If you are gpod, you can make a LOT more doing MT than either of those fields.

In Reply to: Agree. You could be a Surgical Tech or Respiratory Therapy or a Med. Tech. nm - You won't make what you're worth out here

Make 12 cpl but constantly rewinding, going in/out of fields
If you can utilize speed typing engines, have same docs, the format is user friendly, it is possible, in the long run, to make as much as I do at 12 cpl.
I think you should try it for two weeks and consider that after three months you will be twice as fast due to familiarity.
How do you make fields in Word Perfect like in Word? I'm drowning out here
in new keyboard commands, macros, etc. Thanks.
Isn't it time to go to the fields?
Please Amish lady, go pick the pumpkins and the gourds, isn't it that time of year? Then hitch up your horse and buggy and take them down to Wal-Mart to try to sell them.
But there are lots of fields where you can come right out
what you get a degree in. Something like sociology, anthropology, etc. - no, probably not many jobs. Psychology you really need a graduate degree. Social work you can find jobs with a bachelor's but not that well paying, so would need a graduate degree.
But look at a lot of the medical professions - heck, nursing, physical therapy, respiratory therapy, medical technology (except they call it something else now), radiology, pharmacy, etc. etc. - all are BOOMING. Just gotta be smart about what you get your degree in.
Have not in MT field, but in other fields
and how many of us women are the sole support of our families? Many...
Alt + F9 toggles fields on and off.

You need two commands for fields.
You need to add the End command after each Ctrl + F or all your text after the field will be inside the field when you expand it.
switching fields
Many big nationals have every specialty now. If you work for one, ask them if you could just do rad and path. You might find path interesting but rad could be a tad boring.
switching MT fields
I've been doing acute care for almost 30 years, but I would really like to do radiology and/or pathology. What's the best way(s) to get into these fields?
Jumping to fields
Hi everyone! For years I have been jumping to fields in Word by using the F11 key. Does anyone know if I can customize my keyboard to use alt/c to jump around and how to set that up?
Thanks!
I have never seen a white man/woman in the fields.
Who would want to stand in 100 plus degree temps or, in winter, nonstop rain, chilly temps, working the fields or tending the cattle? No one who was raised with sliced bread; they'd probably starve first.
I was married to an ag man (cattle). The immigrants come and go across the border often (visiting family). It is not difficult.
They are keeping the price of the food you eat down.
Admin: I get cut off a lot in the subject/name fields.

don't care for it. too many fields to fill
in because it seems like the demo's are never there and of course you don't get paid for that, then you have to wait for extra screens to come up before you can select the dr/cc/patient name/etc. there's no way to drop the normals in directly without using the menu, the Expander is more hassel than good. it's straight forward to use but I feel it is a slow process since you can't just start typing without filling in numerous fields.
Wherever you want the field, do ctrl F9. Once you have all the fields....sm
in you do F11 to "jump" to each field. Makes life a lot easier.
Hit Alt F9 after you insert your file and you should see your fields. nm

