Another shampoo/conditioner idea
Posted By: sm on 2005-08-08
In Reply to: the extra bottle for the shampoo is an excellent idea - thanks!
Go to Sally Beauty Supply. They occasionally have their shampoo on sale - one-gallon jugs of concentrate for $5. Variety of fragrances and formulas with matching conditioner. This stuff has lasted me over a year and is still going strong.

the extra bottle for the shampoo is an excellent idea
I could prob do that for just about every soap I use.
AIR-CONDITIONER
My office is cooled with a window air-conditiner which has gotten so noisy I have to shut it off when I have bad dictators. I need to replace it - anyone know of a "whisper-quiet" window unit?
Could be in the ducts or air-conditioner. (sm)
First the air-conditioner needs to be serviced. If your DH is handy he should check for a drip pan that could be full of water - and mold and mildew! There is a drainage tube that needs to stay open. They can get clogged and must be flushed out. The drainage pain can then be drained and then bleach solution should stand in it to kill the fungi, then rinsed out. Next project is to call somebody that cleans out heating ducts. They need to put brushes into the ducts and sweep around and such out all the gunk for you. When all that is done, a good air filter inside will also help. The heavily advertised ones are not necessarily the best or the best price, of course. Check with Consumer Reports, I'd think.
Remember when there was no conditioner, then Tame came out. What a thrill.
InfusionB23 for leave in conditioner, then add Frizzease

here is the link to the shampoo
http://www.avenaherbs.com/
Deb Soule has written quite a few books, the farm is unbelievable, and the shampoo for dogs was the best I had ever used on my beloved beagle. Hate to keep boasting like this, but my beagle actually liked being bathed in this shampoo as opposed to the other stuff we had given her.
So when are you coming over to shampoo my rugs?
They get soooooooo dirty, sooooooooo fast. I'm talking light pink here. We do have an Electrolux carpet shampooer and we honestly use it at least once a month for full carpet cleaning and even more for spot cleaning. Otherwise I'd have a pink rug with brown stripes. :)
I'd just use a regular /baby shampoo until you can
flea shampoo for puppies, then get some Frontline or Advantage....just check what the age is for it, pretty sure you can use those puppies. Keep her away from the other dogs obviously, especially if she has worms as just about all puppies do.
Not people-baby shampoo. pH is too low.
My vet says regular people shampoo isn't so bad, but people baby shampoo has a much lower pH that is totally wrong for dogs. Now puppy shampoo is great. It has the same anesthetic for the eyes that baby shampoo has, but with the correct, higher pH. He also assured me that it is okay to use people dandruff shampoo on cats or dogs now and then, especially if the animal has oily-type dandruff.
Don't lay down to read to them at night, do everyone's sheets, and your shampoo your heads, to
,
You could bathe with a gentle shampoo or even dish detergent, rinse well and if you have vinegar do
a vinegar rinse and then do a final rinse. This might drown the fleas or at least stun them. If dog is light colored you might be able to see them and pick them off when dog is wet. If you have a dog brush, brush it outside and you might get some off that way. If you have tea tree oil you can put some around its neck area or on a collar if you have one. This is a fairly strong smell though and we've always had to wash it off the same day, though lots of people swear by this. I can't think of anything else you can do with stuff you already have around the house.
We adopted 3 kittens from the shelter and have never had a flea problem, but now we can't seem to get rid of them and my dog is on 3 different treatments and I still find an occasional flea. She has developed a sensitivity to bites too and scratches all the time and can't take prednisone because she has Cushings.
Growing up we had a tri-colored Pembroke corgi. He was the sweetest thing and I still miss him terribly, 30 years later.
This is the whole idea
The corporations want it that way-- they don't give a rip about the "middle class". The CEOs just want to be able to buy a new yacht every year, new cars, have several homes all over the country and maybe the world, etc. It's all about GREED. That's why nobody will do anything about illegal immigration. They want to pay their workers as little as possible so it's all profit for them.
What is your idea of
"enough?" How much do you think the job is worth?
An idea
for the businesses that you should contact are the ones where your friend has done business such as bank,church, her place of employment, and any place that her parents were involved in. When we had a fundraiser for someone that I worked with we contacted a local band and a bar with a dance floor to helped raise money for his injuries. They all volunteered their service free of charge. And many people showed up to help him out. Just a thought!
You have no idea.
Let's just keep it there.
Better idea
If you have an experienced MT doing the recruiting, he/she can tell just in a conversation whether the applicant does/does not know his/her business. As you said, you're going to know within the first couple of days whether or not the applicant is going to pan out If you're testing for an MT to do cardiac caths, start a conversation about cardiac caths. All MTs I have ever known love to discuss their trade...if they know it. These extensive tests put out by most companies these days are a horrific waste of time...they don't prove a thing!
Idea
Maybe it's like one website I went to, where it seemed the way to do it was to respond with an e-mail first (pasting a resume into your e-mail and saying what job you were interested in), and then they would respond and tell you what tests they wanted you to take?
I have no idea! -nm

