Depending on the hospital and specific position...CindiRI...sm
it can be actually great working in-hospital...I have done an equal amount of both, and I would be still be working in house if it were not that one of my children has been diagnosed with a disability and I need to stay close to home....here in New England, the experienced pay is in $19.64 and up per hour; if the position is NOT per diem, meaning you have a regular shift and are considered a regular employee, you just come in for your own hours (at the time I left I was working evenings and my husband was staying with 3 children), my hours were Tues, Wed., Thurs., & Sat., 4pm to 11pm, except for Sat, 6am to 2pm. Medical, dental, vision, life, long-term disability, 401k, 403 annuity, 2 weeks PTO first year and then it accrued, CMT and continuing ed reimbursement and scholarships, health club, and it was great to get to know all your doctors after a time, get really fast and productive on them, even the ESLs....it all was great EXCEPT for office politics, always plenty of that, but there were some great girls (and guys!) who became friends. It is all individual to the MT and to the specific hospital! Best of luck, e-mail me anytime if you just want to talk or question, okay?? :->
I use melatonin too,
Comes in handy when my husband is super tired and turns into the human chainsaw of snoring!
Melatonin on the News
I'm really glad that melatonin is working for you. However, there was something on the news last night that studies have shown that melatonin is of no use in treating insomnia.
But, whatever works for you.....that's great. 
Melatonin can be useful and safe for some ... BUT
there can be side effects. I used it several years ago to help with sleep problems and it did help, and I thought I'd finally licked the problem. Unfortunately, I began to suffer from depression, which I had never experienced before. Since the Melatonin was the only change I had made before the depression, I stopped it, and the depression subsided. I later learned that depression can be a side effect of using melatonin for some people. I hope this is not the case for you and that you are able to continue to enjoy the sleep benefits of melatonin. However, if you find yourself becoming depressed, consider that the melatonin might be the cause.
Try melatonin over-the-counter in your vitamin section.
Doctors I worked with got me hooked on it. They said they used it themselves. Doctors know the side effects of chemical drugs and steer away from them when it comes to taking drugs. Anyway do a search on Google about melatonin. It may work for you and it really has no side effects for me, like the grogginess prescription drugs give you the morning after you take a pill to sleep.
I use melatonin, Benadryl and white noise (sm)
I have a very tough time with insomnia. I take 6 mg of melatonin and 25 mg of Benadryl an hour before I want to go to sleep and run a fan every night. Sometimes I get six straight hours of sleep and on those nights I consider myself lucky! If I get up at night to use the restroom I don't turn on the lights so that I can get back to sleep more easily. FYI I have been taking the melatonin and Benadryl for about a year, recently had lab work done and my LFTs were good.
Does it say anything about Java ?
xx
oops..here it is..not enough JAVA yet!!..sm
http://www.msm-hgh.com/
Where can I download Java
Do you happen to know where I can get Java?
Java.com.......widely used..
xx
on the Dell, my Java sun is checked too...sm
but I do not get the links on the left on it......both computer are XP also so I do not understand why I can see links on one but not on the other
They told me to delete Java
Acutally they told me to delete Java from my computer before even downloading and installing VPN. Are you saying that I need Java to make a webpage open after connecting to the VPN?
Valerian root or melatonin supplements from the health food store might help. nm
s
Duh..just realizing that you are posting again! More java needed. :) nm
s
LOL! Let me just get my steamin' cuppa java to throw!
Seriously, though, H, you are so right. My family were all healthcare support workers (engineering, housekeeping, etc.) and my dad calls hospitals "the shrine of the physician" where all other staff are expected to worship at the altar of their godhood with the VPs and dept. heads expected to lead all the worship services.
Two VPNs I use require Java to open
xx
Downloading Java didn't work
So I deleted it again like they told me to do in the beginning. Any other thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks
you can be Sam-E solo and it is great with depression/mood swings. valerian root and/or melatonin b

