Yes - does not work! Hoax if you ask me. MetaboLife doesn't work either.
The only thing that works for me is exercise and eating correctly! No quick fix, unfortunately.
You dont work for them, you work for YOU. If you

I TRIED to work, WANTED to work, but
So now I have to scramble for the rest of the week, trying to catch up on what I didn't do today. And of course, working today was in hopes of catching up on whatI didn't do last week. This job is a never-ending hamster-wheel of lunacy.
Everyone has to work once in a while!
Normally in this industry, you are paid an incentive to work "holidays". When I was in-house, I was offered a day off other than the holiday I worked, which was great. I was also offered to only work a 4 hour day, in-house. At home, you should also be given an incentive for those holidays! Some people think that Martin Luther King Day is more important than Christmas because they may celebrate Kwanzaa. Some people feel that April Fool's Day is important, so they are willing to work Easter. It goes on and on... There will be times in your life when you have to make a choice, "one day off" or a career in the "medical field". I would have to agree that we are important especially on those holidays. For example, most hospitals and emergent care units are staffed with one doctor, so it should really be only STATs you are typing. It is hard to "choose" when you want to be "sick". Hence, our salary!!!!!!! Most people will work all kinds of crazy schedules to accomodate their own lives, so why be so uptight about working Christmas because your employer requires coverage. On the other hand, this should be rotated amongst a pool of typists. I worked with a lady that would always volunteer for Thanksgiving (she had no family), so she could have Christmas off just to make us all mad! She'd say "well, I've worked the last 10 Thanksgivings, so I deserve Christmas off! It was so sad! Hmmmpphh! :) Good luck! Have a nice holiday (no matter how you spend it)!
He did see my dog and work him up sm
and everything came back negative. I'm going to push him more on Tuesday when I call him. I like our vet a lot-have been using him for years with all of my dogs and so far he hasn't steered me wrong. I'm just not sure I want to wait much longer on getting him some medication. The poor little guy suffers so and it just scares the heck out of us. I mean, there isn't anything we can do but hold him and ride it out and just be there when he comes out of it. I just haven't had to deal with anything like this before.
Nah, I do it, too, the more I work, the more I do it.
on vacation, notsomuch!
Does this work?
testing
Both will work actually.
For people who want to learn about something, anything, Google is a great tool. If you want to get into semantics about it though, personally I have real-life, first-hand experience with these critters called OTTBs. That stands for off-track thoroughbreds. They live until their late 20's and sometimes into their 30's and that is rarely taken into consideration by the racing industry, who I feel should kick in a little cash at birth, for every single horse they register with Jockey Club, to ensure that these animals can be cared for, for the rest of their lives. Oh wait...that would put a crimp in the breeders bottom line though, wouldn't it.
I used to work
with someone who would say the quirkiest things. got on my nerves.
And I used to work with someone who had
a stick up their rectum and made everyone's lives mundane.
No, not every day and get this- I only work
part-time. She is always available when I want her to come over, can stay the night if I am working later, whenever I want her. You are probably going to start throwing rocks but my pay to her is anywhere from 50-75 dollars a day, depending on what she does, any extra things I have her do like cleaning the closets, putting up seasonal clothes, other than the regular clothes washing and the house cleaning (she does not iron on a regular basis but if I need something special, she would do that)- she used to cook for us but my hubby does that now. I DO NOT want to quit even my part time position- heck my husband might think I had the time to do housework too and ugh!!
Never during work...
I don't get that. They could buy a lot more if they only shopped on the off hours ;)
That might work if
He would actually go. I can only do so much to make him go. He is the most stubborn man in the world!!
It might work
to cover the parts of the couch they are scratching because cats tend to return to the same spot. If you cover the couch completely, they may go under the cover unless it's secured. If you prefer the cats stay completely off the couch, you could use Scat Mats. They give a little shock from a battery when touched.
Good luck. I've declawed cats before to save the furniture, and they never have the same muscle strength in their upper body after they lose the claws. I've switched to dogs because dogs listen, LOL.
