What is the 10 step program?

Good Question.  Some will argue 9 steps and others will say 11  steps.
What is more important is the proper documentation of your efforts at/after  
each step.
Some do so well at the 1st step... there is no 2nd step, as the  
problem/project is resolved.
Well structured companies that insulate themselves thru several degrees of  
separation will always ask you if you followed their formal procedures for  
complaints and suggestions.
Those advocate organizations that file complains on behalf of their members  
or clients are well knowledged in those 10 steps. By the time they show up for 
a  sit down with corporate management with document file several inches thick 
to  collaborate their constructive efforts.  Keep in mind that the higher in  
corporate management it takes to resolve problems/projects, the more it will  
cost to close the file and Quash further action.
If you think you have a problem/project, remember that you are probably not  
the only one.  And there is strength in numbers.  Several head are  better 
than one.
Keep in mind, its like taking something back to the store for a refund and  
not having the original receipt.
Oops, maybe that was 13.  (lol)
Best Wishes

[QUAD-L] Wheelchair Monologue- 10 steps to resolving

2008-04-30 Thread wheelchair
I know you don't wish to read this but without the 10-step process, you are  
missing the point. If you don't use and document the process by step you 
can/may  lose your credibility in trying to resolve the project/problem.
What you file your legal complaint, you will be asked if you tried to  
resolve the problem using the 10-step process.  If you answer NO and the  
Defendant 
says that they were never contacted and you can prove it, then it may  take 
valuable more time.
 
Justice is not operated like a light switch.  Its a phased process  and 
those potential defendant knows that already.  If you can prove and  document, 
then your credibility can not be question as you further the  process.
 
Remember you have to have the FACTS to prove your complaint.
Best Wishes

w, I haven't been to an Applebees in years and I'm completely unaware of their 
status at this time. I was told then that ADA complaints were being negotiated. 
I was mostly stunned that someone here mentioned them (although, I, think in 
the context of rude management). I should go sometime this summer, but the 
prices there are usually more than I like spending on food. When I was there 
last, I was working.

I can relate to that too as I've haven't be there in the same amount of  time 
and then some.
You can still go there for a glass of lemon water and a bowl of cracker N  
soup.  Of course if you can't get seated in a proper place the bowl of  
crackers 
is moot.  
Regarding the negotiations, are you being copied or did you ask to be  
copied?  The complaint process is not a passive process, once  started.  
Remember 
you are just getting facts.
