Glad you had a good time
Glad you thought the suggestions were helpful. :) I know some people probably think we are crazy but unless you are an avid camper you might not realize how much time can be spent just getting ready! Every little time saver you can find makes the trip all the more pleasurable when you don't end up exhausted just getting ready to go. :D
Glad to hear you all had a good time. :)

Glad I cherished my children's time
at home. They are grown now, have children of their own. Seems they were here for a few minutes, then grew and gone. Just dearly miss those little boys coming home from school, excited with news of the day, and all the bumps and bruises, bugs they would catch, their funny little stories, little nuances, and they were so humerous and made me laugh and joked around in their teenage years. Am so glad I had those days, but would dearly love to have my children home on vacation. Just wish parents would choose to ENJOY their children instead feeling that they are in the way. In the way of what? Working? Goodness gracious, got a lot to learn. I agree with the poster who said that children feel what you think they do not, and it will hurt them, and you, in the years to come.
Glad I'm not the only pokey one. I have a terrible time trying to reach 150 lph.

Glad you had a good time. We just hung around the house.
Sounds like the Marines at your house! I'm really glad you "schedule" some quality time wi
your kids! I think you are way harsh with your 15-year-old stepdaughter. What's wrong with helping with homework? Not giving her the answers, but sitting with her and explaining things? I help my 14-year-old with his homework and I check everything he does for errors. If he makes mistakes, I sit down with him and explained what he did and have him do it over.
As fars as my kids getting up on their own - my kindergartener gets up without the aid of an alarm clock because she is an early riser, but my teenager has to be gotten up and personally I don't see what is wrong with that. They are TEENAGERS!
My kids have chores and earn an allowance each week. They must keep their rooms clean. My son takes out the garbage, cleans the bathroom, and helps me do the dishes. My daughter takes turns helping me do the dishes and sweeps the kitchen floor and feeds the animals.
My kids are spoiled, but what's the point in being a working mom if you can't spoil your kids every now and then?
Glad I could help and glad you got your setup going. nm

glad to help, glad it worked!

Not anymore. For some time now, I've been working 32 hours and am considered full time to receive

Working full time at home with small children is hard but part time works great
is almost impossible. You will either have to work when your spouse is home or for only a few hours during the day and then more when they are asleep. I work part time at home and my kids (2&5 now) have done very, very well. They are great kids, very well behaved, don't get into much. I stop working to check on them/give them some attention every hour or so while I work (5 hours each afternoon or so) and they get all my attention in the morning and at night. It has worked out beautifully for us.
Yeah, our choc. lab does that from time to time - makes it interesting!- nm

Cannot legally require you to commit time to them as an employee and then not pay you for that time.

full-time in office/ part-time at home
I currently work full-time in a physician's office and have started part-time online. My hope is to eventually go full-time online; however that will be done the road for a single mom with a son in college. My suggestion would be try to type part-time for a MTSO and see how that goes i.e work and money with a decision down the road for ultimately being home all the time. A guaranteed paycheck is always a necessity for me. Hope this helps.
I work part-time hours with full-time pay...
I made over 26,000 this year...
I work a full time and a part time, but not sure about 2 full-time...
My hubbie is disabled and I am the only one in my family working also, so I fully understand. You will not have a day off at all working 2 full-time as that is going to be the only way you will get in all your hours. I work one job in the mornings from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the other from 5 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. and do have off one day a week, but if I had to get in the extra 15 hours to make the other job full-time I am not sure how I would do that other than lose my only day off. Also, make sure you have your account specifics in front of you at all times because you will get yourself confused as to who is what and having notes will help in that area. Good luck to you, as it is possible, but forget about your house being clean, having any social life, etc. Feel free to email me personally if you just need someone to talk to, as I have been where you are and still am.
Maybe they will. Give it time. It takes time to set up links.
OSI, Precyse, etc tell us more.
full time, part time, statutory
newly defined full time...
newly defined part time....(which is an added classification)
I believe statutory just was not mentioned because there is nothing new about the definition of statutory.
full time/part time/statutory
The definition of full time is new.
There is a new classification called part time.
I believe statutory was not mentioned merely because that has not changed and they do not receive PTO/benefits.
I work 1 full-time, 2 part-time....nm

be glad to.
let me finish my job (another 30 min or so) and i will find the verse.
Glad I could help ! .nm