Now there's an idea!

Thank you for that idea. I can do that.
The obvious solution is always right in front of us, right? LOL
I have no idea what they are seeing that I am
Not at all. Good for them if they are getting a better deal at Walmart. Wasn't happening for me.
Have no idea what it could be, but if he has any (nm)
nm
I have them...have no idea why you don't
You might try emailing the moderator or administrator of this site.
one idea
If you are using actual WavPedal software, try this first. Open WavPedal - settings - options - file associations - and make sure .dss is checked (or add file type .dss and check it). Close. Then, right click on your voice file and "open with" and choose WavPedal. Should open. Sounds like your default player for voice files is not WavPedal. I think it will ask you (can't remember off hand) then just choose YES for WavPedal as default for all files with .dss association.
I had no idea. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Here is an idea
Start out not charging anyone anything but time. Everyone who joins contributes a skill to the organization such as marketing, PR, etc. It costs nothing to do e-mail newsletters, just time and some people to write for it. Online meetings on Yahoo or MSN groups would be nothing to do.
Also getting a website can be pretty cheap if a few members would be willing to design it. Everyone has a friend of a friend who has this business or that. A lot of times, especially in the case of smaller businesses, they are willing to trade small services for exposure and advertising. You would be amazed.
I used to work in Marketing for nonprofits before deciding to stay home as an MT. I also still do consulting work. I am all for a new organization and would love to participate in any way I could to back to representing what "they" were supposed to.
Send me an e-mail. We'll chat. ![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/shake.gif)
Huh? what does this mean? no idea.nm
.
Thanks for this idea....sm
is there a way to find out what companies hire SE? That sounds good. What company do you work for if you don't mind me asking. You could e-mail me if you want. Thanks!
You have no idea how much better that
makes me feel! Hopefully mine does the same. I've unplugged it and am leaving it alone for awhile. I found out to fix it the cost will be around $300. I sure hope it works.
I do not know how my supervisor puts up with me sometimes, but she has me set up to work another way until I get this fixed. Thank you all for the help!
any idea
anyone know why it takes so long to get a count on the ichart site? Been happening all week - takes up to a full day and 1/2.
Thanks so much for that Idea! sm
You know I'm beating myself up trying hard to figure out how to do the hard hyphen and hard space so it expands that way and your idea of doing it first then highlighting and entering it is not something I would have ever thought of!!! This works great. Thank you so much for all your help.
I Like your idea
I like your idea.
No idea.
I have a not great account that gets cherry picked into extreme lateness. I don't mind if you cherry pick to get a decent doctor or two after having a ton of crappy ones but to cherry pick out all the good stuff and put the rest of us behind with all the bad ones is just wrong.
Idea - sm
I don't know logistically how to go about this, but as a sociology student I know there should be a way. What if we could somehow poll people to see if they approve of their records being sent overseas and use that in our letters?
I just got an idea
I have noticed that with every company i have worked for the general style has been not to reveal or encourage the MTs to talk. This is totall a divide and conquer thing. It would be nice if we could all (safely without lossing our jobs) list ourselves somewhere and what company we work for. If things are bad for everyone and we could team up...who knows.....
An idea...
You can if you have the disc. I'm not personally sure about those programs, but, when I first started with my co. I took my computer there for them to load because it was in same state and not too far away. Anyway, when I bought new computer, I just had them overnight me the disk instead of taking new computer to them. Then they walked me through some final details. So, if you can't transfer it, that might be a thought.
An idea
Let's face it, they want us to wipe their noses for them.
