Hi,

I need help as I don't want to make anyone sick LOL.  Baby shower tomorrow night, my co-host who was making the deviled eggs along with other things broke her wrist this morning...soooo, I am in a time crunch and would like to know if I can make these things tonight (36), just boil them tonight, maybe do the prep just fill them tomorrow??  I usually make them & take them or serve them, but don't know about preparing them this 24 hrs ahead of time.

Thank any of you experts in advance for your opinions..this is so much easier than trying to call Betty Crocker

Flexibility is the "key" in this profession, and also you have the type of job that not just anyone can do and be good at it.  Schools promise you the world, but they do in all professions.  Life is what you make of it, and that is the true bottom line!  Have fun, and keep typing!  There are so many doctors that like to have a Transcriptionist they can rely on.  Most offices decide once they send it out, to bring it back actually because they don't want to edit their own work!  We spoil them, not the EMRs, and believe me they like that!

well, my chicken's eggs really.  Although now that I rethink that, perhaps selling various pieces parts would pay a few more bills....hmmm....

Seasonal things make good spare cash too like an honor-system veggie table  parked at the end of the driveway and homemade wreaths and x-mas centerpieces made from local greenery. 

Oh the possibilities are endless if you posess a certain moral flexibility!   I've been thinking of rigging up a pay-per-view "boobie cam" pointed my way to make some extra cash while I type away.  "PayPal Accepted!"   

I just started what I hoped was my final MT job, but now it looks like it's time to start looking again.  I have over 35 years' experience and this outfit has had me on QA for a month now. 

They're nitpicky over hyphens.  You use a hyphen here, but not here.  Hello?  These doctors can barely make a coherent sentence.  They don't have a clue whether near-syncope has a hyphen or not...FYI, per the BOS bible, it does, but not according to the outfit I'm working for...nor does the MD care.  He just wants his report back in a readable format. 

And there is no such word as cary or carie when you're referring to teeth...it's caries, period.  I did win that battle. 

I worked for a short time for another outfit at minimal pay (marking time until better thing came along) that was nitpicky over semicolons. 

As my DH's boss once told him when he was worrying about the small stuff, "Don't worry about the mules, just load the wagons."

So if there's an MTSO out there who's looking for a fast, accurate, punctuationally-challenged (apparently) MT who loves ER/psych, feel free to contact me. 

I could kick myself -the company I am working for keeps saying it will pick up and I keep staying, meanwhile I have put on hold a job I should have taken-MDI in Maryland. I have learned my lesson! I am finally ready to move on-anyone looking for an IC who can do 1300 lines a day?

Students will come out of the top 3 schools ready to work, but will have to work for lower line rates as apprentices.  So who do you think the MTSOs will hire? 

We won't hire newbies that's for sure. There's way too much training that you have to do with a brand new MT, lower line rate or not. That's the least of our worries as MT's.

Is anyone willing to strike when an agreement is not met (higher wages, etc)?  I doubt it.  Most are living paycheck to paycheck as it is.

I hate to be a pessimist, and this will be my last post on this subject, but sad to say most of us can't even get along on this board, do you really think we could come together to form a union? 

There was another post about someone trying and no one showing up.  I guess they had to stay home and type...  Good luck though...  I truly mean that..
