In Reply to: Do not close credit card accts with 0 balance - Excellent credit here
Every card you have is more potential debt. This may not matter to you now, but when you try to get a car loan, or a mortgage, or even a regular bank loan, it will matter then. There's absolutely no reason to keep multiple card accounts open, especially if you have absolutely no intention of using them. Keep 1 or 2 open, use them regularly, and pay them off promptly. That is the best way to use them to your advantage.

It's about as close as you can come without
a commitment to pregnancy and job! Hahahaha
your not looking close enough,
stealing from you!!!
I don't think so...but close enough...sm
the ergonomics involved with a laptop---mmm... you would have to be real careful if you were actually putting in quite a few hours a day. The keyboards are SO small! And remember ergonomics includes angle of arms, a proper chair height, etc. I don't think you can just plop it anywhere on the deck and do that for 6 hours a day...
Too Close
I'm really disappointed that Elliott left. Let's hope that Elliott fans turn to Taylor. I couldn't believe how close the numbers were. The turn outs that they all had when they went home were incredible, especially Elliott's. I think he'll go far.
Since you are so close
to your due date, I would think long and hard about it. That leave with pay would be very nice.
I don't think it would be very difficult for you to find other at-home positions at a better time, and maybe even the place offering you one now would be have something a little later. (They might not act like it now when trying to get you to commit to something though.)
I'm close by
I think you and I have passed a couple of private e-mails today? I'm about 30 miles from you. Yes, it is outrageous. I have lived here my whole life, and since so many retirees are coming in, my town is impossible to buy in! Well, for my income, that is. I agree, even now without working in MT I would never make it. I left an office job making $300 every two weeks 8 years ago to do this...Best move of my life. As for the future, who knows, but for now, I am really thankful for this profession.
I have never gotten close to that - sm
But the majority of my work is specialty clinic notes and creating a lot of templates and normals for these docs is almost impossible because each patient is so different. I can make almost twice as much in the same amount of time doing OPs and DSs than clinic notes! But I do make way over minimum wage.
How close to 18 is she?
Was your doctor talking to her about the wisdom of getting vaccinated when she reaches 18? She will be able to make her own healthcare decisions then--she doesn't have to wait until 21. In some states, decisions about Gardasil might be available to minors at an earlier age. He undoubtedly feels an obligation to inform her of her rights at that point--it would be wrong of him not to.
Fearing infertility from back x-rays is unfortunate. Do you really believe doctors are exposing all those people having x-rays to the horrible fate of infertility? That wouldn't make sense. If you can't manage to look up whether back x-rays cause infertility, how are you managing to find out about all these alleged deaths and illnesses from Gardasil? Are you reading reputable medical information or stuff cranked out by uninformed, anti-medical crazies?
The fact that YOU had cervical cancer is no reason to expect that your daughter should accept having it, too. This is a preventable and still deadly disease.
Also, if you had to leave the room for "the rest of the exam," it sounds like a gynecologic exam. Was that because your daughter is sexually active? If so, that clearly explains why your doctor was informing her of her choices. She needs to be vaccinated BEFORE she is exposed to the virus.
I moved very close to but not on ...
Makemoney Avenue.
Considering the taxes I pay, I think I should have bought the one on that street.
If you live close enough (sm)
and can afford to quit your job, go ahead. Once you are signed, you are expected to show up for auditions when they tell you to. You might go to 100s of them before being chosen for one and they usually last all day.
Erie. RU close?
.
They are extremely close.
From what I know of both companies, oddly enough it is MQ catching up to changing its operations to par with Spheris with the new Rewards Plan.
However, while Spheris has already had their compensation/benefits package settled for a while, they seem to be aggressively pursuing purchasing other companies and increasing their offshore entities.
MQ seems to be focusing on it's US clientele.
MQ has ASR and if Spheris has it, I haven't heard of it yet. I would imagine ASR came in with a recent purchase if Spheris has much in the way of it right now.
You are welcome.
Well, I actually pay close to $700 a month..
for health insurance, so wouldn't affect me much. The company will still be based in Houston though. They just have another location in Florida. The gas sounds promising. I was wondering how much for food. How much for bread, milk, etc. Just to get an idea. So far, it just sounds like the homes are what is real expensive there. The gas is comparible to Houston. How much do you pay for home insurance per year? In Texas, the ratio is usually something in the range of you buy a house for $140,000, your monthly bill would be around 1,400 for everything, taxes included. The homes here going for around $130,000-$160,000 look comparable to the homes ranging $260,000-$300,000 there. That is a huge difference.
Someone close to me, elderly, just
died of pneumonia after a fall. I can't tell you how many reports I have been typing lately of elderly people in the hospital with pneumonia after falls and really feel for these people. Suddenly, these reports all hit home.
Not even close to the same scenario.
Oh, please... that's like saying you should put your dog into a little cage that's only 4x his size, and give him a little exercise wheel and that he'll be fine... after all, that's what people with hamsters do, right? Apples and oranges. Again, talk to your vet.
