Tom's wives have been consistently
10 years younger than the previous. Looks like he'll be scoping out the Middle Schools soon. LOL.
While I don't believe that wives working is
wrong, I do think the original plan was for us to be homemakers and to take care of our families while the husband did the providing. It hasn't worked that way at my house (LOL) too much, but that's okay, too. My husband and I both work and contribute to the needs of our home. We have 2 grown children and they turned out okay. You can be a good mother even if you have to work outside the home. You just miss a lot that way. 
Maybe it's not for their wives. Maybe they found t hemselves a hooker or something. nm

Don't you love these doctor's wives who have to be in the office
but we all know they're just keeping an eye on the checkbook they married. So pathetic.
Doctor's wives as office mangers
is such a bad idea! All of the offices I have worked for have had the "wives" as OM's. They act like every penny they pay comes out of their pockets! Gawd, once one tried to get rid of me and go to some Indian company and her hubby Dr finally spoke up for himself and said "no way"!!
There are a lot of hubs-n-wives teams out here that own their own services, too. They seem to

I've had nothing but excellent experiences working with wives as OMs.
:)
and you can bet 99% of these guys are married, fat, bald freaks hiding from their wives
while pretending to be rich, attractive, and SINGLE
My sons are born again too and their wives can't leave the house, home school the kids, no tv,
and if my DIL wanted to work, it is out of the question. One of my sons just believes in having babies and having babies. They now have 5. I divorced his dad and apparently his dad taught them this is the American way. I just feel so bad for both my sons' wives. They both are born again and both live their life that way.
military
my grandfather and father were marines and my x-husband was a marine, all front line, first in last out. my father did 2 active tours in vietnam-by choice. not until recently would he talk about it, but when he does, the pride that is in his eyes is unreal. my x and i had just announced our engagement a few days before 9-11. he wanted to reinlist and i had the same fear that you do, that it wasn't for us. that's a decision that only you guys can make. as good as it can be, it can also be as horrible as can be. just like everything else in life it's how you approach and deal with it that will make you or break you. no matter what branch, you will always be able to find a friendly face anywhere in the world because there will always be someone else living the same experience. best of luck in your family's decision.
my 18 YO is considering the military...
and I don't know if I want him to do that or not. Has it been a positive experience so far for your son? If you don't mind, what branch did he join? I know you can't wait to hug your baby boy again! 
Military
It sounds as if he needs to grow up and accept responsibility for his actions. What did he expect the military to be like??? You just dress up and march in parades? Get real!
Military
Actually, I'm glad he's out-- I wouldn't want a wimp like him "protecting" me or this country anyway. I hope he enjoys his NEW time away from his family being in the brig. Like, duh----. 
military deserter?
Don't you have him confused with his predecessor?
Anyone's husband in the military?
My husband is thinking of joining the military. He has always wanted to since we met about 7 years ago and we just went to a wedding where his couisin was there, who just got back from Iraq. His cousin is going back voluntarily. He is a higher rank (I have on idea what the difference is). Anyway, I am really worried about this. It is just something that he is thinking about right now, but we have 2 kids and it scares me to death!!! Any advice or anyone with experience with this?
Military time
I've done it both ways depending on what the client/doctor wants.
Our Military People
I want to share something my family does in case you're interested in doing something similar. We live near a military base and every year I call and get the names of a couple of soldiers to invite into our home for Christmas Day. These are soldiers who are very far from home and not scheduled for leave on Christmas. We been doing this for several years and it has been such a wonderful experience. We have made friends that we'll keep in contact with until ... 
We pick up these soldiers up at a set time and set gate on the base. They have dinner with us and we always give them some small gifts -- phone cards, note cards, stamps, restaurant gift certificates, etc. The guys love it when they get a box of all occasion cards with stamps, as most of them say they aren't very good at picking out cards to send back home. We end the evening by driving around showing them Christmas lights, etc.
Yes, it is generally a bit awkward for them at first, but they always end up getting "comfortable" and enjoying themselves.
You usually need to call early - they do have to make sure you aren't a serial killer or terrorist.  Often times, they have an office set up where you fill out a form for "adopting a soldier" and that simplifies matters a great deal.
Merry Christmas to all of you!
Don't know about transcribing for the Military, but...sm
your transcription skills will most certainly qualify you for an Administrative Assistant/secretary position for the Military. I started as a GS-4 in Aug 04. Got promoted to a GS-5 in Aug 05 and now am lead secretary in an office of 50 people. I get an automatic promotion to a GS-6 in Aug 06. On top of the all the benefits, they are going to pay for my degree too. I know a lot of people complain about Federal jobs, but mine has been a blessing all the way around.
Military wife
Yep, my husband has been in the AF for 29 years. He has been deployed since middle of March and will be coming home at end of May. I've been MT for 3 years, but all at one place. Wish I would've done it sooner, when we were moving around. He's retiring this summer.
Military Overseas
When companies state no overseas applications or solicitations does that include Overseas Military?? I have DSL and we have a US Post office here on base. Curious cause i'm about to start school and want to know it wont be wasted while we are stationed overseas.
Thanks!
I appreciate the military. I DONT appreciate

Transcribing for military hospital
I have a question, does anybody know of how to get into transcribing for say a military hospital so you could get government benefits, or has anybody does this before? Would love to have the safety net in retirement of some good government benefits.
Are your military members fighting for your

Your child JOINED military. Did she do so with
Sounds like apple doesnt fall far from tree if she made life changing move with no forethought. You say this is 2nd tour. To me that that means she and her hubby signed up for second time so its not like this was sprung on all of you. You need to learn to look ahead and plan better. And I dont mean plan on better ways to rob your fellow citizens.
when typing military time, is it, for ex: 1645 or 16:45 nm
Military time would be 1645 hours.

