Military [2008-08-05]
Well, I was in the military, and that is one of the big reasons I chose to get out! I got out in 94, so I'm not exactly sure what has changed, but here goes... First, my mouth dropped open when I read your post! I have a 14 and 7 year old and can't imagine leaving them, sick or not! But a 3-month-old baby! When I was in, it used to be if you got pregnant, you had the choice of being discharged. Last I knew, you could request a hardship discharge, based on the circumstances of the baby being in the hospital, preemie, etc. But here's the catcher to all this...it IS the military! If they don't want to let you out, they don't have to! They can do anything they feel like! That's what is BS! Sorry, this mom should NOT be going anywhere, let alone Iraq, with her baby in this state! Wow! Okay now you got me going!

military appreciation [2008-05-07]
Can he send a letter to a deployed soldier and write about doing that for school? When my husband was in Iraq, he loved getting mail from kids. Also, he could look up different occupations they do, such as Seabees help rebuild war torn countries. They also built a bridge in Maine to help the sea life. Let me know, I can email articles.

military appreciation?? [2008-05-06]
I the subject is military appreciation. I can't think of anything they do for us other than fight for our country/rights and help out in times of need (such as in Katrina) anybody have any ideas?

yes her husband is in the military. [2008-04-24]

LOL - I think we must've had the same supervisor! [2008-01-08]
*

I have known someone like that too - she was my supervisor also - LOL (sm) [2008-01-07]
People like that have emotional issus - I think it is a mental illness of sorts personally. So if you can think of her as sick and when you talk to her, just say nothing personal about yourself, just like you are doing, and smile, talk about the weather may, if you have to talk to her, just something neutral. If she ever asks your or prods you for what is going on in your life, just always say that everything is great, everything is wonderful, can't even believe how good everything is!

Happy Thanksgiving & we thank our military! (sm) [2007-11-19]

Beef jerky is a great gift and Jolly Ranchers. My husband is very popular at mail call time.

Sons in Military - Thank You [2007-10-16]
Thanks, next time I hear from either one of my children, I'll ask them about this. I wonder why the military just doesn't supply them with it ????? Thanks so much.

She needs her keester booted into the military! [2007-09-15]
Let them apply that tough love and discipline and she can even get herself an education, food, medical care,and housing.

Was that supervisor in the military or something? [2007-07-29]
One day you should have all plotted together and when she came in the room, jumped up and saluted. ROFL I had a barium enema quite a while ago and my splenic flexure goes up really high and then twists. Sometimes gas will get stuck in there and it will hurt like the dickens. I'm glad I had the BE, though, because I know what it is and that it will pass in a little while. If it didn't, I would be at the urgent care pronto.

Either the bank or Military Surplus store. [2007-07-26]
There would be only two reasons for me to run away from my home. One reason would be voluntarily, as in winning the lottery--hence the bank. The other would also be voluntary but there would be retribution involved--hence the Military Surplus store.

A military man shot his wife [2007-07-15]
This man was our sonfun guy to be around, always smiling, always happy. But now, this and I can't get over the sick feeling in my stomach. He is on the run, of course. He left behind his little boy, with no mother and now no father. Temporary insanity?????

Please remember our military today! [2007-07-04]
Happy 4th to everyone! Please just take a minute today to remember all of our wonderful, brave men and women who have fought to make this day possible. This is not just another holiday to get time and a half, or just another day to complain about no work, bad hours, etc. This is a day to celebrate our freedom, the freedom that is made possible by every member of our military!! Please remember them in your prayers today.

1. Escalate the problem to a supervisor. 2. Write a letter. [2007-04-20]

If I had a child in the military now, [2007-02-02]
sorry but probably would do as a lot of families did for Vietnam war and that was to head for the border, namely Canada. I thought if gay in the military, supposed to try and keep it quiet?? These to me are ever bit as bad as protesting at funeral of AIDS patients. You have some really sick people in this world to do things like this and please, like you, I don't want to get started on the other folks president in Washington.

Ask to speak with his supervisor and also [2007-01-18]
write a letter to the bank (and headquarters) telling them what happened and make sure you get the man's name and refer to him often in your letter.

