Chase1,


So I'm not entirely sure why you and I seemed to start off on the wrong foot...but I do not wish for it to be that way. Looking back, I realized I had been quite a bitch (if I may say so) to you and I'm honestly not sure why. As I'm sure you have read, I was going through some tough stuff at the time, though that is no excuse for the things I have said to you, especially considering you are a ranking officer and a head moderator of my favorite web site. Though it may not seem like it, I do respect you and greatly appriciate everything that you do for this web site, the people on it, and the people in your community. You are a great deal of help to people on here and deserve more recognition then you get, and you especially did not deserve everyone (mostly me) jumping down your throat a few weeks ago. This is an amazing web site, and I honestly like the new changes better than the way the site was before! I'm sure it takes a great deal of work to keep this web site running as smoothly as it does.


I would just like to apologize for my inappropriate remarks and hope that if there were ever any questions that I might have in my training, I would be able to come to you for help and advice. I truly am sorry for the way I behaved and I wish you knew how that is completely out of character for me to behave in such a way (especially to an elder and ranking officer). I have nothing but the utmost respect for the people in the military and the service personnel and would be honored to someday call you brother. I just hope that when I become a firefighter, I will be as strong (in mind, body, and spirit) as all of you are!

Thank you Chels, that means alot. I hate having any issue with anyone (other than the occassional jerk who comes on here just to make trouble).   


I appreciate the fact that you made this public effort to apologize and point this out. It took guts and maturity to do so. I have nothing against you at all. I hope all is well and better in your life than before, and feel free to contact me for anything anytime. I would be happy to help in any way I can. (That is after all, how we started when you joined).   Thanks again.   HUGS.

Thanks Jeff, that had been bothering me for a little while with what I said to you, and I feel much better now that I got it off my chest.


LMAO, after all that...I did forget that this is how we started out when I joined! And I agree with what you said about taking these "mistakes" and making them into lessons....I may get pissed or embarrassed or what not, but it knocked me down a few pegs, back to where I should be! (At the very bottom of the totum pole, where newbs belong! LOL)


HUGS back!

Hey!  I've been nice lately!  Well, maybe just here.


 


That's what I like about this site.  Professionals acting professional.
