My sister & her husband have the same birthdate (five years apart, but the same month and day). So when they got married, they married on their shared birthday, thus ensuring that neither of them would ever be able to accidentally forget their anniversary!

In my experience, it's pretty standard for there to be an additional bill from the doctor for reading & interpreting test results. There have been several times when I've gotten a bill from a doctor who didn't even see me, because he was the one who read a test result. Yes, it seems like maybe...

People sure love to throw around the term "wrongful termination" without knowing what it actually means. You'd think in this day & age, when pretty much everybody has access to a computer, tablet, or smartphone, that more people would go online and look up the definition online instead of just...

As a benefits administrator I've seen several people who have waived their right to any of the proceeds of their spouse's retirement plan in a divorce, but since that usually isn't the case, I think we are all so used to people worrying more about looking out for their own interests (or being...

I agree, it was wrong of her to share the picture with others, but for crying out loud, why on earth would anybody ask a friend for an opinion of how they look in their underwear, much less send them a picture?! A regular outfit, maybe. But I don't think I've ever known anybody to seek a second...

If she can't afford to buy protein bars or bring her own lunch, I wonder what she eats when she's allowed to leave campus? She has to have someplace to get food, unless her friends take her out and treat her to lunch every day. And as for "practically letting her starve", well, that's just...

I've known people who have been in this same position, with an ex calling social services and/or the police numerous times trying to get their ex in trouble. They always seem to think that somehow they are being clever or original in trying to make trouble this way, but it's all too common. I...

Yes, we loved every minute of it, even though it wasn't the trip we'd originally planned. I like sitting in a car all day watching the world go by outside the window, but I don't drive so my husband has to do all the driving. He's been a professional truck driver for 30+ years and loves to...

That's so funny, when we drove through Winslow we both started singing that song! We didn't see that park, though. We ended up not doing all of Route 66, my husband had way overestimated his ability to drive for long hours the way he could when he was younger (news flash: there's a big...

Thanks for that link, cbg! I've never even heard of the Fred Harvey restaurant chain but we're definitely going to be looking for the Harvey House Railroad Depot as one of the spots to visit!

Oh, yeah, I've been humming that song ever since we made the decision to do this trip. My husband is a big Chuck Berry fan so I'll have to see if I can download his version of it for our road trip playlist!

Thanks for the info! We are going on a 3-week road trip starting next week and we've both always thought it would be fun to drive that route but neither of us ever has before. Until about a year ago, my sister lived in Amarillo so we are definitely going to look for all the fun stuff there. We...

So, has anybody here driven Route 66? If so, are there any "must see" highlights you can recommend?

I thought the OP's question had to do with UI, not WC.

Wow, your staff should consider themselves lucky that they only have to work half a day on Good Friday. Many of us don't get it off at all. (Except for me, this year, since I'll be on vacation for the month of April!)

I can attest to that as well.

I agree with the others who say it's not a good idea to put it in your name. I never learned to drive so I've never had a driver's license, but I've taken out financing for and owned solely or co-owned with my husband every vehicle we've ever had. So even though your mom doesn't drive, there's...

Yes, sadly, civility has declined over the years. My parents didn't really teach us much beyond the usual "please and thank you" but I've learned myself over time to be very polite in most situations. I guess I've always believed the old adage about catching more flies with honey than with...

I know it will probably irritate the heck out of her that I'm not responding, so I've kind of been chuckling about that to myself. I can picture her throwing a complete tantrum because I won't rise to the bait. Her e-mail to me was interesting, when I said it reminded me of things I see from...

So I received an email from the former employee I referenced in my post above. I spent half the day the other day writing a very detailed e-mail, outlining what, where, when and how she was paid. I didn't have to send her all the information I did, but I did it to try and help her understand her...
