That averages out to 21 to 25 dollars an hour
for radiology. I earn more than that per hour on acute care, but I don't work that many hours a week. How do you keep your arms healthy?
Wal-Mart really pays $32/hour for greeters (sm)
to work in their grubbies? Who knew?
Madeleine, if you like words, enjoy puzzling things out, type fast, have good hearing and excellent internet research skills, and are willing to educate yourself in an entirely new career (and probably to learn far more about computers and software than you already know), then check out your local community college, take a medical terminology course, and see what you think.
I start an hour or 2 early and then take an hour or 2 for dinner -nm

Well, better start practicing your best "Welcome to Wal-Mart" (where our goods are made offsho

Even to start with, $14.00 an hour is lousy pay for ANY MT work...NM
?
To start expect to make about $6 an hour - sm
If you are good, meaning not having to look up a billion things and a quick and accurate typist then you can make more, $16+ depending on the type of work you do. I am not a fast typist, though I do not have to look up much (except for address which slows me WAAAAAAY down), and I currently make about $12 an hour with 4 years experience. So this is no huge money maker. As you are only looking to supplement, you could probably expect to make an extra $30 a week to start, presuming you can find someone to take you on for so litte work. In time you may get that up to $60 a week, but still it is not a fortune.
for the Lafayette area, you should be able to start around $12-13/hour depending
on the amount of expeience you have. But generally, Lafayette starts around $13/hour. Again, not a bad rate of pay to start for that area!!!
can you start out at $11.50/hour at a fast food place?

Zero. If I don't have the dollars, I don't buy it.
House paid off. Drive old cars. Make hard choices sometimes, but would rather postpone or do without sometimes for the peace of mind of no debt. It's not easy, but I highly recommend it!!
TWO dollars?
Just say NO! That is the most ridiculous thing I have heard in weeks. Ortho fills up a lot of the page and I can't believe I am seeing this. Are you living in another country?
And you are willing to pay 100 dollars
to keep the ball rolling? I don't know... sounds fishy!
Another poll: Regarding our tax dollars.
In view of the increased cost of gasoline, housing, medical care, now heating and electric, when it comes to the tax dollars coming from YOUR income, would you prefer it go to:
A.) Those on welfare due to bad choices, those on welfare because they refuse to work, those on welfare due to unwed pregnancy, or those receiving governmental aid due to just being elderly and unable to work, or due to catastrophic illnesses or events such as Katrina.
or
B.) Those elected officials to use for their wives' tummy tucks, their children's daycare, their expensively catered business meetings with other elected officials (including water at $500 a case), their tax-funded trips with their families as "staff", and their million-dollar tax-funded pensions.
I did spend the 400 dollars too
Well, what can I say I just purchased the "software" two days ago.
And in the country I live 400 dollars is two minimun wages.-
So, I basically spent my savings in a promise, but only because I read that Alan is a minister of some kind, I just assumed a Pastor wouldn't be on the internet scaming people...
and I even talked to Alan.
Yes, I tip. Usually a couple of dollars but
if I have a lot of groceries, will make it $3. But last year on Christmas Eve when I had LOTS of groceries and the store was packed and it was pouring down rain and the sacker got soaked loading my groceries in my car, I gave him $5.
Robotype 3. It's about 8 dollars. nm

Yeah, I would rather my tax dollars go to war. nm

It's probably 40,000 Rupees, not dollars.

dollars and cents
 I get 6 cents a line for my work, but I work at MQ and am not an IC. I have been with them for 1.5 years. I was wondering myself what they got paid because I was considering getting a part time-full time gig for a second job. Now a days you almost have to.
ME TOO! I got mine for 4 dollars sm
on ebay. I am also down to my last one!
Canadian Dollars- probably French ESL nm

Yes, every other week, 78 dollars, 2200 sq ft. SM
To me it's worth every penny!
Were you playing dimes, dollars, or what ?
Am going in the next couple of months, and how much had you spent in machines?
At 3cpl, that's only 90 dollars gross. Take out
I'd bet dollars to donuts it'll be a rip-off, no doubt. - nm

if you made less than 600 dollars they don't legally have to claim it.
Just found that out also as last year my IC job only started in October and didn't make enough for taxes. This year will be different though. My employer said consider it free money. Can't argue with that. Checked with H&R Block and they confirmed it.
Depends on the pay and account. My lowest average is $15.52 an hour (roughly 182.6 lines an hour) w

1850 lines per 8 hour shift. 15.00 hour - no real requirement

You are KIDDING? In a city where a 1bdrm condo is 300,000 dollars?

Sure, eScription clients are saving a million dollars by
if it is feasable, split that 6-hour shift into two 3-hour shifts. sm
i work a split shift and find that i am much better able to stay focused and get more work done that way. also, being 3 months pregnant you have gone through the very tiring time of pregnancy and you should start seeing an energy perk before long.
Did you sell the Vonage modem to recoup some of your lost dollars?

