DSL - distance from office or switch.
My hubby is retired from the phone company.  DSL services don't have anything to do with distance from the office/switch.  Each community has a "box," usually green, on the side of the road, normally at an intersection, where phone services for that area are handled.  If the equipment in the box is not fiberoptic compatible or old technology, you can't get DSL in the area served by that box.  Once enough people ask for DSL so that it is "cost effective" in that area, you get new equipment installed and that area gets DSL.

Have most people had good luck with their MQ office closing and moving to the regional office. Have
things gotten better or worse for you.
Yes, I lost mine. I upgraded the Office 2000 package to Office 2003. sm
I have over 2000 autocorrect entries and lost them all as well as my supplemental dictionary for my Stedman's spellcheck. Lots of grief!

Maybe you will be lucky and not lose anything. Good luck to you.
Might be able to rent one from an office supply or office machine repair shop

I know a director looking for MTs in central FL
She's an ex-boss who wanted me to work for them but I'm out of state. The facility requires the MTs to be in-state and wouldn't budge on that. She wants to depend on outside services/off-shoring as little as possible and hopefully not at all. Again, another I've found who is nauseated by the whole thing - do I see a hopeful trend? Cardiology background is necessary. Want me to check particulars?

Are they located in Central CA?
I think this place might be local for me.
Office politics. That is why I enjoy working at home. In the office,
people are in other people business. Just mind your own business.

I'm in East Central Indiana and
have Comcast.  When we first had it, it was down all the time.  It turned out to be a faulty modem, which they had supplied.  Once they changed that out, they have been incredibly reliable.  It is very, very rare that they are down, and if they are it is usually less than an hour.

desktop calendar Cozi Central
Check out Cozi Central on the web. I LOVE IT! You use a different color for each family member, so you can see everyone's schedule at once. Or you can select one person's schedule. You can schedule a year in advance, if you want. There's a web version and a PC version. The web version can be accessed from any computer anywhere you go. Cozi Central gave me my life back! It's so easy!
Any info on CTS central trans. serv.??

Can't find anything in archives.  You have to reveal so much with these companies so would like to know about your experiences with them.


Thanks.


Can anyone suggest an office in MQ that is not run like this Amherst office. They are absolutely
pathetic. I wonder how many other MTs are in that office in the same situation.
Just DQS from my office was transferred and the rest are getting on DQS before the office closes.

Wow! I'm in North Central Florida. Last month's electric bill was $165. sm
I have electric everything and keep the thermostat set at 73. Some folks here with a different electric company have had bills triple to quadruple their normal. You may want to do some investigating.
This heat is unbearable in central Calif. Air quality is bad. I have never felt so unhealthy.
Over 100 degrees for 30 out of 35 days, the other days were 98 or 99. The air is so bad here in this pocket of the country that people are told to stay indoors. I sit for hours typing and then feel like a slug. Drinking gatorade for hydration and know it is high in sodium but am evaporating here, taking two showers a day as there is a constant dust cloud (particulates ugh).

I want to move but doing it alone at the age I am is a daunting task. What if I end up some place that is just as bad? The expense would make it impossible to relocate again. Wish I were rich...

Distance is a big plus

Hi,


You have a lot of advice here, but I'll add my 2 cents.  When I left, I found that distance played a very big role.  Make that the LAST time I left. 


I scrounged, scraped and borrowed just enough to get away.  My family had property 450 miles away and that is where I headed with my 2-year-old son.  The distance kept me from running back during weak moments and kept him from getting to me immediately during a mad spell and becasue of the time and money issue to make the trip, he didn't bother.


My point being, the distance really helped in my situation.  If it is at all possible to get close to your family and friends, then the distance will help, and the support of those who love you being close will be a big help. 


Get whatever assistance is available and file for custody right away.  Because my ex didn't even show up to fight, I didn't need a lawyer or anything for that part.  I just went to court myself.  There were juvenile advocates there that helped me. 


Once you are gone for and get through the first bit, you will wonder why you didn't do it long ago.  You and your kids will be better off - believe that with all of your heart. 


Good luck and God Bless!

Does anyone know of a good unlimited minutes long distance company?
