very difficult at first, and I did NOT want to do them; then found out they were pretty much 'standardized' once you got used to the dictators, they say the same thing. Make templates, normals, whatever.
They are interesting, and I could make tons of lines in no time.
Then, I must have gotten 'bumped' when new managers came in and brought in other MTs, because they took them away from me. Never saw them again after that.
Ended up leaving that sorry job, anyway. Very bad experience...
BUT, those ERs paid my bills for 1 full year until then...
Best of luck.

Hot French bread with real butter, rasberries
with real cream, Belgian sweet dark chocolate and Fritos. It would have to be my last supper, because it would probably kill me!  Yummmmmmm.
eat bread. it will stick to the bread and go down.
I had this happen a lot.

Try butter or margarine. sm
Believe it or not, it works for tar, just might work for food coloring. You never know. Dang kids, do the craziest things. You could always wait until picture retakes.
I need to lose 160 sticks of butter
so I joined dance class. Willing to share my butter for christmas baking.
Hungrily, with lots of butter.

Now that sounds good. With lots of lemon and butter and a baked potato.
Can't just have crab.
haddock fillet fried in butter, Rice-a-roni, green peas
we make more than we can consume so he can bring the leftover for his dinner the next day.
But why sign it to put the past behind? The past should have
It seems that they dredged up the past by wanting the release signed to keep them out of trouble for unfair employment practices. Usually when a person ends the working relationship, they give formal written notice, the company accepts the notice, and the employment is over. Smells pretty fishy to send a termination agreement and, oh by the way, sign this release. LOL
Bread around 2.00...
per loaf, milk was $2.90 last night (gallon). Our home cost $171,000, we paid $1450.00 per month for mtg payment. Not totally clear on the taxes and other things. My son goes to a private school, but have heard wonderful things about the public schools in the area.
Hope I helped you out!
All you need is a nice salad and bread. :)

tip for banana bread lovers. sm
I just disovered (thru a friend) that very ripe bananas can be frozen (in their skin) no freezer bag required to make banana bread on a future date. I tried this, and it does work! It is great!. I love making banana bread for my family, but find that many times, the bananas are ripening too quick for my busy schedule.

Aside from the old favorite zucchini bread, sm
I love zucchini sliced and sauteed with onions, Rotel tomatoes, and crumbled cooked bacon (saute the zucchini in some of the bacon drippings if you can afford the fat/calories).
Been there - could not even afford a loaf of bread once sm
I mean really had not a penny for 2 weeks. We just emptied the cabinets and whatever was in there, we made do. Personally, I know what a terrible feeling that is, downright awful! Remember there is always light at the end of the tunnel. If you have anyone close to you who can help you out - that is one thing, but if not - you will have to make do with what you have.
Try the really cheap stores - the ones where usually you wouldn't even look at before. They have great deals, like Aldi, or the dollar stores, the outlet stores like Wonder, Hostess, etc.
I have to say that experience has humbled me and my family significantly.
Good luck - things will work out. Sometimes, we get wake up calls, and this might be yours. I think I have had quite a few already.
Okay, what is Jerk BBQ and the bread? sounds good!

I recently lost 20 pounds. That means I lost 80 sticks of butter.
    
I found that oatmeal works better than bread crumbs - moister
Happy cooking.
That's what I was thinking, Eat bread or drink something nice and warm to help dissolve.

Toast the bread and then either grate in blender or on a manual cheese grater.

