I just think that's a silly reason to not like someone - their religious faith. sm

I don't understand this at all. If we were to go by someone's values, we wouldn't like any of the bedhoppers in Hollywood. It seems to me that that would be the true criteria for deciding whether you like someone or not - not their religion.

have some faith in yourself
whatever you do, do not give up. You could look at it this way -possibly someone higher up (God) stepped in for you to stop you from making a mistake with the new company. You can call the older company and withdraw your resignation. Remember, be true to yourself. In your heart, if you know that you did your best on the test, that is all that matters. Give yourself a break. Take a breath, and take the next step.
this isn't a religious discussion...sm
I didn't ask for *religious* advice, I simply asked for opinions...that's not religious...I know what God thinks about this subject...
unless you look like Faith Hill you can't get away with (sm)
trendier clothes or the belly showing. You'll just end up looking like somebody "trying" to look younger.
Losing faith...
Well every year I think things can't be any worse than the last. This year dealing with disturbing financial woes, working too much and a rebellious daughter. How do people some people go through all this and still keep their faith in God and life in general. Sometimes I just want to throw my hands up in the air and just forget it.
Sorry, just got more bad news and here alone working and needed to vent.
Keeping faith
When I am facing adversity (everyday), I often think about all of the times in the past that I felt like giving up for one reason or another. No matter how bad the situation was...SOMETHING worked out. When I say worked out, I don't necessarily mean it worked out the way I wanted it to.
Example: I was in a situation where I was behind on my car payments and tried every avenue available to try to come up with the money. I prayed some serious prayers hoping for a miracle. Well, my car was repossessed. I now had terrible credit and didn't know what I was going to do. At this time, I was working outside of the home and had a 6 year old who had to be taken to and picked up from school. My car was repossed on a Wednesday and on Friday I found a guy in the newspaper classifieds who was selling an 8 year old toyota for $3000. I did not have this kind of money. I called him and asked if he would consider taking payments on the car and I explained my situation to him. He told me he did not know me and could not take payments. I went to bed that night in tears. At about 11pm that night my phone rang and it was the guy asking for my address. He had had a change of heart and wanted to bring me the car. Not only did he reduce the price of the car, but after I had made 3 payments on the car he called me and told me he wanted to come by and do a bill of sale so I could have the car (no more payments).
Another.. I also had lots of trouble with my young son in school. He has been suspended 3 times for excessive talking, getting out of his seat and being disrespectful. He is now in the third grade. I took him to the doctor one day and saw four disabled kids in the waiting room. Two of them were much older than my son, wearing diapers and in special wheelchairs. It may sound foolish, but, I was thankful that my son is healthy and able to run around to get into trouble. Some of us think we are going through a lot, but we really aren't when you compare your situation to someone else's. Life isn't easy for most people. Be thankful that things are as well as they are.
I have several other examples, but I'll spare you. My point is...we are still living and breathing and whether we realize it or not, things always "work out". I still have that car which is still very reliable and has gotten me where I needed to go. It's not nearly as nice as the car I lost but I was and am still very thankful to you know who for that situation. Hang in there guys.

 I used to work with you when your husband was stationed at Offutt. I sure would be interested in hearing from you wherever you are??
A doctors faith
Am thinking of going around town and trying to drum up some more business. A few questions first!?! What does a doc think about hiring locally vs. a big transcription co.? Would he worry about security? or the cost (so many doctors have their office staff type)? What would be my hook or pitch? Do they just follow the other docs in the building and who they use? Hmmmm. Any thoughts would be appreciated! 
i had 2 docs off for the religious holiday. nm
;
Um, if he were all that religious, he wouldn't be abusing you sm
so NO, switching religions isn't going to stop abuse.
And what do you BELIEVE religiously? IMO, religion isn't meant to be handed down like the family china. Religion is a way of life and a system of belief and worship. I don't understand when somebody says they'd change just like that, as if it were akin to changing jobs or changing the model of car you drive.
Thx, not religious at all, but thanks for the good wishes! sm
I know it was meant well. Good wishes to all here. Peace.
I love "Hope and Faith".
:}
Yes, it is sad, but people also need to reevaluate their faith. sm
Part of what's sad to me is reading today that many are saying they don't know if they even believe in God now. They were praising him and saying see, God answers prayers! and see, God did a miracle, but when the tide turned, they threw God out.
For those who first said how this was a sign of God answering prayers, maybe they need to ask themselves what about the prayers that were said for the one who was initially reported dead -- were we to believe that God simply did not answer that prayer?
There's a great book that makes you think about these things - When Bad Things Happen to Good People by Harold Kushner. His child died despite his prayers, and he talks about what God will and will not do.
My heart goes out to all of these folks. I hope they don't let failing of people destroy their faith in God.
Dont loose faith
God is with us always, I know it is hard to realize that but our minds are finite and He is infinite. He can do all things. Enlarge your vision, put all your faith in Him even in the bad times. I know it is hard I have just gone through an extremely hard year myself dealing with anxiety and a mother in deep depression, but He got me through it and is healing me and my mother. Take it day by day and do not loose your faith. He said "Be of good cheer for I have overcome the world."
Sorry do not know what verse that is but I know that it is in the Bible, in the New Testament. Have a blessed day!
I do MT and make about $35-40 an hour. It can be done and is out there. Keep the faith! nm