I would check into a business line. My phone company offers one for around 55 dollars, with truly U
I am going to remove the LD from my home phone, and use the business line for all calls, then I will only have to pay about 35 above what I'm paying now. Not ideal, but the best deal I could find.
Valuable post, thanks. MT plus Skills Upgrade minus Complaining = Dollars. NM

At 200 lines a day for 6 cents, you are making $1.20 a day or 0.15 hour for an 8 hour day!!!--cm
Did you mean 2,000? Even then you would only be making $1.50 if you work 8 hours a day.
$32/hour? You said $36/hour on an earlier post. Either way would be great. n/m

10 reports/hour or 25 markers/hour

No more Wal-Mart for me
Did you read the article on how they are going to save money by cutting out full time employees for part-timers, going to hire younger people who don't look sick to save on health insurance costs, etc., making the job requirements include a lot more physical activity to exclude the retirees, etc. I refuse to shop there any more. Wait until all the younger ones turn up pregnant, are on drugs or alcohol and don't show up for work because they were out all night partying the night before. I am so sick of the corporate mentality! They don't give a rip about people any more-- just the almighty dollar so they can buy a new yacht every year.
Wal-Mart.
Point Is???? Walmart/Medquist….Sound The Same To Me….lol. It’s Called ‘Corporate America’…..Get Use To It Ladies, It’s Here To Stay And Growing Like A Giant….(Corporate America That Is; And Wal-Mart Also). I’m Afraid They Are Just Like Every Other Business In America At The Moment. Think It Will Get Better: Dream On!
I Don’t Care What Wal-Mart Does. They Can Hire Children And Beat Them With Wet Grape Vines & Feed Them Vinegar And Piss, I Will Still Shop There. At This Day & Time You Have To Go Where You Get The Most For Your Dollar. If I Were To Boycott Everything That I Had A Problem With, I’m Afraid I Wouldn’t Be Able To Buy Gas, Food, Cigarettes (Right & Left-Handed), Liquor For The ‘Social-Functions’ I Must Put On….Or Attend. Oh, also I Wouldn’t Be Able To Finance Anything…Ever. So In Short, I Must ‘Turn The Other Cheek’ & Suck It Up & In Short I’ll Show The Other Cheek, Through In The Finger From Time To Time And As For Sucking It Up…Use 2 It….No Worries…LOL.

Wal-Mart
Here in the deep south, our Wal-Mart is definitely cheaper than our grocery stores. Winn-Dixie or Sav-A-Center do not hold a candle when comparing prices and I have done this with receipts. Wal-Mart definitely is cheaper on all products here and even though I do not like the hours it takes me, my pocketbook is better off. Had to shop around because DH is disabled and I need all the help I can get.
Wal-Mart
My two cents for what it is worth. Wal-Mart (like all other companies) offer insurance benefits to all of their full time employees. They do not offer to part time employees. This is just regular business practice. Also the statement made about selling insurance through Sam's is just a business decision. And people that do not work at Wal-Mart and do not have insurance, can now buy that insurance at a better price.
Get the facts before you post please. I happen to have family members that work at Wal-Mart and they all have insurance but they are full time employees.
Just saw some in Wal*Mart the other day
But that's one aroma that may be hard to capture!
Wal-Mart
I think the qualifications to work at the Wal-Mart in our town is that you need to have 1 tooth, dirty bra straps hanging down your arm, a tattoo on your neck. That's for the women. It might be different for the men.
shopping at Wal-Mart
Our Wal-Mart Superstore is supposed to be ready by October and it is only 20 blocks from my house. It has been open for about five years and now they are turning it into a superstore. Im ready. I know some of my political friends ask how could I shop there as they dont have benefits for their employees, LOLOLOL, heck, my trans company does not provide me with any benefits either..so, sure I feel the employees pain but I need to provide for my family and that comes first..I cant wait till Wal-Mart Superstore opens, then I can do my grocery and department store shopping all at once while my car is being serviced in their automotive area.
Wal-Mart connection
My nephew has had it for 2 yrs and seems pretty happy with it, even after leaving AOL & MSN, so it seems to be decent.
My dad was a K-mart manager too...
for almost 20 years in the 70's and 80's. He has a four year degree. He is no dummy. Him being a "K-mart manager" afforded us a nice home, nice cars, and my mother was a stay-at-home mom for three kids. Managing and being responsible for a store that big is a lot harder than you think.

This is quite a chuckle. Then again, the seriousness of it all isn't that funny.

And we thot MQ was the only bad guy! 
another Wal-mart hater
Our rural town had a Wal-Mart which ran out all the local business, fabric store, sporting goods store, hardwares, etc. until there was nothing left, got free tax cuts for 20 years then left to build a Super store near by. I can't stand to go into those huge stores. It literally takes hours to shop even for a few things and most of the workers are very rude or not around when you need. I think Sam Walton's heirs got very greedy. I don't think even Paull Harvey (commentator) advertizes for them anymore.
Like I said, I already tried K-Mart and Shopko.
I'm not spending 8 hours a day looking at their ugly selections. They could stock something that wasn't made cheaply overseas and looks it. I skipped WalMart. There is nothing in the yellow pages under curtains. The only listings under draperies and window coverings are two miniblind companies and a fabric store. I don't want blinds or heavy industrial drapes, and I don't have the sewing skills or a machine to make my own. All I want is a simple set of curtains with a valance to keep the sun out of my eyes. Why does everything have to turn into a political or ethical discussion? Talk about being a killjoy when I'm happy about my new office. Besides that, catalog ordering has been around for over a century. Were our ancestors wrong for ordering from Sears & Roebuck?
I live right by the Wal-Mart that...
someone was trampled in last year on BF. I've never had any problems. Everyone seems to be super curteous. (except for the men who are constantly asking their wives if they are done.) Everyone was helping each other find where the deals were located in the store.
Wal Mart on my poo list
I went to Wal Mart as I always do. I wanted the laptop for $386. I work two jobs and really wanted to be able to remove myself from my desk to do personal stuff wherever or do my coding job away while watching tv. They only had 25 of them. I was like 35 in line. I cannot believe that is all they got in. Then I went to get the PS2 Burnout 3 game (I needed two copies) and the Scooby Doo double pack for Gameboy. They did not get extra ones in even though they advertised them for $8. They had what was in the case only, which was one of each. Oh boy how stupid. Then I got a few things like jammie bottoms and a remote control hummer for my son and the lines were awful. They were handing out these VCR/DVD combos that were not the right ones so people were MAD.
