SINCE 1965
OK, so now I really feel old. I started with a manual typewriter and used a tape recorder, forward, stop, reverse, forward, stop, reverse. Oh my, how long ago that now seems. No foot pedal, no headset, no electricity, just sat at the kitchen table (I worked this part time at home and full time in an office) and worked half the night.

In retrospect, though, we old timers really learned our skills and have never forgotten them.
From 1965 to 1972. sm
It probably has been Atlanta-fied. I haven't been back in a long time. I was young and probably would have been happy anywhere. Sorry to hear that you are unhappy there. It used to be a nice city, at least in my opinion.
I learned in a hospital in 1965 (sm)

Believe it or not, there was no spell check back then, no QA - just a supervisor who hired me because I spelled "toxicology" right.  It was the only medical word in the test.  I'm not kidding.  I "learned as I went."  I have been doing this now for 30+ years.  My work very rarely has medical spelling errors in it now.  These newbies nowadays really have it pretty easy, IMO, what with autocorrect and all.  We didn't even have shorthand, or anything like that.  (I'm 59)


1965 Ford Mustang and a 1977 Chevy corvette
along with the 1997 Intrepid. The Stang is mine and the vette is hubby's. He got them real cheap (under $4000.00 for both) and fixed them up.