I'm sorry too. Please have faith. You have lots of experience.

religious reasons and not wanting to live together in sin

What religious holiday was yesterday in which one could not work???
He said his religion was celebratting a special day, yom kippur? ramadan? Anyone know? I have never heard of a week day religious holiday when one could not work.
I might use that excuse.
All religious topics go on the Religion board. (SM)
Stop now with this or I will delete the whole thread.

All the religious talk in her post and on 'her' -
(doubt it) website definitely raises a red flag. Putting that stuff into sales spiels seems to be a pretty good gimmick for realin' in the suckers.

Homeless man receives rewards worth $4,000 for honesty
7/25/2006, 9:55 a.m. ET
The Associated Press
DETROIT (AP) — A homeless man is finding out that it pays to be honest.
Charles Moore, who found and turned in nearly $21,000 worth of U.S. savings bonds, has received rewards worth $4,000, The Detroit News reported Tuesday.
Moore, 59, was originally given $100 from the son of the deceased bond owner, but residents here and in other states decided that wasn't enough.
A Belleville man sent him eight trash bags full of returnable bottles and a bowl of coins. Three people pledged a combined $2,500, while two Troy businessmen donated $1,200, a shopping spree at a men's clothing store and a lead on a job.
"I was thankful for it," said Moore, who lost his job in Toledo, Ohio, as a roofer, moved back to his native Michigan and can't find a job.
David C. Smith, of Albuquerque, N.M., gave Moore $1,000. Smith said he and his fiancee wouldn't have thought twice about what to do if the bonds had belonged to them.
"We would have given him the whole amount, period," Smith said. "No questions asked."
Moore said he plans to use the money to find an apartment.
He was searching for returnable bottles in a trash bin when he made the discovery last week. Moore took the bonds to a 24-hour walk-in homeless shelter, where a staffer made some phone calls and tracked down the owner's family.

I'm not going to remove this thread but ask that religious discussion be moved

Silly??
WMD, does not seem silly to me when that was our justification to send our troops to Iraq..why is it silly?? It was a lie and you Chimp Boy lovers have to try to hang onto anything you can to back up the jerk for his invasion into a soverign country that meant no harm to us, in fact, we were their friends just a few years back, even sold WMD to Saddam, which we then destroyed in the Gulf War and during our sanctions in the 1990s..
Silly you