My hubby will always be the bread winner - I am close, but his salary tops mine. sm
My hubby works for one of the top Oil Companies in USA - with overtime - $150K a year for him. He has all the bennies, pension, 401K, profit sharing, etc. I am about 50K shy of his salary.
Tuna mac, green beans, bread slices. Very cheap and good.
All in the world tuna mac is, is a can or two of tuna drained and mixed in with the box kind of mac n' cheese. Serve with a can of green beans and a slice of bread.
I want my bread crumbs white so I let them dry up in the open overnight (winter brings low humidity)
a very good way not to waste stale bread (aside from pudding).
Seafood pasta and olive oil garlic sauce, red leaf salad, homemade bread with sun dried tomato
along with a big glass of white wine. MMMMMM
Bread machine, coffee grinder, George Foreman, waffle maker, blah, blah (sm)
I go through every once in awhile and "clean" away the old Christmas gifts.
Have gotten as much as $3,000 in the past.
The hospital I worked for for 28 years (as a medical lab technologist) always gave us a Christmas bonus. This ranged from $3,000 one year in the 80s down to an orange (yeah, a piece of fruit) and a calendar a few years later. It usually averaged, though, around $200 or so. It always depended on the hospital profit for that year.
The clinic I work for now gives us $100 and a really fancy dinner-dance party (that I don't ever attend).
I have used it in the past
I had it before I got DSL. Never had any problems at all. Lots of local numbers to call into. Never really had problems getting bumped off. Never had problems with busy signals. Just was really slooowww (as is any dial up). I paid a few dollars more a month for the "accelerated" version. It was supposed to be faster, but I didn't notice any difference. I would definitely recommend it as far as dial up goes, though.
I have done this in the past and have just taken another
full time position with another company. If you are motivated enough, then go for it. The only advice I can offer is if they are both full time jobs with full time line requirements not hours, when the first full time job picks back up, are you going to be able to do both jobs full time? That is the only problem I had but I was able to do it just fine.
his past was his past........if you...sm
If you have never learned in life that yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a *gift*, that's why we call it present...and to forgive what was years ago and condemn him in his 60s and continually name-call him, such as *perv* - you apparently have the personality disorder.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, just as I am.....so like I said - go into the mirror.......and become introspective before you name-call....
oh, and your history is 100% perfect? Oh, I get it - you have no faults from the past or prefer to point out everyone else's faults or past.
'tis all in the attitude.......
My past
Hope my "name" doesn't bother anyone, but I just couldn't help but post.
I can relate to how you are feeling about your friend. I suffered from secondary infertility (I had a child but when she turned 2 I started trying to have another and couldn't). I found a web site where I could post and formed many friendships. Most were women who had NO children. My heart went out to them.
The web site is
www.INCIID.org if your friend wants to check it out. I have formed lifelong friendships with several I met on there.
End of my story is that after 9 years of fertility treatments (torture!!!) and 2 miscarriages along the way (worse than torture!!!!) I finally went the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) route and got my twins. My family is now complete. It was a very long, hard haul though. So anyone considering fertility treatmens should keep that in mind. Emotionally and financially. To consider taking out a loan for $15,000 for a one-shot deal at IVF was excruciating. Especially after my doc only gave me a 10% chance of it working.
Sorry, I didn't mean to write a book. I just want to be a source of hope for someone who is going through infertiltiy and miscarriage. It has scarred me, that's true, but these babies make up for the pain of those years. Wishing your friend the best!
I have in the past. I have to
change the covers frequently. If you run out, just rig covers made from clean, soft, thin cloth or Kleenex. I wrap the tissue around it, cut off excess, and secure with small rubber bands. Aaaaaah!
Lots of MTs have ear problems. After showers, dry out ears with an astringent on a Q-Tip, being very gentle. You can even hold 2 Q-tips together to make them too large to accidently jab too deep. Dry out excess astringent with dry ends of Q-tip and don't put on headphones until air-dried completely. If skin is oily, you can use wipe the entire ear and behind with witchhazel to normalize the ear skin and avoid irritation. I can even use alcohol or 2% salicylic acid on my ears. Feels great to oily skin.
I have seen this in the past also
I did training for the small service I worked for, and have worked with new grads all the way up to 20+ years' experience and had a very different focus training each. The older MTs (exp. not age) who had received no QA did have trouble adjusting sometimes; some were more demoralized by it, no matter how kindly it was delivered, and some would get angry and say things like "I've always done it this way and no one has complained." And some had difficulty with the computer programs we used, more so than the newer MTs. I would think that latter problem would be even more pronounced now with all the fancy software out there.
So I think I get she's saying, but on the other hand, I don't think it was too smart or tactful for her to say it and be quoted for it! I've always thought you need a mix of MTs for a healthy environment, newer and "older"!
How do get past the
frustration of KNOWING QA changes are incorrect? Working at Chronicle I had one good QA person I was dealing with and would send me what they call a comparison report. Then when I typed on a different shift and asked for a finished report I noted that many of the blanks I had left were still there BUT there were also things changed that I KNOW were incorrect? As an MT, are we within our rights to question QA changes and also the experience level of the QA? Viewing the particular changes made in my instance, there is no way this QA person carried any kind of experience.
There have been some things with others in the past
In fact, he's estranged from both of his children, one son and one daughter, they actually hate him and have written nasty letters. The daughter is completely insane, does drugs, married about four or five times, a thief, but nothing has been brought up about any sort of abuse. His other daughter and I have talked. She said that her mother growing up was very suspicious of her and her father's relationship. Actually accused her of leading him on, or teasing him, and something happened where she caught her naked and him in the same room and got mad at her. The daughter swears nothing was going on, but who knows, we didn't know him back then. So it ruined her relationship with her mother.
He has my family fooled that he's this great wonderful guy, yet his own family wants nothing to do with him. Thats why bad mouthing him, I would be ostracized. They all know he's slightly perverted, but its accepted. Thats why i'm wondering if i'm blowing it out of proportion. All I know is that its changed and i'm extremely uncomfortable. Being too specific about what he's said is too embarrassing to even mention to them. I don't even want to make eye contact with him.
that's a blast from the past
I remember that term from years ago.
I did a Google search and the closest I got was a Maxwell Sweetheart retractor: http://www.snowdenpencer.com/snowden/dspcatalog.nsf/b7e010000d3e8e708525666e004dfec2/0174ad87011670c085256673005b0e34?OpenDocument
If you read the first paragraph, it's referring to the shape of the blade ... so my guess is if you can have a heart-shaped blade with a retractor, why not with the tenaculum.
She has been referred in the past - sm
by social services, that's where they hooked up with her current psychologist.
It's a rural area, not much to offer, so they are looking further away from home now to find the right person/people for counseling.
Should also mention that SS dropped the ball on more than one occasion when it comes to Tater and her younger brother (different father.) Tater's mom has also relinquished custody of the baby brother in the past couple of months. Just handed him over without so much as a "how ya doin" to the boy's father, who is also the same guy that she had tossed in jail for domestic abuse and has a standing no contact order against. Some mother.
I never had any problem in the past..nm

