A big bacon cheeseburger with hot wings on the side. All my favorite meat groups.
LOL, I was thinking the same thing!
Too much information, thanks.

Thinking the same thing.
I could have written your post except that I have not applied yet to the accel BSN program and don't want to do perioperative nursing (I'm more in line with the poster down below who wants to work in an outpatient setting).
Good luck to you. I thought I would like working alone at home, but I miss being around people.
I have been thinking the same thing...
I was going to post one, but have hesitated. Then I was on another MT board the other night, lurking, and read that this board actually edits not only posts, but who gets to pay and browse their resumes. So, the discussion was that anyone posting their resume here should be aware that their choices are being limited as many companies are denied access for personal reasons with the board owner. So....that made me nervous and have not posted to date.
I was thinking the same thing myself, well said. NM

Yes - I was thinking the same thing (sm)
When my little brother called this afternoon, I told him that I thought it was a little strange that she sent them to a hospital without calling them first, especially in an emergency situation. I also told him that I thought the midwife should be with them unless, of course, she has another patient in labor. I probably shouldn't have said anything to him right now about it. I guess I was just a little stunned. I told him though that it sounded like they were in very good hands now and I was very relieved the baby and sis in law are being monitored now. I will update when I hear more news. I wonder how I can find out or get any information on this woman's credentials?
Sorry, but the last thing I'd be thinking about if
calling a friend/relative at whatever time of day/night saying "Hey, I am rushing my child to the emergency room - I don't have time to explain but how about you call my job".
First and foremost, my child would be the only thing of concern to my family/friends. Even getting them to call MY job in a situation like that wouldn't happen.
People need more compassion. Luckily the person I work for is very compassionate and would probably smack me up along side the head for putting work before a baby in distress.

I was thinking the same thing. I am 43 and
considering going to back to school. I want to be an OR nurse or anesthetist.
I was thinking the same thing yesterday...
Christmas money spent already, next big money tax return....should go to bills. Well, maybe some will, but....there's always some pocket money to be put away for a rainy day, he he...
I was thinking the same thing as AgingMT
I noticed the topic has been closed out but just keep us updated as to how you are doing. You said some pretty scary stuff like not wanting to be here and things like that. I also think you should seek out someone to talk to other than us because we are not able to talk to you freely and we are not qualified and might say the wrong thing. Yet we care and want to know you are okay. A lot of us are closet counselors and want the best for you. It could be that we are older or it could be we have been there before. I am 44 so you could almost be my child.
You can be picky about who you choose to counsel you, maybe an older woman would feel more comfortable.
Definitely agree with Jan and some of the other posters. You obviously have the brains to succeed but it takes a healthy mind as well. Depression can hinder anyone's success regardless of having the know how or brains to succeed. So the focus should definitely be managing the depression first. Drinking would get in the way of this even as recreational I would steer clear for now. Post on mental health or christian so maybe your post won't be deleted or replies blocked.
I'm Christian so my prayers go out to you but totally respect other faiths and belief systems.

I was thinking the same thing before reading your post!
Thanks everyone! Good thing I asked, as I was thinking of 2-3 weeks! Yikes.
Thanks again. I think I will give them one month and hopefully if they find someone sooner they will let me go on my way. (what a relief that will be too!) Thanks!
Speaking of Kenny Chesney, is anyone thinking what I am thinking? see message
When I hear the words, "annulment" and "fraud" in the same sentence, I can only think of one thing. Anybody else thinking the same thing?
There are plenty of
dummies out there with degrees and certificates. You can do a halfbutt job all the way through and still get a degree with a C average.
they have plenty
I know 2 people who are relatively new and they are being recruited for it. It looks like they are putting people on it with very little experience since they are making less anyway.
i'm sure there must be plenty of those
there are also those who routinely accept Medicare assignment, write off balances, work 16 hour days, on call 7 days a week. Certainly there are national corporate executives obviously who are makin' it off the backs of MTs and, furthermore, we all try to increase our line counts using macros. But I say if her profit is so "out there" that she's feeling guilty about it by all means don't contribute to part of the problem thats wrong with America today which is general lack of morality. People who are simply trying to be honest and worry about what is right deserve to be heroes
There are plenty
of people who have gone through the legal process of becoming a US Citizen who are not US born. Yes, there are many MTs in the US who were born in India and are now US citizens who do MT work. There were several in my MT classes. I only use India as an example. There are many from several other overseas location who are now US citizens.
Yes they did. And there are plenty of
So?
Same here. There are plenty of men

We have plenty here.
That is never going to happen. Ever. There will always be people here illegally. I'm just not going to hate them for it.
I can have plenty of fun without that freakshow.

I have plenty to say, such as, Take It To A Blog. nm
:)
Plenty of work there.....
There is PLENTY of work at Amphion. I'm not sure who has been saying that they overstaff, but there is more than enough work to go around. In fact, right now there is overtime available, and they are in need of many more transcriptionists for new accounts. 
Oh I "got" PLENTY. LOL. nm

