There are some degrees that are great, but will require a Master's or higher to make you rise above the rest. You also need internships and other experiences to help.
And there are others that are definitely not "worthless" (though I don't think ANY degree is worthless), including nursing, physical therapy, and others. You're pretty much assured of a great job with those.

Don't know where my interior message went, but any call is traceable - sm
I was being harassed years ago by a "boyfriend wannabe" so I used the *57 when he made his crank calls....he eventually gave up after I started unplugging the phone at night (it would just ring and ring to him, but I, of course, would not know about it. There have to be enough *57s though to be looked into for them to take action though, at least that is what they told me (this was 15 years ago though...things have changed a bit since then). Good luck.
How about interior wallpapering and painting? People charge big bucks for that. nm

Am I the only one hooked on this show??? I was so glad to see Alice stay in the competition last night. I was sad to see Tym go, but glad that David got to stay. Wonder who will win??

Anyone else vote online or text message for one of these kids? Just curious as to which one you voted for....my vote was for David. Alice's designs did nothing for me, and she had a somewhat fake affect. Any other opinions?
That's good to know...do they help design brochures too?? nm

Brian, you really should design and patent something because
there are a ton of us out there with leg swelling over the years. Bet you could make a fortune.

Master's in psychology.
Is it just me, or do the posters who are claiming to have master's degrees in psychology seem to be the ones who are completely confused, angry, and irrational? It seems that they are the ones most in need of psychoanalysis. Heaven help anyone who actually who actually tries to get help from these nut jobs! By the way, I assume nut job is politically incorrect, but I don't don't give a flying...
Psychology Transcription?
Hey all,
I am trying to find out how to get into psychology transcription as a somewhat new MT. I originally had started out going to school as a psych major, but I wasn't sure it was what I wanted to do. So instead of going to school for 8 years and deciding I hated it, I stopped. I then went back to school for a year to become an MT, because I missed being around the healthcare scene, but I have never quite been able to muster up the courage to become a nurse or other hands-on staff member. I have now decided that although I enjoy being an MT, I also want to finish my psych degree.
Anyways, I would love to get into transcribing for a psychologist. Does anyone know if that is possible for a new MT or do they usually look for seasoned MTs? Would I be better off trying to work for a local psychologist or are there MTSOs that cater specifically to them?
Any info is appreciated. Thanks!
There must be a reason or many why you left your graphic design job after being at it for so long..s
and why you chose to go into MT. Actually 5 years may not be long enough to have the experience needed to make as much money as you can or maybe the MT company you work for may not be the best fit for you. With all your other variables (gas, comute, disabled husband who likes you to be home) you may want to reconsider where you are with your current MT job and try to find ways to be more productive (like more experience, word expander, different company, different work type, working for a specified period and then taking a break, etc). I have been an MT for 30 years and while it has its pros and cons, for me the pros outweigh the cons. You will just have to decide what works best for you. Good luck in whatever you decide.
psychology terms and tests
anyone know of a good website to get some basic psych. terms, tests, etc? I am soon to start a new psych account, and have done very few psych reports of any kind....thanks for any input!
Bonus Psychology from MTSO POV
On the one hand, two part-time no benefit people would be cheaper in some ways. Plus they could tag-team a work schedule for greater coverage ability if they're both working 24 hours/week because that would add up to 6-7 days per week coverage instead of 5.
On the other hand, one dependable full-time busting her rump to get 350 LPH for a bonus paid in peanuts (most likely) is fewer headaches for scheduling - just one person to call off instead of two, just one person to need every Saturday off instead of two, plus the pleasure of watching that one person work like a fiend in order to try to make that quota.
Throw in a few No-Job-Available days for the one person, such that she can't make her bonus quota, and you've got yourself a winner there!
We could design a "Speak and Spell" for MTs -- "The PA says ... AM-LOPE-A-DEEN..." LOL n

Kids are grown and gone and I no longer need to be home all day. The cats don't need as much supervision as the kids did.
