pet hair/clawing solutions

In Reply to: Question, please! Cats: Shedding and clawing furniture! - Goldbird
I'll probably get reamed for this, but spray them with a water bottle. It usually doesnt take long for them to catch on, and after a couple days, all you need to do is show them the bottle and they will go running. I hated that idea for the longest time, watched a friend of mine do it, and I just let them claw everything to shreds, but I bought new furniture, and decided to put a stop to it. Just make sure you have something that they can claw, like those card board claw boxes for cats they sell at the pet store. For the fur I use a lint brush, or a fabric softener sheet sometimes works.

Clawing
They also make little plastic caps that will fit over their claws. I've seen them in Dr.'s Foster and Smith catalog. Don't know how well they work, but you could check them out if the water doesn't work. I tended to just yell really load at them and they got the hint. Now if I could just get my kid to mind as well as the cats......
Question, please! Cats: Shedding and clawing furniture!
How do I get control of this white cat fur on my forest green furniture and stop him from clawing it up?
Laser Hair Removal (for dark hair)
I've tried Epilators (basically an electronic tweezer) and wax, but nothing beats Laser HR. It's a bit pricy and takes a few treatments to be 100% effective, but definitely works.
MT Solutions
Can anyone tell me anything about a company called MT Solutions.
Thanks.
Thank you very much for some solutions.
There are some good ideas here. I just may try all of them and see which one "fits" me better. I have the feeling the CapsLock key taping will be the best of 'em all, but I really hope to remember the highlight, Shift F3. That will be my first to try.
Thank you again. You guys are great.
Transcription Solutions
Does anyone work for this company, or know anything about them, good or bad? Thanks
Transcription Solutions
I am not sure which it is. Do you know anything on either company?

The harder you work, the more you get paid. Make sense?
Your question should be directed to the recruiter though I find it difficult to understand, if you have been offered a position then certainly you have seen the paperwork, which explains it all.
For pete's (and everyone else's) sake, look it up.
This is a do it yourself-er. :)
Transcription Solutions
I heard from this company and I am wondering how the pay works out since they pay based on so many words typed per day. Any TS-ers out there who can explain how this works? I counted one of my daily files the way I get paid now and how they pay and it came to considerably less, so I am curious as to how it actually works.
Transcription Solutions has an ad on the
job board, I don't have any personal experience but have heard they are a really good company
Precyse Solutions
I am about to accept a position with Precyse Solutions. I'm leaving the company I was with because they run out of work too frequently. I had no work at all last week and I need to pay bills. Can anyone tell me if Precyse is as great as it sounds? Thanks, JW ');>![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/sowhat.gif")

Isn't there something someone can do about FALSE ADVERTISING?
Can anyone tell me about OSI (Outsourcing Solutions Inc)
Just wondering - they sound so professional - good benefits, etc. - but I have not seen anything here. Any opinions, or is anyone working for them?
I used to QA at Precyse Solutions
and can tell you that the offshore work went through several layers of their own QA and still would have major errors when I got it. I can only imagine how horrible the reports are before their QA edits them.
I got sick of doing QA on the offshore reports and left.
Laser hair removal. Has anyone tried laser hair removal on their face and if so, did it work?

Anyone out there work for Millenium Business Solutions? Any information on this company would be great.
Check out Network Solutions.
They will register your domain name for you as well as host your site. They're also readily available if you have any questions. I went with them on the recommendation of a friend who is a website designer and have been very happy with my decision. It was pretty easy to design my website on their site as well. Their website address is below. Feel free to email me if you have further questions. momtypes @ comcast.net

They are very helpful and usually fairly quickly as well with their product. I love IT and have always found Textware Solutions to be extremely helpful with any problems I have encountered along the way.
Any Info on Precyse Solutions?
Just curious if anyone knows what may be happening at Precyse Solutions. I have heard they are cutting back on their benefits, as in not matching 401K plan any longer. Is it possible they are being approached by a buyer and cutting back to beef up their profit margin? I was looking into working for them, but if there is instability there, I'd rather weigh my options more carefully.
The solutions you offer are correct. NM

american transcription solutions in Clearwater FL
Does anyone know anything about American Transcription Solutions in Clearwater FL? Is this a good place to work for???
Superior Global Solutions and Futurenet...sm
I heard Superior Global Solutions does not get your pay to you. Futurenet, I have read here does not have any benefits and runs out of work. Also here are a few other bad ones I have seen and read on here: SoftScript, Spheris, and good/bad about Transcend.
The good ones in which I have read have been all of the MDIs. Have not had any experience with them though..Good luck!