going strong.
reunited after high school at a local night club. I married a former classmate 18 years ago.
The BBB is not as strong as some like to believe
Companies join it if they wish - it is not a requirement - if you are a member and someone complains then they might get involved if it is something they can do - but I seriously doubt they would get involved in $$$ issues. As far as I know - if your business is a member they make record of the complaint and whether or not the issue was resolved..... I would file a claim in Small Claims Court for the amount owed you by this company.
How strong is your ESL experience?
At least, in my area. But ESL? I don't care for ESL and I know I could not type ESL day in and day out. Something to think about??!
Be strong, but be careful. sm
He sounds like the type that knows better than to come to your house and violate a protection order, but you never, ever know and it's still early yet. Keep your doors locked.
My ex was "pre-protection order" (i.e. many years back) and he got through the basement window and was sitting at my kitchen table in the pitch dark. I can still hear him sneer, "Did you have fun with your boyfriend?"
I was grocery shopping and my mother was watching the kids. I got lucky because he really didn't want to kill me, just control me.
He finally gave up on me when I found and eventually married a great guy that doesn't expect me to fold towels in high heels and "poofy hair".
Sad part of that story is that he also disowned his own kids. But, after 15 years, the kids have realized that it was neither my fault or theirs. Their "father" lives with me. Their "donor dad" is living 5 miles away, a recluse, and drinking himself to death.
I send him a case of vodka on his birthday every year. Just kidding! 
Keep strong. You can do this. Now, about the satellite,
you can move it with you. If you move to a place where it isn't available, you're out of the contract easily. My son actually moved to a place where when they tried to set the satellite they found that the neighbor's trees were an obstruction and you're obviously not going to ask a new neighbor to cut down or even into trees, so they let him off the hook, no problem. The phone company should not be a problem as long as you're moving, again you can just move it with you, unless you're moving a long distance and then you'll just cancel this one and get another wherever you move to.
I do think you need to keep this in perspective with your kids. They are losing their daddy (almost like he died to them) whether they feel good about it right now or not. It really couldn't hurt for all of you to get into counseling. Eventually it will be a problem for your kids when they "miss daddy" and they "forget" (and they will since they are of young age) how bad things were when you were together. Of course, this is JMO and others might see things differently.
You can do it, we'll all pulling for you and saying prayers for you and your children.
Stay strong!!
I started my son in preschool and he got so sick, that I decided to keep him home with me. I've been a Transcriptionist since before he was born and I figure I could teach him myself. I sent to the local educational store and got a few things. This worked out fine for the both of us. He became healthy and stayed healthy. I know you stated you didn't think you could do this but it's not that hard. On the other hand, when my son did start school I kept a close eye on his teachers. There was one teacher where him and her just didn't get along. He would come home totally unhappy almost every day of the week. I gave it about three weeks, then decided I would get him changed to another teacher. This worked perfectly. He is now in 4th grade and has been getting either honor roll or principal's honor roll every since. You are the master of your child's future, not the teachers. They are human and a few of them will not click with your child. I taught my son until he could start kindergarten. When he started kindergarten, on his first day he came home and stated "Mom I knew all the work in school. I did it all and it was easy." That was my shinning moment in life. Always remember you are the mother of your daughter and you have to make decisions for her, even though some people will tell you different. Your child's education is in your hands, not the teacher's. Now days we have too many children growing up too fast, especially the girls. She sounds like a real sweet child and is doing appropriate things for her age. One more note, every though you don't think you can teach her, you can. It is so much easier than you think. Even if you just get something for her to write her ABC's and her name would be a real plus. You can search online for things to give your daughter to do at home in her spare time. If she gets tired easily when writing then you can help her by giving her extra at home, just 30 minutes or less everyday to do. She will do just fine and will show that teacher one day that not only was she ready for school but look how far she has gone. STAY STRONG MOM, MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN THERE AND SURVIVED. YOU WILL TOO! Hugs to the both of you!!
yep!! VERY strong in numbers!!! nm
Yuban. Strong! nm

but mine is 12 years old and still going strong.

Yeah I did. 13 years and going strong. :)
We are so proud of you...now STAY STRONG!!!
He will be trying to worm his way back into the household. Be firm, be strong! Set a time limit (in your mind, but to him also should he start begging) that you WILL BE SEPARATED FOR A SET AMOUNT OF TIME no matter how much he begs or how much you might start to miss him. Maybe 6 months or thereabouts. By that time, I think you will be SOOOoo glad you booted him out!
Please let your community's support system know you need a little help. Get the word out that you need a car. I'll bet a car shows up! Probably not a real spiffy car, but transportation nonetheless! Let your neighbors (if you have any)know what the situation is so they can be on the lookout for him and watch over you.
Please accept help and counseling from whatever community support groups there are to help bolster you resolve!!! If you have a neighborhood patrol (depending on your area...here, we have senior citizens that patrol neighborhoods in police cars, checking homes for people on vacation, etc) have them swing by the house often just to make a statement that someone is watching out for you. Even the police might do this if you are not out in the boonies. BEST OF LUCK TO YOU AND KEEP US POSTED.
You just stay strong, he will try to wear you out.

