a bachelor apartment.  It benefits me in the long run.

We didn't plant them, but they were probably about 5 to 10 years old when we bought the house.  We sold the house about 8 years later.  A couple of them at that time had already died, and they all died within a few years after that and had to be cut down.

They are very nice to look at and grow fast. I did not have any problems with "sucker shoots", they all grew upwards.  The trees also do take the wind very well, never any broken branches, etc.   If you need a quick fix, I would certainly recommend them.  Only downside is that they are not very long-lived.   

I would like to take a part-time in-house MT job.  Unfortunately, there a few jobs out there.  The local hospital has an ad for a full-time MT position.  I had applied there many years ago and withdrew my application.  The pay was quite low and the hours were not flexible at all.  For example, one hour for lunch meant one hour for lunch! 

I wondered if I should apply and tell them I am only interested in part-time, not full-time and see if they are interested.  Or should I just assume that they are still very rigid in their thinking?  I don't want to waste their time or mine but really would like to go in-house a few days a week at this point.

What do you think?  TIA

Well, I did it!  I start with SoftScript at the end of the month.  Although there are fears and all that, I have done the right thing getting out of the unhappy in-house job I was in.  It's a big gamble, but I feel right about it.

I'm posting here to tell you if you want an in-house job, check the job board at a certain hospital in Central Illinois, near Morton, IL.  A big, Catholic hospital.  I think there are actually 2 Transcription jobs open.  The benefist are great.  The rest of it is OK to absolutely unbearable.  You'll see.  I don't think I'm allowed to name the hospital.  But the job is on the job board of the hospital web site.  Good luck, I guess.  Pray for me, as I will for everyone who gave me advice. 

It depends on so many things.  I worked "in-house" (was actually working at home for a hospital that had in-house MT dept).  Got paid by the hour, so depending on your production, you might make more by working in-house (if you produced less), or more at home (if you had higher production).  It depends, too, on the hourly pay scale -- the hospital I worked for I think was pretty much known for lower pay, in all professions, at their hospital

However, with working at home, I always factored in $$ I was saving by not spending $$ for gas, etc., and since I did not drive, I did not have a separate car either (insurance, etc.), so this helped "raise" my salary.  Also, at home did not have to spend money for "work clothes", could wear my jeans, etc., again saving $$.

Also, even though I worked at home, and had "set hours", there was some lee-way in there, so if I felt tired, I could easily take a break and rest for a while -- much more relaxing.

I don't want them in mine.

one if my requirements was that there had to be a room that was decent enough to use for my office.  In order to qualify for the IRS home office deduction  you can't use your office as a bed room or anything else.  

I have the best view in the house in my office - I can see outside to the flower garden and also see the road so I can watch the people and cars going by during the day. 

He owns this house. It is too expensive for me to live here. It is an older home, needs work, expensive to heat. I work 5 pm to 2am. So evenings and nights. He puts kids to bed. I and kids wake up at 9am. Kids go to bed at 10pm.

And, there is nothing...I say N O T H I N G to rent in my daughter's school district (I've already moved her twice) and I am staying in this district til she graduates or if I am settled, for the duration of little kids' schooling.

Nope, don't have any interest in being Radiology Director of a 300+ bed hospital. Sorry.

Thanks for post.

We have a 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom house, about 1600 sq. ft.  and I have my girl come every other week and pay her 30.00, she's here for 2 hours  I've had her for about 8 years now.  She's like a daughter to me.  Hope this helps.

You need to document all of this and write her a registered letter recepit requested ahd outline all of this and inform her that you are going to send a copy to the Stare Board of Real Estate licensing and do a formal complaint unless either release you from your contract with no fee or to start doing her job. Whichever you prefer.    If she is with a large company, I would also cc a copy to the broker/owner of the company.  You do not need to take this nor pay for cancelling her contract if she is not doing your job and that should be stated somewhere in the contract.   Also the state will investigate this and it will be a mark on her name.  You can always call the state board and see if there are any complaints against your realtor.   But you don't have to take this kind of service.   But forewarn her of what you will be doing.   And like I said if she is working for a large company like Century 21 inform the broker -- call her office and ask who is the manger/broker and talk or just send them a copy of your letter.   They do not want any investigations believe me as it ties them up too much.

I'm just being nosy because I'd like examples.  I feel like I'm drowning in "stuff".  I've been decluttering and trying to get organized for years now, but it doesn't seem to be helping.  I got rid of all the stuff I was saving for "some day it might be worth something".  I feel like just going through the house and chucking everything because I'm tired of looking at the piles of crap everywhere.  It's not like it's a pigsty either, but there's just too much of it.  I've sold stuff on ebay and in yard sales, but it's all piling up again.  I hate it.  I'm not a packrat.  Anybody else feel like this?

And finances.  Do you have a checkbook or do you operate on a cash basis?  Do you track every single penny every month using a home accounting program?  I've been really anal about our finances for years now, too.  I'm just tired of the stress of it.  It seems like life would be so much easier if we just lived life instead of trying to remember where it all went.  Honestly, why do I need to keep track of it all?  It's not like I'm a wasteful spender.

Well I plan on staying in my house until they move me out in a pine box and so am not worried about the depreciation or write off.  Have enough insurance left to my heirs that will pay for any taxes that they might incur if I die before I have retired and lived  here for the time necessary not to report it.  But I think that every case is different and agree with the advice for the first year or so to consult a CPA --although they do  not know everything but you can get some good advice.   A lot always depends on your age and how long you plan to live there, etc.  

TV on for me. I can't do music though. Its usually the food channel or the news channel.  Volume  is where I can hear it but low.
