I tried posting this on the state boards but there is no activity there, so I am posting here.

Thinking about moving to Arizona next year.  Somewhere around the Goodyear, Surprise, Litchfield Park area.  Love Estrella Ranch but it is just a tad too pricey for what we want to spend.  Anybody from Arizona care to share if there are other communities similar to Estrella Ranch?  Where are the best schools for high school and middle school?  good, bad and ugly would be great. 

Thanks

am wondering how that works.  If you're in QA, do you ONLY do QA work?  Or do you also do transcription?

I ask because when I receive updates from my office, and it shows which MTs and which QA's are currently working, sometimes there are NO REPORTS in QA, and it makes me wonder if those folks just sit there until something comes along, or do they do something else in the meantime?

No one to ask this evening so thought I'd ask here.  Thanks!

I tried both suggestions, but neither moved the "file through help" portion back to the horizontal toolbar - still vertical on the left side of the page.

thank you for trying...

He owns this house. It is too expensive for me to live here. It is an older home, needs work, expensive to heat. I work 5 pm to 2am. So evenings and nights. He puts kids to bed. I and kids wake up at 9am. Kids go to bed at 10pm.

And, there is nothing...I say N O T H I N G to rent in my daughter's school district (I've already moved her twice) and I am staying in this district til she graduates or if I am settled, for the duration of little kids' schooling.

Nope, don't have any interest in being Radiology Director of a 300+ bed hospital. Sorry.

Thanks for post.

Stay away from the D/FW area and Houston - too much traffic and illegals.  Drugs, gangs, etc.  Try to find a small town or country setting.  It is HOT and the concrete of the cities just increases that heat.  Also the pollution in these areas is bad so if you have any type of lung or breathing problems - stay away.  However, if you do not mind sitting in traffic for an hour to get to a job 10 miles away - then you should move to a big city.  If you are planning to work from home, remember that internet is not available everywhere in Texas.  Personally, I wouldn't move to Texas - I would choose SC or FL - much better options.

Some places will promote their lead Transcriptionist into management, but that's often a mistake.  Having excellent transcription skills is not the same thing as having mentoring, motivating, planning, budgeting and interpersonal skills in a transcription environment. 

You've had a boss who thought you had potential in these areas.  Do you feel you would enjoy doing those things or would you feel the call of the keyboard?  Would you dislike delegating?  Would you dislike training because it's just faster and easier to do it yourself?  Do you like dealing with people, or do you prefer to deal with data and to be left alone to do your thing?  These are some of the questions to consider because the jobs really are different.

If you are truly tired of the rat race that is production typing and think you really might be interested in management, then check your local junior college or business school for classes on management/supervision.  They might be credit classes or they may be career/life enrichment classes.  They shouldn't be all that expensive, and they should give you a better idea about whether this is the path you want to take.  Employers sometimes look for the RHIT or CMT credential for management personnel.  If you aren't one of those, then proof of study in the management field may be of help to you.

I find that I generally like to read/discuss management techniques more than I like doing them, but it's getting harder and harder to do the production thing.  Maybe I'm ready to try management again.  I think I've learned not to make the same mistakes I made before.  It's thinking about making the new ones that's holding me back!  Best of luck in whichever path you take.

I could use any help from someone more savvy than I am in regards to the making the template not move.

I was given a letterhead that I now need to put headers in.  The need to be lined up like this:

PATIENT NAME:   @@                      DOB: @@

PHYSICIAN:   @@                              MR#: @@

No matter what I try, I can not fill in one field without the other field moving over. It is so time consuming to have to back it up each time considering there are four fields each side.

Any ideas? 

The form I need to make this on has their header with log and the footer with their names and the like, so I have the inside of a template so to speak, to work in. 

thank you for anything to help.

I worked for MQ for over 2 decades, from back when they were Transcriptions Limited.  Have nearly 34 years experience in EVERYTHING except pathology. 

I was offered a job with a company where I would do urgent care from an FTP site using my Word 2003.  That is fine.  My question is, how do you count lines?  They said something about counting lines using Word 2003 as everything on the page is paid for.  I don't even know how to do that.  That is what happens when you work for one company for so long, you get use to their program and never think about it.

Is there a way to count lines for every single document all at once or do you have to count lines for each document?  Haven't started this yet, but sure would like to know what I am doing before I get hooked up into this.

Thanks ahead of time!

Does anyone know how to move the auto correct entries that you have on one computer and putting them on another computer also.  I have my home computer that I have my side Doc that I do and I will be working for a hospital and want to also have them on this computer.  I tried some directions that I got off microsoft.com with just putting a floppy in clicking files/folders, local hard drive and put in file name to search- normal. dot but nothing came up.  Is there another way, as I would hate to type these all over again?

Thanks

Unfortunately, I have to sell everything in my apartment and am being forced to move. I plan on having a moving sale, but I really want to keep my rocking chair and a small endtable that belongs in my family.  I can pack quite a bit in my car and drive across country with everything, but I know I will have at least three boxes that will probably not fit in the car.

My question - I cannot afford a moving company, or a moving van, and I had looked into getting a little trailer to put on the back of my car, but apparently that is not an option on my car.

So that being said, how can I get my rocking chair and family end table to my next destination the cheapest and safest way?  How do I wrap up a rocking chair and table??  Would Mail Box Etc cost a fortune?  The post office makes you do your own wrapping and boxing.  Should I just let the chair and table go?

Any suggestions?

I have recently moved and can not find my IT disk to load the program into my new laptop!!  I have looked everywhere and can not find the disk!!  I have the book but no disk!!  I am starting a new account today and desperately need to transfer it to my new computer from my old one.  Is there one install file in all of these on there that will do the job or do I have to copy over all of these files?

Thanks!!

I am interested in knowing a few things about living in Canada and working for the U.S. company.  I also understand Canadian medical institutions utilize MTs.  Would like to correspond with an MT living in Canada. 

My e-mail address is above.  If you have time to answer a few questions, please e-mail.  I am considering moving to B.C., Vancouver or Okanagan Valley depending what I find during my scouting of each area; am presently in California. 

Thank you!

I now live in Florida and have a 75-pound chest of drawers that belonged to my mother in the Midwest.  I want to bring it down here, but I don't have a truck and my car is a compact, cannot two anything with it. 

Does anyone have experience with this type of a small move?  Would it be better to have it packaged and sent via a  service like DHL or somebody?   I would rather not entrust it to a moving van company.

Thanks for any suggestions. 

Plus mushmouths, auctioneer-wannabes, clueless ESLs, and cellphones and beepers too close to the mic, and monotone dictators who bore the crap out of you.  

Plus any dinging spellcheck bell that blows out your eardrum, too, if the volume is up due to Marilyn Monroe sexily giving dictation in her soft voice.  Not doc's fault but still a pet peeve.