Thank you - I'm glad to see that there is sm
somebody here that's intelligent enough to tell the difference. I wasn't looking for advice. I just wanted to know if anyone else experienced anything similar.
I guess I should have known better than to post anything here.
Glad I'm not alone. sm
I always just try to consider the source. The sad part is that the people, whomever they may be, who makes these hateful posts on ALL boards are either 1) Trolls or 2) Very unhappy people.
I am so glad I did not take the job with them..s
I am glad I did NOT take the job with that office...sorry pay to boot...7 cpl.
I'm so glad! Also, ...sm
I hate that you cried yourself to sleep all night. It's too much pain for anyone to bear, and I've been crying too. Your post reassured me that I'm not being overdramatic about feeling so compassion for our furry friends. My husband is getting tired of hearing me talk about the those poor dogs down there. I also want to drive there and get some of them. If I don't hear from Best Friends soon about being a foster parent to dogs belonging to the evacuees, I may just do that. (Best Friends says they will transport the pet(s) to you, no matter where you live). Time was of the essence for some of those dogs I saw on the news, and that was yesterday a.m.
Hope someone can get word to the little boy that his pet is located and safe - don't know how though. All I can think about is the little boy worrying about his pet. If he knew his little buddy was OK, he might have some comfort and lessen the pain.
I glad I could be of help!
I know that the decision to homeschool is a mammouth one and can almost be mind boggling! Try to fine a homeschool support group. The public library often knows of them and can direct you or sometimes churches will have large support groups. Call around. I am from Indiana and our state's homeschool office is called Indiana's Association of Home Educators. I know they can give you all the info you need if your from the Hoosier state!
I am so glad this came up...
Please, can you tell me, I am 100% hooked on this program (the sound does not interfere a bit with the dictation for me); however, I did not know it was only a free trial. Supposedly, I only have 15 days left.
Help! Now I have sound pilot. Is home typist different, and if it is, is it free and how would I download that?
Did you have to pay for yours?
I am so grateful to you for posting this originally because it has really helped me...
For the poster previously, "sis," if you read this there are a bunch of other sounds you can download. I switched to the "smith-corona" sound and it is a little softer sound, like the old electric typewriters...
So glad someone had a
chance to read it before it's deleted. 
Glad to see there are more too
Being 33 and single without kids and no man or one in sight, just meeting guys who are afraid to commit..well thats my life. I feel kind of judged by people, esp friends who have gone on to marry, some have gotten divorced, but even the divorced ones look down upon me. Like i'm the bad one to not have gotten married and divorced yet. These guys just drain me, it seems like so much work to keep one around let alone faithful. I've got work and school though.
Glad U like it!
Same 2U!
That is what I do. Glad to see others doing the same. nm

Wow. I'm glad
I'm not that wasteful to just fill up our landfills with perfectly good food.
glad I could help....*S*....nm

