Is your hubby making that much a year? sm..
Is he telling you to earn that much or is he being funny? Just my situation, but my hubby would never tell me how much money I had to make or whether I should work part time or full time. Life is too short to work 7 days a week or 12+ hours daily for the almighty dollar!
Nope, my hubby picked mine up last year and
hopefully his deductions will clear out mine this year.
Darling hubby, dumb hubby, dufus hubby. Take your pick. I have been known to use all three--

Probably staining the new fence we put up to keep our dogs in and other dogs out.
The neighbor dog won't stop trying to attack our dogs, so we put up a nice big fence. Should do the trick. Doesn't keep the rabbits out, though. We'll BBQ, too. Can't go far. Hubby is on call for the weekend with his job.javascript:editor_insertHTML('text',' ');

Your hubby must my hubby's twin. sm
He can't find anything or put anything away either. He did learn a long, long time ago to empty his pockets, though. I have a nice big doghouse where he spends with his dog with things get too hot. Or, he can sleep in his corvette, but it gets a little cramped in there!
It is not hubby, is her father, but not hubby. nm

Ask a tax guy. Since you pay rent, I would think so

MT for rent?
MTSO 1 needs MT but for some reason hasn't been able to fill the position(s) so subcontracts with MTSO 2 to use #2s employees for #1s work. MTSO 2 goes and hires MTs who will remain employees of MTSO 2 but do all their work through MTSO 1's server.
Anyone heard of something like this? They do not disclose the name of MTSO 1 when asked.
Why? Except for the rent all the rest is the same everywhere.

Anyone here rent a computer from MQ? I have a ?...
Did you fill out paperwork before you rented the computer? Did they immediately start deducting the cost from your pay for rental?
I've never filled out any paperwork for my computer, it was just mailed to me. Haven't seen rental deductions either. Did I do something wrong? 
No you didn't. You said you won't rent from him
.
Can you rent a car for about the same amount? sm
That way you could come and go as you pleased!
No rent that I know of, but cheaper to buy used on e-bay. nm

Yup! And newbies have to pay the rent and eat, too -
.
How do you rent a car without credit card?
I only use my debit card now. However, how do you rent a rental car without a credit card?
My rent, alone, is $1400. Including sm
utilities and everything else, probably about $3600, and I live alone.
For most the mortgage/rent is the most expensive.

Maybe it's paid for so she doesn't have to pay any rent.
And that's why she kept it. She did say in a post she doesn't earn much doing medical transcription. At least it's a roof over head head. Cut her some slack would ya?
Are there any places that rent C-phones? sm
I don't mean companies that you work for, but some independent company that you could rent one from. I had one for a long time, but then the company I work for went to wav files, and foolishly, I got rid of my C-phone. Now I have an opportunity at another company that requires a C-phone, but they don't supply them or rent them. Before buying something and then finding out the company stinks, I thought it would be nice to rent one. Maybe this is a farfetched idea, but thought I'd ask.
Thanks.
Well...let's see. In 4 years rent in our area has increased at least $500/mo.
Health insurance has gone up. Cost of prescription drugs has increased. Food has increased. Gasoline prices are now over $3 a gallon ($2.69 a gallon BEFORE the storm). Now they're saying that we can expect a 20% increase in our electric bills and up to 71% increase in our heating/fuel bills. All these increases and I've had a 40% CUT in pay. You can believe any paper, magazine, TV news show, or politician you want to believe. I believe my paycheck and my bills.
Yes, hound the renters every 5 days and at least get 1/2 of their rent
and then collect again in another 2 weeks.
Also, is the house a done deal? Can you back out of the purchase even if you took a loss? That might be the better way to go.
Lastly, you said your SUV took 30 bucks in gas. Is your SUV paid for and if so, can you sell it to get something more economical on gas? That might be an option until things get better.
Truly, these are just suggestions, meaning no disrespect.
Again, best of luck with everything!
What's *realistic* is that after I've paid my rent, (sm)
my utility bill, my car insurance, my ISP & phone bills, my medical co-payments, dental bill, etc., I usually have a choice between eating or buying gasoline. So currently my car sits in the carport, fuel-less and rarely driven, but insured - just so that I can continue my close relationship with Chef Boy-Ar-Dee and day-old (or older) bread.
If you think you can claim a part of rent as propety tax you can't.
It probably asks if you rent because then there would be no property taxes to claim. If you owned then there would be property taxes. It s/l it is walking you through the steps. You can claim property taxes for vehicles, but you have incurred no property taxes as you don't own your residence. I'm sure property taxes are considered when they decide how much to charge for rent, but who ever owns the property is paying the taxes and not you.
i'd suggest rent space on a system
I'd suggest you rent space on a system and skip the inital outlay of your money, tying up a phone line at home for the doc to call in.
A lady in the Seattle, Washington area has a system she rents space on. You can contact her at talk2meinc@aol.com
Good luck!!
If the softener doesn't work, then rent a steamer. nm

