How do you apply at this company?
Cool! My DS has a BS in criminal justice and my DH is an attorney!

After I went to a 1-year MT course at a vocational school, it was so bad that I did the 2-year colle
Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
I was taught two spaces in high school typing class
places want only one space. BOS (pg 66, 2nd Ed) says either/or but be consistent, and that it is usually is set by company/client, but I've definitely noticed that most MTSOs want only one space and that's how I always do it now.
year-round school! nm

I went back to school this year
In my area both the RN-AD and dental hyg. programs have wait lists, however the dental hyg. wait is like 4 years versus the RN wait being 1-1/2 years. I am just finishing up all my gen eds and I should be off the wait list and into the core program next fall. I am taking extra psych classes to fill my "elective" courses as I was told that hospitals prefer nurses with their BSN to have psych minors, and I'm only in the AD program (associate degree), but I can still list extra psych courses on my resume. I wish you the very best of luck!!!
Geez. Where do the ppl live with the all year school. SM
Also the person who stated her kids went back to school two weeks ago. In july???? Geez, I thought August 30th was early. What schools go back in JUly and what ones are all year?
POLL: Home School vs. Charter School vs. Public School vs. Priv ate School...
Pros and cons of each too. I have two little ones that will be starting school soon and I would like opinions on all. Thanks in advance! :)
I go through this every year when the school district starts hiring.
And I have cabin fever really, really bad from being home with the kids almost 24/7. Plus, I don't get much adult interaction in the summer because all of my friends are busy with their own families, vacations, work, etc. We don't get together as often as during the school year.
The work part of it is OK. I have good accounts, but it can be boring or frustrating with interruptions. Like the other poster, I have to play music in the background and buckle down to be productive. However, there is something to be said for the flexibility that I have in working at home. I'm here for the kids. I can take a break whenever I want to. I don't have to get dressed up or drive anywhere. No office politics. No supervisor screaming at me. No out-of-town travel. I have my own office now. I have total control over the thermostat. I can eat whatever I want to whenever I want to. I'm saving money by not using daycare. I make as much or more working part-time than if I worked fulltime, paid daycare, and had to drive to and from a job. Best of all, I have time during the day to exercise, clean the house, or do my hobbies. I'm not so exhausted by the end of the day that I just slap food on the table and veg out in front of the TV. I don't watch TV at all any more! For me, the benefits are still good enough to keep doing this for at least a few more years. I can always go back into the workforce when the kids are older.
oh my production is cut in HALF!! wish we had year round school. nm

I'm 46 and I went back to school this year full time for a BSN...sm
I was worried about because, let's face it, my short term memory isn't what it used to be LOL. Plus the program is ONLY full time. They had 1000 applicants and picked the top 70 of us. If you didn't have a 3.5 GPA, you didn't get in. But I am doing really well in school - after I got past the shock of the first 6 weeks - tons of work- and I am at the top of my class. My husband, bless his heart, is doing all the cooking and we are basically kind of ignoring the dirt. My house will be clean again another day. I am finishing up my second semester, have 3 more semesters for a BSN, and then another 2.5 years to get my masters and be an advanced practice nurse. 41 is definitely not too old! You will have to work smart to save your back but it can be done. Also MT is starting a slow slide out...you would be smart to start your second career now while you still have a job... IMHO
good luck!
No - fourth year resident, still in medical school - no MD degree yet. nm

Don't you love it when justice prevails?
I am not socially savvy either as many MTs are not. But, being social savvy or, in some cases, being boss can get move people to high places until something like this occurs.
They are trying to keep it from the director it appears. But if the CEO of the hospital gets wind of it and approaches the director of radiology, and he doesn't know about it, heads will roll, possibly the directors.
Katrina criminal..
Sorry, I don't see your logic here. So, if 1 in 4 was a Katrina evacuee, that means 3 of the 4 were your homegrown criminals - right?
Criminal History?
Can a person with a criminal history, felonies within the last 7 years, still work as an MT?

Hi Becka ,
I'm sorry to hear about your difficulties. It sounds like this Robin person (I don't know anything about her other than what I have seen you post here) if these claims are true (I have no reason to doubt they are) is committing theft and fraud. Contacting the Labor Board (federal and state) suggestion is a good idead , but if she is doing this across state lines (that is she is in one state and conducting business with people residing in other states) she is subject to criminal prosectuion by the federal government. I would suggest you go to the U.S. Attorney's office nearest you and see about filing a federal criminal complaint against here. Of course , you also have an avenue for recovery of wages owed you by here through the state / federal district courts , as well.
It's putting criminal data into the computer and
no ESLs to listen to!
Gee, thanks for calling me a dumb trashy criminal when you don't
 I'm sure all the men and women with tattoos who are serving our country would appreciate your comment also.
pay for extensive criminal background check
Criminal background checks just verify that you are who you are for the most part. I do them for
a company and believe me, it is only checking that your SSN is yours. It is not a credit check or anything else. If you don't like it, don't work for a company that does it. I did it and I don't care. I have nothing to hide. You have to give the companies your SSN anyhow if you work for them, so to me there is no big deal. You might miss out on a good company by not doing them though.
Try peoplefinders.com For a small fee you can search criminal records.

