to know and practice proper language... But no, these people who consistently pick people like yourself up on spelling and grammar should probably get a life... Having said that, when hiring, if I find a spelling mistake or grammar mistake in your cover letter or CV you won't get an interview - But I manage computer systems and, if you can't work your spell/grammar checker, you can't manage my systems

You made a mistake, it won't be your last... The sign of an adult is that you can make the mistake and accept the consequences...

you know what, dont bother replying anymore to this post, i dont want to know what you got to say!
All you need to do now is stamp your little feet and I'll be convinced you are a girl... Grow up!

PS: If you are thinking about picking me up on any spellings please, before you pipe up, make sure it isn't the American spelling I used... I've been here 20 years and I'm fed up of having my English underlined by my American computer...
