In Reply to: Where are all the part-time IC jobs? - Maddie
I have 25 years experience and have been posting on this site and one other..I want to be able to start PT and then when my full-time job stops Radiology Overtime, then I'll be free to do more at home. Is it the economy? I love being at home and dread having to pound the pavement and work somewhere at night!

so what are you waiting for?

I am waiting for an internship, I have given up trying to find a job! I decided that everyone is right, you have to do the internship or mentoring program and that is the way to go!!! I think it is the way to get my foot in the door so to speak. Thank you for all who have given me good advice. I think this is the way to go! There is no other way to go, that is my belief anyway...
waiting
I totally understand....
What are waiting for?
Wouldn't it be fabulous if all of us young chicks in our 50s formed our own business together? I don't know what business it would be, but we'd sure have fun! I think we should all audition for Deal or No Deal, and whichever one wins, we split the winnings between us. Wouldn't that be a gas? 
I'll be waiting to see
those Keystrokes links.
Agree and waiting until we all will have to pay for

I kept waiting to be scared on that one
but it never happened. The ending was SO incredibly stupid that I can't believe I wasted $2.99 renting it.
Nope....not new.....still waiting!!

Just like when you have call waiting, you hit the

Take the one waiting for or try to work both sm
for short term to see which is really the one you want. Ya never can tell. If need be, be up front with current employer, tell them you want to be fair and say working both places to SEE rather than just quit them.
I am not sure about the waiting lists here yet,
but I do know that the program only takes so many students. That will probably be another thing I will have to factor in too. Great tip on taking the electives while waiting though. I am only going for the associate's degree as well. Are you interested in going into psych too?
what if I have call waiting?
Will the call waiting interfere with it?
Ha, sitting here waiting
for work!
waiting for work
just curious - who do you work for?
Been waiting 3 months
for an Illinois company to pay me the one and only invoice I sent them. Have sent emails so that everything is in writing. I have called and left message, but she's not in and doesn't call back. Excuses have been that client not billed, I'm been sick, will send next week, etc. Filed a complaint with Better Business Bureau, but they cannot help in matter. Talked to Labor Board, but they cannot help because I was a contractor, and they suggested I get a lawyer. I am now in process of writing a demand letter and then will file small claim lawsuit. I began asking for payment since 10 days after invoice and still nothing!
Only worked for them for a week because I knew it wasn't going to work out, so I think this is MTSO messing with me because they are ticked off. I thought of billing client I did work for just to embarrass her!
Sitting waiting right now....
I guess this gives us time to chat on MTStars.
Waiting for what? They don't do yearly updates.
What else is there to say? But if you want to keep on whining about something that is untrue be my guest.
kid's crazy waiting to see mars
do you have kids stay up late just to see mars... oh!! my poor little girl waited for this planet since the start of august, and she is hoping to see it tonight or tomorrow as big as moon. she even marked it on the calendar... and what's funny about it is that we have never spoted the mars... not once. grrrrr!!!!
Many years ago, I was in a waiting room
with a group of men waiting for interviews for the same job. After about 15 minutes of very cold, snarled stares from them, one of them spoke up and told me I should go home, that they had a family to support and I had no business there taking jobs from them. I guess it didn't matter to him that I was a divorced mother with 2 children of my own to support and that even if I had no one to support and was a billionaire, it was my right to be there for that job interview as much as his.
I stayed and went through the interview process. I didn't get the job; I don't think that man (just cannot bring myself to call him a gentleman) did either as he was not the manager I dealt with later in that office.
It really burned me that men would have that attitude toward women. It started a slow change in my perspective on the gender differences, equal rights for women, etc.
So why don't you post something about transcription? You just waiting for somebody SM
to post what you like? post something about transcription, don't gripe about what other people post.
She already bought it, too late for waiting! nm

Another day of waiting endlessly for work
But come Thursday and throughout the entire weekend wil come a stream of e-mails saying there is work now for us to make up our lines!!! Are we to be available 24/7 at these places? Does ANY company hire enough people and have enough work for those of us who actually WANT to work at a steady pace? Anyone? Really tired of this. I am a very dedictated MT.
My Yahoo IM is not working either...still waiting

Congratulations! I am waiting on kittens....
I live in the country, some neighbors moved and left 7 cats, one being female, who is pregnant. Poor little thing only has one eye, but she sure is cute! Have taken her in to show her a bit of TLC, now the wait for her brood! They will all be neutered in the next 2 weeks and she will be spayed after her kittens are here. One good thing though, we have no mice!
...shows up in your que with the next 1 or 2 jobs waiting for you. nm

