Xmas parties where the Prez gets silly,
company-covered bar tabs, having someone come and listen to your blanks, staff meetings, being able to look someone in the eye, your supervisor inviting everyone over to her house for brunch on Sunday. Having the choice whether to work in the office or work at home.
The downside? The typical problems working with a bunch of women. Then there was the fact that I was not a social butterfly and didn't like the endless requests for money to fund birthday, wedding, baby, sick, divorced, married parties, Tupperware, Chef this, Southern that yadda yadda yadda fests. The lunch you were so looking forward to no longer being the in fridge, but the wrapping is in the trash. A favorite reference book being found on someone else's desk at the other end of the hall. And she smokes. Ergo, your book now smells to high heaven because she sneaks her smokes in the office during her late night shift, and her nasty, smelly fingers have been all over it (only a nonsmoker will understand how awful this). And she claims she doesn't know HOW the book got there when you ask.
Would I do it all again? In a heartbeat.
I've become disillusioned with the prez myself and I voted for him... SM
TWICE!!! Now I just feel like I voted myself out of a job.
Thanks, Casey . . .
I appreciate you responding, and I agree about full compensation for editing services, but having done the job before, if someone wants full editing with feedback to the transcriptionist, I would not accept a position paying less than $20 an hour . . . even a full line rate just is not a fair wage for that type of editing, which is why I'm not an editor, I suppose (LOL). . . I do not see those positions advertised here.
As you said, I do need to be honest with her, and hopefully you are right about her not "pulling the rug out from under me" with the work.

You forgot Ben Casey, George Clooney ... sm
notwithstanding.
But actually, the first DR. KILDARE wasn't TV's Richard Chamberlain. Series was based on series of old movies (no age issue here ... first one came out same year my mom was born, around 1932 or 1933 or so). There, Dr. Kildare was played by Lew Ayres and Dr. Gillespie was played by Lionel Barrymore.
Docs were male, nurses all female and scurring around with, "Yes, doctor... No, doctor ... Right away, doctor."
well, i wanted casey to win but i am happy with the 2 who did. they both deserved it and surely bot

Born again
I am a Christian, so I understand witnessing to others; nevertheless, I have to say that I don't agree with that approach, because I've seen it fail before - not with everyone - but for the most part, that stance ends up driving people away rather than drawing them. People don't want to hear someone tell them they're going to hell because they're doing this, that, or the other. Maybe they do need to hear that from somebody, but it still comes across as judgmental, and being judgmental is something that Christians are NOT to be. The old saying "you can bring a horse to water, but you can't make him drink" applies here. He needs to understand that he can't force people to convert to Christianity just because he says all those things to them. Maybe you could suggest that he not come on so heavy, and instead try inviting people to visit his church, and leave it at that.

Go to the bookstore. Buy him a book called "Jesus Freaks" (I am serious). He will love it. Then ask him about the book. Whether he is Buddhist, Christian, or atheist, it is always a great gift to have someone listen to your view. Americans view themselves as a Christian nation, and you just might learn something. keep an open mind, and stick to the subject of the book. Good luck and I hope the experience is a good one for both of you. The book is very interesting in the depth of human compassion and passion - no matter what your personal beliefs are.
I was born at 6:40 p.m. but am

What is his age now and when was he born?

Hey, I WAS born in the south and I don't get it either.
But then again, I guess south Florida is not considered "The South," right?
I live in conservative N FL now and well, it's different..
You and msbeanctr are right on target and very eloquet.
If you know the time of day you were born, sm
please tell us, and if you are a day person or a night person. I was born at 11:50 a.m., and am very much a night person. I don't seem "with it" until noonish every day.
I've always wondered if our birth time might be indicative of what hours we function best (or whatever hours we prefer to function).
Let's see!!!
Born in the early AM and that is when I
function best.
Born at 9:36 a.m. - Day person. nm
I was born at 1:17 am, Night Owl here.

