3rd-world MTs often sit shoulder-to shoulder,
with no partitions at all if they work in-house. At home, you-re right.... often 3 generations and 9 people living there.
PS: I like the Staples idea! There are some pretty good ones at Ikea, too. Who would ever know?

shoulder to cry on
I am really sorry that you are undergoing all of these stressors in your life. Can you get any financial help from your state/county right now, temporary - such as food stamps, help to pay your mortgage so you don't lose your house? Also, I would submit a claim to your insurance company disputing what they will pay and what should be paid, maybe that would get you some money for the doctors bills, etc. Years ago when I had two little ones, my husband was not working, we did get some temporary help from the state with food stamps, etc. Maybe one of your neighbors could rally for you and have a fund raiser to help you out, such as a dance with a DJ, where they charge admission and the money goes to your family to help pay the bills. I know they do that around here a lot. I know that depression can get the best of you and maybe you should talk to a pastor, your doctor, your employer, maybe someone can help you out.
I truly hope that things will get better for you and I send you a great big hug and tell you that even though in the darkest times, someone or something will surprise you and you will get through this. Take care and let us all know how you are doing.
Maybe selling some things in your house that you don't need would help you through this right now also. Good luck and I hope that your life will get easier and no one needs all of this at one time on their shoulders.
no, but with dislocated shoulder,
(surgically relocated),among numerous other injuries over the years. Its amazing what we can do when we have to. Take care of yourself!!

I have a spare shoulder!
Husband had health problems, we had 2 businesses, and then 9/11 hit and both businesses had NO income but we had lots of overhead! Ended up having to close businesses, declare bankruptcy, sell off almost everything, but managed to keep the house and an old vehicle with 200,000+ miles. Still paying the IRS. Believe it or not, it eventually gets better, although at one time I was hoping the IRS would just put us in jail for the taxes we couldn't pay so that at least we could have regular meals!
I need a shoulder to cry on as I feel I'm
1. I can't make my lines and lose my FT status.
2. My self-employed husband goes for open heart surgery. Thankfully, he's doing good, but the insurance only paid 1/4 of the hospital and doctor bills, even though it states up to $100,000 per event. They refused to pay the ambulance, didn't pay the doctors at all, and only paid the hospital 1/4 of what they charged. Why bother to pay for health insurance if they're going to renege (sic) on their agreement?
3. My credit rating has gone from excellent to fair since I am the only one working. I can't pay all the bills now until my husband goes back to work and then we have to wait 5 weeks for a paycheck from him. In the meantime, his truck payment, 2 mortgages 1st & 2nd, truck insurance, etc. must be paid to the tune of $3500 a month. I don't make that much a month plus I need another $500 for utilities and $1000 for life, health, disability insurance.
4. His brakes failed on his pickup when he was coming down our hill. Thankfully, he has the knowledge as a big truck driver, so he was not injured.
5. I decided to sell some extra things I have around here to make some money to help. I screwed it up and now am afraid to try again. Yet I have a houseful of "trinkets" to sell. I'm even thinking about selling some of our antique furniture, but am afraid I'll get ripped off.
This has not been a good year. I am trying not to break down in front of hubby, but I'm having a hard time keeping back the tears today. .
I bought one of those, but it hurts my shoulder.
They're awkward to shove around and very loud. The only reason I bought it was because my good vacuum was in the shop. (12 year old Electrolux) Strange how different perception can be from one person to another. My husband keeps trying to give away my Dirt Devil, but I like it for cleaning out the cars.
Careful, you will hurt your shoulder.

No. Like dont strain your shoulder patting

back/shoulder/neck pain
last year I started out like that and so I checked the ergonomics of my keyboard, etc. I wound up moving my mouse to my left hand and that helped somewhat but later developed symptoms of a frozen shoulder. Do you get an extreme burning sensation? It took me a year to recover. I feel your pain.
Not me, but kids' friends have them. Behind your shoulder or on your ankle would be nice. nm

I carry my laptop in a case with a shoulder strap and...sm
put my keyboard and foot pedal in my rolling luggage. it has worked fine so far. I will say that the next upgrade for me will be a much lighter weight smaller laptop.
agree - many MT's have chronic back/neck/shoulder problems also

Neer's test is a shoulder impingement test
Don't think that has to do with the knee. How about "bucket handle tear" of the knee? Never heard of Neer having anything to do with the knee.
