Class of 2006

In Reply to: Graduation gifts - Mary Franciscus
Who said 0.00 because its just a high school graduation? My middle son just graduated this year and we did give him a huge graduation party with a buffet, cake, ice cream, balloons, napkins imprinted with his name and "Class of 2006" on them, etc. We did the party here in our home on a Sunday afternoon and invited family, close friends and a few teachers he had kept in touch with through the years. Yes, it was his job to earn the diploma and such was expected of him; however, the party was our reward to him for a job well done. He did receive lots of gifts -- some were money, some were things for college, etc. The monetary gifts ranged from $5 to $200. My son was just as grateful for the $5 gifts as he was for the $200 (grandparents). He also received only cards from a few people who attended, and he was still grateful for their sharing his special day. One of the gifts he was most excited about was a gift card to a bookstore. He spent a couple of hours wandering around trying to decide what books he wanted to purchase. Another gift he cherishes to this day is "A Book of Prayers for the Graduate." Don't give more than you can afford. If a card is the best one can do, then its enough because they're acknowledging an accomplishment and milestone in a young adult's life.

I don't expect anybody to read anybody else's mind for me? Unless maybe you know how to read minds??

The 5th edition was put out in 2006. Definitely

Not able to see 2006 posts
How do I get to see posts from 2006? The archives seem to show me 2004 and 2005. Sorry if this is an obvious answer, but I am not seeing it.
Sorry meant to say 2006.....- nm

$35K in 2006, PT. Last year sm
Argh! Probably about $28 to $30K. Took a job that kept running out of work. I have a full time job now and a PT IC. I think I will break $40K for 2008. I HOPE I do anyway.
Right, retired in 2006...sm
Due to medical problems, and I am certainly not up on the latest technology or who is getting what type of work. When I retired, V/R was just becoming widespread and I never was involved in it. I just loved the ESLs, but maybe they have gotten worse/more careless/truly don't GAS. My sister had one that I could hardly understand either.
CMT 1992-2006. sm
Don't worry about the test. Like Iowan said, just register and take it. I had to drop mine when I retired, but I enjoyed having it when I was working. :)
Happy New Year 2006 to you! ...nm

Anyone else really disappointed with the 2006 QLDB?
This latest version seems like a beta version. Could it be more time consuming with all the clicking, scrolling, and tabs required to click on? Even the new search feature stinks as it does not bring what you typed in to the top, it just leaves it on the bottom and you must scroll to bring it up. This one is definitely NOT built for production. Has anyone figured out how to import things from previous versions of their drug book into this one? I cannot figure it out with this version and my e-mails to them for help have gone unanswered thus far.
Is it faster than paging through a book? Yes. Is it up to the standards of their previous QLDBs? Not in my opinion and I have been very happy with the electronic version since 1999.

P.S. Those dates should be 2006, not 2005 nm

Health Insurance policy for 2006
is now charging a supplement payment for smokers and those that live with smokers. Does anyone else have this policy or getting for the next year? This not through MT companies.
Interesting article about best careers in 2006. sm

I know the Club Med there will not be open until June 2006, if that is of any help. sm
No doubt a travel agent could give you an idea of how things are. If it was me, I think I'd wait a bit. They were hit pretty hard, and there is a lot of cleanup, I'm sure.
Wherever you go, have some sun in the fun for me! 
EXText and Stedmans 2006 spellchecker?
Anybody know if they are compatible or if there are any glitches I should be aware of before I plunk down the dough? Thanks!
2005-$12K, 2006 expect to make about $21K - sm
2005 --I would have made more but when my daughter got sick in 3/05 I could not work much with her going to chemo and just dealing with everything, so that hurt my income big time. Have 2 PT jobs, 1 is a small MTSO and the other is my own account. My goal for 2007 is $24K...would like to eventually get up to $30K.
2006 Chevy Cobalt - love it!