I don't blame you for being upset at all, but it won't do any good to talk to your OM. They'll do whatever the dictators ask.
When that happens to me, I get upset for a few hours, grumble to myself, then stick a post-it note near my computer screen, and after a couple of days, it's habit and I don't think about it anymore.
I like that idea.
I like it indeed.
here's an idea -
and not off the subject. I was due for a new car but can't afford one now that my wages have been cut to match Indians. Toyota Camrys are made in Kentucky (and I think West Virginia, some parts) - yes it is a Japanese corporation but American workers do have jobs. Bumper stickers are a great idea. I had considered a billboard - I have no idea how much they cost. Hospital security would probably throw me out but I can walk across the street on public property.
They have no idea.
MD-created templates are extremely difficult and time-consuming to use. You are left to guess at what they mean, and then you get no feedback. They are probably so sure their bases are covered that they aren't even reviewing their reports anymore.
My sympathies. Good luck.
Another idea
First of all, sorry about the typos in my post above (it was the middle of the night).
You also might want to look into the many customer service jobs (call center jobs) you can do from home now as well.
Google it to find a list of legitimate companies.
Good luck in whatever you pursue!
One last idea
Go to options, and unclick where it says continue playback and see what happens. You want to talk slowing down, that's what the F keys did for me. Maybe you can figure out a good pattern of when to lift your foot. Maybe all you need is a rhythm.
I have an idea.......sm
Call and ask if that account is still a client and if you can have more of that work. Tell them how satisfied you are working for their company and how comfortable you were doing that particular account or worktype. Ask if there is anything he or she can do to help you out with this.
Do not talk about money or how much your line count has dropped!!!!
Just present it in a positive light and hopefully the supervisor or whoever will come through for you. I think your approach to the subject means everything. People would rather deal with others in a positive manner than have someone call and "complain".
Remember, be positive and ask for assistance. Good luck. I hope it works out for you.
I have no idea.
I'm wondering if maybe he understood exactly what the kids were saying and just chose to ignore them.
Maybe, maybe not.
I do know that the DMV here tests in English and in Spanish so maybe he doesn't have to speak or read English to get a license for driving a school bus. I really don't know.
The real problem is that a kid was having a medical emergency and the bus driver didn't really give a rip.
So instead of having one child on the bus in distress, it was all of the kids because they were so upset that he was ignoring this girl's problem.
I really like this idea. sm
One of the doctor's in the office I work for is my step-uncle. He told me recently that they brought in a consultant to help them learn how to run the office smoother. This is a practice that has been in business for 40 years. He and I don't talk business when we are together and I don't go to him if I have a complaint, just don't think it is fair to put him in that position. Some things I have been able to work out with the employees in the office but things like my paycheck..it is mailed to me..and I often don't get it until after I have e-mailed and faxed my invoice at least twice. Frustrating!
not odd, I have no idea either

I have no idea which FTP server it is. I was sent the link to the server and instructions on how to obtain files. I have talked to QA and she said she also believes it is a permission issue. I am headed to actually meet her and a few other in the company in a few weeks. So, hopefully, we will get it all worked out then. For now I just email her every morning the listing of the .wav files I downloaded and she erases them on her end. She says she does not mind and she knows I will be in her office in a few weeks anyway.
Thanks for all the help. I will google that and see what comes up. BTW how do I find out which FTP server it is I use? It just says ftp then a bunch of numbers.
I have no idea....
***Edited by Moderator***
It is not appropriate to request help for an employment test.
There is an idea.
I did manage to copy it over in word and sent it ot her that way. I will see if that works. Thanks.
