I took a "fly-by-night" course and am seeing the repercussions now.

Although I was fortunate to get a job after only 2 weeks of graduating, I can see where I am lacking in certain areas and have looking into going to M-Tec. I wished I had researched the training on this profession beforehand, but you live and learn.

I also did about 20 reports. Nothing on pharmacology. I love my job and am totally willing to buck up and get the proper training that I should have gotten in the first place. I know it will pay off in the end.

From the sounds of it, things are exceptional with your course, either. I would seriously consider looking into a different program.

A fellow MT told me that she typed somewhere around 4,000 reports while in school. I typed apx. 20. Who would you hire?

Good luck!

Last night on Lifetime was an online....sm
Last night on the Lifetime Channel was a 2006 movie called Fatal Desire with Anne Heche and Eric Roberts and it was just about this, meeting online......it was a good movie...just repetitive to me about how these bad things do happen online and the ending was AWFULLY shallow and dumb, but the movie, in general, was a true story about this woman named Tanya Sullivan who ended up with a life sentence in jail......

Night Hours for New Grads?

Hi,

Are new graduates from MT programs like M-Tec or CS offered night hours, any evening p/t or f/t jobs?

Thanks

LOL. I responded late last night,
My brain wasn't comprehending what you were asking. I don't think we can post links here, so I will email you.

Sarah...if youve logged off for the night, please (sm)
email me so I can get your sound live.