It may look silly, but, (sm)
you could try using a pair of toddler training pants (or something similar) while you are supervising him. I have a female dog that was injured in a fight with one of my other dogs and she would not stop licking the wound. Since it was on her shoulder, I got one of my grandsons old shirts and put it on her, didn't look all that good, but it did the trick long enough to get it to heal. I would suggest you make sure it is something fabric, as the disposable types may be too easy to chew up and swallow, causing a whole new set of problems to deal with. By the way, let me just say thank you for being a good pet owner and having your pet neutered.
Not silly
Why is this silly? If you do type those without getting paid for it, basically you are working for free. Do you think management works for free? How about the CEO? As an IC getting paid on production, any typing without being pain, is me giving them my precious time for free.
I'm not being silly
I should have removed "you" and inserted "I."
I have nothing but the greatest admiration for anyone who has the time and patience to learn these programs, the memories to retain the information (tpwbttop ...), and the brain power to read quickly and make the decision over what you what lickity split.
I'm glad to finally know why I hated school so much. 
to Silly Me
You've got that right 
Not silly. Go for it!
I have around 50 pair of underwear for the same reason and enough clothes to wear a different outfit every weekend for a year I am sure! I hate to do laundry and at times would just rather buy new. LOL!
Silly Me
I should have known this. Thanks for the info.
silly
Maybe he got into the medicine storage room? LOL I used to type for a doc that would enunciate words so funny that he sounded like he was acting. I think those ER docs get so busy they have to get silly for awhile to make sure they don't go bonkers!!!
silly
Doc dictates, " He presents looking like a kidney stone". 
THIS IS GETTING SILLY NOW
The admin. wants to put this entire thing on me. She is stating things in comments that are so wrong.
You girls take it easy. Thanks for all your responses. I know my business, contracts with ICs, pays, etc and I do not need this stress and the admin is wanting me to somehow show her things that Doris Latta has created in Word or something? Not sure........... but I was able to clear this up with the Labor Board and everyone else that had to have a response.
So 10-4 and I am out! XO 
ha ha...don't you look silly now
to look bad...when it was you that were wrong....ha ha
Open mouth...insert foot.
probably silly but.....
what does the little fire thing beside some of the posts mean?
thats silly. what are they afraid of if
I mean come on, we won't become millionaires. There should NOT be a limit on how much you make. A raise per year for cost of living, a raise or higher rate for experienced and good MTs, and also a raise for putting up with the BS.
silly boycott
If you observe the boycott, a- you bought gas yesterday, b- you don't need to buy gas.
Personally, I know the boycott (even if everyone follows it) won't work. Someone, somewhere WILL need gas, then everyone will head back to the pumps. My job is over 50 miles away, and I drive a truck (no I'm not changing, i LOVE my truck), so I have to gas up every week without fail, and I gas up when my truck says to, not when some unknown person says to (not referring to the OP, referring to whoever started this movement). Plus, I work in oil and gas, have to support my OWN measly paycheck (and yes, I get paid peanuts).
Sorry, just sounding off ... feel free to ignore me. Blast me if 'you' (the unknown you) must, but I won't pay attention, that's just me :)
Now you're just being silly. LOL
It doesn't make you seasick and doesn't slow the process down at all, especially when you consider how much more productive you are without having to memorize everything. The glance down is maybe an inch if your windows are positioned right. I usually remember the first three or four characters of the shortcut, so it's not like there's a long list, maybe one or two to choose from.
That is silly and obviously that recruiter is not an MT or sm
she would know the benefit of hiring someone that has acquired some speed. The formula for speed though is knowledge. The less you have to look up things, the faster you can go--no stopping to look up--and there is a point where you can do that for the majority of your work. Unfortunately, many in the workforce today are newbies and they have not gotten there yet...but the day could come where they will. Speed means a lot, but bottom line is knowledge, accuracy and speed. Put them all together, know the account, and you are set to go.
you can't have stock in NP org silly!
hey, are you talking about that company who makes employees sign a contract not to talk about them on any internet forum?
you mean the one where the account managers get bonues and are investors and don't care if you meet your line count as long as their assigned accounts get TAT met so they get monthly bonuses too and screw you out of your bonuses?
Oh, well, why didn't you say so! Nay, I couldn't do it. I have e-t-h-i-c-s.
Silly, I think the poster was
the fact that most of us are looking for jobs right now :-)
Don't worry, though I know that's silly to say.
About 20 years ago, I had an abnormal Pap. You probably will have what they call a punch biopsy next. Donein the office routinely. Just a little biopsy for further study. I actually had the idiot OB/GYN doctor call me at work as I was on my way out the door to tell me it was cancerous. Nearly died on the way home. It was nothing in the end. Normally if your punch biopsy is atypical, they will simply do a cone biopsy or LEEP procedure - done in same day surgery under anesthesia. Simple, painless, fast. They basically zap any abnormal tissue - very common in women, and normally simply the HPV virus. I had the procedure 20 years ago, was convinced that I would be dead by 40, but have had nothing but normal Paps for years since. Think positive. Hope I didn't freak you with details, but it sounded like you wanted to know what the next steps might be. They also will probably do a repeat Pap first, as LOTS of labs turn up false positives on Paps. Try not to worry - very common and the cone biopsy is not only diagnostic, but normally curative as well. Feel free to email me if you would like to talk more about it. Praying for you. Please keep us posted.
Obviously pro AAMT - that was a silly
comment to make - do you think most people are gonna make a recommendation to something that they are against???? Whatever...
A silly question, but
When you work for a company at home, do you have to take an hour for lunch or can you just work your 8 hours straight through and then quit? How exactly does it work if you are required certain hours and not lines..or hours/lines?? Thanks
sorry for the silly question but...
I don't recall ever hearing of them before. Are they commonly found in the New England area or just in the warmer parts of the country?
Silly girl
You're kidding? I really thought they were. What a silly girl to go through all that and not have a good crack at all his money. But then, she might be better off if she didn't marry him. This might make her rethink things.
Silly question
I'm new here and have a silly question, I'm sure. It's really only a matter of curiosity. What does the "sm" and "nm" you see on a bunch of messages mean? Thanks!
This may be a silly question, but......sm
Is there any way to get rid of the little paperclip dude in MS Word? He's driving me crazy today!!
