[Trainer-talk] Outlook.com website and screen reading

Thank you Stephen,

I went to bed last night with this on my mind. It is OK to have thoughts and
opinions; however, as a new member to this list, I do not think it belongs
here.

When I joined this list, I thought it was for the purpose to help one
another and help build us all up, not the opposite. Please reconsider what
you say before you put it in a public forum. It really makes a difference
and you never know who is viewing this list; perhaps someone who may someday
see your application and recall the discussions from these posts.

Michelle

Gentlemen-

Since I know both of you and respect both for what you do and who you are,
lets choose to just delete each others messages please and not start a
battle Royale!

I would encourage that since this is a NFB generated list, I am sure the
moderator Gabe will not tolerate or have a zero tolerance for abusive like
behavior and conduct toward others.

If you feel I am out of line commenting on this topic, feel free to contact
me off list at guerra.stephen.mn at gmail.com

I would encourage not responding which will show me that you both comprehend
fully that this list is for professionals not amateurs who wish to judge and
compare like on a playground.

If you so choose to respond, I would ask that you are polite, respectful of
others, and if you have an issue with another list member, take it up with
the governing body which enables that person to be employed and challenge
their certification.

Mass exodus from a list because of childish behavior is not what we want on
this list.

Thank you.
