No one is really stable in this profession; they can outsource in a New York minute and never forget that!  Many people work in public places.  Go visit that hospital you work for and I bet you'll find loads of stuff sitting around with the patient names on there and also people flat out talking about the patient in this room or that room.  It's not fault proof.

Do you mean like critical, stable, poor?
Not sure what your question...I'm just thinking of all the conditions someone can be in.  If it were a family member, hearing "guarded" would make me very nervous.
Opan a large stable and board
horses, or become a doctor.
Not sure. I was told by the stable owner it was a fungus but my ferrier said it
was not.  Probably time for a vet.
Per diem is on an as needed basis - not a stable job. May work 1 day a month. nm

The way I see it. Competing with national rates. If stable acct, good dictators. Bid low, get job

My advice: Regroup. Find a small cave, cheap, take the kids, get a stable job (1), quit trying to

need to stabilize.


Medical transcription is not a "living" - it is a sideline anymore, unless you can find a doctors office or hospital where you can count on an income and count on medical insurance.


Leave the BF - they are dead weight.  They wear you out and rarely help you find any solid footing.  If your's did you wouldn't be here asking for advice.


I used to think I need to be married - then I began to ask myself:  WHY AM I MORE BROKE AND MORE TIRED WITH A HUSBAND?


There were more hours in the day and more money in the bank when I was on my own with my children.  We may not have had fancy things but we were happy because their mom was happy - ME.


Again, don't use 3 PT/transcription jobs or even 1 FT and some PTs to say you are making it.  Either bring your budget down to living on the 1 FT and let the PT be the discretionary income (extra for savings, emergencies, etc), or leave transcription entirely.  MTing is a losing proposition at this time.  Unless of course, like I say, you are in a stable place like a hospital.  And don't COUNT on the PT to carry you through - these nationals and side jobs are playing fast and loose with paying people or providing any security at all.


GOOD LUCK.
