Any rose gardeners out there? Good roses that are disease proof and smell good?
I heard good things about Knockout Rose but they don't smell too much like traditional rose. Supposedly blooms all season.

Agree with other poster.. good price..good service
I definitely think they are one of the best out there. We also have been talked through issues over the phone and also had a warranty in which they came out and fixed it right at our home. My only complaint..and I am sorry for saying this.. but... when you call their customer service 9 out of 10 times...you get someone who barely speaks English and I just hate that. I think that is true of a lot of customer support centers these days, ironically they are rarely American anymore. I am not prejudice at all. I just find it frustrating to call in for help and the help you get barely understands you and you do not understand them, thus making the experience very frustrating..
Expensive is right -- around $300 per credit hour! But they do have a good rep. Good luck! nm
I believe Pilates is good for shaping and strength, but you still need some cardio for good fat

Good for you. Sounds very interesting and a good chance of pace - sm
but I live in the northeast and not much need for that where I live. I also live in a small town so that limits my options. I have spent the last couple of years as a substitute teacher to supplement my MT job and just completed 4-1/2 months as a long term sub which I enjoyed and was a change of pace from MT. The only problem is as a sub or ed tech you only get paid during the school year so I would have to keep my MT job for summers and school vacations. With the way things are going in the MT world I hate to rely solely on that. I don't want to find myself without any job whatsoever.
Thanks for all the responses.
8 is NOT good if never going any higher - good to get the rust out in the short term though

Is the dictation quality good, are the dictators good, are you
a newbie and you still have to look up lots of words .... The very first day I typed, with absolutely no education way back when, when you didn't have to have a degree/certificate or previous experience, I typed 665 lines. This was without an expander and I was not a fast typist. I can do 1000 lines in about 4 hours now on average.
LOL! Well, good! I've done ONE good thing today, then. NM

You have a good, realistic attitude about it. Good luck to you. nm

I am sure MQ will change their policies now because of the actions you took. Congrats.
Yep, a good MTSO will get rid of the crappy doctor, not the good MT...sm
unfortunately, there aren't many MTSOs out there who will confront a poor dictator and nip it in the bud to begin with.
In the old days we used to do this all the time. A doctor was put on report and told to shape up and if he didn't he would either be charged more because they had to pay an MT more to do his lousy dictation, or he was always given the option to do his own reports if he wouldn't comply.
Believe it or not, almost every physician my former company did this to straightened up their act became good dictators and found that it was actually less stressful and less time consuming for them too!!
The MTSOs just don't have the guts to do this anymore... and they should. I can make more money on good dictators with a lower line rate than crappy dictators at a higher rate, and would rather have the better dictators and lower rate than the other... it's a win-win for both the MT and MTSO because the MT is making more money per hour and the MTSO gets to pay less for her MTs and make a better profit. I can't believe the MTSOs haven't figured this one out.
This is not a good choice. There are too many good schools
that have proven their worth. Andrews, MTEC and even Career Step, but I would not choose a school that has spammed the internet in every crack there is as the one you have mentioned. Find some graduates and see what they have to say. Go to mtchat.com and do a search of this school.
Thank you too! A good laugh is a good thing.
I really wish you good health and good luck!
I know that what you are doing is a major undertaking. Just remember that this is what you want and that you CAN do it! It won't be easy by any stretch of the imagination, but once you have accomplished it, you will truly know what you are capable of. I think you are very brave. Please know that all of us are pulling for you and are here to help you if you need it. Go to the hospital if you are feeling at all unsure or unstable. Don't give up because the reward will be great. Please let us know how you are doing.
Pulling for you!
good for you; you'll get more from it, with good socialization,

Very good...very good answer. Right on the money! (nm)

The good old days were not so good for me. sm
Transcribing from tapes on a Selectric typewriter with 3 or 4 carbons and white out, no spellcheck, no expansion program, no internet for research.
I agree! To be a good MT we must take the good with the bad!
It sometimes takes longer to learn ESL docs and is a pain in the butt, but all that does not kill us makes us stronger!! I don't love doing ESL docs by any means, but if I want a job - I need to do what my employer asks of me. Take the good and bad - or find a new job! I applaud you for working with your MTs, but you really shouldn't have to! I have only been an MT for two years and I cannot imagine telling my boss that I am not willing to learn something. How rude!
Oh, that's good! Cruel, but good! LOL!

