I don't do VR right now, but when I did I would only go through it once.  Only on a very long one would I ever go back through it again and only if I had a problem would I listen to the whole thing again.  I started out doing that and realized I was never going to make above $4 an hour if I kept that up.

I proof after, but would love to proof during.  I'm working on it.  I'm curious as to what percentage of MTs proof as they go or proof at the end?

Thx for responding.

I don't see the message "lie down and take it" but rather, "change is coming". The above idea that we have to change with the times is paramount but sometimes I think there are those who want to stop all change from occurring and that's just not realistic.

However, I think we do agree that there is change in the air and it's up to the individual to find the best way for them to adapt to change and still be of benefit to their employer and self.

...and now that I've cleaned my office, I can't find the book I read it in!

I did look up an association of science writers and they have lots of info, and this page seems to have a link to the discussion of whether science writers need a Master's degree. It's too early in the a.m. for me to have read it, though!

Finally, the animals win one.  Every time some "little darling" mangles a dog or a cat and they get bitten, scratched, it is always the "mean dog's fault".  I'm glad you had your camera on for proof.  I had two collies that were behind TWO locked fences and one of my neighbors called me up, screaming that my female had bitten her 2 yo toddler.  I asked what her 2 yo toddler was doing running around loose outside without supervision and what he was doing on my property in the first place.  I told her about the two locked gates and chain link fences, and she said he managed to stick his hand between the posts and the gates and was bitten.  She thought I was going to "come apart", but instead I went on the attack.  I told her she needed to watch her kids and keep them out of my property and she wouldn't have a problem.  Her 2 yo was trespassing on my property and I wanted him kept off of it from now on!  She backed down in a big hurry.  People make me crazy!

would end up making you look bad......

move forward - for every door that shuts, another one opens, I promise....*S*

you treat it like a business - learn the law, get everything in writing, charge enough rent to cover the hidden costs.  I've been landlording for several years now and I highly recommend nolo.com a site with good legal information for non-lawyers, especially a book that outlines the landlord-tenant laws in each state in layperson language - It's been very useful to me, kept me out of trouble at least once. 

Or just call a realtor and let them handle it and add their fee to the rental as mentioned above. 

I am in a similar situation.  I have no idea what to do either but don't want to turn either one away.  One I have had for 3 months but get paid equivalent to once a month which sent me on my job search in the first place.  Two of the jobs called me back and they both want FT.  One is more flexible and the work is easier but the other seems more reliable and answers e-mails right away.  They both have direct deposit which is huge for me.   The one I have now doesn't.   I am so confused.  Need to make a decision today.  Maybe we should team up?

Let us know how what you decide.  I will be checking back to see how things went.  Good luck.:)

you said you'd wait until you become financially secure before getting married so you could then could leave him and be okay $$-wise.

I left after 13 years of marriage and we pretty much had nothing....my sanity being numero uno.  The stats are this....that after 5 years of divorce, women are in better shape than men financially and emotionally.  That's what I've read and that's how it also happened for me.  I was in better shape than him 5 years later.  So, don't undercut yourself.  We can make it on our own whether we have a man in our life or not!!!!  It's an old wives tale from post WWII I do believe that women are not *complete* without a man and that is a total crock of s**t.....in my mind/heart/soul. 

the police got to the school so quickly that he was unable to carry out the *rest of his plan* thank God...those poor children suffered enough, thankfully he didn't have the chance to inflict any more harm on them...if you know what I'm talking about...I can't write it...it makes me sick to my stomach!

What is this world coming to when parents feel afraid to send their children to SCHOOL? We don't even let our 7 YO son play outside for 1 second alone, and we live in a quiet subdivision, and know all our neighbors...guess that's just it though, we THINK we KNOW them...anyway, it just breaks my heart and scares me to death...WE NEED TO BRING GOD BACK INTO THE SCHOOLS...we've *kicked* Him out...time to bring Him back...

I've been there but had to work outside the home. I had a slug of an ex who paid child support when "he had the money." I learned how to shop and ate whatever the kids left over in their dinner bowls. To this day I will not touch a Spaghetti-O. :)

First and most important is be a parent to your kids. Have fun with them,  but set limits with them and be a mom and not a friend. That's what they need. And NEVER, EVER, say a bad word about their father, no matter what, even if he bad mouths you.  My kids figured out what a slug their dad was on their own. They are both adults with kids of their own and I still refuse to bad mouth their father after nearly 20 years.