a lotta of the older docs were in the military...sm
and these were memorized by rote...kinda like the ABCs. Extraordinarily bright men and women who'd served their country and then went on to be docs.
It's always nice to hear them say "Thank you for transcribing this dictation",  Cat
Her child was not drafted, JOINED military. Do

I believe private MTSOs have to bid on contracts to do military work.

care package for military in iraq ideas?? sm
i have a very close friend who is in iraq and i went to send something but no idea what? he ideas or someone know anyone in military and what they like to receive or need? FYI, they are on a ship. TYIA!
Sounds like a wartime military POW personnel training manual..nm
I live in a small rural area and they housed some evacuees at a nearby military base
crime went UP in our little community that previously HAD a ~very low~ crime rate. It is a FACT. I'm not saying all NO residents are like that, but MANY seem to be.
My mom was raised in conditions like this poster describes. Mom's parents died when she was 7 (father) and 9 (mother). Her teenage sister (newlywed) raised her and 4 other siblings. They had next to nothing. Not ONE of them turned to a life of crime. Not ONE even graduated high school but they still made good lives for themselves. Life was rough for them, but they didn't blame it on everyone else and cry around about what the president should be doing for them. It is all about RESPONSIBILITY and taking what life throws your way. IMO.
ALSO wondering
I was just noting recently the whole ASR idea was not working as they originally planned, ALL ASR goes back through the same system from all accounts, and I have been noticing that some "learning" has changed, i.e., it will "learn" what a dictator says, then after going back through the system a couple times it "unlearns" and goes back to being wrong......... maybe they are figuring out it is not advance as well as planned ???
I'm also wondering...sm
if a Dictaphone can be used in place of a C-phone. Does anyone know? Thanks!
Just wondering
Anyone ever get a little b----y with tech support and get talked to by your boss about it? Tonight I was having nothing but computer problems plus trying to meet a deadline. This tech support guy was a real winner (not). He just flat out could not help me, plus I could hear a vacuum running in the background. I didn't yell or anything but I was quite frustrated and sarcastic. It's late at night and I'm PMSing!!! Do they ever "tell" your supervisor when that happens? 
Wondering...sm
Wonder if you would elaborate a little about why Proscript is a great company. I keep a notebook and I like to jot down what is good or bad about the company. Thanks!

What happened to his 4th leg?
To Wondering
Like I said, there's always someone out there with a wise answer...Not Naughty,naughty, and no, it's not my OPINION. It's a fact. Polite is polite, rude is hurtful.and nasty. If you don't feel like re-answering questions, be polite and pass them onto someplace where they can get the answers OR don't answer at all.

i worked for a company that wanted the equipment back before i would get my last check. not smart. had to fight for it. just curious where is the company located?
Just wondering, if you used your
phone line for work, such as C phone, would that give them the right to listen in on your phone calls or look at your phone bill? What if they reumburse you for the extra phone line? Does that give them the right to listen to your phone calls on that line?
Just wondering?
What do you think the hardest account is to type for?
Just wanted to see if it all ended up being the same..
I know several MTs with MS and I'm wondering if I have
some element of it, too.
Wondering about your
If you don't mind sharing, what is your skin care regimen like?
I am only asking because my husband and I have been going round and round about the fact that I buy Oil of Olay Total Effects and the Total Effects eye gel, plus the night cream. He thinks I'm crazy, that they don't work. I say why take the chance that they DO work and miss out on the benefits.
I'm going on 37, but think I look pretty good for my age. Just wondering if anyone else buys into these notions that these products can help us *age gracefully*. I don't want to look like I'm in my 20s cause I'm not...I have a son who's almost 19...so I'm proud of my age, just don't necessarily want to look quite as old as I am....thanks and have a wonderful day! 
Thank you. I was wondering how this could be done. nm

I'm wondering...
if this onslaught of deaths of original characters is leading up to the end of the show? Has anyone heard if this is the last season?
What I was wondering
is staying in the LA area with all of the nerve gas floating around? Maybe that just adds to everything. I like the place they are living in too.
Wondering
I read in your post that you "don't agree with people who use it [abortion] as a form of birth control." I was wondering why. Is it because you feel that one abortion is OK, but more than one will make it wrong, and if so, why was the first one not wrong?
Or, is it because abortion is too expensive and just too much on the woman's body to use as a form of birth control? I don't understand your comment and wish you could explain how you arrived at that. Thank you very much.

Just wondering if anyone has gotton a job without having to take a medical transcription course?
Yes, I was wondering and
I hope you get what you pay for, Service. I hate to see folks like you bragging about getting applicants to do work for nothing. This makes me sick.
What comes around goes around. I hope you enjoy your status at this time, because things like this surely come back to haunt you.
Excuse me while I go BARF!
i was wondering the same, and
was told 'no'. So, what i did (had to start w/new computer) is open notepad and minimize it. Then bring up my favorites. One by one i'd click on a favorite. Then i'd copy and paste from the address bar onto notepad. It actually went real quick. Then it printed out the notepad info and as i needed these sites on the new computer, just typed the addresses in my address bar and re-added to favorites. That's the best way i found to transfer the info.
was wondering who would ask :}~
Yes, I typed the banner advertisement exactly as they had it. I wondered if someone would try to pin that one on me lol!
BTW, did you watch it? It had the person who went to India feeling very enlightened for the Indians and happy for the new opportunies they have, and more grateful for his own "wealth", including the loss of his job. hmmm...but of course, he stated how they were brain washed in order to do the call center jobs...
