This board isn't a job interview.

This is a place to kick back, relax, and vent. I don't see this as a place where people have to behave professionally, although it'd be nice if they behaved more politely.
There's a time and place, and what you see is appropriate for this place. I'd expect to see professionalism on the job search boards.
There are all kinds of ways to get work done. You're right that it's a privilege to be able to work from home. You do it in your manner, and others do it in theirs. As long as the output is professional quality and timely, the methods are as individual and as varied as the people.
That's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it!

There was an interview sm
in People Mag just a few weeks ago about this very thing. The bride sent it to her bridemaids as a joke. She had found it on the internet. There was a picture of her and her bridemaids and they all agreed that they took it as a joke.
He already had an interview
They told him when he applied that they pick the top three applicants and interview them. The interviews were last Tuesday. They said they should have an answer in a week.
Maybe we'll hear something today. We are just anxious to know if he got it or not. I would think by now with only three applicants to choose from they would have an answer.
when I saw the first interview, they said -
I know he/she had the breast removed and then started taking hormones to be more of a man. The hormones make the clitoris enlarge to where he/she considers it a small penis. The female parts were left in for the express purpose of being able to have his/her own biological child one day. Therefore, the hormones were stopped and they went through artificial insemination and once they stop having children, then the hormones will start again to make her appear more manly again.
Did anyone see the interview with
the mom of 14? I missed it and was hoping to catch it on the 'net somewhere. Can anyone tell me what show it was on?
I only caught a bit of the interview, but - sm
she looked almost like she was on drugs... She was very stone faced and did not seem to show any emotion. I do not know, just take the baby and leave seems to e a better idea than shooting him... Just my opinion
During her interview, it was said it cost...sm
100k total for all the in vitro procedures. I have not heard an answer as to how she paid for all this. Does any one know?
girls fighting....and did you see the interview?
the one where Matt Lauer interviews the mother of one of the attackers?? She painted her daughter out to be a saint, how her daughter warned the victim not to go in the house. Matt asked her why her daughter was there for 30 minutes yet didn't call police. She didn't have an answer for that one. And she also said that the victim should get part of the blame because she was trash talking on myspace about the girls.
I say try them as adults too. One of the lookouts was an 18 yo boy.
I worry about my 11 yo son. What kind of world will he be living in??
I read an interview with her family....
They won't even say his name. I don't wish he would've died. I wish they would've thrown his a@@ in jail like he deserved. He has no business being in the postion of authority he is in. He should've been punished for what he did and he shouldn't be allowed to be making decisions that affect this country.
Didn't you see the Anna Nicole interview
on ET? She was beaten and abused by her mother from the sound of it. Being a cop makes no difference, if you have anger problems they can even be worse with stressful job like that. She HATED her mother and during the interview was spitting fire when she was talking about her. She vowed never to let her mother go near her baby daughter Danielynn. A mother is much more than just giving birth.
good luck - at least you got to the interview stage
I am in the same position - so burned out on MT - looking for anything that will use my skills and experience in healthcare but not specifically sitting at a keyboard all day, listening to the voices in my head.
I just watched the interview on the Today Show SM
where the a hung jury concerning the boyfriend of a woman after he kicked her seven pouond cat, Norman to death. No penalty at all. He says the cat bit him and he just "reacted." He kicked it repeatedly until he broke severa bones, broke his teeth and injured his lungs and left it to die. This happened after a heated argument between the this man and his girlfriend. Can you imagine showing your face on national television saying you were pleased with the outcome in this brutal outright case of animal abuse? Over 200 pound man kicks a cat to death and he and his attorney are trying to justify this. What a poor excuse for a human being. He claims it was not done out of spite to punish his girlfriend. You decide.
Did anyone see Tammy Faye interview with Larry King?
I was shocked by her appearance, poor thing. She was only 65 pounds. SHe was so brave to go on national TV in her condition, and so upbeat. I never knew much about her except from the PTL scandal until I saw her on Surreal Life, and she came across as very down to earth and likeable.
Could someone tell me if there is a Christianity board as well as a prayer board (sm)
or are they one in the same? I have some faith related questions, but don't want to post on the prayer board again if it is specifically for prayer requests. I do not see a Christianity board listed. Thanks so much.
Main board, gab board, company, etc, just like here,
x
naw - that was the old board that did that, aka the 'other' board!
why was it here and not on the Politics board anyway?
Is that board still available?
Thought I had it in favorites, but takes me to the main board . . . I do not have board options to the left though. Anyway, the Gab board is to gab about anything not MT, so I'm sure she's fine here, but I had been trying to check out the WAHM board yesterday and couldn't get there, so just thought it funny you brought it up today.
a new board??