I would think you should give them plenty of
...to find a replacement. Probably a couple of months. If they seem to be dragging their feet though, I would give them about four weeks. Just my thinking.... :)
There are plenty other companies out there...sm
You don't have to put up with this. Read the boards closely and check out the Jobs Forum. Best of luck to you.
I have plenty of friends...sm
that I know from different places, clubs included, but that doesn't mean that I'm having an affair with any of them...male or female! Before I was married my best friend and I went to a particular club to dance...it was great exercise and more fun than going to a gym. I made several friends there who are strictly friends. We were all single, enjoyed each other's company, and liked to dance...nothing nasty ever went on. In fact, many times my male friends made it easy to shake men whose attention I didn't want. Sometimes people go out just because it is more fun than watching TV. Hubby and I went to the club a couple of weeks ago and I introduced him to people that I knew there. I would hate to think that because I introduced him to people that he would think I'm having an affair. I don't know if I'd be more hurt because he didn't trust me, or because he thought I was dumb enough to take him someplace and introduce him to someone I would have an affair with!
I would also hate to think that my husband would search my cell phone and check the numbers he didn't recognize. My son is in the military and at times his friends have called because they consider me a second mom or are trying to get in touch with my son. Nevermind that just about everyone has had someone call their phone and it has been a wrong number!
If someone gave me a real reason to check up on them, I probably would, but to check up on someone 'just to be sure' is insulting. If someone I care about can't come to me and talk rationally about their fears, then we don't have much of a relationship!
and plenty want everything spoonfed to them...
no, plenty of jobs out there that
plus benefits. Keep looking.
I have plenty of bills to pay...
Hubby had open heart surgery and was off work during the busiest season last year. I now handle ALL the bills except his truck insurance and truck payment to the tune of at least $5000 a month and that doesn't include the $75,000 hospital bill that the insurance doesn't pay. I couldn't do that if I didn't stick to my guns. Sure, we're not in the best of shape right now, but we are scraping by with a little ingenuity and things will get better for us...but I surely will not work for peanuts,never have, and never will...and neither should you.
You have to prove you're worth it that extra $.01 or so,(ahem), but in reality, we really need to stick together. Fighting amongst ourselves doesn't solve the problem.
There are plenty of free ones out there.
You probably have some Spyware that has gotten on your computer. I run AVG constantly and then also run SUPERAntispyware Free Edition (Google it) and also Spybot Search and Destroy, each once a week. Between these 3, I seem to catch just about everything.
There are still plenty of companies
that value patient safety more than their greed and don't use that awful VR. Find a better company.
Post above is RIGHT ON. We have plenty sm
of people working here who type the most twisted garbage I've ever seen. I have QA'd Indian work before and most of them have a better grasp than many of the people I see in my job list day after day. My company isn't offshoring right now, but it wouldn't surprise me if they did. Many of the worst MTs have more than 20 years in, can you believe that? They've hidden themselves away, haven't kept up on the changes in transcription and they refuse to accept feedback and apply it.
At least you have plenty of work!
There are some MTs who are begging for work. Or what about all the people in the U.S. who are being laid off and are unemployed. I would be happy that I am employed and they are asking you to work extra.
There are still plenty of companies willing to pay for advertising
on the TV and radio. Besides, I'd never pay for radio or TV. That's just silly.
There are plenty of online companies set up this way also-nm

When I worked for them, there was plenty of work.
They are very disorganized, though, and I spent most of my day doing unpaid clerical work. They would make lots of promises to get me to stay and then not follow through with them.
yeah I get plenty of cherries when
you are sound asleep and I'm working at 2:00 am even though I have a day schedule because the evening people failed to show up AGAIN to do their work. Yeah I get the cherries after I finish Dr. noonecanunderstandme and his reports pile up from MTs that don't want to bother until the supe asks me to do 5 of his in a row and it takes me 4 hours to get 400 lines, so I have to work late to get my line count so other MTs get their cherries. I don't want my accounts going overseas and I'll do want I need to do to protect their TAT and quality and my employer look good.
Gessh, bad attitudes are contagious...have a cherry instead.

I agree, but there are plenty of companies that don't - sm
Can still put food on the table working somewhere else. 
We got plenty and adding new accounts every day it seems - nm

There are plenty more jobs if you have a degree
I live in Atlanta. If you go to craigslist.org right now and look under the admin. jobs section...there are dozens of jobs that pay 50,000 or more if you have a degree...in anything.
There are many jobs in many different fields that pay well. In many many cases, they just want the person to have a degree, it doesn't matter in what. The ad just says...must have a bachelor's degree.
I'm currently an MT and will graduate in May with a degree in Psychology. I intend to apply for some of those 50,000+ administrative jobs and feel very confident that I will get one.
there R plenty of states where parents....n/m

There are plenty of QA people that have no business being QA.
Definitely military time has no colon!
Here is what our company does that works great! We bcc: the entire QA staff and supervisors any feedback we give the MTs. That way if we see something that is incorrect, we can say something about it to the QA person. We all have a very good rapport so no offense is taken hopefully. We usually provide a reference to anything we see that might be incorrectly given to the MT. This allows QA to know what is being told to the MTs. This also means less differences in feedback is given to the MTs and that means a lot to the MTs. The biggest complaint I know is the fact that QA staff give different feedback and it is essential that QA stay on the same page.
If more companies adopted this policy, I believe we would have happier MTs!
Well that's not true! Plenty of reasons
to check other reports! Maybe you are typing a DS and you can't understand a drug. You suspect it will be listed on the H&P, so you check there. Not there? Check the consult report. Or say you are doing an OP report and the dictator is slurring. You suspect this means he always says the same thing, so you look at some of his other OP reports for a similar report. Sure enough, you find a report with the same wording, so now you can make a normal. No HIPAA violation for doing research.
plenty of american docs do the same....nm

well, plenty of doctors get jobs and don't know
English. I'm beginning to believe there are no physicians who are actually English speaking as a primary language anymore. They're almost all ESL.