I do work for PS and this is the one - sm
operation she does not like doing, says it leaves horrible scars. She does them but shows many before/after pics and actually has the patient talk to others that have had it done before she will do it for them. They go into it with their eyes wide open. So if you do get it re-done be prepared (that is if a Dr. will re-do you anyway).
How did that work
with insurance? I have one in my left armpit that really bugs me because it is so visible when I wear sleevless tops. My doctor told me that insurance would not cover removing it because it would be cosmetic purposes.
They do work, but -
You have to keep replacing them when their nails grow, or sometimes they just come off. I have all mine trained now not to touch the furniture. In fact, in the 25 years I have had cats I have never had a problem with my furniture being ruined (and I even have leather). I have scratching pads (both upright and the ones in the track ball cirle) that I keep supplied with fresh catnip that I grow myself. The cats LOVE it! They want to show me they are using the designated scratching areas because I always praise them when they do. Now, you need to put them in high traffic areas, not squirreled away some place your cats never go. Put them near the furniture, covered with fresh catnip. Then slowly transition the posts to another location, but put it some place the cats can easily get to. I bet it will work. Best of luck to you! :-)
that might work..
I do dearly love this cat and would rather move some place without carpet than get rid of him. The vet says that Maine Coon cats are supposed to be the easiest cat to train, so maybe it would be a matter of putting him in the crate at night until he got used to not having the food?
If you don’t work for MQ
then you are not allowed to post there. I see the posts coming in and I see no harm in asking that question.
Can you work in those?
NM
where do you work or are you an IC
I am just asking because its the opposite for me. Congratulations though. That is an accomplishment.
I wish that would work, but
my bank is merging with another bank this week, and they have gotten really strict about not crediting anything to your account after 2 p.m., even through the ATM. Until this week, I could make a deposit through the ATM until 8 p.m. and it was posted the same day. I did a "test" deposit this past Monday after 2 to see if I could trick the account, but it didn't work. I hate bank mergers.
I need overdraft, but I can't do anything about it today. All the offices were closed by the time I realized I was one penny short.
Thanks for the advice and keep the fingers and toes and anything else you can crossed!
Maybe they were getting work done
in the house and moved furniture out for that. Something like getting floors refinished. I worked with a girl who burned down her boyfriend's house because she locked it up tightly after they were working on it. The fumes filled the house and ignited from water heater or something. Besides I think insurance company would notice if there was no burnt furniture in the house.
I used to go to work at 5 but now
in my older years sleep until I wake, part timer, work 12-8 and absolutely love it, so much more energy than when I had to beat the keys 24/7.
Well, that might work for others however
I have the bird feeder sitting in front of my window where I work so I (as well as the furkids) can watch the birds- the squirrels get in a bush next to the feeder and make a flying leap. They don’t fool with going from the bottom up. By the way I feed all animals, be they birds or squirrels so doesnt really matter to me who is eating at what time.
Not sure if this will work -
Slide show of Cedric that DH made.
Maybe, just maybe, this would work -
Maybe you can embarrass them into calling first. Keep your doors locked, including the garage. Next time they show up unexpectedly, you and your husband hurriedly take off all your clothes and put on a robe, mess up your hair and answer the door like that. Then say, oh, sorry, we were just in the middle of something, now is not a good time. Just might work.........
I'm sorry your work is low
Hope it picks up. I'm loving today. All five of my doctors are out today so no work, but I still get paid to do nothing all day.
This will never work out this way-
that being your husband not backing you in what you need. I had g'children living with us for awhile and I told my husband (his g'children actually) then that even though we were not the parents, we had to work together as a unit because if not the child(ren) know the weaknesses and they will use them to get their way. Getting rid of my problem probably would not be helpful to you- I had the older girl leave (she had other g'parents in the city) and eventually the other 2 left. What a headache and I know the feelings about being made out to be the wicked person in this situation. I have lived that.
