Sumimasen Samurai, sorry about that! It depends on where you work, and I know for a fact places out there exist where excessive politicking won't get you far if you can't back it up. The fact that a lot of people are commenting with this clearly shows most of us out there are jaded thanks to workplaces that lean towards politickers.
Of Course there are many benefits paying your tax online but what I like most is that You can submit your payment at any time and from anywhere with an internet connection.
I am just getting started on reading other financial blogs and when I came across this post, I immediately knew I hit a gold mine. Thanks for the references, I will be sure to check them out.
Alan, wish I had thought of your suggestion. What a great idea!
Spaces, you are right - there was no way for us to measure BP, etc., from home. If his breathing had been odd, I'd have just called 911.
One other advantage of using this system was that my husband's EMR was in the system. I wonder now if the pauses in the chat were when the doc was actually doing a quick records review for allergies, etc.
Just ... Be careful. Data about respiration, blood pressure, pulse, etc. can be terribly important, and aren't the kind of items most people are equipped to assess on their own. And they can't be checked over the internet.
anything can be a liquid if the pressure and/or temperature is right. at normal temp and pressure, solid co2 (dry ice) will turn directly into gas, but if you are at a low enough temperature or high enough pressure, it will condense to a liquid.
Banks lose 40-50k foreclosing. The problem with the 'caring' is the bottom-line min wage representatives. If you get false info or bad service just call back. 888-995-HOPE is the single best solution for working with your mortgage lender by increasing education and communication by our special phone #'s to the lender. And yes, there is a possibility that you just don't qualify.
Are you separating the wart clean? You may need to let it settle more and pull off the clear part. If there is a lot of yeast in the mash still, it will carry some flavour. You could try a double fermentation. Start your first fermentation and run it for a few days with regular yeast. When it settles, add sugar and turbo yeast to kick up the level. Most of the flavour will be from the first yeast.
Clean the still, you could have residual mess it the column still.
I have some distillers yeast. Not a lot of flavour but gets high proof. I use it for making hard lemonade. Packs a kick.
For something that you buy over and over again (tomato paste, let's say, or breakfast cereal), it really pays to buy a small quantity of the cheapest you can find—so you can test if it's just as good as the more expensive stuff. Often it is.
Over a period of years, the cost difference can really add up. And, if your test sample doesn't provide the quality you want, you can buy the expensive stuff instead, for the few cases where it matters to you. (For example, I buy expensive toothpaste and facial tissue.)
Depending on when/how the 10 minute timer starts, you may be able to save a precious minute by doing some preparation. Right before you start the timer, take 60 seconds and type up your initial information and question in a text file/Word document/email/etc. Then, when the 10 minute timer and chat begins, copy and paste the pre-typed message into the chat.
What do you do when the target is not only relative to a baseline set of objectives your management sets for you, but, more significantly, how much you exceeded those objectives relative to how much everyone else performed against them? On my last performance review, I knew I hit a homerun against my objectives, but was told two things, 1. you didn't outdeliver these one or two people and 2. you can't expect the highest performance rating your first year in the role. To that, I say, yes I did and yes I can, but when you don't have complete visibility to exactly what everyone else is doing relative to a standard set of objectives, you can't pinpoint every one of your results relative to every one of everyone else's. They know you can't and then stack the deck against you come performance time. As well, it's not as though the bonus or raise would be worth it, MAYBE the equivalent of minimum wage for all the extra work, but it's the principle that makes my blood boil. I'd appreciate anyone's thoughts on this situation.
I've tried the turbo stuff, and, okay, it gives a much higher yield of alcohol and a much faster fermentation, but even after dumping the first part of each run to cut out the fusels, i've found it still leaves a distinct and slightly unpleasant aftertaste. Has anyone else found this?? I've been putting the grated peels of a few lemons in it (because the citrus oils evaporate around the same temperature as ethanol) and running it through again. And carbon-filtering it a few times. There must be an easier way of removing the "off" taste of turbo yeast?? I'm ending up with what tastes like lemon grappa every time here.
It would depend on how much the lottery was for. If it was for a couple million, I would pay off debts and keep working towards an early retirement. If it was worth over ten million, I would probably quit my job and start working to multiply that amount through investments, as well as give a lot to charity.
I would argue that on a per unit of effort basis, politics gets you farther than performance.
If you assume two average performers. One works on performing and the other works on schmoozing. The schmoozer will probably go farther faster.
Perhaps I'm just jaded, but that's what I see.
Forget about performing and then figuring out how to sell yourself. Figure out how to sell yourself, then figure out how you can perform better in a visible fashion. After all, the extra performance is probably useless unless you up those social skills.
i signed up for a certificate. only after all the payments are done and when i'm ready to print the certificate that they revealed that i have to make a $150 minimum purchase to be able to use the certificate!!! tried to talk to them, they said no way i can cancel out. tried paypal next and paypal said they can't do anything because it's already paid up.
Ahh, Keigu, you bring up a great point. Of course you can't just perform. You have to be able to leverage that, but I will disagree that politics can get you as far as performing can.
Absolutely, one must perform, but performance is only 50% of the equation.
If you don't sell yourself internally, you will only get so far. It is delusional to think that all you have to perform. There's a reason why so many people complain about politics.
If you're good at politics you'll go MUCH farther than one who isn't, but is a great performer.

If you don't play politics right, you'll always be average despite performance.

vga is absolutely correct. This is what I see in my workplace.
I've tried the turbo stuff, and, okay, it gives a much higher yield of alcohol and a much faster fermentation, but even after dumping the first part of each run to cut out the fusels, i've found it still leaves a distinct and slightly unpleasant aftertaste.

At least not in the long run!

I guess people 3-400 years ago died at 33, so maybe it's not too bad to get BOTOX at a certain age. But, when does it stop?
It's great you can still laugh! That's what I find sexiest about women, their smile.
