my husband passed away in january. I need the promotion or I have to get a second job and I thought to work at home would be good because I still have a 15 year old at home. Oh well, I was trying to get prepared, but God will provide. I'm sure it will all work out. The hospital I work for has been very good to me so I count my blessings there. Thanks!

I just said I DON'T have the extra cash.
However, I'm not going to shop there because what comes around, goes around. If I don't support the other small businesses in my area, they won't support my business or my husband's business.
For extra cash I just started donating blood plasma SM
to BioLife, owned by Baxter. They pay about $50 a week for this (put on debit card). Does anyone else do this, and what other things like this is anyone aware of? It's not as gross as it sounds, just like giving blood, and they separate your plasma from the blood and give you your blood back.
slow periods, seek alternative extra cash? sm
Docs, like us, have busy family lives. I found that after Hannukah and Christmas (or sometimes with a break from family stuff) they "catch up" on dictation. Hopefully, this is what still happens. I have a son who is a professional and he likes to go in on Christmas Eve morning because it's so "slow" that he can get a lot of paperwork done. So hang in. Another aspect of today's world is that docs are carrying laptops now as is my family PCP and they are all doing their own notes. I think it's a "wait and see" thing, the world is changing and hopefully there is a survival tool for us somewhere. We are all being replaced by technology, sadly. Only time will tell. I was told several years ago that I should go into "scoping" which is kind of like editing, etc., you go into public stenographers machine gibberish and make sense out of it, kind of like making sense out of what comes back from India. I was offered this but refused to clean up someone else's "mess." Everyone should be thinking of alternative ways to get by, it's never easy. It's sad, as I have put a lot of time and $$$ into a profession that doesn't appreciate my knowledge. From your posts, Blondie, you have a good heart. I hope things get better for you. Try to have a happy holiday. How did you make out with those dogs you took in? Did the owner take them back or at least pay you? This may be an alternative few extra bucks for you. You seem to be an animal lover and a caring person.I don't live near you, but I would rather leave my Golden with you than some kennels around here. Thus, I do not go away if I can't take my dog. Hope things pick up for you work-wise.
She could probably sell the purse on the street for cash, then use the cash for drugs. nm

Can they do surgery extra fast? What do they do with the extra glove in the pack?

Extra shift or extra work
Has anyone taken on an extra job or shift with a new company for a just a few months to get out of debt or to be able to pay for something that is needed or wanted? I am thinking about taking on another job to get out of a stressful debt situation. I am just afraid I would be going into another stressful situation working more hours with the very busy family schedule I have.
What about my cash flow problem?
She owes me for 2 weeks work.
Good for you!! We are the same as far as paying with cash.
It was (and still is occasionally) hard to be patient and save for what you want instead of using credit, but it is so, so, so worth it!! Nothing like peace of mind and not being "owned" by creditors and employers. Best of luck to you and thanks for sharing.
Is it unheard of to cash in PTO with national?
I have 75 hours of PTO and wonder if the national I am with (starts with an S and ends with an S) would allow me to cash it in? This thought just occurred to me so will call HR when I have time to but just wondered if anyone has done this and is it an unreasonable request.
Thanks
The difference between a refi with cash out and a
home line is there is a variable rate with a home equity line of credit. The refi with cash out finance rate is 4.625% right now.
Ew. My DH listens to Johnny Cash and the Highwaymen.
I tell him it's canner music. I've listened to AC/DC for 25 years, but I listen to a lot of other types of music, too. My kids were surprised because they didn't know I listened to AC/DC and they like it, too. They don't like Johnny Cash or the Highwaymen either. At least AC/DC isn't rap or thrash metal. (Angus rules!) My son's learning to play electric guitar and he likes all those old rock bands.
Unless you work in a bank or at a cash register,
doubt they would do a credit check. I remember telling my employer during my interview about my Ch13, explaining the surgery, the divorce, the agony...she sat there and then said "we don't do credit checks." This was at a major hospital. Background checks only.
The reason I don't tip is because I NEVER have a dime on me. I don't carry cash, ever! I don
debit card and it's been like that for 4 years. I use a check or credit card for EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!
I havent had insurance in many, many years, I pay cash and like SM
the poster below I usually get a 20% discount, but you have to call around to find out who will give it to you. My DD had to have an MRI last year and I got a big discount on that too by calling around.
Originally, insurance was intended for hospitalization, not regular doctor visits. I dont know how it evolved into this monster we have now, but it sure has driven the cost up.
hey if you can afford it and a supervisor's approval means more to you than cash, have at it.
i want the luck of the draw. you think your supervisor is going to pay your bills when she routes crap to you and it takes you twice as long to do a report? all you do is make her look good and she gets a raise.
It's true that if you cash a check, they are no longer liable, but
with direct deposit, we are not given the choice to cash it or deny it. Wonder how that direct deposit affects that choice.
But you have learned nothing. Ever hear of paying cash for what you want, instead of financing?
Buy him a Johnny Cash CD, my kids are singing their hearts out right now to JC.

