Well, next time I see a St. Jude's ad with those sobbing parents and bald headed kids, I'll think of you and 2 MTs going to Hawaii on the money donate to your hospital.

Hawaii
Not much advice other than to do your research first, obviously. Hawaii can be much more expensive to live depending on where you move. We lived in Honolulu and it is WAY overpriced, and it is near impossible to find apartments. That is the reason we moved away. We had our son and couldn't find a place to live and most of the places in our price range ($1000 a month) were just dumps. Every place had 20 or more people also applying for it. After 6 months of searching for a place to live, we decided to move back to the mainland.
Now we are moving back, but we are moving to the Big Island. Prices are cheaper and it is more laid back. We want away from the city. Since I have a family, we are getting our own place. We are going to start with a 1-bedroom apartment temporarily until we find out what area we want to live and then we will find a house. But if I were single again and moving, I would find someone that needs a roommate. This is what I did before. I moved with my sister, and then we she moved away, I moved in with some friends. We were able to get a nice house with all 3 of us sharing the rent. I also would not sign a full years' lease unless you are absolutely sure you want to stay. Many go over only to realize Hawaii is not paradise. Some love it, some hate it. It is a different culture and a different mindset there. But I love it and can't wait to return. Feel free to email me with any questions. : )

warm hawaii
it will be my first time living in hawaii-any advice? are you getting your own place out there? I'm in the freeeezing cold smack in the middle of the country right now so I am also looking forward to escaping!
yes, that is true, but Hawaii is much different.
moving to a place where they are suddenly the minority. I have lived all over the United States, having moved to a new state just about every year since I was 19, but moving to Hawaii was definitely a culture shock to me at first. Luckily, because I have moved so much, I adapted quickly, but others do not do so well. That is why if you visit any forum regarding Hawaii, you will find many haoles (non-Hawaiian, usually refering to "white" people) complaining about the locals being racist. Many can't leave the mainland mentality behind on the mainland and those are the ones who end up hating Hawaii.
Hawaii trip for 2 winner?
Does anyone know if they have announced the winner for Hawaii trip offered by MedQuist? When I filled out my entry form it said the winner would be announced on July 1, 2005. I am so curious! :)

Medquist Hawaii Prize
Anybody heard who won the trip to Hawaii? Or did Frank and Greg go with their secretaries?

AAMT conf in Hawaii
Must be nice, but I sure don't know many MTs who could afford it. Also, as an IC, if I take time off I simply don't get paid!
Interestingly, Kim Buchanan (the current president of AAMT) was formerly employed by Healthscribe. In fact, due to her AAMT status, she was a feather in their cap (so to speak). No conflict of interest there...
He often leads parades in Hawaii...
where he chants "No ice in paradise!" - referring to crystal meth - big problem there.
Moving to Hawaii in June!
I will be working from 4 am til about 10 or 11 and then going to have the rest of the day to enjoy the sun and surf! Lived there before and loved it and can't wait to get back.
Can't even afford a vacation on the mainland! Hawaii?!! No could do. nm

Tropical paradises. Hawaii cannot be beat.

frank went to hawaii to evaluate and study the accomodations.
Frank didn't think this Hawaii vacation would serve the purpose he had in mind so the CEOs are putting their heads together and doing a study and are sure that the new Hawaii vacation they come up with will please all involved but in the meantime please continue transcribing as they value all of our efforts and will get back to us on the Hawaii vacation in a year or so once the CEO and managers form committees to study the vacation and fair way of chosing a winnner while studying the effects of a vacation on work habits of the lowly MT.
frank is in hawaii and won't be back until he feels like it. or he is fired,
Ask Frank is still on MQ website. Greg is back. Can Greg help?
Ask Greg or Frank or whoever is the current CEO. They can check e-mails from Hawaii.
 Aloha.
Hawaii, the place where Dr. Green died on ER. It looked like heaven there. nm

frank says aloha and wishes you were here but unfortunately funds for Hawaii vacation dried up.
Frank is now working on a vacation for lucky MT to home office in beautiful downtown New Jersey.
