Another short cut is . . .
You can cycle around the Alt-F3 shortcut combination as well, which will make all caps no caps, no caps initial caps, and initial caps all caps.
Don't sell yourself short
I am glad you were happy with your Allstate experience, but there are companies out there that hire new grads and provide full QA and excellent feedback and training and you do not have to pay them for it; they pay you. Some even pay hourly for training and provide a good cpl afterward.
If you went to a decent school and have the basic skills, do not sell yourself short. The more graduates that accept these no-pay or low-pay positions, the more there will be of them and consequently, fewer opportunities for graduates with good educations to make a livable wage.
i agree, and just a short added note,
when i went searching for my first job, my grandma (unbeknownst to me) talked to her podiatrist, who offered me a job. I thought, crud, i wouldn't learn much there! but it was a start and i took the job. They were great doctors, it was a fun and learning experience. 32+ years later i marvel at how so many MTs don't have the podiatric terminology that i was lucky enough to get early on. That job was definitely not a waste of time. You can always move on if that first job doesn't help you along your path, but get your foot in the door when you can (barring scam companies of course).
A wav file is not short for waveform. It is a voice
file that you would receive over the internet, not via C-phone. You need software/foot pedal to be able to play the wav files. Wav is pretty much the generic term, but there are many different formats, like mp3, DSS, etc. that the files could be in.
Do not short yourself on the most important part of your career
You will be sorry if you try take the easy way out. Trust me, been there. After wasting 1 year and lots of money at one program, I went to the college and received excellent training. I graduated with straight A's on both programs.
Short for waveform.....type of sound file.
