I think the smell would be better in New Orleans
No thanks.
I smell a huge rat
Is your husband up to no-good with this loser? First of all any "my baby's daddy" situation has scumbag written all over it. Second of all, if your husband doesn't mind being used by this lazy bum for a free place to live, he has to be getting something out of the bargain. I'd be doing some serious checking around if I were you.

Meanwhile, you're right to keep this piece of crap away from your kids. If your husband likes him so much let him live with this waste of oxygen alone.

Good luck.
Sadly, nothing gets cig smell out of anything. It
always sneaks back. I have been burned 3 times out of 4 on E-Bay with MT stuff. I am a huge buyer and seller, and its the only area I've not been happy with, so I'd rather buy new now than risk it. Hopefully it will work. One thing I have tried is sealing whatever it is up in a bag for as long as possible, or as frequently as possible, with a Outdoor Fresh Scent Bounce or two in the sealed bag with the item. Over time the Bounces absorb some of the cig smell. But it would be a hassle undoing a C-phone every day and bagging it. Sorry - that smell makes me sick, too, and I used to smoke! Good luck.
do I smell a newbie/cherrypicker?
You go over seas, learn medicine in conjunction with a new language fluently, then tell us how easy it is?  These ESLs at least make an effort to slow down and be understood, more than I can say for the Americans.  Besides, it is our job, being transcriptionists, to decipher these accents, research, and come up with the correct terminology for the report.  Would you like mister rogers to dictate all of them? Come on, you can handle it!
Me too, how funny! It does smell good!

I smell a rat. If it were me, I would consider this the first red flag and be on the lookout

I smell a dead cat on the line.... so to say.
Such as in "another woman."

Vinegar also takes smell out. sm

I always use vinegar when I need to get a smell out. 


Whenever I burn popcorn in the microwave, I fill a coffee cup full of vinegar and set it in the microwave.  It always takes the smell out.


I've steam cleaned pet soil out of my carpet using vinegar and baking soda, and the odor always goes away.


 


I smell a rat - I mean bully. Same thing.:)

OP,


I agree with Katz.  No need to use profanity however.  Don't risk your dignity and self-respect by stooping to her level. Yet, I agree with everything else, like telling her to shut up in a nice way -- let her know you are working and you suggest she does the same.  She feels threatened obviously, so don't make it easy for her by quitting which is probably what she wants.  I don't think the boss wants you to quit, however.  It sounds like she just wants to skip out on the pay increase and manipulate the situation to her benefit (according to what you have said so far). 


As for Ms. Obnoxious, sounds like she has figured out the only one she needs to get along with is the boss.  And if she can get you to leave, then more work and job security for her.  It's an awful mess of a situation you are in.  I don't tolerate bullies and neither should you, and that is exactly what she sounds like -- a bully.  You will have to give her the silent treatment instead of her giving you the silent treatment and even if she does give you the silent treatment, good.   It doesn't sound like she has anything worthy to say anyway.   In the meantime, if you want to be there for any reason -- to pay off a debt, to go back to school, to gain more experience before leaving, etc. -- then stay as long as you want.  When you are ready, find the new job, test it out, then make the switch at your own pace.  With your typing speed, I don't doubt you will be able to find something better.  Just don't make it easy for anyone by quitting. 


You are all that matters, especially on a job.  Workers are not your friend. You have to find that outside of the workplace.  I don't think talking to either one of them is worth anything.  They already know they are in the wrong. 


Best of luck to you.

moldy smell in carpet
I had the same thing and ended up finally tearing up the whole carpet and pad, then installing a wood laminate floor. It was expensive, but I had tried EVERYTHING, to no avail. Baking soda and vinegar are excellent remedies, IF the mold hasn't seeped into the pad. If it has, there is virtually nothing that will remove the smell altogether. We hadn't noticed the mold smell when we looked at the house. (The carpet had just been freshly shampooed to show the house.) It was after we bought it and moved in that we noticed it. Before my husband installed the wood laminate floor, we bleached the entire concrete slab, as the mold had also seeped in to the concrete. Bleach did the job on that. Good luck. :)
Wake up and smell the roses and not
alcohol breath - ewwww
well wake up and smell the coffee...

Ever since managed care came into being here, the doctors have been moaning and groaning...and less and less folks are actually entering the medical field today.....becauise nobody is earning the money they were 15-20 plus years ago.....There is a huge shortage of nurses also in this country - it's not profitable enough for anyone today...not like it used to be prior to managed care.....


I have been treated overseas and it IS better.....and I recently read an article that folks here, the elderly, are now relocating to India for long-term care at home....it's nearly free over there....if I ever find that article, I will repost here.....the couple the article was about are in their 80s and they get all their rxs, aides in the home (home health care), and treatment for a miniscule amount compared to here......the article showed pictures too.....all nice and clean and very efficient looking.  Plus, an added benefit is they are just more respectful of the elderly overseas.....in general and everywhere.....whether it be Europe or Asia.....while here, all they seem to be interested in in this country is YOUTH - a youth-oriented society it has been for a couple of generations now.


