Mothers day
It could be worse...my husband I I decided to divorce on Mother's Day...and I got nothing from any of my 4 kids.
BRAVO! The mothers never want to work SM
a holiday, they want every school break to be off with their children, they have to go on a field trip, they need to take Bratleigh to the doctor, on and on.
Taking a full-time job is great for them with full-time benefits until they are told they have to work some weekends or God forbid CHRISTMAS....what about the chilllllldddrennnnnn......
Message for those who aren't mothers...sm
I hope you made it through the day yesterday without it bothering you that you're not a mom. For many years I'd try to avoid going to the stores around Mother's Day and having clerks say "Happy Mother's Day" and avoid church because of the Mother's Day recognition because it emotionally stung that I wasn't married or a mom. My heart breaks for a good friend who had a miscarriage 2 years ago and is now infertile as she hates the "happy mother's day" wishes as it brings up the sad emotions. I can't even begin to imagine how painful that must be for her and others who have shared the same misfortunes.
I'm now 43 and am now a foster mom so while I don't have any biological children I do have a precious child living with me. I'm sure that her mom was sad yesterday that she chose drugs over raising her child and lost custody because of drugs, but I am grateful that I'm able to use my motherly ways with her.

I have 2 goldens, 1 Shelties, and 3 cats. Do they count? I love them and they love me! I buy them food and fix their meals. In the evening they get a pseudo raw diet and marrow bones. I take the dogs to obedience, agility, and handling classes. I bring them to the vet. I make sure they have plenty of tennies (tennis balls) and woobies (toy they can rip the stuffing out of) give them unwanted baths, cut toenails, scoop up the yard, play with them, give ear scrunches, belly rubs, give out meds to Taz Duh Golden (dumber than a box of rocks) who has severe heart disease (subaortic stenosis and cor pulmonale), and my heart is torn when any of them make their journey to the Bridge.
So, in a way, I am a mom. Only difference.....mine have 4 legs and not 2. 
work-at-home mothers
And admiration and respect to the MT at-home moms (dads too)who do this demanding job with kids at home! Hats off to you!
Happy Mothers Day from the staff at MTStars! May you have the best day!

What a very sweet surprise! Happy Mothers Day

Why only young mothers who want to earn extra?
Why this statement? What about us older ones? I just do not get that statement because I would think experience counts a lot in this job.
And I thank the mothers of boys who have raised them to respect women.

Mothers volunteer as "aides" at their children's schools
supposed to help, not hinder.
Most daddies don't die. It's the breeding with losers that makes single mothers...
and you need to replace your crystal ball, because it's cracked. I happen to be very happily married with NO kids and LOVE it. Now, some of you will start squawking that I'm bitter because I don't have kids, but I assure you I am grateful every day of my life that I don't have to deal with kids, especially when I read on these boards how unhappy so many mothers seem to be.
If I'm harsh, it's because I've gotten the short end of the stick SO MANY FREAKING TIMES in my working life because of single mothers who expect and get preferential treatment, while those of us w/o kids are expected to pick up the slack. And guess what? I'm SICK of it.
Mothers covering for childless women? Don't make me laugh!! nm

Sometimes they just kill me!
Chief Complaint: Back pain.
Review of Systems: No back pain.
Social History: He smokes and does cocaine. No alcohol. No drug use.
Hmmmmm???
Anyone know how to kill
these little boogers? I have some at my house, my feline might have had 1 for lunch and they are poisonous to kitties- any ideas? Looked on the internet but could not find anything definite. Thanks!
you people kill me! (sm)
give the woman a break, already! HER CHILD IS MISSING IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY! I'm sure she's not in her usual state of mind. Instead of running her in the ground, all this energy should be spent on positive thoughts and prayers for the family and for Natalee. They need support, not condemnation. Prayer is a mighty thing, give it a try!
That which does not kill you, will only make you

Would it kill a doctor to....
Actually just spell out a name of a random physician that they include in their report? I mean, for the company I work for, we have to search physician registries and such to FIND physician names. Now, if the hospital is in Alabama and the doctor just throws it out there and says......"She once saw Dr. XXXXX in Toledo, Ohio", I mean come on now, PUH-LEASE just spell Dr. XXXXX's name for me! It will take you TWO SECONDS to do so and it takes me way too many minutes to search around and try to find this dude's name!
Not trying to be Miss Complainey Pants today, LOL, but sometimes you just gotta vent!
not kill any living thing?
oH, what about the plants? are they not living? some worship them too...and NO. I will not leave my God out of anything. My God is in me and I in Him. I will not try to separate one from the other. Sorry if my faith bothers you.
LOL! And stress will kill you or make you
now have some incurable, difficult to treat, chronic, crippling, painful disease brought on by stress!
Please take her to a "No-Kill" Shelter!
Otherwise, the animals are usually put down after only a week and 1 week really isn't long enough to get the dog adopted. So Please only bring the dog to a "no-kill" shelter! 
Hope they don't kill off Tony!!!