Oh, I love it. We can yak about anything here? I'' be back! 
RE: Gab board
Sorry about that. . .I'm new to this site. I'll take my questions out to the Company Board. I might get some additional advice there. 
I don't think many on this board ... sm
I posted on scrapbooking one time and didn't get any response. I love to scrapbook and I am about to finish up one that is a thank you gift for the family that we stayed with last year on vacation in Colorado.
I am limited in what I can spend on it so I have to depend on a paper cutter, scissors and I love corner punches. I think I have seen the machine that you are asking about but I really don't know anything about it.
The question I posted back quite a while ago is concerning scrapbook programs on the computer. Do you know anything about them? I think I would like to use one of those programs but I have not found anyone as of yet who is knowledgeable about them. I was trying to research that one day through Google and found this website. You might find the answer to your question on here: twopeasinabucket.com This is a scrapbooking website and I found it quite interesting although I didn't have a lot of time to spend looking for the answer to my question. Good luck!
About using this board -
Does anybody know why, especially in the replies, when I click on the subject sometimes I just get one letter or a mark, or there just isn't anything there? Am I doing something wrong?
I think there is only one Jan on the board,
so you can always skip her posts if you don't want to read them.
When somebody is hurting, it is only natural for a caring person to offer whatever they have that could help. Every Christian on earth was once a nonchristian, and somebody led them to Christ, perhaps by offering them help or hope in a time of need.
Nonchristians of all kinds are also free to offer whatever help or hope they have to offer.
I saw this on another board I was on
and it was said that Walter Reed will not pass out cards made out to "A Recovering American Soldier." So you might want to check before you do it.
Thanks, JMR, we need more like you on this board!
Thanks so much, will copy your info down. MERRY Christmas, and thanks for your positive and kind input!!!
what other old board?
.
What other board?
nt
You don't pay for the other board....
the best thing about it is nobody is nasty towards each other, no name calling if you have a different opinion about something, not much whining and complaining about how horrible someone's job is, etc. A nice breath of fresh air over there. Been on the political board here lately? If you want to see nastiness, pettiness and childish behaviour, hop on over there for a bit.
Where is the other board?
I would like to communicate with some nice people.
Can you tell me where the other board is too?
Thank you.
How many on the board
are finding it hard to make their house payment, car payment or credit card payment?
No you do not need the board, but you do need
xx
this board
I would liken this board to a bus stop. Or talking to someone in line. Americans love to do that. Mindless chit chat, no politics, religion, or anything too personal. I hope you are not scarred, but virtually (pun intended) no one feels super anonymous here. You are okay, just remember you are at the bus stop and these are not your sisters....
Why is there so much assuming on this board
because once you assume you know what you are talking about, usually wrong as you are in this case. I took in my stepgrandchildren, 3 of them, 8, 13 and 15 and raised them for 3 years. Their mother on crack, their father in prison and they went around their real grandmother's home and she sold dope and illegal alcohol from her home. I went to their school, middle and grammer, endlessly. I saw things I never saw as I was growing up, so disrespectful to authority figures. The mother took son to crack house with her, kids lucky to eat 1 meal a day when not living with me. So instead of telling me I don't know, think I have probably lived it. I doubt all the kids getting the diagnosis of attention deficit really fit that category. Oh, tell me I don't know about that either, not so because a neighbor of mine used to get a check and had her son diagnosed just to get a check. Get your head out of the sand.
On another thread on this board....
someone made the comment about giving girls a false sense of security and not getting PAPs and physicals because they got the vaccine. That was something I hadn't thought about previously.
I was talking about this with a friend of mine and we got on the subject of DES that was given to prevent miscarriages and preterm labor in the 50s and 60s and the side effects that came from it. I googled DES and the one website has a copy of an old ad that states "recommended for routine prophylaxis in ALL pregnancies" with a picture of a smiling baby above the statement. We all know how that turned out!
States have made all kinds of vaccines mandatory for admittance to kindergarten, but there are ways around it, such a religious exemption. I have another friend whose kids have had NONE of their childhood immunizations. I'm not saying I agree with anything that drastic, but her kids are in school.
Anything BUT transcription on the Gab board, please. NM

anyone who has to come to a public board like this
Anyone who has to go on a public board/forum and brag on and boast about ANYTHING- ( about A MAN, no less *L*).....just makes most posters question the credibility of such posters. Anyone who is truly happy....has no need to type all this on a public forum....nor to hang out on one....
the hubby *put you on a pedestal* so now you can reach the keyboard....*lol* -
Now really, all the nasty, antagonistic posters, and in this particular thread, should get off their mommy's computers and go outside and play because from my view, it's a spectacularly gorgeous day outside
*laughs*
prayer board
Do you have a line right up above your post that says "Mental Health Board - Autoimmune Board - Prayer Request" ? For some reason I can only see this when I'm on the Gab Board.
