I have treated my "help"  or subcontractors very well.  I more than bend over backwards to be flexible with their schedules and so on.  But I have been burned several times by them as they feel that the are the "help" and I am the owner so it is my problem as the business is mine.   And that is right, it is my name out there, I get the business and if things go down it is my business goes down.  But again, I cannot control how much the accounts dictate.   I only take 2-3 cents cpl for me which covers me picking up, printing and delivering tapes, invoicing, QA and so on.  But in this day and age I cannot charge the docs 15 cpl so I can pay someone 11 cpl.  I pay my gals 8.5 to 9 cpl per gross line and charge 11 to 11.5 to the docs.   But I am tougher than I used to be and if you commit to doing a job you better do it.   But again I cannot control the the amount that comes in that is completely out of my control and so there will be slow days and there will be heavier days.  But also cannot bring on more than we can do either as if we don't produce we will lose the account anyway and again it is my business name that is on the line not my "help".    I have been on both sides of this business and until you walk in the shoes of the owner, don't speculate that they have any control over the volume of work that comes in as we don't.    And just as many times our computer might go down, how often have I been called to say -- "I will be late with the work as I just lost everything" or "My computer just crashed".

I tell you I thought I died and went to Heaven when William Hung sung that song, Shake your bon bon!  

Ricky Martin, MOVE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!

Rescue yourself.

I just did it.  It takes an immense amount of energy when you don''t have any from the abuse.  You have to sell whatever you can, go to Catholic Charities, Salvation Army, whoever/whatever will listen to you and GET OUT.

I just did it.  It was not easy and I had to dump all my pride.  But the fact is, I did it and now I can sleep at night and there is peace.

You just start begging family, friends, churches, to help you.  It is worth it.  The result is that you and your babies have peace.

You will prolly have to go to court, and that is scary, but remember, dig in.  You are fighting for your kids's peace of mind.  It is worth every effort that you make..You will be told no more times than yes, but you will be told yes enough to make it out.

Pray. Ask.  Wait for the break that you need...and take it.

GOD SPEED.

Had one in the neighborhood as a kid that liked to "play baseball" with us. This was pre-leash laws. Darn thing would catch the ball every single time we hit it and we'd have to draw straws for the duty of sticking our hand in the St. B's mouth to retrieve what was left of the slimy ball. What a great dog he was though.

take her to a shelter.   The rescue is a good idea because I'm sure they would have the heart that I want her new owner to have.   A local station does have a TV spot weekly, but only from the various shelters.

I just wasn't sure what a reasonable time to keep her before I found her a new home.  

Funny thing is, I just put chili together for tomorrow. Dumped it in the crock pot. put the crock in the fridge and will do a slow cook thing tomorrow. Yummy.  Must be cold and rainy where you live too.  All I could thing of was chili, baked beans or a big pot of hot soup. :)

Tonight we had baked pork chops and oven baked red potato chunks. Very, very yummy and very, very easy.  Here's what you do:

Dice up potatoes (with skins on) and layer them in a 13 x 9 baking dish. Add 1/3 cup cooking oil and 1 package of Lipton (or store brand) dry onion soup mix and stir it up. Then mix the other package of onion soup mix with bread crumbs, rinse off the pork chops, and roll them in the mix and throw them in a baking dish as well.  Put both in the oven at 350 degrees.  Potatoes usually take 35 minutes. Pork chops depend on the thickness. WICKED GOOD!

value to your books that have the misprinted cover, with your name spelled incorrectly? 

Look what I found:

Things not to buy -  When my son was born, we got 40-something blankets, 30-something burp cloths, and way too many 0-3 month outfits.  While I was extremely grateful for all the gifts, I had to spend a lot of time exchanging the multiples.  Amazingly, we had to exchange a lot of diapers, too, because the cheaper ones don't always work as well on little boys. 

Things I loved were anything homemade, personalized, etc.  Also, outfits, socks, and onesies in bigger sizes, 3-6 months and 6-9 months, were a lifesaver and money saver as he got bigger, which seemed to happen overnight.  You can never go wrong with wipes, shampoo, and other essentials.  My son is 1-1/2, and I have yet to buy any shampoo or lotion for him.

is involved with them and fostered labs before she got another dog of her own.  They will provide the dog with medical care and a loving home while they try to find a good home for the dog. 

Thank you for being so diligent caring for this dog.  You sound like a terrific person.  Labs are such wanderers.  Hopefully someone will claim the doggie soon.  Good luck!!