2006 Monte Carlo SS (black)

Save your money on the 2006 version - why -
I have used the CD version ever since it has been available and loved it, UNTIL the 2006 version. It is very different from the prior versions. It is far more cumbersome to use, is not designed for speed, and was such a waste of time I went back to using the 2005 version and just adding in the new drugs. My comments and questions to Stedman's about their latest version went unanswered. Like I said, I was very pleased with the prior versions and updated every year, but I will never buy this product again unless it is MT friendly, which the 2006 version is NOT.
Get the April 2006 Consumer Reports magazine...sm
It gives you a rundown on all vehicles as well as which ones have held up well and which ones haven't over the years. It's in the stores now or your local library should have a copy you can look at for free. :o)
Anyone able to find Quick Look drug reference 2006
If so, where did you purchase it? Out of stock at the places I have checked.
TIA.
Just bought a 2006 convertible BMW - Silver. Love it. nm

2006 Jeep Commander w/Hemi-hate the gas,
since I have a tendency to hold vehicles for a long time (100, 000 miles or more) I went ahead and got it fully loaded - DVD for grandkids, saddle brown leather seats, the whole nine yards. The nearest store to me is 15 miles away so we stock up at shopping time, plus I work from home, so I don't drive every day. My last vehicle was a 1998 Jeep Classic with over 100, 000 miles and I gave it to my son. I like the boxy look. Some people think it's a Hummer, though.
direcway has not been a "company" since at leat 09/2006. They are now hughes. sm
Service is great. Tech support stinks cause it is done in a different country. Been with direcway (now Hughes) for 5 years. wound not change.

Thank you for this info!! Texas has passed law to be effective sept. 1, 2006!!!! nm

IRS and medical records are other people's business. It's the way of the world, 2006
There is nothing you can hide. Insurance companies have your info and share it with other insurance companies. Medical records are passed from doctor's office to doctor's office, secretary to secretary, MT to MT.
I have the 2006 edition. But the 2007 of this and the Quick Look Drug Book come out

Saw on job board, Webmedx AAMT Employer of year, 2006 trying to pull
MTs generally don't give a RIP about AAMT? I doubt seriously that this will entice MTs anymore than if they just left that ridiculous blurb out. I, frankly, think AAMT is an embarassment to the MT industry. Sharon (Ace) Ventura
I thought they can only audit you or send you a tax bill 2 years prior. It is now 2006 - the 2 year
I may be wrong here - maybe it is 3 years, but I thought the law changed and it was 2 years. Check into it.

MT class
I am wondering about how much transcribing is expected to be done a day. Number of reports, lines or maybe pages. I only have my students two times a week for one hour at a time. I don't want to give them too much or too little. Thank you.
What a class act
I think your line "Shove it where the sun don't shine" says it all. Medquist must be so proud to have you as an employee.
class
If you are classified as a Statutory Employee you can use the deduction. Be very careful. Got to irs.gov pulldown menu self-employed......You don't have to guess. You have to know the square footage of your dwelling, the square footage of the room you use as an office to get a % of what is used for work. Add up all of the utilities, interest, mortage, and multiply the %. That is your deduction. Sch C is probably easier. Home off deduction does you NO good if you have a NOL (net operating loss) from business earnings.
And then there is no class

I also did this. One class from my BA.
I'm weighing my options and may go ahead towards a Master's degree but ultimately, I did so for the same reasons. In 5 years there are going to be so many MTs vying for fewer jobs that it will drive down wages and I'm not going there. So, I'll just learn to do something else.
You said it - in a word - class
The man just does his job (extremely well)and goes home to his family. No stupid hollywood publicity stunts, no games.
The class action against MQ by MTs should be about
forget about Ricca laws and tying it to hospitals and line counts.
They have lied and done smoke and mirrors to the point that there
probably could be a case made for that alone.
And why do we never hear anything more about the SEC case?
And the FBI case against MQ for sending military information over
unsecured lines?
What happened to all that?
We met in a Flirting class!
Class action...
I was involved in several of these suits - most of them with Medquist - and the biggest check I ever got was $3.61.
Once was middle class.
I was going to agree with you at first, but.... There is always food on the table, bills are paid. Have pretty much what I need, but as I get older I care about having a lot less. Certainly not rich, neither of us will be able to retire any time soon, although had we planned better, we might have been able to. So I guess that put's us sort of in the middle, huh?
Hardly. We will always have and need a middle class.
The middle class is supporting everyone. This is a socialistic society.
I work and make money to pay for my stuff.
I work and make money to pay for YOUR stuff.
Believe me, there is a need for a middle class in a society like this one. They're just apprehensive to use the "S" word because it sounds too much like *gasp* Communism!
Yes, we will always NEED a middle class,
but don't think it will ALWAYS be there....just look around you.... Maybe when the rich have to take care of the "working poor" we will see a turn-around, but then again maybe they'll just "forget" them. Don't have much faith in this economy. The poor are being ripped of any programs that existed just a few years ago. By the time the "middle class" hits bottom, there will be no help, no kind of any social programs in existance, just the rich and poor. Which will you be? Yeah, yeah, I'm pessimistic, but also realistic.
