I had so much trouble with commas when I was in school. I worked so hard to get them just right and you know what? Now that I'm working for a major hospital - they don't care about commas at all!! As a matter of fact, they would prefer that I leave them out unless absolutely necessary! So now it's like I have to retrain my brain all over again!

Two commas
Commas
But if in doubt, don't put one. It is better to put less commas than to put too many.
That what I was told.
FYI - ALL commas and periods go INSIDE quotation marks!
