If you bought the books that was selling whose husband was in Germany -- did you receive your books.  I have not, she at first was corresponding with me but now she has not answered all last week and so am wonderng if anyone got their books from her.     Thanks.

Going to Ireland in a few months.

have Stedman's Medical Dictationary on CD and I do use it quite a bit, but that's more because the actual print dictionary is so darn heavy to pick up and look a word up!

Some may feel this is dishonest, but honestly how are they going to know? Do you have to send them a picture of the book or a copy of the receipt or are they asking you to purchase this book through them? I have purchased many books over the years and have found the Internet as well as the many, many specific sites for anything I have ever wanted. Yes, I have one specific book for my specialty that I adore and use all the time for those weird names that I sometimes cannot figure out how to spell and it has helped, but with all that is available on-line I don't see how they can expect this of you. I too used to send away for the yearly drug book, but have not had to do so in many years since I started using the Internet. Good Luck and too bad for them.

I used to work in Miami - had my own service for many years.  One of my clients was a complete jerk, an OB/Gyn guy.  Okay... here's the deal... I went in to pick up my tapes (back in the day). The receptionist handed me three tapes. I went back to my office transcribed the tapes, printed out the work, took it back the next day.  When I arrived at the reception desk, I told the receptionist that I thought I heard a funny noise on the tapes, like someone scooting around in a leather chair - (if you get my drift).  She laughed and said "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you yesterday.  Dr. Yada Yada told me that when I gave you the tapes yesterday, I was supposed to tell you, "Give these to (ME) with three fa_rts and my love."  How disgusting is that?.  Why do we have to put up with the mud they sling us?  I don't know if they will allow me to post this message, but I get so fed up with the slurs and disgusting things that these so-called professional physicians do when they dictate.  I am certain that you have all been there and done that.  How about a little respect.. Thanks for allowing me to vent.

Most schools will not use corporal punishment any more period.  Believe me, there are some kids at our school that could use a good whack on the backside.  However, the school district then would have to worry about assault charges from parents.  Teachers aren't willing to risk their entire careers over a bad apple.

The 4th grade girl who brought a handgun to my child's nice suburban school got suspended for three days and counseling.  The 5th grade boy who brought a knife was led off in handcuffs by police, but he was back in school the very next week.  Now, he's an angry high school kid who has to take a special class with other "angry" kids.  The kindergartener who stabbed my kid's teacher in the face with a metal mechanical pencil last year wasn't removed from her classroom at all.  Instead, they brought in a "behavioral specialist".  It wasn't working, but I told the principal if my children were in any of these kids' classes again, I'd be sending all my kids to private school.

After changing carrers from our Home based MT business here in Summerlin-Las Vegas, we have collected a few dozen current and past MT and Medical-Word/Terminology books.

If you are having a somewhat hard time starting up yours, we know how difficult it can be and would like to donate these manuals free to a serious MT newbie in need if you can pick them up here in Summerlin, Las Vegas. 

Please send us an email stating your true need and aspirations for MT carreer. We want to give the books somewhere where they will be most needed and used.

PLease send the email by Aug 12, after midnight we will review what ever emails we get and send further instructions for pick up. Thank you.

I use my pharmaceutical word book most often, then Stedman GI/GU & Stedman Equipment.  I have a used 2004 Pharmaceutical word book (Drake & Drake) if you would like it.

Well worth getting.  Also research online for Expanders -- there are lots of lists out there to give you an idea how to make your own. Some are free downloads.  But you do definitely have to have your own system and just use these to give you an idea how to set up one.  No two brains work the same.  I refuse to work without my list!!

I prefer reference books, as all my work stays in one spot in my office.  Have tried the CDs in the past but didn't care for them.  I can understand wanting the convenience of having everything on a laptop since it sounds like you move around frequently.  Guess it depends on the work sutation.