I am glad I was of some help. :) nm
I'm glad you said this
The docs never stop dictating. Sometimes a hospital will allow another service to come in for a trial run. Sometimes they funnel all work to the 'trial run' company and sometimes they will funnel a portion. Wanna know why hospitals do this...
1. TAT is not always met...because MTs call in sick and ICs don't keep a consistent schedule and work sits for days waiting to be typed.
2. Hospital continuously gets lousy work...because MTs who have been released from QA upload lousy work because they are more focused on getting more lines instead of producing a quality product.
I know this because I have worked in hospital administration before. I am now an MT. Many MTs gripe and moan about getting fired or not having enough work. What you guys don't seem to realize is that a lot of this is due to MTs who have a poor work ethic.
Everytime you call in sick, you cause an avalanche of issues. Because you work from home, many of you don't understand the concept of 'teamwork'. You see things as they apply to you and not the big picture. MTSOs are under a lot of pressure to find good MTs who will provide a quality product to the client.
MTs are probably the most job hopping people there are. It is very difficult to keep a client happy and make sure TATs are met when you have 10 MTs off 'sick' each day. It's also very difficult to keep a client happy when they have 10 or more crappy reports uploaded each day.
A hospital can drop an MTSO and move on to another. Well guess what...the account that you were hired for is no longer. You also have companies who hire lots of ICs who work and work and work taking away work from the MT employees. I could go on and on but I'll stop here.
You are Welcome...glad I could help...nm
I am glad for you.
Instead of being jealous, I am inspired. So far I have only worked for a clinic as an employee (making very little money) or for companies, first as an employee and now as an subcontractor. The owner of the company I am with now is a wonderful person, but I am not making as much money as I need to make. I am looking into other ways to do it. I live in a rural area, so there are not as many opportunities as in more urban areas, but ever since I have been doing MT there has always been plenty of work to do. Most of it is being done by companies, but I am sure if I check around I can find some work that pays better. I personally know people who are doing well. I do not intend to totally give up what I have now and just sink or swim. I guess what I am saying is that most of us do make choices. Some of you may have circumstances that keep you from going it on your own. Even then, you do make choices. When I was working for a company, I enjoyed having paid time off. As an independent contractor, that is something you have to work around. If we just sit around and whine about what we make, we will never get out find something better.
I'm glad :-)
I'm glad it made you feel a little better . Good luck to you. I will be thinking and praying for you.
I, too, am glad to see him gone
He was a nice kid, I'm sure, but just wasn't mature enough, in my opinion, to be an American Idol. Give him a few years and he may grow on the public!
Now.....Let's hope Bucky goes next week!
Glad to know I'm not alone at 5' 2" :)
I was blessed with longer legs and a shorter torso though so chairs aren't a problem. My hubby is 5' 10" and he has a long torso and shorter legs and we both drive the car with the seat in the same position. (and yes I can see over the steering wheel). :)
Now top shelves. . . . .that's a whole different story. :) My boys are 6' 3" and almost 6 feet so, while I still have them around, I just yell to one of them when I need something up high.
I'm always rewarded with them teasingly resting their elbow on my head though.
Older daughter is 5' 6" and younger one is almost 5 feet already at 11. I'm destined to be the "little one."
I'm so glad she's gone!!
I absolutely hated her voice, it drove me crazy watching the show!! Her voice is great for church, but not for the real word and definitely not good enough to be an Americal Idol winner! I mean look at Fantasia, where the heck is she now?? I can see Chris getting pretty far in the business, but nobody really seems like they have the "it" factor like Kelly Clarkson did/does.
I'm glad
I'm glad somebody brought this up because I was thinking the same thing. It is a good thing to keep discussions focused but focusing them too narrowly can defeat the purpose of having a discussion. And then being scolded and having posts moved all over or deleted is really annoying. No offense, but it is. And before we are told to go elsewhere, would anybody be interested in a Yahoo discussion group for MTs where they can discuss things other than MT work? I know there is one group like that, which shall be nameless, that is dominated by a nasty clique. I would like to start a more friendly one if anybody is interested. Let me know!
You are welcome, glad you like it!

Me too - I'm glad it's not just me. He looks no different than anyone else you see every day.
What's the big deal?
so glad he's doing better!
 It's so hard with animals when they can't tell you what's wrong. Glad he's home again and feeling his old playful self ! 
Glad to help!

I'm glad to see that someone else...sm
doesn't pay their kids to do weekly chores. Our kids know they're responsible for cleaning their own rooms and bathroom and everyone takes a day of the week to vacuum the living room so that it's vacuumed every other day. I do sometimes offer them pay if they want to do extra chores i.e. pull weeds in the yard but not always. I tell them when they fuss about the regular chores and not getting paid for them that when they become an adult no one will pay them to clean their own house!
I am glad for you....
you sounded in such a bind at the time, I was hoping you would get some keepers out of it all. I just knew that posting your cpl would bring responses in!
Good luck with your new employees/ICs/SEs!!
I think that was me.....I am glad sm
it worked for you. Although I did not have a big kitty at the time I thought of this (in fact, opposite for me, small petite cat who liked to stand), it worked great, and still does for the cats I have now. I was getting so sick of having to clean "P" off the floor and wall and from underneath the box, although I do every once in awhile wipe down the walls. I only wished I had thought of it earlier!!!! My husband cut the door with a saw or knife and then used duct tape to cover the rough edges.
Yay! I am so glad...
that you do not agree with their views. Way to go MT Stars! 
glad I am not alone
I was beginning to feel like no one cared. Some of my reports have patient name and addresses in them - that is freaky scary to think that all their medical information could get into the hands of someone who makes a dollar a day.
