it's TASTE. You have lost sight of the original concept of the posts.

i'm not doing an ethical evaluation on why i am drawn to toby keith or if he may be gay or rock hudson's qualities if he was gay or jude law. it is just the type of guy women are drawn to and why. shallow has nothing to do with the discussion. but you aren't paying attention are you?

I was hit by all 3 that summer, I lost power, I lost work, I lost savings...but..sm
NEVER did my employer in any way imply or threaten or dare even mention that my job was in jeopardy because I could not work immediately following a trifecta of natural disasters! My jaw agape is not at your concern about working, but at your concern that you would lose your job because of it. Companies have to have a heart in some situations. You're one MT, your company won't go under without you working for a week or 2 or 3.
I was going to say unless you were the original 3 brave souls named on the original suit.
I still had heard lately that no one else, not one person, had been allowed to join in, so you must be in a separate class??
sounds to be like she has no concept of time.

I recently lost 20 pounds. That means I lost 80 sticks of butter.
    
No end in sight for outsourcing
I believe some of the accounts will come back state side, but the outsource offshoring will continue - no end in sight. To look at the bigger picture, our healthcare system is in a mess with no solutions actively being worked on. As monies become tighter in the future and if nothing is being done about fixing our healthcare mess, the motivation is strong for financial officers to send more work offshore because of the cheap labor. Some hospitals now accept offshoring as a solution and when the hospitals themselves directly use this service, well, not much hope to keep the work state side. I believe there are some facilities that will not accept inferior work from any one, state side or otherwise, but I am also seeing that some hospitals WILL accept inferior work motivated by the cheap price. This is happening across all sectors of business in this country. More than 50% of IT jobs are now in India and China with no end in sight. More and more business are trying to find ways to dump their benefits - #1 is health insurance and this affects all of us as more and more people are going without health insurance.
Keep the bills out of sight--sm
For me they are the biggest distraction. I can ignore the phone, tune out the noise but those stinking bills in my line of sight are the worst. I either have to go online and pay them or call so and so and tell them why I am late. I don't pull them out until after I am done or before I start. Otherwise, they stay in the drawer. Now, I keep the paid receipts on top of the desk to remind me why I work like a mule!
Love at first sight?
Hey - I know this is the wrong board for this but if anyone would switch over to emotion/depression and/or chit chat I'd like your opinion. Thanks
I love the concept of a homeowners situation.
My mom's development has one and no one is allowed to hang clothes outside (too trailer-esque), they have to check with the association to see if the color of the drapes in their front windows are okay, and so on.
On the other hand, our development does not have an association and our next-door neighbor just put up the ugliest rust-colored old fogey looking awning over her front door, the guy down the street has a fence that looks like a medieval fortress, and so on.
If you want to keep an attractive neighborhood that way, a homeowners association is a must. Otherwise you never know if your neighbors will have taste buds up their butts and create an eyesore that the rest of the neighbors just have to deal with.
Remembering the concept that funerals are for the living, I would
take my daughter. You say, "I feel uncomfortable going to a funeral where I have only met the mother of this child once (at a birthday party)" but you aren't going for the mother. You are going for your daughter. I think this would be a wonderful opportunity for you to teach your daughter how to care for others at a time of loss. It is best to start with funerals of people that aren't that close to you, in order to introduce some of these ideas without personal grief getting too much in the way. Then when Grandma, Grandpa (or closer) go, it's not all completely new to the child.
Not a new concept, Hope. Works this way in all industries.
If you can't give yourself a break, at least give us one.
I personally enjoy VR work and make better money, even with a reduced rate. It's faster. Easier.
OMG. I'm never letting my legs out of my sight again. LOL.

Ya'll want to see a sight? Get a look at this poor
guy! OMG!
Been at this 8yrs as an IC - no raise in sight, ever

I'm no sheep, heck, I'm not even religious. But I have grasped the concept of what a lie is.

Love the show and the concept!! Wish that were me with that kinda problems...

I doubt your brother has won more than he's lost. To win that much he's probably lost 3 times
So he probably has more bills than money. Otherwise the casinos would go broke.
I don't think I am in a light of sight for cell towers either. sm
They pick up signals within distances like cell phones do. I don't think a direct line of site is needed period like it is with satellite. With satellite, you have the big dish that is placed on your house and it beams the satellites in space to get your signals. With wireless it gets signals from the towers. You have nothing but you wireless network card or USB plug that picks up the signal from the tower. No big, ugly dish around on my home.
If you can only occasionally get a cell signal, it might not be the best option for you. Do you know anyone around that has wireless? My brother had it and came to my home with his laptop to show me how it worked and that is when I choose to get it. I like that I can now also travel and pick up signals rather than be limited to one location with the satellite on my home also. No need to worry if a hotel has wireless or not as I have it. I would figure out who the best cell phone company provider is in your area and contact them. Tell them specifically your location, your situation with iffy cell signals and see what they suggest. Like I said mine had the 30-day money back guarantee so I knew I could go that route if I saw it wasn't getting good signals for me. All the major cell companies have wireless now, but your best bet is who has the most towers in your area. I am thinking there is a website that shows cell towers and locations, maybe research it? Cannot recall right now, but I have seen it before. Just contact the company in your area and tell them to explain their wireless INTERNET plans to you.
Agree to the concept but what I would offer is to show the doc the advantages of going digital and
most of them want to buy new toys anyway. As an MTSO, I stay up on the latest technology that will help all of us do our jobs better. For example, what if he has a stat report? That can be dictated and posted to the FTP site, done and back to the office in 15 minutes. Can't do that with tapes. Plus with digital files, you can copy them as you transfer, so there's a file in the software program, one on the ftp site and one at your office, just in case somebody gets erase happy. I feel the quality is better. Once in a while I get somebody who has a phobia about the big bad Internet but I would at least sit down with them and explain some things. Most fear comes from ignorance anyway.
Also, what does it taste like?
Is there something comparable to the taste? I also wondered about what it is. I thought it was a super dose of caffeine.
Hell, I didn't let my kids out of my sight in the 1980s!
Freaks and loonies didn't just crawl out of the woodwork recently.
Love at first sight on the Long Island RailRoad
On the Long Island Railroad, traveling to Greenwich Village for the day and he traveling to a concert in Queens, NY. The instant I looked at his face and he talked to me and sat across from me on the train, I knew we would make history together, I knew something was gonna happen between us. He got off the train, I continued on to Greenwich Village, NYC..didnt get his number, nor he mine. Four months later I was driving into my apartment parking lot and he was driving behind me, said he recognized me from my sunglasses as I looked in the rear view mirror. He asked for my phone number and the rest is history..It was truly love at first sight..
good taste, nan!

