ray of @ email: @: The reason I was asking the MBA question was that a couple of years ago I read an article about their relative worth. At the time, they were so common, and expensive, it was considered not necessarily a cost effective option depending on what kind of work you were seeking. Prolly changed now, prolly.

SQRN of Cardiff email: @: Yesterday morning I had to call Apple regarding my IPhone. The woman I was talking to was very nice and had a VERY distinct accent, so in the middle of our conversation about my phone, I had to ask..."are you from Minnesota by chance?" And the answer....YES! :-) I laughed, I'm not so sure she found it funny. :-/ I was just impressed with my accent recognition.

Laura of @ email: @: I find that it's better to demonstrate practical knowledge of competencies for what is expected in this field, than to talk about past glories (or infamies..;-))
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:18 Comment 187897
Laura of @ email: @: Tina, aww..;-) but, in truth I don't tell people on the job that I have a JD..it's somewhat of a liability in the medical field...
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:17 Comment 187896
tina of @ email: @: those were those 'core teaching classes on the side' that I was talking about.
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:17 Comment 187895
tina of @ email: @: YES! That's what it was - I'd have to do the coursework to get the teacher's cert.
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:16 Comment 187894
Laura of @ email: @: But, to get your teaching certification, don't you still have to do about 2 years of course work?
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:14 Comment 187893
tina of @ email: @: Laura, with your nursing degree AND your JD, you are gonna SHINE above everyone else on the resume front! I actually had someone from Qualcomm (not roger) call me for an interview and he said primarily he noticed my app because of the pro-triathlete thing. Anything that makes you different is good :-)
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:12 Comment 187892
tina of @ email: @: having a masters on your resume for anything is almost key nowadays - so many people have undergrads now that it's tough to stand out otherwise.
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:12 Comment 187891
Laura of @ email: @: and, Nurse Legal Consultant..RN/JD, which is NOT the direction I am heading (altho' people seem to presume that!) I like working with patients, not with suits. :-)
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:10 Comment 187890
tina of @ email: @: Al - yeah...I think I heard it could be a masters in anything, like if I wanted to teach math, I'd get a masters in math, BUT...they said my MBA would also count for the 'masters pay scale' and I THINK they even said I could start teaching right away because of that, but I would just have to take core teaching classes on the side.
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:09 Comment 187889
Laura of @ email: @: Nursing is all over the map in terms of what you need to make very good money and advance. At my hospital, there are 6000 (approx) nurses, of those only 240 have advanced practice degrees (masters or PhD). The majority have ADN (2 year) or BSN (4 year), with many nurses getting clinical specialty certifications on top of their degrees. And, the latest in nursing is the nurse practitioner (N.P.) or now, a doctorate in nursing practice (DNP) or a Masters in Medical Infomatics, for those who want to combine nursing with finance or administration. What I love about nursing is that there are so many, many possibilities!
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:08 Comment 187888 Al of email: @: I was going to chime in that DH is a teacher and doesn't have a masters. Then I remembered that he does have a masters, just not in teaching. It's in some nerdy science field.
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 7:05 Comment 187887
sissy of az email: @: Tina- as a teacher in Arizona with a Masters Degree, I can say you are correct. a masters is also a requirement to teach at the community college level.

Laura of @ email: @: Boop, are your classes going to be in an evening program or weekend program?
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 6:52 Comment 187885
tina of @ email: @: from what I understand, teachers need to have a masters (not MBA obviously) in order to get paid anything decent. Could be wrong, but I don't think I am - I was looking into this in both Cali and Minn at one point.
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 6:49 Comment 187884
tina of @ email: @: Depending on what you are doing I guess, MBA's are pretty much now standard requirements in upper levels of the corporate world - unless you have like a CPA or something. Of course, I just know the financial/mgmt side of the business world
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 6:44 Comment 187883
ray of @ email: @: Boop!!!Come back to us, you're too far away. So, are MBA's marketable again? Kind of a big investment, no?

Boop of SÁ email: @: Hi all - thanks.for all the good wishes and study tips...I'm hoping not to be studying in the early a.m. as I'll never get to work out then! Looking forward to the craziness. Given the hours I've been working this week, I'm thinking I'll have no problem working normal hours & going to school. Looks like I'm in SA for another week now. GOOD LUCK TO the OC CREW AT IMCDA this weekend!!!!

ray of @ email: @: Of course, you're pretty rural too so if you aren't a good shot, use a .410 shotgun with the same milk jug. Better coverage and your aim can be off a little. Not sure how I know this, must have been something I read.
Date: Friday June 19th, 2009 5:02 Comment 187880
ray of @ email: @: rita, I recommend a pellet gun and standard 0.117 shot. Sight it in at about 25ft and just sit there all quiet until you get one in the crosshairs. Head shot is best although they twitch a little afterward. If your neighbors are PETA people, use a quart plastic milk jug over the barrel to muffle the shot. Yer Welcome!

LaB of email: @: Thing about different dog breeds, they have their unique own styles. German Shepards are more formal and business like, hence the panty hose. Labs are all about play and fun, leading to a nice Teva sandal snack. So my question to the page is: what breed of dog will go for a Stiletto?

ray of @ email: @: JD, my German Shepherd years ago set the bar high for ingested junk. Ate a pair of the wife's pantyhose and crapped them out intact. How he didn't get obstructed is beond me but he did run around for a whole day with one leg of the panty hose sticking out his butt. I couldn't pull it out for fear of disemboweling him. He finally pushed the panties and the other leg out after aboot 8 hours. True story...

All childrens shoes are now to be left up above dog reaching distance. Right now that is about 10 inches off the floor but soon to be 6 feet or greater. Her mommy got to be 95lbs and daddy was 115lbs. She is doing really really good with the kennel training. Hardly makes any noise at night. No real accidents to report but a few close calls. Hope to get some photo's I took of here on monday with the kiddo's. She runs around chasing James III cus his pants are right at eye level with her. He runs around saying "No Dog! No Dog!" 8)