Same here - military fixed him tho [2007-01-18]
His pants were hanging down really low and I had asked him a million times to just pull them up a little bit. He wouldn't do it. Went to the recruiter's office with him and his recruiter met us out in the foyer between all the military offices. Son reached out to shake his hand and the recruiter instead reached over and jerked his pants down. Didn't say one word. Turned around walked into his office. Son pulled his pants up to where they should have been. The recruiter then comes right back out, says hello, and shakes his hand. Son never wore his pants like that again and, yes, he still enlisted. :)

Abraham Lincoln's Thanksgiving Proclamation 1863 [2008-11-19]
Abraham Lincoln while that theatre has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union. Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the fields of peaceful industry to the national defence, have not arrested the plough, the shuttle, or the ship; the axe had enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than heretofore. Population has steadily increased, notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege and the battle-field; and the country, rejoicing in the consciousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years, with large increase of freedom.No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy.It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently and gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and voice by the whole American people. I do therefore invite my fellow citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next, as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings, they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to his tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquillity and Union.In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.Done at the city of Washington, this third day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the independence of the United States the eighty-eighth.By The President: Abraham LincolnWilliam H. Seward, Secretary of State

Totally think it is really none of your [2008-11-18]
business that they are working. You don't have any authority and your supervisor is the one to tell them NOT to work. If they have been told not to work and they are, that is between them and the employer.

very displeased with 2 of my friends right now [2008-11-15]
We all work for the same company. Our employer offers three types of employment: Full-time, part-time and on-call. Well, work has been low and the on-call gals have been asked to halt production and allow those of us full and part-timers to meet our quota. They know I work full time, as I must, being the sole-provider for my family. They both have husbands and only work on-call for spending money. So, of course, I ran out of work today. Friend number one calls and tells me she I don I asked her why she was working, knowing work was low, and she stated to me that with the holidays coming up she needs a much larger paycheck this next time around. ARRGHH! I already talked to our supervisor about the two of them. I feel that since we are friends, I should not have to be the one to tell them that they are taking food off my plate. I I know there Thanks.

FYI [2008-11-11]
This information comes from the Mensa International web site: Mensa was founded in England in 1946 by Roland Berrill, a barrister, and Dr. Lance Ware, a scientist and lawyer. They had the idea of forming a society for bright people, the only qualification for membership of which was a high IQ. The original aims were, as they are today, to create a society that is non-political and free from all racial or religious distinctions. The society welcomes people from every walk of life whose IQ is in the top 2% of the population, with the objective of enjoying each other's company and participating in a wide range of social and cultural activities. Mensans range in age from 4 to 94, but most are between 20 and 60. In education they range from preschoolers to high school dropouts to people with multiple doctorates. There are Mensans on welfare and Mensans who are millionaires. As far as occupations, the range is staggering. Mensa has professors and truck drivers, scientists and firefighters, computer programmers and farmers, artists, military people, musicians, laborers, police officers, glassblowers--the diverse list goes on and on. There are famous Mensans and prize-winning Mensans, but there are many whose names you wouldn't know. The term IQ score is widely used but poorly defined. There are a large number of tests with different scales. The result on one test of 132 can be the same as a score 148 on another test. Some intelligence tests don't use IQ scores at all. Mensa has set a percentile as cutoff to avoid this confusion. Candidates for membership in Mensa must achieve a score at or above the 98th percentile on a standard test of intelligence (a score that is greater than or equal to that achieved by 98 percent of the general population taking the test). As this list suggests, Mensa is a remarkably diverse organization. While Some Mensans noted here are well known, many others lead interesting lives out of the public eye. Geena Davis: Academy-award winning actress, who has starred in The Long Kiss Goodnight, A League of Their Own, Thelma and Louise and Hero. Donald Petersen: A former chairman of Ford Motor Company.

I want to see Calie and McSteamy [2008-11-05]
I think Calie and McSteamy make a good couple. Yang and the new military doc would made a good entertaining story too so I hope they become a couple too.