You *think* we have the best......but it might not always be as it seems and think of *down the road* - while less folks are entering the field(s) here - you'll find there will be less and less *the best*.....


 


Nope, we're everywhere on this board! Can't you smell us??

Candles that smell like fresh cut grass. sm
Gosh, I just love that smell.  Anyone know where I can purchase something like that?  What a great pick me up for winter.  Also, love the clean smell of fresh rain.  If  I could only bottle that aroma.....
Drench it with vinegar. It won't take the color out, and the smell will be gone.You can also add

baking soda to the vinegar.  It works really well. 


I use vinegar for anything with a smell.  If the trash can starts to smell, I pour vinegar in the bottom and let it sit overnight.  Then I just rinse it out in the morning.


Also, if you burn popcorn in the microwave, you can pour vinegar into a coffee cup and put it in the microwave.  Then let it sit in the microwave overnight.  By morning, the smell will be gone. 


 


I smell a corrective addendum coming -
The doc says,"the debridement contained subcutaneous and healthy necrotic tissue."  Say, what?  Healthy necrotic tissue?
Troll!
my original post regarding this is gone, so here I go again! In a nutshell, what I stated before...WOMEN should dress like WOMEN, girls like girls, etc. I am not saying that just because one reaches a certain age, thats it, no more sexy clothes, clevage, etc. I am saying, though, that WOMEN should not dress like GIRLS in order to look sexy and feel sexy.  I am 36, and dont dress like my 14 YOD...and I look dang sexy sometimes. But, I dont wear booty shorts, belly shirts, etc, etc...personally, I dont think that looks good on anyBODY... no matter how small, tall, big, short you are...I guess my point is women should dress like women, not girls...dont know how else to say it... Good day...
Obviously a troll
or other troublemaker.
A troll?

Troll (SM)
Just ignore the troll, posters.

Information has been reported to AOL for violation of their Terms of Service.

These individuals who post in this manner are usually very bored, angry, friendless, and anti-social (as we can all agree upon).

They are here to simply cause problems. Just ignore them and they will go away out of sheer boredom. If you will report the posts, I will delete them.

Really, I truly feel sorry for someone who has nothing better to do, don't you?

And yet here's another troll above...
Boy, they're really coming out from underneath their bridges tonight aren't they?  LOL...Shoo troll!
Go away little troll.
No one cares a fig about what you have to say.  Now poof!  Be gone you little gnat!
who is the troll?
you, on the other hand, are calling Miss Webster a troll for no apparent reason, you are using the head bash picture to reply to Miss Webster. Miss Webster is trying to reason with the OP in stating she did in fact not pass the tests and that is part of the problem. How does that make her a troll? Can you now see how your post makes you look like a troll and you are speading judgment?
what a troll you are!
Please reread your message.  I am an i d i o t? (and you must have posted twice because this is a "bad" word on the board).  Bad integrity?  I think you should look in the mirror first before trolling.  But hey, this is America and you are entitled to your opinion.  Have a nice day. 
No, she's just being a troll.
This is the type of MT who makes our profession look bad.

No matter what you say to her, she'll have some answer that she obviously thinks is too cute. She'll never agree because her sole purpose for posting is to get attention. Good or bad...it's still attention.

I really wish the moderators could ban people for just being troublemakers.
Jan, seriously, let it go. It's a troll, just let it be.
All of your ranting isn't going to deter him/her; quite the opposite.
maybe i am just a troll
and like to get sh*t started.
Anyone have a home remedy for loss of taste/smell?

This sinus cold has been dragging on for nearly 2 weeks now..going on day 5 of absolutely no sense of taste or smell....soooooooo tired of this


I haven't had taste or smell for over 10 years due to chemotherapy.
Sometimes that's a GOOD thing. Seriously.
home remedy for loss of taste/smell
How about zinc? I was told years ago that this helps with loss of taste and smell.
You need to get the smell/urine enzymes out of the carpet and furniture - sm
The dog will just continue to go back to where he peeed (?) again and again because he smells his scent. I don't think neuturing him will make a difference in that respect. You need to go buy Nature's Miracle Odor & Stain remover. It's pricey but it does the job....I learned this by working at PetsMart years ago and by personal experience. You have to soak whatever it is the dog peeed on though and let it air dry, takes a couple days. You will have to decide on how to "contain" him until the smell is gone, either in a smaller area of the house, outside, whatever. You might want to seriously try training him to go outside. He never learned that he should NOT go inside so that behavior of him going wherever he wants in the house is going to be difficult if not impossible to change. You may want to call a professional legit dog trainer in the area and get their thoughts and suggestions. You are going to have a hard time modifying the dogs behavior, but with a LOT of persistance and consistency you can prevail. Good luck.
Lilacs....ah, the smell of 'em!! Too bad they don't live long. nm

Not MT related - I need suggestions on getting the moldy smell out of carpet.
I have had the carpet professionally cleaned, but there is still that moldy smell from the carpet having gotten wet a while back from an overflowed washer. Anyone have any suggestions on what I can use to make the smell go away? I plan on ripping the carpet up at some point and redoing the floor, but not ready for that yet. In the mean time, now with the hot weather, the moldy smell is really obvious. Help!