No work for me
I was off yesterday and today. I'm actually off until next Wednesday. I hope in spite of working, everyone had a wonderful holiday.
Work, work, work. That's about it.
Pretty boring, huh?
work and
Applebee's tonight - Easter play tomorrow night. Would be going hiking but we have rain. . Also going to watch UK basketball this afternoon . . and if they win, again tonight. .
trying to work some also
this weekend. take a break and take dogs for walk, maybe get a cup of java, and just relax later tonight :)
I think I work too much
:(
I work for the Q, too, though not for
long for the exact reason you mentioned - not making much money. We're also building a house, signed our contract yesterday. The price of lumbar may be down, but that must be about it. It costs almost double to build a house than it did 10 years ago. At any rate, I think you're right - he may be seeing it as rejection when you leave. Try talking to him when he's not upset and let him know you're going to be his partner for life, so he may as well clue in on things now.
It has nothing to do with her work.
Her Myspace is a personal page that is meant for her friends not her kids or clients. I know plenty of people that work with children, and it really doesn't matter what they do outside of work...as long as they're not doing it in front of the kids or telling them/you about it. She should have her profile set to private though, and then there wouldn't even be a question as you wouldn't see them.
Well I now work outside, and our
weather has also been 100 in the shade for 6 days in a row. Unfortunately I can't stay in the shade. Thankfully I had the weekend off, but it was 100 or more degrees today. Apparently a cold front is coming through and it may only get to 98 tomorrow. Up until this it had been the perfect spring. I think I'm the only person wearing sunglasses, and even when I have them on I keep thinking I need sunglasses.
Work with me here
If I were to open up a little place that only serves hot dogs...........
1. What brands would you like to see on the menu..Kosher/non Kosher
2. What toppings
3. Would you limit the menu to only hot dogs or would you include brats..if so..what kind and toppings
4. Would you serve a bag of chips or an order of fries
5. Fountain drinks, or can/bottled drinks?
This might work
I have a cat that just hates every kind of litter I tried. I finally shredded newspapers and put in one of my pans. Romeo uses it everytime. The other cats started using it too. I use it in all the pans. Saves a fortune. I even use shredded mail. Any paper works although newspaper is more absorbent. It is worth a try. Good Luck!
Hmm...that just could work. I had tried - sm
both NO litter, and also putting flat newspaper in one of the pans noting that she would pee on things like cardboard boxes or magazines if I left them lying around. The problem with the flat paper is it doesn't absorb at all, so you have to wash the box not just every day, but every time she uses it. Now I'm wondering if, should the shredded paper work, it might not be possible to eventually wean her from that to something a little more absorbent, like "Yesterday's Mews", or maybe a combination of the two.
Thanks for your input! I'll give it a try!
Where I work now there is a guy (sm)
with a voice that puts me over the edge all the time. It's soooo distracting, in a good way. :op
If i'm not a mom, nor an MT, but i do work, then where do i work and what do i do?
x
Boy do you have your work cut out for you...sm
If he downloaded pics of this for his myspace page, that is not good. If he is interested enough to put it on his myspace, then I think he is interested enough to be doing it. He obviously thinks it is cool. After all he is a teenager.
You have to confront him. I mean it is not appropriate for a teenager to have these sorts of pics period. I don't know about not seeing the signs. Maybe he smokes it somewhere else and doesn't come around you when he is high. You need to show the pics to his dad. He has a right to know. And he needs some tough love anyways. And yes, I remember being 16 and if my parents hadn't been tough there is no telling where I would be today. Confront him, and tell him no hanging around his friend. I would personally call the friends parents too. They need to know. Tell your husband and let him get the punishment he deserves. He was warned the last time he got caught with the pipe. If he rebells deal with it when it happens. He definitely needs punishment and to know this will not be tolerated.
Please please please try to work with her
I saw a show once and they had an animal expert on and some lady thought her pet was mad at her and doing things just to aggravate her. The expert told her that animals do not think the way we do. I agree with Happy MT, there might be a medical reason as to the urination problem on your bed.