Tx for your kind words [2008-10-29]
I do feel better. His brother has always felt as though he is superior to all his brothers because his mom keeps pumping that up, telling him how smart he is and wishes his brothers were as smart as he is (it sure is amazing what parent would say such things right in front of you). DH and I do realize they are just ignorant. DH said they are like strangers to me. The moving comment was kind of idiotic. DH would have had a career (and retirement) from the service but when it came time to re-enlistment he was getting ready to sign up to go to officer training, but his parents conned him into a job. They even had a freind who was some executive at a company who offered him a job paying 2 - 3 times as much as what the military did, so we opted for that. They did that so we would move out to live near them. DH showed up for the first day of work and the guy asked him what he was doing there. He said reporting for work. The guy said what work. There is no job opening here. It was at that point he should have turned around and re-enlisted but didn't. After that we moved 5 times in 20 years. Anyway...thanks for the kind words. DH & I are past it....too much going on in our lives to even think of him anymore.

Who needs them [2008-10-28]
Yesterday I was saddened beyond words. Who needs enemies with family like this. DH was talking to his half brother (15 years younger than DH) and these are some of the statements brother made to him. First let mesayhis brother is from a second marriage. MIL hates to acknowledge her3 kids from her first marrage. She has always felt they are inferior to her youngest. They live in a different state so we don So here is what his little punk half brother said to him. Even though it is brought on by political talk, this is more of a family issue post so didncomments (whichwere spoken with fake southern accent). 1. I'm not dumb, I went to a University (husband went to state colleges). 2. When told he should be prepared if he gets drafted he said oh no they wouldn't draft me, I work for a prestigious company and I went to a University and if I was drafted I would automatically be an officer, I wouldn't have to do all the other stuff the uneducated ones do. 3. Why do you live in that state you do? Only bumpkins live there. 4. Why do you keep moving? Have you done something illegal and are trying to hide? (Weve been at the same address for 2 years. 5. You should be happy is O gets in, you When DH said what in the world makes you think I donyou do? (I think it's odd that he didn't even ask DH what he does). 6. You know your just stup!d because you voted for GW. When DH said to him what makes you think we voted for him? He just said you didn We all thought you voted for him. DH said, no I didn 7. He made a comment about there might be a bloody war coming in the middle east and then said Oh I. DH said well no, why would you say that. Then the little *(% changes the subject. In the past we have been told that only the stup!d uneducated people go into the military (we were both in the military - me for 3 years and DH for 12 years. Husband also has an IQ of around 129, but he has always been told he is inferior (not in those exact words) because he didnUniversity. DH told him I wanted to go to this place or that and if mommy daddy could pay the way for me too I would have been able to go(not in those exact terms) and then his brother got upset and was trying to say DH was saying he was stup!d. Then his mom got in on it and told DH he's picking on him and jealous, etc. I just canhis own brother could say such hurtful things. I could understand if its someone you donItthat he He said their true colors really came out. And if you want to talk about intelligence DH will bring up subjects like what All he wants to talk about is sports (which DH hates sports) or who the Survivor or American Idol winner is. It is just really sad to be treated like your nothing by your own family. We have decided we will not be answering the phone from now on if he calls and just not talking to him for a long long time and let him think about what he did. Me particularly, I don Just very very sad. Okay, Sorry so long, just felt heartbroken and had to get it out.

Thanks [2008-10-28]
I know everyone has differences of opinions. My mom and I sure had ours but we were never disrespectful. And all over what, politics???? Your going to insult your own family and tell them they are stup!d right to their faces because they don't share the same viewpoints you do? It's sickening beyond words. This brother has caused so many upsets in the past. Always was a little sh!!-disturber. One mothers day we all went out to eat a a mexican restaurant and there were two guys having lunch there (could have been brother, friends, or whatever), but my BIL actually turned his chair around and kept stairing at them and then commenting to everyone at the table that there were f@gs. I was utterly and truly disgusted and repulsed beyond all belief (and he was 18 years old so he knew better. He kept saying it loud enough because he wanted them to hear. Finally they got up and came over and asked if there was a problem. This was about the same time I was leaving to call a cab (my husband said heGee, my supervisor and I go out to lunch, are you going to call us derogatory names! I was fuming fumning fuming beyond words (that was the start of a difficult relationship with his family). Oh yes, when those two guys came over to our table to ask what the problem was, he went and hid behind his mother. We do feel good about the decision not to talk to them for a long time. Never would be fine by me.

