In Reply to: U were vindicated, fax all to Admin. If no proof - to fax, maybe IC was right. Just fax proof.

I hope the Admin. does let me know what they need. Like I said before, I just need to know what all they need.  I have it.

    mL is inappropriate for solid
    measurements for tissue specimens, etc., so either cc or cubic centimeters is appropriate. Ask any pathologist.
    I have already offered some solid

    74K solid year income + MT work
    I saw in the Education Website a 74K package + some MT work that could get you into 90K a year after taxes. Is it worth it?
    You can do it but you have to be determined, have a solid office background helps, obviously an - sm
    interest in the field helps too.  You don't get a lot of sleep when you are trying to work with kids at home.  I started this 3 years ago when my kids were 2 and 3, I basically only worked when they napped and at night after they went to bed.  I only worked part-time too, but for the 1st 10 months I had 3 PT jobs, so I was basically FT and obviously very tired.  But I was trying to get as much experience and exposure as possible. It has paid off for me.  I generally work 2 jobs at once as I don't like having all my eggs in one basket (I need a min. monthly income of $1K) though right now I am only doing one PT, about 3000-4000 lines every 2 weeks.  I am back to working nights and early morning now though at the current time. But a strong office background helps a lot, discipline, and determination.  My strong office and lab background helped a lot for me to make the transition to working at home and also I was used to working unsupervised.  You tend to get thrown to the wolves doing this so you better be able to land on your feet quick.  CareerStep is supposed to be a very good school though, I know a few people who did it and were hired straight away, granted that was 3 years ago and the work is a lot harder now at least with the nationals.  I prefer the small MTSO, generally a better grade of work and people. Good Luck.
    Fed-ex ground
    Get you a load of bubble wrap and wrap it good and then call Fed-ex. They will come to most places and pick it up. Be sure you insure it.
    Solid company, nice owners, LOTS of ESLs nm

    I stand my ground. sm
    There are too many other jobs out there to stay you are stuck in this one. I do dare to say this because I know this.

    Think about it. Would you stay in a "crappy" marriage because there are no other guys out there? Gimme a break.

    But, hey, if I'm over the line (as you said), that's cool. Not like I've never been there before.

    I will say this, however. I like my job. Not LOVE, but like. That's the reason I do it. If I did not, I'd get out. Period.
    just had a big ground hog jump on....sm
    my glass storm door, at my front door.  Just happened to see it happen, and scared me to death.  They are such big ugly, rat on steroid looking creatures!  Now, I've convinced myself that it's rabid and going to get me if I step outside.  News last night said they had 4 dogs found with rabies in a city about 15-20 miles from us, so...??  I just think it is so strange that it jumped on my door.  Yuck!
    My feet don't touch the ground so I
    When I sit in my chair, my feet don't even touch the ground, because I need my chair height to be such that I am not looking up at the screen.

    I have big platform sandals that I use. They are great. One on each foot. You can move your feet around, but they are nice and high from the ground, like a movable foot stool.

    hire people with solid longstanding work background with good references; like myself

    Here's the dealio... MTs are expected to be able to hit the ground running.
    We work from home.  There is no training curve.  That's just the way it is in the MT industry.  If you want to work from home, you have to know what you're doing.  If it takes you longer than three days to get off full QA, then you belong in an office somewhere getting training from a mentor who has the time and money to train you.  Working from home is all about the bottom line -- the MTs and the MTSOs.  This is career field you've chosen, so get with the program.  Sharpen your skills and quit expecting someone to hold your hand.
    Cold, 28 degrees, a little snow on the ground, overcast.
    Boring winter day. Not enough snow to do anything fun, just enough to make us all miserable.
    I need a ground line if cable goes out so does your phone and if you contact MCI they will give you
    with long distance costing 07. cents a minute if you have to. Just use your long distance after 9 pm using ur cell which is free and on weekends. This MCI plan is 26. & taxes about 28. a month. This way MCI gives u the ability to call long distance during the week if you absolutely have to but for .07 cents a minute. Better to have a phone than no phone. Just a thought!
