In Reply to: Keyboard that the letters won't wear off - Kathy
I've had that problem in the past also. I found that carefully painting the keys with a clear nail polish works wonders.

What does wearing a vest have to do with it?

I can't stand wearing shoes.
Sometimes I'll wear socks in the winter if my feet get cold.
At this point I would seriously consider wearing pantyhose and going TO a job.
I said I wouldn't but this business doesn't appear to be getting better, just worse for those of us involved.
Letters wearing off on keyboard
I admit, I purchased a very inexpensive keyboard, but the letters have worn off within a month! In looking at other keyboards at different stores, it looks like they all have the same kind of stuck-on letters that would wear off pretty quickly. Can anyone recommend a keyboard that retains its letters for a very long time with a lot of use? Or has anyone tried the stickers they make to cover the keys?
I've been wearing a splint that's sorta like a retainer...sm
for years that my orthodontist made for me. I've had it replaced about every 5 years or so. It works great! The funny thing is that I pick at him that when he put me in braces at age 12 he never dreamed that 30 years later I'd STILL be coming to see him. I do have fun when I go see him because invariably there's some pre-teen or teenager who asks "so how long have you been a patient?" and when I tell them 30 years they look horrified. Then I explain that I was in braces for 18 months, retainers for a year and then returned for TMJ problems at age 20 and have been in and out every few years since then. They always give a big sigh of relief then! 
That's true. I wouldn't mind wearing the
burka thing or whatever you call it. I can't have direct sunlight on my skin anymore anyway (melanoma survivor). I would fit right in except for the freckles, green eyes and strawberry hair. I did hear there are very good horseback riding places and that would be a big draw for me of course, as I would be a real cowgirl if I could. Just don't live in the right place or time for that matter.
Chill out, all she is doing is wearing a color she obviously likes -
and black in high school, some pretty wild clothes too. Doesn't sound like she is going goth or anything. Lots of girls wear black, nothing wrong with it. Remember pick your battles and don't blow the little things out of proportion.....as for rebelling I would not consider this anywhere close to rebelling.
I wouldn't suggest wearing them while you work.
Magnets and computers don't go well together.
I've been wearing them for a year while I work with no....sm
problem. They aren't that strong.
Quit wearing sexy clothes when you

Hhhmm, and what color suit are you wearing

Whatcha wearing and who you're emailing
I had read someone's complaints about complaining yesterday, while browing the board. I got an email from one of my girlfriends just now, telling me she had been called in for receiving too many emails and given a 90 day verbal warning. I used to work for a company that told me I made too many personal phone calls and worried I was not dressed professionally enough. I used to have to pick up the CEO's cleaning and make sure all the buttons were on his shirts and there were no wrinkles. Filling him a pitcher of water on his desk and leaving no fingerprints on a glass to go with it. Let's remember that, today, as we sit in our sweats, being comfortable, or if the phone rings and we visit for 10 minutes, or if we get a cute email and want to send it to friends. No boss towering over us......at least in our home.
Pick him up wearing a trenchcoat and spiked heels.

Never thought of wearing scrubs, but if you're comfy, sm
that's all that matters. I did the heels and hose thing for over 20 years when I worked in an office and/or hospital, now my "uniform" consists of a t-shirt and shorts until it gets really cold, then I begrudgingly give up my shorts and go with sweat pants, although not the kind with the elastic at the ankle ... hate those. I'm tall, so usually most pants end up looking like capri pants anyway, so guess I should just cave in and buy capris.
A lot of people think because I work at home, I sit in jammies all day, but that idea doesn't even appeal to me. Plus, first thing in the morning, I have to walk my doggie, and I really do not think the neighbors need or want to see me walking around in my PJs. But it is a personal choice ... if jammies or scrubs or even typing in the nude make you happy and productive, I say go for it. :-)
My professionalism is not determined by what I wear. The UPS or Fed Ex guy would probably fall over dead if I answered the door in heels and pearls. :-) But they both comment on how happy I always seem, and that must be a reflection of my love for my job and the comfort of being in the environment I choose to create for myself. :-)
Yikes .. this was supposed to be a short little post supporting the lady who wanted to wear scrubs. Guess it's not only the docs I type for who are long-winded ... oops!
Happy Saturday everyone!
I just had the surgery and my doc has me wearing Occunomix Neoprene gloves
I found them only on-line and at a surgical supply store, but they are great as far as I am concerned.