to the transcriptionists who felt that a criminal background check was a violation - sm
you will notice that some of the jobs posted on the job seeker's board require a CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK!!! What do you think of that? Still think it's a violation of your privacy?
you don't go shooting off your mouth calling citizens corrupt and criminal in a country you are visi
and you felt was okay to send you daughter to go to so she could drink at the age of 18. NO ONE WITH COMMON SENSE WOULD OFFEND THOSE SHE WAS EXPECTING HELP FROM. Mrs. Twitty has clean lost her mind if there ever was one there in the first place - considering she sent her daughter to Aruba at the age of 18.
I did that with 2 kids with time mgmt and a high school girl who babysat 3 days a week after school

Typing. This is NOT typing, it is transcribing. There is a BIG difference. sm
Transcription includes typing, but so much more.
The cost of running a private school or any school is expensive....
Why do you think public schools are so run down and can't find good teachers? Because the government and people to not put forth the effort or $$$$ to improve the educational system.
The School of Hard Knocks is the best MT school

Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc. Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.
to cowgirl - Last I knew, last year the job paid $25,000/year no taxes, etc.
The hospital was bombed about a year ago, but not a lot of damage, very minimal damage.

nope, still crunching last few days of year to hit my 50k this year. how can you when you haven'

Nothing this year. We ALWAYS got a cool surprise in the past, but this year nothing. :-( nm

I think he makes $700,000.00 a year, and if they ask him to walk before his first year MQ has...sm
to pay him a cool 1 million dollars. You can check this out at the Medquist website. I think the CFO makes $350,000 a year, and the head of IT makes $250.000 a year.
P.S. This does not include the perks, like expense account, car allowance, sign-on bonus, etc.
Our 16 year old son has been working for a year now to pay for his truck.
He's learning how to sand and do body work and how the engine and transmission go together. My parents didn't buy cars for my siblings and I either. I had a 20+ year old beater car until I could afford to move up to a a newer one.
I see all the nice new cars parked in the high school parking lot every day. It's nice that so many disrespectful punk kids get handed something nicer to drive than what all the teachers drive. Oh, well. Honestly, I think most of them borrow Mommy or Daddy's car or are the child of a doctor who can afford to hand them everything.
Hopefully, my kids will take better care of their cars because they bought and built them on their own. You're not going to grow up to be responsible if you don't work hard for something and expect Mommy and Daddy to bail you out all the time.
Oh, my Dad lectured us on even allowing our child to have a vehicle because Dad didn't have one until after he had worked his way through college, lettered on the football team, got straight As, lettered on the baseball team, yadda yadda. He either walked or hitched a ride. Yeah, well, times were different back then, Daddy-O. LOL At least my kid has the opportunity to work and earn his own car.
IC - 30 hours week, $98K last year. So far this year - 28K. sm
Individual IC - own account(s).
Not me, owed last year, and expect to owe this year- sm
or break even, had more expenses this year. Only owed $200 but still don't want to owe at all. Need to start doing estimated tax payments again so I don't owe! Guess I will get off my butt and do that this year.
come on.. you cannot compare a 2-year-old and a 15-year-old

46/F I have a 9-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy.

Got $$$$ back last year but this year
I have to pay them, sold a property I never lived in but I had enough sense to set aside $45,000 so just waiting on them to send me my WT2s so I can get started.
We met in high school. My high school sweetheart
introduced us in a discussion over Ford versus Chevy versus Dodge. I used to race my Dodge Coronet with oldstyle 318 V-8 engine against the guys on the back roads and old highways. High school boyfriend had a Chevy truck. DH had a Ford Fairlane and later an AMC Javelin that just made me swoon. We didn't actually start dating until three years later, and my old high school boyfriend was a bit surprised at that since he introduced us.
OMG...yep! Air typing!!! it's like
don't even think of typing before you get

80+ and still typing.
A great woman crossed into the arm's of God this morning. She was 80+ years of age and still doing medical transcription up to the day earlier this year when she was diagnosed with cancer and even then she came to the office just until recently. She loved her job and everyone loved her. She will be greatly missed in the world of transcription as well as among family and friends.
Until we meet again.
80 and still typing
did she live in NJ?
When I had typing in H.S. (sm)
we had those little pieces of chalky paper that you would have to slip down behind that little "thing" on the platin, and type on that. Can't even remember what it was called it was so long ago. Boy, were we thrilled when white out, yellow out, and pink out came along. LOL
Will you be actually typing them?
If you are then they are ripping you off. I for one refuse to work unless I get paid for everything I type. It all adds up over time!
Typing Fun
Hee, I do that all the time. I like to see how fast I can make them speak and still type along.