Good for you. Good enough reasons for me, too!

Happy Hanukkah/Chanukah...nm

Happy Hanukkah to all the Jewish MTs out there! nm

I don't celebrate and/or believe in Kwanza, Hanukkah, Ramadan, etc.
just not tolerate enough to let "a minority" stop me from celebrating my religious holidays!
Only Kwanzaa and Hanukkah are allowed to be acknowledged in schools anymore
I've seen posters on this board state that their kids have "holiday pageants" at school talking about every culture but those of European descent. I have no problem with other cultures, but when our own country is clearly trying to leave one out - especially the culture of the founding fathers - that is offensive and preferential special treatment for SOME.
By the way, I have no religious affiliation and believe in no higher power, but I know what culture this country was based upon and founded by. If Christianity doesn't offend me, why would it offend anyone else?
What's offensive is the blatant disregard and attempt at ERASING the culture that the majority of this country was raised with.
Merry Christmas!
Best Wishes
I wish you and your son all the best in the world and I am sure you will make the right choice and giving your son the right to make choices for himself is the right thing. To many parents today live through their children and not for their children.
My son wanted to do this and I agreed to it. Even though it is very time consuming, but at the same time it is full of rewards.
God Bless and Best of Luck
Thanks to everyone for the well wishes!

Best wishes to you, too! (nm)

I feel like I should point out that (in the fairness of all) the God messages should be on the relgious board, it is a little presumptious to think we all believe in God.
That said, best of luck.
I don't get it. Why do you just smile and tell
No offense, but we teach people how to treat us. Your idea of getting a sitter was a good one. After all, if it's just work he needs to do, he should be glad someone will be there to watch the kids. Of course, you know that's not the problem, but it's fun to make HIM admit to it, isn't it?
You've got your work cut out for you.
We all need to smile. sm
I just quit a job. From the first email, I could tell this person was not nice. I tried to make it work, but it didn't, so I'm moving on.
What I don't get is why the attitude? No one is so privileged in this business that they can afford to be nasty. The same way you come up may be the same way you go down, so smile along the way. It shows even in the emails. Smile! Makes the day go by more pleasantly.
Thanks for the feedback and well wishes
I am preapproved for a loan but the payments scare me. I've never owned a home on my own before. I'm also cashing in my small 401k to use for it. I'm young yet, under 35, and know that that is not the smartest of ideas, but my NOT-darling, boyfriend, father of my youngest (2) (have 3 total) is prone to violent behavior. I've put up with his rantings for 3 years, NOT anymore. If I can just get through the next couple weeks .......the house is empty.....so hoping if things go okay, I can move in, maybe before closing. PRAY for me!
No problem! Best wishes!!
:-)
Can you believe it? Time sure does fly! Thank you all for the well wishes!
We're not planning to go anywhere anytime soon!
Best wishes to you on that plan, but
I have to admit that I was (and still am) an RN first. With all of its difficulties, I have to admit that I would prefer to be an MT than return to that extremely stressful situation of RN bedside nurse. The one good thing that I can say with regards to nursing is that the pay seems to be really good, though, and it does not seem difficult for a new grad to find a good niche in which to begin working. One piece of advice that I give is to work towards a minimum of a Bachelor's degree and possibly move on towards a Masters degree or even a PHD, before you are 50. Find a job that you can continue to do until older age, when your body may no longer be up to the physical stress required for direct patient care (especially when it includes lifting, turning the patient, etc.) Get into a specialty where you can use your brain more than your muscles. If you are not already doing so, get into an exercise program and take good care of your musculoskeletal system. If I were not almost geriatric, I would take my own advice. My big mistake was starting out with an Associate Degree and not continuing my nursing education. Believe it or not, I cannot even get a job in a doctor's office, as they prefer LPNs. I even called my state board of nursing and asked if I could get an LPN license by just being an RN and taking the LPN exam. They told me that I would have to complete an LPN training program first, which I am not inclined to do. I know it was a strange question to ask them, but I had to ask...Best to you..