Hey if you have the cash more power to you. Obviously the rest of the country doesn't.
Everytime I go into a Walmart I see poor folks shopping and I never see poor folks in high-end stores with la-de-dah staff snubbing them. We just can't afford the prices independents need to charge the consumer.
Seems to be getting paid with a cash "card" instead of a check. Done at other types of

I agree -- check, cheque, chex, etc. -- who cares as long as you can cash it? :-) sm
It is rather disappointing to see a bunch of professionals bickering over such a trivial issue.
I keep the minimum amount of cash in the bank. I may sound paranoid but I fully
there to be locked up. The banks are scampering around if you notice. They have written notices that they can raise your interest rate to 28% or more for just about no reason on the credit cards. I think they have let way too much money borrowed out be on the books, and now the little man is having to pay either with money, or his financial credit.
If you read about GOLD, gold is selling for a lot, all over the world, even in this supposed stable time. That's a sign they say that things aren't as steady as the powers that be want you to believe.
Do you have time to waitress? Would be fast cash if you're willing. And home health aides get pai

Yeah, yeah, that should be "your work..."
extra help
maybe I should look into being a subcontractor. Do you find this on the job seeker's board from time to time? Thanks!
I only do an extra cpl.
Unless there are a ton of STATs, it doesn't cause that much of a TAT issue.
Ditto for getting nothing extra for anything and not getting any better.
extra money
I operate a computerized accounting service - bookkeeping, taxes, payroll.
HRBLOCK.Com has classes online. If your good in math, might be a good fit. Flexible hours, good pay. I have my own clients but have worked for them before. I plan to get an advanced certification to specialize in sole proprietors, partnerships, S-corps, etc. Just shi----n around, I can make $5000 during tax season. Before I had my baby, I made 14,000 during tax season.....Sky is the limit if you're a fast learner.....
I do. I have an extra VoiceWriter but SM
not the modem thing - which is what will probably go! The LX-219 is cheap on ebay but the modem is not so cheap.
I have no backup computer but I there are other computers in my house that I could use.
What extra services...
I was wondering if any of you MTSOs, or MTs that work for an MTSO, offer any extra services to your clients? For example, do you do their envelopes and labels as well? Or anything else? Keeping in mind that you are not in the same town and that your employees are not in the office or even same state as you, lol. Thanks for any suggestions!

I think that is 0.03 per line extra. nm

Extra money
I did paper routes!
have extra taken out of his but enough to pay 100% of last years...sm
So if your total tax bill for last year was $4000, you need to make sure by the end of this year that he has had $4000 (plus a little extra for fudge) taken out. Otherwise you will get fined. Probably easier to get it taken out of his than to do the extra forms to fed and state and write the checks and keep track and add it to your income tax form next year...
You have to pay extra to get the Dongle
A little thing that plugs into your USB so that you can use it unlimited times. I think that cost about $30 extra. That's why I did because I know for a fact that I'll need more than 3 installs.
TN - It may take a while to get here from TX, but I will make extra!!

I use an extra bedroom currently. We
homeschool and I also have a couple of bookshelves in my office filled with school stuff and a 3-drawer rolling cart filled with school stuff, plus another desk and printer stand in addition to mine, and a 2-drawer filing cabinet. When I am organized and have everything off the floor and clean I am very comfortable in my space, but when I have piles of books and other stuff on the floor and on the desk it isn't as pleasant a place to be.
I have worked in a BR that I had all the baby's things/toys in and that wasn't so bad because at the time I didn't have all the gadgets I have now.
I have also worked in a corner of my den and I liked being out with the family and the kitchen was right off the family room, but it is hard to work with someone watching TV and talking around you.
No..I mean 900 EXTRA lines. SM
Meaning, I get paid the incentive pay from lines 1100 to lines 2000 (or a TOTAL of 900 lines out of 2000). Hope this helps clear it up.

Some places will pay extra for

Not that many places pay extra for CMT (nm)

Extra Typing...Anyone?
Does anyone do any extra typing on the side...other than medical transcription? Maybe something like manuscripts or anything like that? I love to type and have my medical accounts, but just looking for something a little extra, without being on a strict TAT, etc. Just wondering. Thanks.
anyone who needs to plug in an extra USB
You can go to Walgreen's and buy a Hub for $10.00 apx and then plug it into the computer. However, if it doesn't work at first, unplug it and then plug it back in. This only works for the mouse, keyboard and foot pedal, not the printer plug. The printer plug must be plugged in directly into the computer.
Always asking for extra work.
Do you all get as tired as me when the QA people are constantly hawking the MTs to do extra work. Every day its the same old thing - but they do it in a very passive aggressive "pretty" way. I figure, if there's that much work constantly, hire more MTs. I mean, how much can we stare into the screen!!
I get 0.08 for everything, nothing extra for STATs. nm

Yeah, baby, yeah.
We are here for the long haul.
Oh, God forbid we get an extra two keystrokes
pretty obvious what side of the fence they're on
Does anyone else earn extra money.....
I transcribe 200+ pages per month at $5.00 a page for a local hospital and write resumes as well. The resumes pay better and have over 7000 in my repertoire, however, my first love is MT.
For all the extra hours I put in on DQS to get my lines, no way.

extra money on the side
|
My hands kill me just about every day now, and looking at my hands i have muscle breakdown and twitching, so i'd like to cut down on typing. Want to find something to do on the side to earn maybe 1000 to 1500 dollars a month. Was thinking about ebay, but i'm doubtful I could make that much, even though they hype up the advertisement by saying you could make 3000 MINIMUM. I'm just desperate and feel like my hands are about to fall off. I've spent close to 1000$ this year alone in keyboards, gloves, splints, doc visits, meds, changed my station around, hot soaks, cold soaks, exercises, stretches, vitamins. still my hands just sing every day esp at night. So any extra money earning ideas you guys? thanks |

Why pay the extra 100 bucks for all that fancy
crap on IT if you use it like you would shorthand? Does not make sense to me.
