Anyone who has just finished school
would be more apt to pass the CMT test.  However, to say that would eliminate "toilet errors" is not the way I see it.  Someone with a lot of years experience in this field is just as good as a CMT if not better.  Passing a test and putting initials after your name means nothing when it comes to work ethic, discipline, and experience.  I just think if you have 9 years of experience, you are going to be just as attractive as someone with a CMT.  It seems to me companies or physicians seek well-rounded MTs that have experience in quite a few specialties as opposed to having CMT after your name.  I am not so sure physicians are aware of this testing process, but the Nationals seem to have bitten on it, but I'm not so sure it gets you any more money.  I've read posts where it does not gain you anything more than something else to put on the resume.  If you want to become more attractive, then I'd say branch out into more specialties or may be even take a business course to expand your knowledge.  CMT, in my opinion, is a waste of money especially when you have verbatim accounts and the client is always right, no matter what "the books" or for that matter AAMT has to say about the way it should be done.  Just another opinion. 
I have never finished a beverage to the end of it.

Finished- burp.......................

I just finished a book by
Mary Kay Andrews entitled Savannah Breeze. Great book! The next one I will read is Savannah Blues (same author).
No I haven't finished it yet, but I will ...sm
post my thoughts when I do.
I read it...UGH. I only finished it
because I felt I had to in order to maybe reap some benefit from it and form my own opinion. It didn't do a thing for me at all, can't understand all the glowing reviews and accolades. It really was a chore to get through, IMHO.
Just finished my shift...sm
Hi SAM!  It felt like such a loooong shift with all the tough dictators.  But that is behind me now.  Weatherwise, we hit 70 degrees once so far, now back down to the low 50s.  I love how the days are getting longer.    Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Getting new hardwood floors. They are going to put down pre-finished. (sm)

I haven't picked out style and colors yet.  I know I don't want really dark or really light, but there are sure a lot of variations in between.  Different size planks too.  Anyone had good/bad experiences with the prefinished ones? 


I just finished it last night after I got done work - sm
stayed up until 2 reading. I figured out some of it before it was revealed in the book. I loved it too. I know everyone is happy here that I am done, I would not let anyone near the book because they kept threatening to read the last chapter and spoil it for me.
Hey, I just finished making him tostada
a while ago, Slim in bed snoring away, I have the house all to myself, he came in after a long hard day at his new job....Couldn't let the boy go hungry now could I. He shared his cheese and wine with me, then the gang came in, drat!! He is a real cool guy. His wife will be arriving from Brazil in two weeks. He hopes to have their apartment set up by then, not too far down the road from us....
I'm SO finished with the stock market! As soon as my
I'd rather have a little money that I know I can keep, than tons of *fake*, on-paper money that I could lose the next time some a$$hole decides to fly a jet into a building.
Nope, I'm FINISHED! Even back when - sm
I was making a little money in the market, what little profit I made was taxed much more heavily than my regular job money. Not to mention all the extr forms and headache at tax-time, as well. Not worth it for the 'little guy', even when the market IS going up. But after all the dishonesty and stock-tweeking that's been unearthed and brought to light in the past year or two, I'm through with it. I'd rather have less cash-money that I know I can keep, than lots of 'funny-money' that only exits on paper, and can disappear at a moment's notice. I'm not wasting any more of my hard-earned money to make a bunch of crooks rich.
Just finished Harry Potter - no spoilers
I would never ruin it for anyone.  Just wanted to say - What a ride!  It was an excellent book!  Sorry it's all over.
yippee, whoohoo -- just finished my taxes!!!
talk about procrastination...dang!  down to the last minute, i'm still trying to gather up last year's paperwork.  then, about had a panic attack as i was finishing up, wondering, what if i get audited?  just glad it's done, i think.
I finished Harry Potter! Never fear - no spoiler.
Wow - what a great book & series. Brilliant! As Ron would say.
I just finished her book, "We're just like you, only prettier." sm
Some easy reading, funny stuff.

Right now I'm reading Ann Rule's "Worth More Dead." She is a great writer, but I need to read light things once in awhile to cleanse the palate, so to speak.
