Some people need better things to worry about.

My cat veterinarian authorized us to use cat Frontline on our 5-pound tiny toy poodle
She said it goes by size and he's the size of a small cat.
All groomers I have used, do it. The veterinarian I used to work for told people the groomer

Because they weren't doing much
They were working too hard to take the time to talk. It was the American workers that made me sick. I was sort of embarrassed by the fact that they couldn't do the job without complaining about having to go to the next one. They even brought their kids with them to work who played with my kids' stuff without even asking first. They were ignorant and not worth the money they were paid. It is a shame that I had to feel that way, but it is so true.
I tried to work it out, they weren't willing. nm
they weren't asking for help, just complaining

You weren't trained
You weren't trained, which is why you couldn't earn a living doing MT. A lot of people make that mistake, think they just sit down at a computer and type what they hear, then they wonder why they can't make any money. I'm sure if you had gone to school to learn MT, you would have been great at it. After all, you didn't teach yourself to become an RN, right?
Amen to that - I'm fed up with it. We weren't
even asked if we would CONSIDER going to editing, we are just switched over. I wasn't hired to edit and was hired to transcribe at a mutually agreed-upon line rate. I can type faster than I edit - I am going to lose a lot of $ at this editing stuff if I don't find something else. Not happy at all with it.
Weren't you ever taught that if you
don't have anything nice to say to someone, don't say anything at all? You must like being rude and hateful, and I don't mean just YOU personally, I mean everyone who has to criticise and be rude.
LOL. It took a moment to realize you weren't

And how do you know they weren't cussing up a blue

Then you weren't making any profits -- sm
If taxes were eating up your "profit" you weren't making any as even as an employee you pay taxes and so your takehome pay is less. All you pay is the extra 7.5% of SSN when you are an IC or in business for self. There are so many write offs that I have or anyone can have that I actually have more take home pay than if I were an employee. So again, you had no profits as if you had been an employee you would have been 30% down in take home pay anyway. With all my write offs -- which I would still have an an employee but could not deduct, I am in a much higher tax bracket than I am now. So even with the extra 7.5% for SSN, it is well worth it to be and no I do not cheat just take all available write-offs that I am allowed.
If it weren't for us Americans, he wouldn't be the star
mine did this and my headphones weren't plugged in all the way nm
if i were being promised things that weren't being followed through, i'd hit the road. sm
i agree on the decreasing the bonus but maybe they didn't have as productive of a year this year or didn't clear as much in their pocketbooks as they would like, lol. i technically think all companies should give something; after all, a gift is a tax write off anyway. better to give to those busting our tails for them rather than uncle sam. i haven't gotten anything but cards in the last 3 years so i am used to it by now and don't expect it but i would definitely be grateful even for a meal gift card or anything for that matter.
Me, too, but we weren't allowed to use White-Out. We had to erase sm
all our carbons, sometimes I had 6, as we weren't allowed to use a copier. I wish we had a board of our own, don't you? Things are different with us.
If it weren't for needing a land line for DSL
My cell phone is my primary phone and I have more minutes and free long distance than I can use per month. I got basic phone services and locked it from any LD calls to save money and my land line still costs $30 a month. I feel I'm wasting that money but there isn't anything I can do. I won't drop my cell phone because I have my kids on as extra lines and they wouldn't have a phone otherwise.
weren't these shoes originally called...sm
to me, crocs would be made out of crocodiles (I do live in Florida *LOL*).....what you all describe sounds like the *jellies* my daughter wore when she was 10 or 12. 
Patti, weren't you one of the MTSOs complaining
a couple of weeks back that there's really no big money in this biz anymore and it wasn't worth the time/effort put in when all is said and done? Or maybe you're having a good week this week? : )
Weren't the Indians given a reduced rate to get CMT?