DITTO-don't kill off Tony - say do you think....sm
do you think if we ALL wrote to HBO that they'd keep the Sopranos on for a couple of more years??????? It wouldn't hurt to write to them - I mean how easy can it be online? *laughs*
Off to write to HBO....*S*
Since he dialed 9-1-1 he will....can't kill him in the first episode! -nm

If I gave that recipe out, he'd kill me....but....
no body lives forever, right? ;) My son makes three 8-inch round cake layers, cuts off the tops to make them all flat then cuts each layer in half (using a piano wire--very culinary :). The rasp. filling from scratch takes forever, but a quick alternative is to heat rasp. jelly on low and add regular nonflavored brandy. Heat stirring constantly until it thickens a little and is spreadable. This should not take very long at all (heating too high for too long will turn it into hard candy when it cools). Spread between the cake layers. The genache is just white chocolate, butter and heavy cream. My son goes by what the stuff looks like with regards to how much of each he needs, but I'll bet you can find a recipe on epicurious. com or the like. I know this is not exact, but hope it helps a little.
Okay then, should you kill every animal that scares you be it a dog or - sm
or a cat....does not make sense. They are animals, they just want to be left alone. Some people scare me sometimes, should I go out and shoot them? People need to be a bit more tolerant. I am not a huge fan of snakes either but I will never understand the killing of any animal unless it is for food or if the animal attacks.
so in other words, kill everything that is causing--sm
an epidemic. What about HIV and other diseases? Kill them too?
Yes - cold does kill fleas
it's called WINTER not air conditioning........ROFLMAO! Are you for real?
Didn't that unmatched SS kill ya? nm

Go to Mickey D's where you belong before you kill someone. nm

Hey, I've done that before and they didn't kill me.
I told my boss right away what I did and apologized. I still have my job.
Yes, as a matter of fact, it WOULD kill them.
And the planet might fall out of orbit too.
I once had to tell a doctor that I'd only been to Ireland once, and thus didn't know any of the same people over there that he did, so when he was writing letters to them and mentioning other people's names (all with the accent of course) I had NO clue who he was talking about.... Somehow, that was an odd concept to him. Doesn't everybody know all the same people in Ireland??
some jerk wanted to kill my pigeons
I have lots of doves, regular birds (sparrows, finches, you name it) and pigeons frequent my property cause I put bird seed down. I had some guy come by last winter and ask if he could pay me to catch the pigeons so they could kill them and eat them..I said, honey, I love animals and there is no way Im gonna let you come here and kill my pigeons..you are talking to the wrong person, LOL..
Try to get you old job back, I'd kill for $500 a week after taxes- nm

I'd kill for what you have--- be thankful -- sounds very good to me! - nm

no, kill animals that are carrying the epidemic
to save the humans. Sorry if you don't agree with that.