STAY STRONG, YOU ARE WOMAN.

people just have strong emotions on it...it seems to be
a healthy discussion to me, albeit controversial...
5 years and still going strong, I have a back up one though- sm
that I use for travel, that is about 4 years old but only gets used about 20 days out of a year if that. That one gets abused a bit and still works fine though.
The answer to a strong business...
Your comments regarding "happy" and "unhappy" MTs are chilling. When I, as an MT, see my physician I always ask for a copy of my chart note just to make sure that everything is "in order." About 10 years ago, I found on one of my physician's dictation, just by accident mind you, that my weight was listed as 417 pounds; I weighed 135 pounds. While that may seen insignificant, it was nonetheless an error!
You are coming across as being very strong armed
They are employees and they cannot just go in there and strong arm their way in and make demands. They can sit and talk with them and tell them what they would like but if they accept the job as it is, that is what they took and must work with. She never said, but if they are doing EMR's some of those programs will not work or read some of the word based commands or whatever you want to call them. I have worked on three programs, two were semi compatible with Word and the other definitely not. Could not cut and paste into it. But I knew what I was getting into and if I did not like it, there was the door and I could leave. Sounds to me as though the doctors have found out that they do not have time to do the charting and want them to catch them up. They did not write the program to be transcription friendly probably. Again, I agree that they should have some of these tools but you are coming across as though you are pounding your fist and saying, just do this, this and this and it is the company's equipment and not theirs. Sorry if I took you wrong but that is what I hear. She does not have to take the job.
probably heavy rains and strong winds
Your about the distance from the coast as I was in MS with Katrina and there was damage as far as 300 miles into MS..
Elliotts voice is not strong - Katherine is
inconsistent and forgets words - So, I guess that leaves Taylor. He certainly would be a "different" kind of winner.
Percocet is one form of OxyContin - just not as strong
I've been on these for five years now and don't look forward to the pain again, but I have got to get my head cleared.
My cure: Strong coffe with a No-Doz chaser.

They also hate us because we cannot stop telling them how rich and strong we are.

You are asking for trouble. Your marriage must come first as the foundation for a strong family. nm

Encouragement for hard times - are you going to finish strong? sm
http://www.maniacworld.com/are-you-going-to-finish-strong.html This is a very encouraging video.
I do too, sometimes $50-60, depending on the day! nm

Depending on where you are sm
Experienced radiology MTs can be hard to find. I work for a local MTSO as a rad MT and my workload recently doubled so we have been looking for someone part-time to help with the extra work. It has been very difficult, and we are searching nationally, not just locally.
So I would say if you have someone lined up to do the work, go for it. Otherwise test the waters and see how many resumes or applications you get and how much experience those who are applying actually have before making a decision like this.
Just my 2 cents.
Oh, and I have been paid both by the report and by the line. I much prefer getting paid by the line.
Does the same to me depending...
on what kind of sound file I'm opening. Other times it doesn't do it, but sometimes it does because it's going through some conversion process. I think it might have something to do with a codec but would like to know how to avoid it as well.
I do anywhere from 20 to 30, depending on
the dictator and type of report.
Actually you need to use lacquer thinner - but be careful it has strong fumes - see inside
Pour it on generously and wear rubber gloves and watch your eyes. It will get most anything up, but might take the color too!
Some people are sensitive or allergic to it.
Yep. Sure is common. If I exercise regularly, the palps go away. Strong heart
s
Depending on the company....sm
you would probably finding yourself typing as much or more than in a MT role. With the companies I've supervised with, there were not only the generalized e-mails to the MTs but also those answering questions from clients as well as employees. I currently receive 150-200 e-mails a day alone to respond to, plus do a lot of other typing with the various aspects of the job.
I suggest you talk with the HR department at the company you work with to see if there is a position you can apply for that would be less typing.
Actually, you can get one for about $500+ depending on the purse.