My daughter was born at 1:28 a.m. and if she is
doesn't even get in the shower till oh, about 9:00 p.m. And she sleeps till 1 or 2 p.m. if she doesn't have to work. Drives me nuts! But then, I was born at 7:00 a.m. and I like to get up early and then am falling asleep by 10, 11 p.m. at the latest.
Born at 1:23 p.m. and definitely a night owl! nm

Were you born yesterday?
Please state what you KNOW and back it up by naming the facility.
Where on Earth were you born?
I was born at Fort Leonardwood, Missouri - my papa was in the Army. How about you?
Kittens being born..HELP...
any advice on what to do with these kittens? Mom has decided to have them in a paper grocery bag (did not like any of the places we had set up for her!) She is just a kitten herself, a stray who showed up pregnant. One has already been stillborn, not sure how many more to follow! I know to keep the other cats away from her, but I have got appointments in town all day and can't just have her in a paper sack? Is it okay to put her and the sack into one of the boxes or what? Any help would be appreciated...TIA, the new grandma!
just those born from 1946 to 1964
ages 41 to 59
too many "rug rats" here.
MY baby boy born 12/17/75, what a treasure. :) nm

I guess pedophiles are born that way too. Just can't help themselves and
Gays are pushing their lifestyle. I prefer don't ask don't tell and for gawd's sake don't make a movie about cowboys and gay sex.
I was born 4:31 p.m. and most definitely am a night person.

My niece was born at 4:16 this morning.
My sister in law gave birth to my niece at 4:16 this morning and I am sure that people will raise their eyebrows everytime she tells someone her DOB.

My daughter was born with hydrocephalus
and is shunted. Two years ago on our way to the Milwaukee Zoo she had an extremely abrupt shunt failure (fine that morning, and then a seizure and starting to lose consciousness in the van.. just out of the blue), and ended up with a helicopter ride back to Madison and into surgery. Every day that I drop her off at school, I worry about if that will happen again, if they will recognize what's going on. She has a medical bracelet, and we've talked to the school and the teachers many times about it, but it still drives me crazy not to be able to be with her and see how she is. I do know that even though they have her whole history in front of them, she was still rollerblading and doing tumbling, etc., in gym class, which I didn't know about, and considering she has the shunt on the back of her head, it would have been nice to know. We won't have those problems at home.
You can be born gay or with an attraction to goats. You just don't follow through
on your instincts and attractions and sodomize the person/animal you are attracted to.
Born at 7 p.m. and definitely prefer the mornings. I think it's an age thing though.
Great sunrise and new hopeful expectations for the day.
Born at 8:30 pm, totally a night person, NM

Born at 10:46 a.m. and defininitely a morning person!!

That's very interesting! I don't remember what time I was born
I am very much a night person & like you, my brain does not seem to fully function until noon-time! If my memory serves me correctly, I believe I was born in the wee hours of the morning (basically the middle of the night) I'm curious to read what the other posters have to say! Great thread!
Agree! That was big when my DD was born. People naming

yep, she grew up poor... born 1935, so I'm sure sm
the economy wasn't exactly booming then, and they were certainly poor. My dad born in 1923, and HE would wash old bread wrappers to use as lunch bags, and then wash em again and use them till they fell apart. Why buy plastic bags when they come free on the bread?
My mom hoarded things too - also born 1935 - sm
when she died in 09/04 we found a lot...I already knew she hoarded paper towels and toilet paper (over 40 rolls of each in the house for 2 people); we found about 48 bags of Hersey nugget candy in one of the closets, about 40 boxes of zip lock bags, canned vegetables, etc. My dad and I divided up everything he wanted to get rid of between himself, my 2 brothers and me, so we did a 4-ways split of a lot of kitchen items. Also found about 10 boxes of brand new unopened perfumes, Poison, Chanel No. 5, etc. My mom would use things, clothes, etc. until they basically shredded. I don't hoard though I do have a lot of stuff, clothes from high school and college I just don't want to part with, lots of shoes too...I did get rid of a lot of my clothes but still have quite a bit left which I doubt I will part with for a long time, I am hoping my daughters get some use from my clothes as I have some very good stuff saved. But its interesting how older people (women mainly) tend to hoard. My mom was also compulsive about checking the doors each night to see if they were locked, she'd check them 3-4 x before going to bed. I wish she was still here so I could watch her do all the stuff she used to do and rag on her for having 40 rolls of toilet paper like I used to. She'd always say, but it was on sale....
My daughter received SSI as she was born with a handicap, but (sm)
I believe it did go by what you made. I was a single parent at the time. Are there any associations maybe that are affiliated with your son's illness who might be able to point you in the right direction. Maybe help with prescriptions, if he takes any? I really feel for you, I know it's rough.
