and the speaker noted it to be about an 18% difference in your pay. The Q started this whole mess with their billing practices or lack of em and, VBC should not be the MTs burden, but the burden of the MTSO. Placing it on the back of the MT is a great way to see it all go overseas and I hope these folks are ready to pay through the nose for good editors. I am looking to see if there is another industry out there right now who treats its skilled workers with such indignity .. I need to back away from the computer!!

I attended a wedding where even
It was absolutely beautiful! White bride's dress, black tuxedos with red roses, black bridesmaid's dressing with them carrying a red rose, and the bride's huge bouquet of red roses. It was very classy!
anyone ever attended a Quinceanera?
my 14yo daughter (and family it says) got invited to one this summer on south padre island. gorgeous invitation in itself. i was thinking of possibly taking her and making a vacation out of it as it is a good 600 miles away from us. but was wondering what do you wear to one of these? a fancy dress similar to what you would a "normal" wedding? not like the one posted below, lol. do you just give them something as a present like you would for a normal b-day party? anyone with ideas or experience?
I am 55 and just attended an info session
on the associate nursing program at the community college here. By the time I finished the whole program with prerequesites I would be close to 60 yo. The clinical part of the course sounded very demanding, especially if you have a family or have to work. Then once you get through the program the "cake" jobs may take a couple more years of experience to get. The lady said a lot of hospitals will hire you easier if you to have nursing home experience.
Anyway not for me at this late stage in my life. MTing has turned me into a lazy slacker and someone who doesn't even care any more about making a lot of $$$. Also I really don't like having to deal with sick people or doctors, as I worked in hospitals when I was younger and didn't like it.
Good luck!
I justed attended a meeting and this was addressed
There are now computers that will be performing surgery. The medical field is changing in ways that are not good, according to the speaker, in that the younger physicians coming into the field are not comparable to physicians of yesterday, generally speaking. He thought it was a good direction, this computerized physician. He also did state that insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies have much to say about what goes on in the medical field (they have power/money).
Beth Moore Living Proof - Has anyone ever attended one of these events? 'm going later this mont
