What about those of us in the Northeast? sm
We supposedly have the highest expenses (I think we edged out California even). The mere threat of a Nor'easter caused the Euro community to up the price of a barrel of oil as the Northeast has the highest fuel usage in the world (I was shocked at that one myself). No one seems to have any sympathy for us. Now, we are threatened with rolling energy blackouts this winter in the Northeast. Nobody gives us monetary assistance.

Why should anyone give you anything? Did you not choose to live where you live?

Anyone here work for Northeast Transcription?
No, my accounts are in the Northeast
area. The people in Amherst have no brains apparently. If any of the accounts were out of TAT they hired more people to keep the accounts in TAT, but their idea of TAT is 1 hour which is utterly ridiculous. I think because all of the kids are back in school every one is typing at the same time. I don't know what they are going to do about it.

Here in Upstate NY it's been coming down since the morning. We're supposed to get about 7-8 inches when it's all over. We did have a little bit of freezing rain this morning and we've had a lot of local accidents because of the roads.
Not a bit, especially here in the northeast. Heat is a way of life. nm

Anyone else in Northeast have internet woes?
All weekend the connectivity has been absolutely awful. I have Time-Warner Cable (formerly Adelphia). Anyone else having problems or is it just because I had a mental meltdown Friday and this is a sick form of retribution from the gods?

I'm from Northeast Indiana and have Comcast. I have few problems SM
with Comcast being down, but when I do I usually unplug everything from the modem and wait a few seconds, plug it back in and I'm good to go.

It varies by county in NC
I live in Randolph County, NC and the high school kids here can miss no more than 10 days of school per year before they have to start making up time. The elementary kids can miss 20. If this kid has missed that much school, the school should be contacting social services or someone to get involved. In NC parents can be held responsible and even be put in jail for their children not attending school like they are supposed to. It is truancy and it is illegal.
I'm in Cobb County. We were originally....sm
supposed to have started Monday but so many parents beat up on the school board that they delayed it a "whopping" 2 days.
At least our school board didn't get by with spending the $100 million on laptops for students! It's a shame it took a judge to block them and put an end to that nonsense. Speaking of which, I would expect that Apple will be having a huge sale on laptops soon since they've been blocked from selling the 63,000 laptops to the school system!

Westchester County work
Joanne,
Yorktown isn't that far away from you and if you don't mind being an independent contractor, Phoenix is a good place. Nice people who will treat you right. They pay high line rates for well experienced people on an internet platform. They have a lot of hospitals from Orange County down throughout MH and into Conn too. You can earn enough as an IC to afford your own health insurance. There are also a couple of other companies on the West bank of the Hudson where you could work from home with hospitals on both sides of the river.
email me if you like.

County mental health
If she is on state or county aid she might find something available. But I am not being mean but how can you expect to receive "free services" - would you do your work for free? Again, unless she is on welfare or something like that or perhaps through your church you might find some help but even then you usually have to pay on a sliding scale and don't get it completely "free". If she is suicidal or there is a chance she will do harm to self or kids, she can go to ER and they will set her up with something but again it would only be so many visits. Does she work? Does her husband work? Do they have medical benefits? Again, don't mean to sound mean or cruel but not much in this life is free as if everyone gave it away "free" how would they pay their bills. But look through your county/state directory or go to your church and see if they can help.
If you know the county that he was divorced in, do a google search
for that county's public records website. Where I live, I can access the county's public records via web and lookup by last name and first name and these are free searches as they are public records. If he had any prior record of domestic violence, it will show up there.

county vet versus in-town vet. . . I have noticed(sm)
the change over the years since our vet's practice has grown tremendously. About 20 years ago when they first opened up they had one small converted farmhouse and three doctors. We live on the suburbs of a small city. When this vet came into practice there were a bunch of vets in town but everyone seemed to flock to my vets because they were good, inexpensive, really cared, and not pushy about extra services. HOWEVER, in the last year or two they've built a HUGE new building (basically a small surgicenter), added tons of support staff (at least four gals behind the counter checking people in and out versus one), each doctor has his own "assistant" that comes into the room with him now, there are computers in every exam room, the waiting room is the size of a small hospital lobby, etc., etc. The minute the building was finished I noticed that prices on basic services (shots, special food, exams) went up. Then came the push for the "extra" services (blood work, teeth cleaning, etc.) I only call these services "extra" because before the new building and huge practice the only time anything extra was mentioned was when I had to take in a sick animal and then it wasn't "extra" it was necessary. Now it seems they're pushing a lot of baseline things that they want us to "think about having done" even though the animals aren't sick.

Great to have a computer spouse handy when system crashes!
In our county, 10 days lands you in court sm
excused or unexcused. They found the schools were failing NCLB criteria mostly on attendance. Now you have to show a judge the reason your child was absent (hospital records, etc...). Above a certain age, it is a truancy issue that the student is held responsible for. Below a certain age, the parent gets in trouble.
They put out a very wide net in order to catch the people who simply don't feel like taking their kids to school on certain days and the families with joint custody who simply yank the kids back and forth between different schools. Unfortunately, many people who have valid reasons for the absences are having to go prove themselves in court.

Anyone out there live in Habersham County, Georgia ? sm
If so I'd like to e-mail with you about the area as we're considering moving to that area. Thanks!
Sorry, this absolutely depends on the county you live in. Going through
She was just told they won't even look at expunging her felony drug conviction until she has a clean record for 10 years. In the meantime, she has had to fess up in a couple of interviews and hope for compassion. She finally got a job she lives but she's always afraid what will happen if she loses it.

Line rates in the Northeast - can anyone advise as to what the going rates are in the NE part of the
country? Specifically Connecticut. I want to make sure I am on target here. Thanks.
Yes, see inside
Go to Google and type in Career Step and Andrews School. These are the two best. Most companies will hire grads from these schools right out of training. Good luck to you!

I was hired by MQ to work at home. It took four months for me to complete the program. I passed MQ's test and was hired as a regular employee, not a trainee or intern. They were confident I could do the job based on my test scores and previous nonmedical work experience.
Do they have both? (see inside)
I'm an SE with them. Yep, I have a schedule but it's compacted into 3 days. I'm allowed to work all I want past my line requirement. Usually, I do get on at the end of the payperiod to see what extra dollars I can get on my check. I was encouraged to do that.
My prod sup said that they especially have so many people who won't pull their schedules and won't cover weekends that she'd never deny me work.
Didn't know they had ICs as well. Thought SEs like me were the only ICs MQ had.
