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!

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!
