I can't believe all these cookie cutter trainers are coming out the wood work praising this woman. 

Its a shame that this thread couldn't die like 18 postings ago after I made my statement that she wasn't the aprover of us techs out there who decided that we didn't want to take her little course.

instead of being the bigger professional person she decided to come out and speak her very deffensive piece and now have her following of paper techs and/or trainers come out on her behalf.

I am under the believe that as long as I get newer, better, and larger contracts state after state I know I get the job done.