I do think it is in bad taste to ask for money, but
if you say to make donations to a favorite charity seems okay. I saw an article some place recently that said about what I have said here.
This is a very basic computer skill/concept. You copy files to another drive using Explorer.
There are very detailed instructions in the Help files that accompany Windows. You can read those for more information.
Basically, you open Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer). Locate the files you want to copy, highlight and right mouse click. Choose Copy. Now, find the location where you want to copy these files (usually another drive like D: or H:, whereever the flash/jump/thumb drive is located) and paste the files there.
It's called DLS for direct-line-of-sight...mountains could be a problem...sm
I have wireless but hold a direct line of sight to tower only 1 mile away. Mountains could block signal. The only way you could know would be to take the laptop there and see if the signal holds. Are there any neighbors there that might be using it too? That's your best "test." Ignore poster below who talks about router. The initial signal is sent from the tower TO your router, router takes care of wireless internet INSIDE house, not outside. If you do go wireless router inside house, buy one with a speed booster. I have connects of 100.0 mbps routinely.
You have excellent taste in men. My first choice also.
He has it all. Class, dignity, intelligence and charm and oh so cute/handsome/sexy.
You have great taste, my friend!
YEP, and some people have good taste and....sm
and some others have NO taste/class....*lol*
I don't drink at all ever - hate the taste...nm
.
Either way, the comment was in very poor taste.

Another wise woman with good taste! SM
I think BBT is the bee's knees. You have very good taste.
I liked his music but he's way too liberal loony agenda for my taste

Anyone have a home remedy for loss of taste/smell?
This sinus cold has been dragging on for nearly 2 weeks now..going on day 5 of absolutely no sense of taste or smell....soooooooo tired of this
I haven't had taste or smell for over 10 years due to chemotherapy.
Sometimes that's a GOOD thing. Seriously.
home remedy for loss of taste/smell
How about zinc? I was told years ago that this helps with loss of taste and smell.
Your taste runs to slender effeminate boys. That's the way it is and how Jude Law
makes a "living" as well as Justin Timberlake. There are those who aren't attracted to manly men and enjoy seeing a pretty boy. BTW, Toby Keith has some excellent tight jeans and long legs and I don't see doughboy but it is relative if you prefer the looks of Jude Law/Justin Timberlake/Leonardo DeCaprio. And he appeared w/o his hat on many times. Not bald by any stretch like Garth Brooks. But having said that, Garth Brooks, dough-boy and balding was hot in his day.
Just do a search and read the posts. There are plenty of posts about OSI on this board. nm.
nm.
Um have you read any of your posts and the other posts? I think everyone DOES believe me..you
Oh, how original! nm
NOT!
Maybe not original but ...................

that was the point of the original
poster on this "thread", everyone does have a right to their own opinion....but they do NOT have the right to personally attack, insult or intimidate other posters. Thank you. Please re-read the original post.
As for the original question...
How do they get hired? Well they have someone help them with the test, easy as that. I have also had work from one MT come across my desk and you can tell that more than ONE MT did the work. Sadly, on some of them, whomever is helping is no better.
All the original stuff. nm

thats you. the original poster is not you.
Yes I am. That's what the original topic was, after all.
agree with you on the Nagin/Blanco thing. Did you want to change the subject?
I don't have tunnel vision.
Um, did you see the original post..
...."the reason I'm buying the house tomorrow.." I bought a house. I'm leaving.
I believe my original post came
before the news of so many lives lost. Excuse me and I appologize again for not making my OP politically, humanly, sympathetically, empathetically, correct. Just forget I even posted it.

My heart goes out to you. The sexual harrassment i'm going through is not comparable, I couldn't imagine dealing with this if I were a child.. In a way, they are taking something from us, no matter what age, when they cross that border. I have told someone, so its out. But my mother is another story. She has been abused emotionally and physically by men. Like I said above, she is in a horrible state of mind, depends soley on this man. Thats why removing myself until I figure things out would be best. I do notice on his side of the family, he is not near his grandchildren, or great grandchildren, and over they years, they have expressed their hate for him. I just don't understand at his age how he could still be doing something like this and not learn from it, having lost his own family? He is a master at getting people to like him...my family would raise eyebrows at me if I brought this up. But like I said, I told someone, she understands, and it has leaked around. Actually talking to my mother, she would do something to hurt herself. She wouldnt be able to handle it.
Very original!! Can only imagine what it would be
hahaha
It is in the original post. :)