I know its frustrating, but animals do pick up on things. We have a cat here and whenver my DH and I talk about moving long distance, she gets aggravated and just acts weird. When we sit and talk about staying put or moving locally she is calm. I do believe that your pet will pick up on your emotions towards her and she probably does not understand why you are punishing her by putting her outside.
I too would take her to the vet and have her checked out and make sure everything is okay. Then I would try to gain back some of the love she feels you lost for her. We grow fresh catnip here in pots and almost every day we rub it on her mouse and she goes crazy for that. Then we pet her and play with a string and paper balls. Oh we do have lots of cat toys we bought for her but she prefers a piece of string and rolled up paper balls to play with.
I believe cats do have feelings. You can definitely tell when a cat or dog is feeling happy, sad or scared. Maybe keep her inside but close the door to your room so that she cannot come in anymore and then when she slowly regains her trust with you and behaves then you can slowly re-introduce her to the room and see how it works.
Maybe there is just something in your room that she doesn't like (a certain smell or something) and maybe it is scaring her.
I used to work like you
years ago because I liked to make money and also loved to have exotic vacations and money to spend. I hate to go to the store and have to count each penny. Up until 2000 when I remarried, I worked really 2 full time jobs. I have now slowed down but have money to cover things I want, finances changed for me with investments, money from parent, etc. I now have time to enjoy things I have been wanting to do, like rescuing animals just because I want to, no money involved for me on this, just the pure pleasure.
Me too! I work outside in it, and I had
a fun day today. The snow finally got wet enough that we could make snowballs, so we had a snowball fight. At lunch one of the guys fried up some crappie and we shared that. I had brought a big hunk of chocolate cake, so I shared that. Fun! I love my job at the plant nursery.
Then we'd really have no work!!!
I think maybe 5% of the docs on the account I'm on are domestic. If I sent all the Indian doc's transcription overseas, I'd be working maybe 2 hours a week.
The doc I used to work for did this all
the time, which is part of the reason I don't work there anymore. He ran 2 hours behind every day. I was so pi$$ed one day I called him on his cell to ask where he was and he said he had to get a haircut. The man is bald with the exception of a little run of hair from ear to ear on the back. I was infuriated.
He was an oncologist and wasn't always sure how to treat the patient, so he'd have us put the patient in a room so the patient couldn't see him trying to call other doctors to ask. He'd leave them sit in there for an hour if he couldn't get someone on the phone to help him. It was pathetic. I put up with this for about 6 months and then I quit. I couldn't stand to watch him mis-treat patients.
On top of that, he was rude to the staff and the patients. It was a large specialty practice (30-some docs) and I worked in one of the satellite offices. He was the only doc there. One day he came out and asked me if I thought it would be okay to give a patient chemo with a blood sugar in the 400s. He was totally serious. I said I would probaby send them to the ER. That's what he ended up doing.
I used to work for
check for any kind of abuse, refusing to go #2 at school, parasites, or chronic constipation that has resulted in lack of feeling down there.
Other than that, boys of 11 tend to have bad hygiene, refuse to shower, wash properly, deodorant, etc. May be time for super hygienic "no farting" lecture.
If you and he think that it will work, then go for it.
Nothing is guaranteed in life. It's all about YOUR and HIS perception.
60 and 40? Both middle aged, could go very well.
Do you know this?
'It is worse to regret things which one has not done than things which one has done!'
If you do not try it, you will your whole life torture yourself:
'I should have, could have, would have....arrrggghhhh!'
How are you going to know the outcome if you don't give it a try? The chance is more than 50:50 in your favaor and love can move mountains.
Give it a try, but BE CAREFUL! Good luck!
You are truly a work of art
The lady was in a meeting due to start this morning. The lady in the due to start meeting was speaking ebonics about every other word. She said her aunt (2 years ago) had to have testes done. She also said I goes and the like. This was this morning in a meeting yet to start. Is that clearer to you?