living it for the past 2.5 yrs---
my ex quite working a legal job so he doesn't have to pay support. my 3 yo son was able to get insurance through the state but it was very hard to get (and didn't keep it) they don't cover that much. the state keeps rewriting the laws and cut benefits each time. I'm an ic and have my own health ins for my son and myself. I'm robbing peter to pay paul right now and probably will be for a long time. we're doing without a lot of things so that I don't have to take a job outside of the house not to mention that I couldn't afford full time child care. I would try getting extra side jobs so that you could stay home. I worked 3 jobs for 2 years and went down to one job that promised full time work a couple of months ago and needless to say they haven't kept up their end of the deal-as usual-so I'm looking to pick up at least 1 other job. the peace of mind knowing that I'm here and flexible, especially if my son gets sick, isn't worth trading right now.
did in the past but does not do drugs...sm
I wish he'd come in here and sue your arse...for that post
Felony in Past
I've just completed an MT course and am now looking to get hired. I have been turned down by a couple of companies because I have a felony in my past from 1995. Can someone who has a felony every get hired to be an MT or have I wasted my money and time? If it is possible to get hired, any ideas on which companies I should try. Thanks in advance for anyone's help.
felony in past
A lot of people in the medical field are very self-righteous and judgemental as well as hypocritical. Apparently this is not a field to go into unless you're perfection like they think they are. Sorry if this upsets some people on this board.
felony in past
i am inclined not to think that "Anon" and "anon2" are the same person. i have reread both, and the two have very different styles. i think "anon2" is just commenting on "Anon's" reply posts, but that is just mho. incidently, i did not take anything amiss in the posts. i thought several of them were quite compassionate.