Not quite to that point but close...
I know not to internalize it which saves me.
I feel it's a personality flaw very similar to Dr. Jekeyll and Mr. Hyde. ha!
Thanks for posting the article.
Scary how close it was!
 I've been having to tape Tue/Wed shows because I am working and so I haven't been able to vote either. Next week I will just have to make an exception and watch/vote. Have to get Taylor through-whoo-hoo. He's my soul man!
Close but no cigar
Not in New Hampshire ...
I don't make 50K or close sm
I think it is because I just can't sit that tight. I find my body can't take more than 6 or 7 hours at the desk most days. I am chronically ill and that doesn't help. Every fall and every spring I find myself in bed for 12 hours of every 24 trying to find a comfortable position and sleep off my pain.
That, and I know for a fact I don't pick the best work situations. I quit a wonderful job this past summer because they changed platforms and I was bored anyway. I took a job with such heavy ESLs I am struggling a lot and the work flow isn't anywhere near consistent.
This board probably doesn't help, but I am a recent poster so this is not really a contributing factor.
not this year but close
I am with a company (finally) that pays fair meaning it pays for everything at a decent rate. I have doubled what i have made at other companies and will have no issues making at least 60k next year.
I'm not even CLOSE to being an expert but..Have you tried this..
Going into the printer properties and checking your printing preferences. If your not sure how to do this....Go to your Control Panel, open up Printers...find the printer, right click on it, hit properties, and under the General tab, there should be an area at the bottom titled "Printer/printing Preferences (something like that)..hit that and check out all your settings. I'd play around in that areas with your settings to see if somehow something is in there wacko.. Just a thought. I hope it works..
Almost no templates and close to 40 hrs sm
it is all OP notes. Actual my-butt-is-in-the-chair-typing time is 35 hours or so. Shift time is different. I had one day this week when I could not sit for more than 5 hours of my shift total. I had an 8-hour shift and quit after 7 because I could not sit any longer. Lines were 1350 for that day. I remember it as a distracted day, not one where I worked for it.
I often wonder if I were more motivated, if my body didn't hurt when I sit for longer than 1-1/2 at a time, if I could churn out more lines. There is no reason I can't do 30,000 every 2 weeks, except that I can't sit still.
Wish I was close enough to work with her.
Ever since first visiting this board I always read Patti's posts. She has found a good niche for herself and always gives good advice.
Not many MTs are making even close to
Well, at least it will consistently come close!
If an MT is so concerned that she is being cheated out of money, she needs to be proactive and figure out how to verify line counts. I either use Word or an old version of MPCount that I downloaded off the Internet for free. It was my experience that nearly every company I ever worked for was right on or even paid a bit more than my line counts indicated. (Except for ONE company and we all know which one that is!)
Well, have come pretty close to
doubling my lines per day but triple my lines, just cannot do that. My system is really good so I am able to average over $20.00 per hour and that is ok with me. I really think if the systems learned better so many would not be as ticked off as they are now. I could make more but I am old and just tired of working overtime, anytime, days, nights and in between. I would love to cut back to 3 days a week myself but I think my company considers 4 days per/wk part time.
Thanks! I am close to Santa Barbara and will go there.
Will keep you posted. It will take six months to save up the money. The clinic in Santa Barbara is well known.
If this is close by to me (VA) I would love to apply - sm
Please drop me an email. As for relocating that would not be possible for me at this time. But if can be at-home job why is it necessary to relocate? I could see coming in for training for a week or so, but why relocate if it can be accomplished remotely?
Sounds pretty close to
thinly veiled age discrimination to me!
Sure wish you lived close to me. I'd take the dog in a flash (sm)
We lost our lab/retriever 2 years ago from root nerve tumor and still miss him. I think it's time we get another one so we can stop mourning our babe. 
Please DON"T take him to an SPCA or any shelter like them. I, and many others, have had horrific experiences with our local shelters. It breaks my heart to see all those animals without homes and wish I could bring them all home but, unfortunately, cannot...and I will not adopt a dog from their shelters, either, due to their "higher than thou" attitude. Take it from one who knows, they are only interested in the money they receive from tugging at people's heartstrings, not the animals themselves. They came on our property when we weren't home and stole two irish setters that were left from a litter that were promised to someone with a very good reputation, I might add, and then told that person they had to euthanize the pups because they were sick. They were NOT sick. They had all their shots and wormed, etc., and definitely not sick. The worse part was that they had my 14-yo son SIGN a paper stating they had PERMISSION to take them. I really could have caused trouble for them but didn't have the money to pursue it (lawyer fees). Two weeks later, their picture was in the newspaper up for adoption!
These worker should work twice as hard trying to find homes for them instead of stealing other peoples dogs and then asking for money every other week.
We have always adopted from people who are moving out of area, are elderly and can no longer take care of their pets, from friends, etc.
Sorry, I'll get off my soapbox now. but that's my 2 cents.
No, it looks like multilevel which is a close runner to it. nm

