But I have sent out quite a few resumes to companies that need ortho MTs and nobody has responded. I have about 10 years' experience in podiatry. Isn't that more or less the same temonology? Thanks

Not JMO, just an observation.
The one who asked for details originally signed the post sm. I'm not taking sides in the fairness thing, but by the time JMO said he/she would give details in email, it was already obvious that details weren't going to make some people happy anyway.
astute observation.
And me thinks you see correctly. What fields would use MT's skill set to the greatest advantage? Any opinions out there on that?
I love MT and if it peters out I'll be one sad camper, but life does that sort of thing now and then.... However, there must be some other sphere's where MT experience would give a bit of an edge on the market. What do the rest of you think? 
That's a good observation, I will pass it on.
I have been there for several years and have no difficulties. I am very surprised at these posts, as the people that I work with are very happy. You bring up a point that it may be the new hires that are upset, and I don't blame them if they have no work. I am going to pass this on and try to make this better. They are a good company, maybe they are just growing too fast.
jJust an observation/vent
Maybe its me but I work and when I am downloading, I read the various boards -- I see/read people that the productivity is there 250-300 lines an hour or more but what I am wondering about is bottom line -- patient care -- no, we are NOT doctors but how many MTs know how to really research the internet for drugs etc? I see posts with word expanders -- they are WONDERFUL tools, but in MHO, if you are a newbie, just starting out, get the disks, the books, and LEARN how to use the internet -- I did QA for a company for a while, and I had a Transcriptionist (newbie) call me in tears because she was called on the carpet for typing (and I saw the actual report) -- Kem-7 -- come on, everyone, You should be researching and looking -- yes, it IS hard, but I see a lot of the SAME names on this board, spending hours, gabbing and chatting and yet whine when they are not making a decent salary -- bottom line, I am a single, widowed woman, been in this business for a long time and yes, I have my throw in the towel momemts but I also have a work ethic that is pull one's self up by the boot straps -- yes, we have to vent about our men who are the southbound end of a northbound horse, but people do not realize that even though we work at home, we are working, spending hours sometimes taking care of the home front with bills etc and not getting paid for it -- Its not the companies, its trying to plan things and go from there -- If you're married, hubby has to understand that this is NOT a hobby job, as do a few of you that I have seen a lot on this board -- you do this and that , but yet you are the whiners and complainers when it comes to companies treating you unfairly or no work.
Maybe Wal-Mart for those of you IS A BETTER alternative -- for me I make between 40-50K a year, but I am focused on my job as well -- blood, sweat and tears too.