You should disable call-waiting because if you are....
doing a low-speaking doc and have the volume up high, you'll blow your ear drums out. On the other hand, if that is your only line, what if someone from work needs to get in touch with you? As far as losing the job you're working on, it would depend on how the system is set up and whether or not the work is assigned to you or in a pool. I'm not sure if the phone has a "hold" button or not. It's been a while since I used one but I had 2 lines so it wasn't a problem. Good luck.
It is best to disable the call waiting
so you have less interruptions as it can be annoying but I don't think it will mess up the dictation. Also, may want to look into getting voice mail through phone company rather than your own answering machine if you don't already have that so you don't miss any important calls. My set up is such that all unanswered calls go to voice mail.
WHAT did you do? I've been waiting to find out!
I right clicked and dragged a file from my desktop into ExpressScribe but it played back very distorted. Just wondering if there was a better way to do it.
I get tired of waiting for my check
I work because I need the money. Companies hire you because they need the money. All I am asking for is to be paid on time... Not 1, 2, or 3 days later due to our postal service. Mail the check earlier. I promise I will not deposit it until my scheduled pay day. Receiving a check in the mail on a weekend does not help me if my bank is not open. My creditors do not want to hear " I am waiting on my money before I can send you yours". Please.....
Have ordered it and am waiting for its arrival.
the tutorials, I think it will work for what I do.
Still waiting: $60 earned or received? nm

Sitting here waiting for work
I hate it when this happens. Sitting here waiting for a job to get into the pool. This is so stupid.
Waiting on new Dell computer, anyone else?
What in the world is going on with Dell, does anyone know? I have had a brand new computer ordered since about a month or so ago and today has been the 4th time they have prolonged the delivery, stating needing to get parts. I have ordered several from them before and never this problem. Has anyone else had a problem with them?
Walmart is a weekly MUST and of course we're waiting for

they have until jan 31st to get 'em out...waiting for mine

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on their
I have a glitch with mine and waited a month and a half, not wanting to be pushy. This was after I telephoned and spoke with the girl from Textware that posts here sometimes, told her what my problem was and that I had sent an e-mail through their website and not heard back within a few days. She told me to send her the glossary I was having trouble with, and I e-mailed it both as a reply to her, in accordance with her instructions for sending, and also e-mailed again to tech support through my own e-mail provider. Anyway, I finally contacted again and she was going to be out for a couple of days, and though another person did try to help, I have been too busy to mess with it, but was irritated that I was told they did not receive my e-mails (I still have them in my box) and Kristen did not bother to call and let me know they did not receive it, even though I had taken the time to call her and explain my problem after the first unsuccessful e-mail. Sorry, I guess I needed to vent about that . . .
Anyway, if you have your glossaries saved and are sure you won't lose anything, I would uninstall and reinstall if it were me.
Can anyone tell me when 1099s are due out to ICs. I am still waiting for mine with many excuses fro

She was a big help and I miss her too. I guess she is waiting for the new site or
does not know this one is back, but she probably does. I miss her help.
Still waiting for response to my letter sent to President
Bush about Katrina. I called the White House and later sent in fax and so far have no response. Good luck.
Hi, Ms Indigo:I am still waiting for an answer to my quesfion?..nm

Actually, I'm sitting here waiting for the Dell technician to come to my house.
He's going to replace the CD-R drive in my computer, but I already told him it's not the drive. It's either the cable or the motherboard. I know this, because I took the Dell CD-R out of the computer and put it into my old computer. It worked. And when I took the CD drive out of my computer and put it into the Dell, it didn't work. But hey, I'm just a stupid female who only has a computer science degree and 10 years of technical experience. Let the dude from Dell figure it out, then it'll take forever to get the right parts here.
I have a tattoo horror story I've been waiting to tell.
It's a bit off color and subject, but it has the word tattoo in it. Now's as good a time as any. I once met an Indian man ((feathers, not dots)) that had a tattoo that was evidently a woman's name on his shoulders - from side to side in very BIG letters. I know the letters were bigger than my hand from tips to wrist. Okay, I had to ask, and he tole me he had broken up with her, so he took an iron and burned the letters from his shoulders. I don't know if you know about Indians and keloid scars...needless to say, it was a scar of EPIC proportions. I was sooooo sorry I asked.  We're a passionate people.
Waiting for QA to get back to you about 1 simple thing and not being able to move on.

Any Sopranos fans out there waiting for the big return on Sunday?
Can't wait.
I have been waiting since I first heard they were coming back last year...
and I'll probably fall asleep before the ending. Happens all the time.
How would you like to go to Canada and be on a months-long waiting list
just to get a CT scan? Or cardiac bypass done? That is exactly what happens over there as we have friends over there who have given us first-hand accounts of their struggles with Canada's medical system. My daughter has shunted hydrocephalus. If I have any question about how she's acting, if she may be experiencing shunt failure, I take her in to her neurosurgeon and she is in for an MRI or CT immediately... that day. When she had a shunt failure a couple of years ago when she was 5, while we were out of town, she was taken to the emergency room, had a CT, had helicopter ride back to our home hospital 1-1/2 hours away, was in surgery, and home the next day. I would be scared to death to be living in another country.
I'm just waiting 'til the time a mistake is made - SM
in my own healthcare as a result of the doc typing theire own note and messing up, or worse - the work getting messed up offshore. OR my identity getting stolen as a result of offshoring. Then it'll be lawyer-time, and hopefully then my 'ship will come in', and I can retire if I win my case.
All patients should have this in the backs of their minds.