Tell me what to do... [2008-09-22]
I have been divorced for 5 years now. My kids spend every other holiday with their dad and all summer long, since he lives out of state. This last trip over the summer they were gone for two months. After about a month there my son tells me that he wants to come home (he is 7 and A daughter thats 5). I make him stay. I tell him that its daddy's turn to see you and that he misses you very much. Now, since he has been home, he says he does not want to go for Christmas. My ex is remarried and has another child. Mind you he only married her because he got her pregnant. He was over in Iraq when the baby was born, so he is not on the Birth Certificate. So, when it comes to putting baby on tricare, they would not recognize the child since he was not on BC so the get hitched at a justice og the peace. Now I don't care what he does with his life as long as he remains a good father. Well, my son doesn't want to go back. I always said that when he was old enough to make up his mind, if he didn't want to go I would not force it. Today, my sitter calls and tells me something my son said to her. He said that when he was with his dad, he spilled his daddy's drink by accident and daddy got really mad. He pushed him into a wall and cut his ear. She stated that his sister said it did happen. I ask him about this and he gets so defensive. I did not accuse him, I just said WE need to have a talk with him. But he blows up anyway. Ever since the divorce and his new family he doesn't call but once or twice a month and on his BDU's he has his other daughters name and says he keeps her close to his heart. Well what about the other two kids he has. Out of sight out of mind. He has never paid the court ordered amount of child support either. He goes in to the finance office and changes the amount whenever he feels like it. He is now over 4k behind. I have tried calling his commanding officer, but no luck. I can't afford an attorney. I am filing a petition for modification of child support because he is a major in the military and should be paying more. He does not help with extra activities or docotrs bills. He does nothing put pay what he feels he should be paying. Please help!

your post [2008-09-22]
Being a military widow, I would call the Jag office but think first talking to his CO would work, if no help there then the military attornys

Two can play their game. Start nagging them. [2008-09-11]
Call them daily. Ask to speak to supervisor, then their supervisor, etc. You become the pest. It's not easy, but it may work. You could hire an attorney, but try the above first. Good luck.

How do you psych yourself [2008-09-04]
I I find myself constantly coming to this board. Sometimes I just feel I can I just got my first cup of coffee so that will help, but how do you psyche yourselves out to begin working a full day of typing, typing, typing, and more typing, and if you don I So I have to work. I have no choice. But I am so so tired. I I do like my job compared to others I have had, but I think I just feel so burnt out and wonder how other MTs begin their days. PS - I am not a morning person at all. I have tried, tried, tried to get up at 6 am to begin with a walk or some type of exercise but I can Is there a vitamin or something that would perk me up maybe?

Wish I was in your shoes. [2008-08-31]
I would do it in a heartbeat. Don't be afraid. Like another poster said, you can always move back. I now have a husband and kids and my family lives about 8 hours away. I miss my niece and nephew dearly but see them as often as I can. I stayed a month when each was born and then traveled every other weekend for several years. They are getting to be school age now so they know me well and I send things often. It has just become too expensive to travel that much. I would just keep in mind with your BIL being in the military they may not be where they are longterm so that could pose a sticky situation if you get involved with someone special. Might want to talk to your sister. I know mine knows me better than anyone and always has great advice.

don't take this the wrong way, but... [2008-08-21]
What makes you think that just because they are fighting for our freedom that they are any less stupid than the average Joe 18-year-old? I was an army wife for quite a few years and believe me, 18-year-olds military personelare defninitely not smarter or more mature than any other 18-year-old civilian. And whether or not they lower the legal drinking age to 18 ot keep it at 21, a good majority of 18-year-olds will be drinking anyway, military or civilian. Personally I think the only alcohol should be used for cooking only, not drinking. JMO

Yes AND no. [2008-08-19]
I really don't believe the legal drinking age to go back to 18, however, if the legal drinking age is 21 then that should be the minimum age for joining our military. If an 18 year old is not mature enough to handle some beer, then they aren't mature enough to go to war. If they are old enough for war, then they're old enough for a beer too.

