Kewl, we've never looked at her foot like that so never noticed. That's the only "beauty spot" she has on her toes and I like to tickle that foot in particular, which she acts like it drives her up a wall, but it's funny she doesn't get up and walk away when I'm doing it.

The poodles that are popular with the puppy mills are toy poodles. Teddy is the next size up, a miniature poodle -- don't ask me why "miniature." I didn't chose the name. The third size is a standard.
Teddy came from a reputable breeder. One of my neighbors and close friends is a top-level dog show judge. She was Best-in-Show judge for the 2014 Westminster Kennel Club show. She likes the way Teddy walks. He has a show-dog gate. That and three bucks will get me a cup of coffee.

I rode a horse once. That was enough. I got all the signals wrong. The horse finally gave up and took me back to his barn, and waited for me to get off his back.
He and I had a little discussion, and we agreed that I would give him treats, and pet his nose -- and he would let me do that.

Her majesty has decided that I need "help" working (even though I am goofing off on here).
Lol, med. You were "working"? On a post from Cheryl?
That's why I wrote something about even though I was goofing off on here (i.e. DC). I couldn't take a picture of my actual work screen, it would be breaking Federal law.

I understand. I have to sign confidentiality and conflict if interest documents every year at my job. I mean, so I know who wins certain reality shows a little before they are broadcast, or I can't talk about how horrible some of our on air "talent" is.
The gubmint must be even worse.

HIPAA, right? I remember those, and I never even had contact with patients or their information.
HIPAA...Hooray!

When I was a legal secretary for three lawyers, one paralegal, it was never discussed. I guess I just understood from day one, that I was bound by the same rules of confidentiality as those who held a license. When I left, I left behind my notes in shorthand for them to destroy as they saw fit.
A couple of years later I got a call from a Federal Prosecutor if I would be willing to come in and transcribe my notes. "Sorry, no. Those notes are protected by the same Confidentiality Laws as their lawyer." I never heard from them again. So I have to guess I had it right from the very beginning.

Lots of things have changed since your day Addie. Things have changed greatly since I first started. It's now called "cover your heinie" in everything that you do. I didn't have to sign a confidentially/nondisclosure document until about 10 years ago and it only keeps getting worse each year.
It's my best testing subject...
I would never do this, but someone could sign such an agreement with a fictional name, and they wouldn't notice. I've heard that it has been done successfully, from a friend who knows a guy who's sister does it.

I wouldn't risk it. The penalty for knowingly violating the HIPAA law varies from a fine of several thousand dollars and a year in prison to over a million dollars and up to 10 years in prison. Stupid to do that to avoid an hour or so of watching videos and taking a simple test.
The sister of the guy my friend knows is not subject to HIPAA laws. She just gets asked to sign vague and stupid confidentiality/non-disclosure agreements from time to time.

That's what medtran was talking about and since you quoted her statement, well... I'm sure you can understand my confusion

I'm confused most of the time. That's normal, isn't it?