Made $5,500/yr. with full benefits at hospital. Rent 175.00. Car 75.00
I think back then we made more than the average secretary and the cost of living (Morgantown, WV) was low. I just remember that I had raises every year, one for performance and another for cost of living raises. My pay went up a few thousand every year with the raises, that much I recall. This was in 1977. West Virginia University Hospital. We had to be there at 8:15, one hour paid lunch, two 15 minute breaks and went home at 3:15. My supervisor sometimes took naps in the employee lounge. She was kick back. I learned how to speed read by researching Dorland's but terminology was not too out of the ordinary from what I recall. People who were ill back then had the usual problems (gallbladder, kidney stones, etc).
Question inside about Renting from Rent-A Center. sm
What was your expeience? Is it very expensive? I was thinking about renting a laptop computer to use for work on vacation for a couple of weeks and not ready to invest in purchasing a new laptop yet. Can you rent things for about a month or do they require longer?
Thanks for any help you guys might give.');>![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/shake.gif")
Any ideas on how to get a cheap rental car? I haven't had to rent a car
in a very long time.
thanks so much!
OK. Now if your husband is bringing you down by his mental illness and not paying rent
(is husband able to work? how deep is this mental illness? did he have money to pay rent and spent it elsewhere?) then maybe you should think about leaving him rather than placing your kids in any kind of foster care. That has to be traumatic but then so does living on the street. Speaking of placing your children in foster care while you get yourself OK in the head, what is your problem at this point. You see, if there is a lot of arguing and a dysfunctional family living on the streets, then foster care to permanent placement may be better for them. I just don't quite understand how you got into this mess and if these are mental health issues on both your part and your husband's I would look into placing the children. BTW, how old are they?
So all things considered if you don't have any issues other than depression because of a lack of a place to live and your husband's mental health, I would go to a family member or church and BEG for help sorting your life out. If there is more than that going on, including maybe substance abuse along with permanent mental health issues that will keep you from caring for your children, yes I would seek placement for them. And I would seek PERMANENT placement rather than foster care which I would think would be more traumatic for your children.
Yes, 13.50 wouldn't rent you a studio apartment where I live. And agree

True but that is to cover the expenses like rent, office supplies, sm
manager salaries. That does not include payroll that is based on service.
A good example woould be this: You are starting a book store. You need to plan the original inventory and six months worth of expenses. If you sell that inventory, you use the money from that to buy more books. If you do not sell any at first, you can stay in business for six months while you get noticed.
With transcription or any service business, you need enough in the bank to cover the same expenses, those that can keep you afloat while building your client base. However, you only hire more people as you get more customers. The payroll does not figure into the 6 months as it is based on what you provide, whereas the 6 months takes into account what it takes to get it going even if you do not have 1 employee.
Very, very few companies can have $800,000 lying around. If they did, they probably would need to invest it in equipment or spend it in other ways or the IRS would consider it profit and tax the heck out of it!
Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc. Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.
to cowgirl - Last I knew, last year the job paid $25,000/year no taxes, etc.
The hospital was bombed about a year ago, but not a lot of damage, very minimal damage.

After I went to a 1-year MT course at a vocational school, it was so bad that I did the 2-year colle
Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
Might be able to rent one from an office supply or office machine repair shop

dogs
I have a lhasapoo. He is MY baby of 8 years!!
dogs!
My little one is So used to his routine! If I am in the middle of a long report I don't want to stop and walk our mile, we wait and he licks my legs, but for now he is pacified in the window seat looking at the world.

Try dogfriendly.com they list hotels, parks. its a friendly site! Also just Google petfriendly and you will get many choices:}
One of my dogs..
also coughed and hacked and made all sorts of snorting noises after drinking water. She, also, did not actually vomit. I have her on Benadryl twice a day and that has seemed to cut down on these "attacks" after drinking water. She is also a rescue dog, is about 10 years old (as far as we can tell), and is a Lhasa Apso. She is healthy and happy so I do not worry about the coughing/hacking spells.
BTW, as far as rescue animals, I believe they are the BEST. The two dogs and one cat that I have right now are all rescues. It is as if they know what their fate was and every day they are appreciative to you for sparing them and giving them a loving home.
You will be rewarded for your kindness!
Dogs
Each dog has a personality just like each human. There are some that are inherently nasty, such as pitbulls they are bred to kill. Sorry plain truth, does that mean that all pitbulls are bad NO! But a pitbull bites and holds, they don't and won't release until they darn well please. I have had my share of them when I was on the police dept. One was locked onto a lab and we couldn't pry him off with nightsticks in his mouth. While waiting for a tazer with guns at his head I remembered an old cure and had someone get vinegar and throw it in his eyes. Released in nothing flat and his owner was then able to control him. But had to break his concentration. You have to look into breeds, they are bred for a specific purpose and that is a trait that is in them. I prefer German Shepherds, I have 3 wimps one over 100 pounds. But he by nature heards my kids when he is uncomfortable with what they are doing. You can make a dog mean for certain, but some dogs can't be made nice either kind of like serial killers something in the genes.
You know NOTHING about me or my dogs.
I bet my dogs have more manners than you AND your dogs have.
Your dogs are probably
Shock collars are cruel. I feel sorry for your dogs.
This country has....
more safety nets than almost anywhere else on earth. There are food stamps, WIC, food pantries, missions, churches, etc. I don't believe there are policies in place to purposely make sure children go to bed hungry. There MUST be some personal responsibility here. I don't hear much out of you along that line, just blame. CEOs, big corporations, blah blah blah
what right do we have to tell another country what to do?
x
What Country do you come from?
You don't sound like you come from the USA.
Isn't this the same country that
our young men gave their lives for back in the 60s and early 70s, in order to fight communism, and now is a communist country? These greedy companies would send work to a Taliban country if they thought they could save a buck! They are causing the downfall of the USA.
My hubby is..
In the Army. He makes more money and carries the benefits...medical and dental. This is actual the ideal job for me as we move a lot. I stay home and watch the kids too, so I am not making a lot of money at this.