Lower it - 21 is too high [2008-08-19]
1. Three years is not a huge difference. 2. Most kids are drinking earlier than 21 anyway and nobody is enforcing the law when they get caught drinking under age. 3. It was 18 when I was 18 and there was not a high incidence of drunk driving or whatever reason they have for a drinking age. 4. Germany there is no drinking age and they do not have a high rate of drunk drivers (they have one of the lowest rates of any country). 5. If they are not going to lower the drinking age they should then raise the age of joining the military. Someone tell me that it makes sense that they can't drink til their 21, but at 18 years old in the military they are given guns and can use them. Some kids will be responsible and some kids won't. I know a lot of people who are in their 20s and 30s and older who are very irresponsible when it comes to drinking - btw, I am 48 years old, not 18, 19, or 20 (and just want the age lowered) :-)

She has some options -sm [2008-08-06]
The first of which she needs to see her first shirt or commander. She could maybe get reassigned to another base stateside and not be deployed right now. She also could take emergency leave. She could also allow her parents or another close relative to take care of the child for a time. The thing is, she has signed a contract that is hard to break. While her superiors will most likely work with her, she is under obligation to serve as expected along with everyone else.If she goes AWOL, as someone suggested, she is subject to jail time when she is caught (and believe me, the military can find you!). Been connected with the military for 45 years now. That is just the way it is.

Sorry, I don't mean to make light of the [2008-08-06]
situation from the OP. However, people are going crazy over this and the individual being discussed is not even a part of this conversation. For all anyone knows, this had been handled and the dictator did not mention it in his dictation or has been handled since, so why are so many in an uproar???? I am not in the military, but my nephew is in the Army, and in his unit each situation is handed on an individual basis--there is not a blanket protocol for things of this nature.

Just had an eye-opener -- [2008-08-05]
I just finished transcribing a report on a 3-month-old with a viral meningitis. The mom is being shipped out to Iraq in less than a week. The baby was born several weeks prematurely (with no apparent complications) and now is being admitted with this illness. I I realize the FMLA only allows for 12 weeks, but this isn She will be leaving her infant to go to another country. Is this standard operating procedure? I thought moms could be honorably discharged or at least given a year at home with a newborn. I have always been very grateful to our service men and women, whether I agree or disagree with the war in Iraq. I am certainly not questioning this mom I I don't have any close female family or friends in the military that I could ask, so I was hoping someone here might know.

She can request emergency leave. [2008-08-05]
My husband is active duty Air Force, so I know a little bit about the military. As far as I know, she can request emergency leave because of the situation with her infant. Also, I do not think they just give military mom I know several women that are active duty military that have had children, and they are given the same amount of maternity leave as a civilian.

Military [2008-08-05]
Well, I was in the military, and that is one of the big reasons I chose to get out! I got out in 94, so I'm not exactly sure what has changed, but here goes... First, my mouth dropped open when I read your post! I have a 14 and 7 year old and can't imagine leaving them, sick or not! But a 3-month-old baby! When I was in, it used to be if you got pregnant, you had the choice of being discharged. Last I knew, you could request a hardship discharge, based on the circumstances of the baby being in the hospital, preemie, etc. But here's the catcher to all this...it IS the military! If they don't want to let you out, they don't have to! They can do anything they feel like! That's what is BS! Sorry, this mom should NOT be going anywhere, let alone Iraq, with her baby in this state! Wow! Okay now you got me going!

I have no idea whether the mom [2008-08-05]
had any issues with the fact that she was being deployed. There was nothing mentioned in the social history about caregiver issues, psychosocial stressors, etc. So, I I guess I was just questioning what the maternity policy is in the service dept. I guess I just thought when you had a baby in the military, you were given the option of being discharged or being stationed in the USA. Since your hubs is in the Air Force (bless him by the way), could you tell me what the maternity policy is for female officers? Are they only allotted 6 or 12 weeks (for a healthy newborn delivery)? Can they request to be stationed in the USA for a period of time after that? I have kids, and I just can Of course, any age would be difficult, but an infant is so dependent on her mom. Wow - what an eye opener and definitely some food for thought today.

smith [2008-08-05]
No smart-one, I don't know it all just by guessing! I lived it! What experience do you have with the military?!

i hope she finds a way [2008-08-05]
to be with her baby longer. but i have a neighbor who joined the military and then when she was told she was going to be deployed, she got herself pregnant, so she didn't have to go. she has done this twice now. i know these are very different situations, but this latter one is wrong.

What he needs is some parents with some sense (sm) [2008-08-04]
I feel sorry for you as his neighbor and sorry for him that his parents have raised him to be this way. They shouldn If the people who are supposed to love you more than anyone on Earth treat you like that, then how would you possibly learn to treat other people with decency and respect? If anything actually needs to happen, it is that DSS needs to be called and told how the parents talk to their child.