It means they probably weren't worth your time
and that unless they were not being straight with you (perhaps you did not actually pass their test for example) that they are disorganized and careless when it comes to recruitment.
Look elsewhere - APPLY MULTIPLE PLACES because this IS unfortunately not a unique situation. I have 20 years in the business and I have often had four resumes out at once because I KNOW some of the jobs advertised are not real jobs and I will never hear back. Others will SAY you have a job and then drop the ball to get you started.
The ones who seriously want to hire you *now* will make that very clear... Basically whoever gives you work first (that meets *your* requirements of course) is the company you go with.
Make a note of those companies who don't act professionally - and consider yourself forewarned about what they might be like to work for in the future.
SOME have legitimate communication oversights - but there are a TON who are poorly managed. It shouldn't be rocket science to figure out that ignoring a candidate (dropping the ball) etc., very loikely elimiates a potential person for future needs.
They weren't *fudging*. They didn't ADD hours -
The employee LOSES, and the company WINS.
Either the employee should get a OT differential for the extra hrs. worked, or else the *minimum* daily line count is TOO HIGH.

You probably would have had more people in chat if it weren't New Year's Day.

If it weren't a psych note I might wonder why it was relevant
but in a psych note I could easily see why mention of sexual orientation might be appropriate. I otherwise might wonder why doc felt need to include it in a regular medical note, where it's not normally mentioned if a person is straight.
I'm sure you're fine. If you weren't worried/
that would be different. But you obviously do care. I'm sure you are doing just fine. Ask your MTSO; I'm sure she will appreciate that you are conscientious enough to ask. 
Maybe the kids just weren't good in math period. No
matter where they go to school there are going to be kids that just struggle in a subject. Not having family support could be a major issue too. I never understood not having family support and why it mattered to a parent whether they had it or not because they are the parent. It would be nice if the family was supportive though. I have known people whose parents were so against it, but later saw that they were missing so much and bought into it and actually enjoyed helping them learn and explore. It doesn't take an education to be able to educate your child, it just takes love, time, and patience. Not all parents can provide that, but most can and do. I have 1 year of college and my just turned 11-YO is so far ahead that we went to a local college bookstore today to get him books because he has pretty much mastered everything else. I spend my free time reading his books trying to stay one step ahead of him and in the process getting a better education than I ever got when I was in school and I went to pubic and private schools and was also in advanced classes.
Homeschooling is not for everyone, but it is an option and those who choose to do it should be allowed to do it without being degraded for it. There are a tremendous amount of resources available to homeschoolers, the bigger the city the more options. Lack of socialization is one of the first issues that a non-homeschooler brings up. Our children still play with neighborhood children, participate in community sporting activities, scouts, 4-H, etc. so there are plenty of times for socialization. My youngest son has never met a stranger and everyone wants to be around him from ages 1 to 100. My oldest isn't as social and most of his friends are public school kids, but when he was in public school he didn't have but 1 friend, mainly because he was so advanced and the things he would talk about where things way over the other kid's heads and they thought he was lying.
Okay, I'll get off my soapbox now.
She needed thicker skin. You weren't rude at all. nm

I'd stay if they weren't deleting posts worse than the other ever did
I thought they deleted without cause before.. this is crazy.
Is there engineer week? Astronaut week? Veterinarian week?

Gross lines and 12 hour days!!! I stand corrected, you weren't stretching the truth, you were...
misleading everyone. The majority of MTSOs pay by a 65 character lines. Paying for spaces or not paying for spaces is usually the only variant between companies. You come on here and say that you tyhpe 3000 a line a day and leave it at that. Don't say how many hours your work, how long your lines are, etc. That is misleading!
I probably am typing 3000 gross lines a day in my eight hour day if I were coutning gross lines. For fun, I think on my next work day, I'm going to jot down my gross line count in each document and add it up at the end of the day and compare it to my actual line count. I'll let everyone know what the difference is.
Geez! Really burns me up when people get on here at start spouting out nonsense as if it were fact and we should all be in awe of their skills and expertise! For future reference, the truth lies in the details. You can't just say you do 3000 lines a day and leave it at that. Notice when I posted below how many lines a day I do, I added that I work a strictly 8 hour day and that my lines are 65 characters with spaces.
Give accurate and detailed information people, PLEASE!
Hubba hubba's right! Lucky Lady, and you weren't kidding either. ... sm
... he DOES have eyes that seem to penetrate right through you, for lack of a better description. (CHOKE!)