Yes "Gab Board" is on the right but
I still don't see what you see. I feel like an id!ot. I have seen the prayer board before and have even visited it but it is not here now.
The board moderator
Frankly, I think the moderator of this board does a very good job considering the many posts on a vast variety of topics, and with numerous personalities posting them. If I or my friend on this board would be doing anything that is unacceptable or inappropriate we would have been told. I am quite sure of that.
Why this person continues to make an issue of our conversations about the beauty of animals and the love we share for them and our animals is totally beyond the reach of what I can understand. Frankly, the last post two days after the first insult is an indication to me that it is ongoing. If anyone needs to be told, it is the one who won't leave us or the matter alone. We have done absolutely nothing wrong and have said absolutely nothing inappropriate. I am tired of the issue. It was ridiculous two days ago. No one is forced to participate in this board or made to continue to read what is supposed to be so boring and meaningless. What is meaningless is this constat back and forth over something that is not her business.
To my friend (one of them) on this board
Hey, hi. Actually I was going to ask you yesterday to email me directly concerning my CD. If you would not mind, you could give me your address and I would love to mail you one with a copy of the lyrics. I am not doing this because of any other reason, and would love to hear from you on the board as well, but I know we cannot exchange names/addresses on the board. If that sound like a plan you do just that. Have a wonderful weekend and kiss YOU KNOW WHO for me . better not mention a DOG . . .
Where did the recipe board go?sm
I am looking for a dessert recipe that will hold up in traveling. I am driving to a graduation party two hours away. I live in New England and right now it is super hot. I can put it on ice. I do not know what to bring. This person is constantly bringing something to our house when she comes. A plant, a bottle of wine, a candle etc. The party is being catered (in their backyard) so I am thinking more on the way of a dessert. Any suggestions?
heathen board
Just about anywhere you look...
Another one on Medquist Board.

This is too much! I was just over on the Religion board and sm
someone posted a link to Alan Jackson's How Great Thou Art. It was an amazing tribute. Then another slow song came on after that and I came over here while letting the music play in the background. I was doing fine until I read about the 10 y.o. getting fitted for dentures. I am bawling my eyes out over here! I have a sweet, precious, well-behaved 10 year old son. I can't imagine. I just can't. O God, help us.
Thanks for that! It is also on Christianity Board (sm)
It's so poignant that it's good to have it on both!!
Oiuja board
In reference to your thoughts about the Ouija board, I just want to share a story. I had changed my lifestyle, didn't party anymore after being saved. I happened to go out with friends for a close friend's birthday - drinking. Went back to a friend's house, and she pulls out a cardboard and starts to make a oiuja board. I refused to participate. The 3 of them did, at which time I started praying silently, rebuking anything not of Jesus, etc, etc, etc. Well, she would try and try to make the thing move and work. It would not. She was progressively getting more and more frustrated. She looks at me and growls, "Are you praying? You better stop!" I said no. Something made me do it, but I put my hand over the little deal that is supposed to move - my goodness, I felt a power under that thing, like a vibration. You know what it did - it shot off the board away from me. I did it again and it did the same thing. Those were the only times the thing moved! After the other 2 saw that, they said "oh, bleep, I'm not messing with that." I told them, it's not me, it's God and his power. Anything not of God has to flee! So moral of story is, believe what you've heard, that the ouija board invites spirits and worlds that you don't want to mess with!
By the way, years, years ago before this incident, I was mixed up with drugs and alcohol. One morning after doing cocaine, I had a paralyzing nightmare too - after that, I too kept having the recurring dream, where I would be paralyzed with fear "in my dream," it was like I was trying to hard to wake myself up and I just couldn't. Anyway, that first one, when this happened, I never could fall into deep REM sleep - because of the drug - I opened my eyes from that paralyzing nightmare and I really was awake, mind you, and saw a figure that looked like satan that covered the entire doorway. I guess it was what I imagined what satan would look like subconsciouly - shiny, blackish red raw muscle. I was paralyzed with fear and could not move. I believe I really did see it and was not a hallucination. I was actually awake because I picked up the phone and called my boyfriend and he said, get in the car and come over, and I said I couldn't because I couldn't move. I always felt it was God's way of allowing this to set me straight - you know, like scared straight. Because eventually soon afterward, I did change my lifestyle.
just gabbing on the gab board -nm
