I am always so tempted to pretend to buy into it

and string them along thinking they have a catch. Someone did that and once and posted all the emails they had sent back and forth somewhere- they were hysterical.

Just pretend that....
you work on an hourly basis and have a production minimum for the pay period, as I do.  If I don't stay focused and work my shift, I'm fired within a week.  I am a hospital employee and have to work when I'm suppose to be working, no different than a nurse or any other employee.  Even though I'm at home, it doesn't matter.  Play mental games with yourself, it's worth a try.
There are also those that pretend to be dumb so they don't have to. sm
And those that call in sick every other day, that if they were really sick that often, they should be in nursing home.

Needless to say, I got out of supervising because I did not want to hate people anymore, and I could be petty like everybody else and get away with it like everybody else.

I've got wounds to nurse...

I'm tempted to bid on it just to tell him that he cannot tell
independent contractors what the pay will be. Otherwise, it's considered employee status if he's setting the rate.
ooh now I am tempted!
especially since I am going on a tropical getaway in 2 weeks!
Sometimes I get tempted to..
transcribe all the sounds that I hear, including the conversations where he trashes a patient and/or another doc, or tells dirty jokes in the locker room, etc.  When I get told "this is a verbatim account" it's especially tempting.  What say we all try it for a while?  More pay with all the extra words, maybe even more respect - no I guess not.
she also used to pretend to faint when she didn't get her way sm
or she would actually sit there and cry and cry and cry like a 2 year old.

She has since passed away, but I would give anything for one more day with her!

You're very very lucky - enjoy your beagle!!!
Honey, it is okay...you don't have to pretend anymore...
We don't even know you so you don't have to put up a front!!
I did. I'm just really tempted to NOT give it to him.
I lose money by searching for this information because he can't be bothered to even pronounce it correctly or spell it for me when he's looking right at it in the chart.
Pretend like they are all naked (Johnnie Carson did this). NM

No; I'm one of the itty bitties but it's fun to pretend! Lol. - No Message
: )
I am SO tempted to be passive aggressive here.
This darn doctor wants me to send a copy of the report to another physician.  "Send a copy of this to foreign doctor's name."  No spelling, no address, nothing.  I finally find the address by accident just by scrolling through the directory.  The doctor has not only badly mispronounced the name, but gave the last name as the first name.  I'm really tempted to provide the phonetic spelling as he dictated it and tag it with a noted telling him to verify the spelling and provide the address.  Really, how on earth am I supposed to know the doctor's information?
If it were my kid, I'd be very tempted to call off the party....
But I hope you figured something out. Let us know how you made out.
I listen to music and pretend that I'm playing the piano.
Lots of instrumental, classical and new age stuff. Have you played TyperShark on popcap.com yet?
Good point... Let me change that to, "like to pretend they are something

When they come back to you, I think I'd be tempted to say my rates are a bit higher now. sm
This could happen again next time some cheapo company comes along. Might as well charge for the headache and lost $ in advance.
:D -- I'd be real tempted, since she chooses to dictate
to type the words and/or phrases she breathes in while speaking as well. So something like, 'continue on the same regimen' - spoken on an inhale, should be typed: ' nemiger emas eht no eunitnoc'.

Might be good for a laugh____
No, don't! This is fun! If you go away, I'll be too tempted to go back up and read those UGLY
posts. I just know that then I will be rather more than irritated! If I read them...I can tell they're horrible...But if we're here, talking about warm milk, and who is who, and why is why, then none of us will have to go back UP and read those...other posts!!
I'd be tempted to think he meant SP02. That would be a reasonable air sat value, and sounds simi
