  5. Unpaid Mandatory Meetings?

    Of course this could also be said of many places in the Midwest as well. Such a shame we can't come together and demand better for ourselves. Hey, if I'd won the lottery last week, I could have...

    Warning: Sappy moment ahead. Some people mentioned how they don't think they are attractive for whatever reason (and yes, I have pretty crappy self-esteem when it comes to my own looks, too) but I...

    Hello! You're right - these people are awesome. I'm not a school nurse; I think I might be a groupie,

    I will say I rather like having the nitrous oxide during dental procedures as it helps keep me calm, but I don't think I would care to feel that way just for the heck of