Need to vent... (If you have time to kill, check it out!)
I am so frustrated right now I could just scream! If nobody even makes it to the end of this I will understand, but I'm just livid.
First of all, I was due my paycheck on the 15th. I work for a small MTSO, and our checks are frequently late at the end of the month. (The checks due the last day of the month usually get paid sometime during the first week. I'm used to that now.) But the paycheck on the 15th is consistently on time. Our mortgage is due on the 1st with a grace until the 15th. With the terrible economy and struggling like we tend to do, we usually pay on the 15th. We save half our checks from the 1st week of the month then pay the mortgage when we both get paid on the 15th so that we don't have to take the huge mortgage hit out of one paycheck but rather spread it out over two. (Hope that makes sense.) Well, I was told on Monday that we would PROBABLY be paid by FRIDAY, but that it's not for sure. Since I won't have my check, and we will be paying after the 15th, we will get a $75 late fee on our mortgage. Is it too much to expect to be paid ON TIME?
It gets better. The very next day after this news, my MTSO emailed me saying that a client was missing 5 patient reports. She kind of went "high and right" on me saying that she didn't have them, the client didn't have them, I didn't send them, where are they, etc. I was calm, knowing that I didn't make that mistake. I went back and found the files. I sent the files. I then went back and searched my email until I found the email that contained the missing files. I forwarded the email in its entirety, complete with headers showing the time and date it was sent, and put in the email what basically amounted to, "The original email contained 20 files, 7 of which were for other clients and 13 of which were from XYZ Ortho. Since the other clients never complained of missing files, and since XYZ Ortho isn't complaining about the other 8 files, I am confident that you sent the files on to XYZ Ortho and they just lost them." (Which this client has done over the last four years, losing files that have been sent and then blaming us.) I finished with, "I have forwarded the original email so that you can use this to show the client that the problem is not with their Transcriptionist - don't let them blame us!"
I graciously did not point out what I really wanted to point out, which was that I sent my boss the files like I do every morning. If the client lost their files, there is still no reason why my boss shouldn't have been able to pull them up from her computer!
The next day, however, I get a pissy email saying "I never got your original email. I searched my computer and I searched my computer and the files are not there. You will have to get a more reliable ISP, because I'm not getting your email.... " She went on to blame me for the problem in SPITE of the fact that I already pointed out that the problem could not possibly have been with me.
Now I'm really cheesed, because either she's just plain dense or she thinks I'm just plain dense. I wrote back reiterating that I just forwarded her the original email. She's only missing FIVE files. The original email contained TWENTY files for DIFFERENT clients (including one that is VERY picky about getting their files back in less than 24 hours -- if they hadn't gotten their files I would have heard about it weeks ago! ). I told her that why she can't find the five missing files on her computer or in her email is obviously a problem on HER end, but considering that my other clients aren't missing anything and the problem client is only missing a few of the files, the problem clearly is not with me. I sent the files. The files were recieved. What happened next, either with her or with the client, is not something I can control.
The next day I get an email that said, "Found the problem. Thanks."
WHAT? She accuses me of losing files, not sending files, put it on me and then when it's pointed out that she's the one who did something wrong there's no "Sorry I blamed you, it was my fault." I'm telling you, I am HOT. 
This on top of the fact that I'm not getting paid is the reason why I am currently interviewing for a work-primarily-from-home analyst position with a local company. I really expect professionalism, and this isn't it!
If you've made it this far, you deserve a hug.  Thanks for listening!
If you go to HBO they have chat area and someone predicted they will kill the characters off (sm)
one by one, and a few other predictions. I'm really going to miss this show. I guess the last one in August 21st. I will say that since all the TV companies seem to be ending the shows I watched the most, it'll make it easier for me to give up TV this fall, dang it.
Well, I gotta' tell you, if a living snake comes my way, I'm gonna kill him. nm

U love beta fish? Aren't those the ones that kill
I remember my exhusband always had Japanese beta fish when we were married. As I recall, if my memory serves me well, these specific male fish impregnate the female fish and then when she has the babies, the beta (male) squeezes all life out of the mom and kills her after she has the babies. Just the idea of this made me hate this type of fish 4ever.
Just one person's opinion though! No flaming please! *LOL*
It's CHINA for Pete's sake, where they still kill girl babies. Do you think
they have some sort of dog euthanasia patrol of paid government employees? Puhleeeze yourself.
For what reason would someone take a chance of breaking into someone's house to kill their 6-year
It was an inside job - Patsy did it.
Would it kill you people to give constructive advice instead of insults and insensitivity?!?
I understand your frustration. I think you just need to sit down and have a talk with your employer. Find out exactly what they want your status to be. As an employee, yes they do have the right to dictate your hours, where you work, etc., but they do not have the right to jerk you around. If they want you to work at home, then they need to provide for that, not you! Anyone who says otherwise is wrong! In any industry, if a company wants you to commute, they pay for gas/mileage. If they want you to have a cell phone/pager, they either pay for it, or they provide an allowance for it. If they want you to work at home, they provide equipment. It sounds to me like they want way too much and are giving very little. Just because a person/company is the employer, it does not give them the right to treat people like dirt, sending them on wild goose chases, interfering with their life, schedule, expenses, etc. I am sorry you have received such critical and insensitive comments. I hope this works out for you. Blessings!
