retrain him using "special treats"

You should try to retrain him to go outside using "special treats" such as hotdogs or cheese (not reg dry treats)


As soon as you see him hike up his leg, tell him "No" and immediately pick him up and bring him outside. Once he goes outside, praise him & give him a treat. Eventually he will learn that he is not supposed to go on the furniture & he will be rewarded for going outside.


Another thing to do is to buy a pet-odor-eliminating spray that you can find at any pet store. Spray it on all of the "bad" areas that he has hiking his leg up on. As long as he smells his scent on those areas, he will be attracted to go there again so it is important to remove his scent/odor from those areas.

I wish I had your faith in the system.  Companies offshore because they want to hire a cheap labor force.  They will hire apprentices for the same reason.  If new MTs have to pass the RMT exam that the AAMT proposes, then enter into an apprenticeship program, companies are going to snap them up at low line rates. Where does that leave the rest of us?


Also, the AAMT does not represent the majority of MTs.  I saw no nationwide poll of MTs to ask their opinion about an apprenticeship program.  I didn't see it even for those who do belong (I read the AAMT board). 


The AAMT, in my opinion, is as much of a threat to MTs as offshoring.  The MT jobs are going overseas as it is.  Soon they will go to apprentices.  The AAMT works for the MTSOs, not for MTs.  We need to take political action to stop this insanity.


Will you be my Guest Blogger?

Hello!


Well, I've got the new transcription blog off the ground and right now I'm in the process of posting stories about how we all got into the world of MT, and also a few personal things too, to show that MTs are not just sitting behind the computer screen all day...


Would anyone here like to be a "guest blogger?" You can tell your story. Unfortunately, I can't compensate you other than having your voice heard and you can of course put links to your biz, your yahoo group, or anything near and dear to your heart. Please email me privately if interested. Thanks!


Please take a look at the other stories already posted!

A friend had one in their guest room. sm
I slept on it while staying at his house, and I felt more like it was just a "gimmick" - noticed no difference in how well I slept. It was fun to use the control remove, though.
Gonna tell guest, "Don't take your coats off."

LOL! I guess Neil Cavuto's guest

who debated this issue just last week on his show was full of sour grapes, as well. 


I've never seen a plumber or car mechanic or electrician collecting foods stamps.  I HAVE seen lawyers with their JD degrees turn red and spaz over the BILLS they receive from people in these professions, though.


Your comment was just ignorant.  Wake up.


way off topic wedding present question - is there proper etiquette on the amount a guest must (sm)
spend on the wedding present?   I have known people who hardly know the bride and groom yet spend $75 to $100 on a present.  Is this now the expected/correct amount to spend?  I was inclined to spend $25.  Am I being cheap?
Need ideas for vegetarian snacks for New Year's Eve. Having a guest over who is vegetarian.