Excruciating heel pain from foot pedal. Has anyone had this problem? Any solutions? (sm)
My heels hurt so bad after several hours of using my foot pedal that I can hardly work. It is due to resting my heel on the floor and tapping the foot pedal all day long. After a weekend of rest the pain will subside, but flares back up during the week. Any suggestions as what I can do?
Hair
Just be careful about mentioning Wal Mart. It has kind of been a bad word lately on the boards. I do not shop there a lot because my husband is a firefighter in the union but I do not blame people for shopping there because we do have to eat.
Cause I like my hair!
Worked in advertising for over 8 years as a commercial producer, and it (my hair) had started falling out!! Got burned out fast! Also, this field was more conducive to raising children - no travel and I was home for them!
Hair......
Thanks everyone for all your replies! So much good advice - I'll sleep on it and think it all over.
hair
I got a wild hair last week and went and had my hair cut really super shirt in a chic style, so hair blowing in my face won't be a problem. I am so psyched and ready to go buy the convertible. Hopefully by Monday, I'll have it! :)
hair cut
I paid 24.99 the other day + a $5 tip at Fantastic Sams - shampoo/haircut/style. That was last week. The cut was terrible, so I asked for a redo by another stylist - she did a great job - so I gave her a $5 tip - so in all - that would be $34.99. I always go to the beauty college to have my hair highlighted - $30 bucks - $13 for a machine facial and $15 for a back treatment - both better than a massage - being cocooned up in those warm blankets. Great.
bad hair
You are hysterical, Belle! Thank heavens I have short hair or I'd never answer the door!
LOL!!! Me too, except for the hair.
but all these things are kept hidden when working. You'll only see them when I'm not working.
I'm sorry too, hair-ball
.
no hair left
i hate to tell you but it doesn't get any better. been with them for over 3 years -- i still have my hair, but have lost my sanity!!
dumb as a bag of hair (No, I don't get it either!)

Hair color
I use Balsam (its a greenish box), the cheapest I've found, about 2.97 at WalMart. I use it every 3-4 weeks, and it covers as well (sometimes better) than the salon colors do. I'm a big believer in pampering myself, and TRY to do it often (lately, I've been failing miserably LOL).
The first time or two you might have to just see if it works, and it might take a couple of times (no matter which color or which brand) to completely cover. If you want a 'frosted' look, get a frosting cap and add color to the pulled through hair, makes a great effect. If you don't like it, just color over it :)
I always do OTC hair color.
Colorsilk works really well for me, I like all the Loreal products best. Someone else mentioned Balsom or something (greenish box), this made my hair feel like straw. That shows you that different things work for different people. If you decide to try it yourself, do the pre-testing to make sure it will work for you. That way you don't end up with a whole ruined head of hair. Just clip a small lock from somewhere where it won't be noticed and test first to make sure. Best of luck.
Hair products...
I remember hearing a rumor that Prell or Pert would turn your hair green. I'm a brunette, never happened. Also, what ever happened to "creme/cream rinse"? That's what it was called in the 80's. In my Aqua Net days, I could make my bangs stand up about 2 inches, my best girlfriend's bangs were 4 inches high! Wow! I love this. Let's keep going.
Do whatever you want, - maybe a flower in your hair? but you don't have to have anything

i hate my hair !!!
I have made notes on all these products - I'll keep trying them until something works ! Thanks again.
No surgery...it's the hair
Believe me...my hard drive is loaded with pictures of Clay. I've seen him in concert multiple times...many times right up there in the first couple of rows. I've got every performance, every appearance downloaded on my computer. I've looked at the face a thousand times or more. Plus, believe me, he'd have a hard time hiding plastic surgery from the Claymates. It's the same face...the same nose..the same ears...the same eyes. It's the longer darker hair, down over his forehead like we've never seen it, that makes him look different....and that's had me not working and needing a cold shower all day. I loved him before (can you tell  )....but man, he's got me going even worse with this new look.
hair cut prices
Just curious, how much do you pay for a hair cut and how long does it take? My stylist just raised her prices quite a bit and without notice. I'm sure it varies quite a bit. I live in the Midwest (small town) and now pay 12 bucks. What do you pay?
hair cut prices
I live in the Southeast as well and would love to find someone for $12! My stylist is $45 for wash, HC, blowdry. It takes 45 minutes to an hour.