Inscribe help... QA marker and fields
On my acct I am supposed to put brackets and put the time of the marker inside [1.12] for QA to review.
When I put this in and continue, my typing jumps to that field and erases over and over.
Can someone tell me how to prevent this??? It is driving me insane.
Using fields in Instant Text
If you are typing in MSWord you can create fields for the places where you want to fill in the different type of phrases using shortcuts.
See post:
http://fitaly.com/board/itmainforum/posts/5849.html
Add fields with Ctrl + F9 and jump to them with F11. sm
Shift + F11 will take you back to a previous field.
F12 is the shortcut for opening SaveAs.
Does anyone use SmarType and Word using text fields {}? When I F11..sm
to the next field {} it causes SmarType to lock up. Does anyone know how to fix this?
thanks so much
I understand your frustration but this is happening in all fields.
It affects every work situation as technology advances, etc.
The fact is one cannot expect to have a lifelong career in any one line of work without experiencing some times of either changing with the flow or stepping into another line of work.
hit insert button before filling in fields.
see if that works for you. You will need enough space in between or you will type over the next field.
you also can do columns but I am not good at those; hopefully someone else will come along with info on that.
There are ESL specialists in all fields & all over the country. You've just been extremely lucky
s
The easiest way for this one is to insert blank fields with Ctrl + F9. You jump to
each field with F11. You use Shift+F11 if you skip a field and need to go back. If you don't see your fields in the doc, hit Alt+F9 to show or hide fields.
Bookmarks and cross-reference fields are used when you have static information you need to pull into a field. That isn't the case when you are dealing with variable info.
You'll hear this claim in all fields by "the suits"
I've said it before and I'll say it again...back that sh^t up with a specific name or a place so there can be actual consequences. I can throw anything in quotes and say I heard it from somewhere or someone. It holds no water and only serves to get people workedup for an invisible fight.
Am I doubting what she heard is true? Maybe, maybe not. It can't be proven because there is no factual evidence provided. However, my mother was an LPN and she always said her higherups referred to her as nothing more than an overpaid candystriper or overpaid a$$ wiper. My father, a machine mechanic, said he was referred to as an overpaid janitor. It's a wicked old and wicked lame argument to get the reader or listener riled up to basically do nothing and it's amateur stuff. But, that's just me.
SHOW US THE NAMES! Then we can gather our pitchforks, burning keyboards, and Betty Crocker aprons and go to war!
You need to Ctrl + A, then hit F9 to update all fields. To update header,
you need to switch to print preview and back or print the document.
You spending 3K in gasoline to make 4K plus all that time on the road?That doesn't make sense Pat
How nice that the world revolves around what you make and no one else could possibly make more. sm
Marla in So. California pays 11 cpl for a 55 ccl, Oracle pays 9-1/2 cpl, MDI-MD 11 cpl, JLG 10 cpl for gross line, etc.
Of course, these are rates negotiated and paid to qualified MTs.
When I see mistakes I repeatedly make, I make a quickcorrect for it (sm)
for example if I type we plant o instead of "plan to" I have a quick corrct so that if I type plant o, it replaces it with plan to, etc. It is hard - I was with the same company for 8 years. I do not work for anyone with an accuracy requirement though.
When you make the copay, make them give you a sm
receipt for the amount you pay them. I know they don't like to do this because it takes time, but if you are really stern and insist on a receipt they have to give you one. Then, the next time you get billed for something you already paid, tell them to look for their copy of the receipt and let THEM do the work.
Yes, unfortunately you do have to make a pest of yourself to make it work, but.....
as the years went by that is why I stayed away from those type of companies. BTW, Noni is a fabulous product, I absolutely do not care for the "marketing techniques" they use. One of the facts of this type of industry is you cannot just recruit to make it, you have to retail. Ever since I "overhauled" my techniques and system...I never had to ask another person to some on board again. Well, nuf for now. Take care and have a blessed week!!
lol cut myself off. Anyway, I'll make close to what I used to make with MQ,
ddd
You can't make things worse and could make things better.
The skinny woman may be ill. The guy might not know the dog is a nuisance. Who knows? Maybe it is not as forbidding as it seems and maybe they just need to be asked in a nice way.
What do you make.........?????
Just once, I would like to see some sympathy/empathy on this board instead of arguing. Where are your feelings??????
Make sure
you get $ offer in writing with Transolutions BEFORE you start. AFTER you start they don't remember what they offered you and at that point you are stuck. Benefits are VERY good!
Otherwise, QA has gotten very difficult!. Their platform is VERY, VERY, VERY old - it stinks! And good luck getting a response to questions from anyone in the office!
You might want to keep looking.
YW :) Yup, they sure can make you want to...
... sometimes, that's for sure.
Hang in there 
Make that four.
I've worked for a couple of large nationals. The folks at Amphion are RESPONSIVE and positive. They'll go out of their way to get things done for you (even on a holiday). Very down to earth and appreciative of the people who generate revenue.
And nope, I'm not management, just impressed because I've been management and know that what they're doing works.
You make no
This all began from "no whining" attacking a newbie on here for spelling a word incorrectly. I am sorry, but we all "started" this profession at one time and there is LOTS to be learned, and the English language is ONLY THE BEGINNING! That poor soul that was attacked hasn't returned! Now, you tell me, is that fair?
also,make sure they
know how the other account is counting their "lines" and make them aware that what sounds like a good deal, may, indeed, be costing them more. Good luck to you.
I think I can make your day
I'm presuming that their template is stationery ...
1. Pull the template to the screen.
2. Place a left margin where you want it. The little "L" appears on the ruler.
3. Look at your ruler and you'll see one triangle on top of the other and a box underneath the bottom triangle.
4. Put your cursor on the box, hold down the left mouse button, and drag it to where your margin is (you said 1.75" or 2").
5. Release the mouse button.
You should now be able to type away and nothing will write over what's down the left side of the page.
If this doesn't work, then I think a table is in order, and I can show you how to create one that is visible on the screen but invisible when you print.
Make way more now as an IC of course. nm

Hmm...will it make you really
Angry if I let you know that in Canada we spell it COLOUR, GREY, NEIGHBOUR, etc... I really was not saying whether one should spell it a certain way or not. In fact, since I have lived here I do spell it the American way. My observation was simply that there are plenty of countries that spell it cheque. I cannot believe some of the comments that have been made. I don't often post here as people do seem to be rude sometimes, and I am not likely to do so again.
I want to make that much $$$
HOW?????? are you making that much money? I type 80 to 100 wpm (depends on how I'm feeling any given day), and I am only making MAYBE $32 to $34K per year. I want to make the big bucks. I am good at what I do. I have a word Expander and all kinds of shortcuts. My clients love my work. But I want to know how you all are making that kind of money. Please tell me your secrets.
The only way they will make any $$ is if they
sucker other people into signing up. It is a multi-level marketing thing. Unless they are good sales people and they sign up people who are good sales people it is a waste of time.
IMO QA should make MORE than
and no, I'm not in QA, but seems to me that they have to know and/or understand what the MT doesn't in order to do their jobs, so why don't they make more? They should be hourly, but as I said, just in my opinion.
make your own job
Even owners don't get to work that schedule/hours with that pay So guess you will have to "make" your own job? To pay you what you want in an 8 hour shift, you would still need to produce 2000 lines to bill out to the client so we could have the money to pay you, that is why we do cpl. Like I said, everyone would love that schedule/hours and pay. When you find it, beam up Scotty and let me join you.
Wow, how do you all make that much?
I work about 5 hours a day, five days a week, and I am lucky if I make $1000 a month 
Make that DH, please.
:+
Yes but how much do you make?
All of those cushy things are great, but the pay is so bad working at home. I will be making 20 dollars and hour plus benefits plus many many days off, paid holidays, great insurance. I can't make 20 dollars an hour working at home. Do most people? How much an hour do people make working at home and how many hours do you put in?
you just have to make it one of your sm
many priorities. I just started 3 mos ago and have finally decided that it is important to my health, so I have to make time to exercise. Even getting up and doing a bunch of jumping jacks once per hour is better than nothing, but if you can take 30 minutes to walk or do yoga or run or whatever, it will be a good thing for you and might even increase your productivity!
I think they probably look to make sure....
that the company is not paying $1.00 per line and we missed it!
Make a Wish (sm)
 If you could choose between being paid by the hour versus being paid by the line, which would you choose? Why? And how much either method? Just dream a little bit--nothing outrageous, what do you think would be fair to both sides.
