Just like the MT profession, the sheriff just FADED AWAY instead of...

standing up to the evil and going down fighting, and based on how everybody fights on this board with each other, well a house divided will fall.

If it hasn't faded yet, it probably won't but
the shades are usually based on your natural shade, not what color it is at the time.
The dark blonde should be fine, but just make sure to keep checking it because the longer you leave it in the lighter it will get. If your gray is already covered then you can ignore the extra time you are supposed to leave it on for that. Hope this helps!
But - the deputy sheriff and I both
were there this morning and the manager said in front of the deputy sheriff I would be paid today at 4. What do you think a letter from a lawyer would accomplish? They did not show up in court when commanded by the courts to do so, did not answer any response sent from the court. Tell me why the lawyer, ok?
I would call the sheriff right now and report - seriously.
That is very, very unusual behavior and you need to make a record of it and protect yourself. Lock all your doors and be very, very cautious now. He knows you are alone now and vulnerable and who knows what he might do. Be careful!
What has our profession come to? sm
That an experienced MT like "Keeping Homelessness at Bay" has to suffer such financial insecurity? Until perhaps 7-10 years ago--this is a rough guess--a good MT with experience and good skills could always find a pretty well-paying job. Can offshoring and VR only be blamed? Or the economy? Greed of the MTSOs? Or exactly what combination of that and more? I'd like to know about it.
So you think that little of your own profession, that
justified? Right? That it's the MTs' fault? And how much exactly do YOU make per year? Oh, I know. You're going to say 'Sixty thousand', just like the MT schools promise, and just like all the other inflated egos on this board profess to make. No, I would venture a guess that the 60K is what your HUBBY makes, and the pittance you bring in as an MT pays for life's little extras.
Yes, I have seen this profession evolve
to an at-home profession. It is advertised as a "be home with the kids" job. Society is not to blame for that; however, the awful children you speak of are a product of bad parenting or a child that has issues. Some parents tolerate more than what our parents did when we were young. I was not allowed to talk to my mother or father in a way like you hear these days. One only hopes to instill values and respect in their children. I guess this can be a trickle effect. On the other hand, children are people too. They will get angry and should be allowed to vent that anger, but in a healthy way, not in the middle of a box store! Yes, I remember those days when my children wanted this or wanted that. I am one of those who would leave the cart full of groceries in the middle of the store. Believe me, it has happened! There are those who feel that childcare is not the answer and also feel that working at home with children under feet is not the answer. I think whatever works for you and your situation is what is healthy all around. I sometimes felt trapped with two children to tote all over. I am relieved that they are a little older now and have their friends. I sure do enjoy them though, and they are growing so fast. I know I'll be in a situation where I am looking behind me to see where they are, and they will be long gone living their own lives, at least that is what I hope for them. We are blessed with these children, but given no instruction manual. We learn from trial and error as with a lot of things in life, I guess. You know the old saying if I knew then what I know now.....
I get this from the medical profession, too -
My family doc respects my knowledge, but heaven forbid I say something medical if I have to take my daughter to the ER! They look at me like I have two heads, then continue to talk in monosyllables.
In this economy and this profession
this is really good to know .
normal for this profession sm
Typing in dark, just got up,but we have to have quiet and solitude to pay attention to what we're doing. I rented an office because my husband talks so much, never near my work but used to sit on the stairs and talk to me and kept interrupting. Even with an office I would get upset if someone walked in while I was working. It's part of the problem and I do like people but find them very irritating when I try to concentrate. Now I feel I am a "victim" of having no one to really "talk" to when I need to "talk" because I was so short with everyone. It's hard, I'm lonely too, that's why I come in here. SAD, people don't understand. It's a lonely profession. But then again, I hate "small talk" after all the true in-depth stories I heard from my work, all the rest seems boring and not important. So you have "company" after all!
Mine charges $12 (shocking!!) only other profession I know of
whose wages have gone down like MTs - and you do not tip if it is the owner of the shop is my understanding
Whadda ya mean? Its the world's oldest profession