I live close to Birmingham
I have never heard of this company would be eager to find out some information myself!
well, one posted close to that...pardon me...nm

I posted right below that that one got close. Geesh.
When I was with MQ I typed 350-400 lph on MTS. With my bonuses and incentives, yes I would have made $100,000, instead I chose to work 15 hours a week and make $33,000 as I posted. With the changes, my average pay was cut in half. I will probably not make that much for quite a while, but I'm close enough to make me happy.
I believe the total bill was close to $400.00 sm
but keep in mind that this was about 8 years ago. Also, your pooch may have needed much more care than mine did--and also it could be more depending on what area of the country you are as well. I'm in a small rural community with only 3-4 vets in the area.
even worse (or close) for me is "reckon"
ex husband used it all the time. Does it make one look like less than average intelligence!
Have you tried to close and restart Word?
This may help. Also, check View, Toolbars and see if there are check marks beside like-named toolbars. If not, try the Customize menu at the bottom of that popup menu to see if there is something duplicated there.
When SH acts screwy here, I just close out and

Close behind you. since Tues, 9000.

Those versions don't even come close to how IT V Pro works.

It depends how close you want to get to people..sm
I personally would just leave it with the email address, giving out one's tel # is a little risky and too personal.
People can get a lot of information about you through the tel #, for instance your address etc....
I do not know if you want that....?
It is also not a good idea to disclose that you are living alone!
It's a jungle out there, especially now, be careful.
I guess I could make close to 30K too, if I
Production pay has ruined the quality of MT work. Paid by the hour, I researched, spell-checked, turned in beautiful, correct, easy-to-read medical documents. Nowadays, we're all chasing our tails trying to make a living off our nano-salaries, and in going faster and faster, worrying more about production, minimum lines per day, etc., my work sure aint what it used to be. And even if it looks good at your end, you should see what the reports look like uploaded onto most EMRs. Appalling, nearly impossible-to-read CRAP. No wonder they think we're worthless robots. That what our work comes out looking like on the EMR.
I usually stay close to normal or a
little above. If it is too fast, there is a great tendency to skip dictation because you don't hear it.
Close that window in the task bar....not
by clicking the "x" in the message box. I was told that when I had my computer cleaned of the AVG thing months ago. Not all of them, but some of them, have the "x" linked to where it's the same as clicking "yes" to download. Sneaker characters, they are!
My doc gave me one lens for close, one for far s/m
I LOVE them. It's like a miracle. I still sometimes have to use readers if I'm in a dim restaurant or somewhere with bad lighting, or if the print is tiny. I have one lens that is for close up, and one for distance.
I love green tea, but not too close to bedtime, or will be up, um,

I had the same problem. Our neighborhood is very close and there are a lot of homes.
I looked up the neighbor's phone number after I saw her name in tax records. I called her and told her I was a neighbor and that her dogs were disturbing the peace. I told her she may not realize it but some people were sick or had small children who were resting at various times of the time and she could not leave her dog barking all day long. I told her we were all talking about calling the police (which I had already done to establish the law and found out you cannot leave a barking dog in your yard in our neighborhood no matter what time it is according to the police) but I decided to phone her instead of bringing the police in at this point because she may not be aware of the dog's disturbing others. She said thank you for calling and the dog has been brought in when it barks to go in. Find out the guidelines from your local police department. A barking dog is disturbing the police no matter what time of the day it is.

You're in such close contact with the lawyers - ask them what many of us did. I owe you no
explanation. The rest of us MTs who went above and beyond "giving our name and email", well, they know what I'm referring to, and that's all that matters to me. Obviously, you're just naively into looking at MQ as the "big bad monster". Believe me, I thought the same way back when, but really jump into the pool and you'll see that things are not quite always as they seem! The suit by the 3 employees - nothing to do with DEP platforms, etc, whole different story than all would have us believe - as in the lawyers. Most of us who were very involved months ago are now just sitting back, seeing where the ride takes us. Very simple really. And if you had been more involved than even you acknowledge, you wouldn't be the LONE poster here, cheering on the lawyers against MQ. Have you noticed per chance you're like the lone voice? As opposed to months ago when there were TONS of voices on your side? Have you begun to wonder WHY we're all silent now? There is so much more to this story than what you are reading. But, I have 100% faith that you'll get where the rest of us are eventually...

excuse me, didn't pay close enough attention.
