    Yes! Rec'd it in 2 parts ...
    Half after 3 months, the other half after 6 more months (when I had been there 9 months). I didn't even have to remind anyone!!!
    15 to 18 cpl in some parts of the Northeast

    There is so much anger in all parts of the (sm)
    transcription community, that I'm seriously surprised that it hasn't resulted in something really terrible.
    Screen in 2 parts, need only 1
    let me state over as maybe someone knows how to get out.
    4 regularly, parts of 5 more sm
    I do only OPs, so I have some free standing surgical centers and a hospital, I do all of those OP notes. It is only about 75 to 100 reports a day with all of that. It sounds like a lot, but I have tons of normals, I am not working all that hard :-).

    I have a couple of specialties in OP notes that almost no one else can do, certainly not either of the companies I work for, so I pick up those specialties for an additional 4 facilities with any regularity, but it will be 5 once in a while.

    This is not something I exactly asked for, it is just how it has worked out. Having that many different accounts is not for everyone, neither is the fact that I have about 200 different voices regularly, and another 200 once in a while. This is MY comfort zone and I don't recommend it.


    Did you look for them in Quick Parts? sm
    AutoText doesn't work the same way in 2007. They are now part of the Quick Parts building blocks and you no longer get the tip box when you type your names. You can still get them to expand with F3 if you can remember the names. Otherwise, you have to get to them the long way through the Insert menu. Did you look to see if they transferred to Quick Parts? If not, you can rename your old normal.dot and take out any macros, then copy that dot file to the building blocks folder. Do this with Word closed. They should be there when you reopen Word.
    They are in Quick Parts! Wow!
    Now, I have to just learn how to use them!! lol
    Thank you. I didnt know if there were a lot of parts to assemble.

    Selling body parts in the US sm
    There was a brief mention of a recent arrest (I believe it was in New York) of a phony business set-up involving funeral homes, etc., selling bone grafts, etc. from dead bodies (one was supposedly Allistair Cook's body of the PBS fame) and replacing these parts with PVC piping in some cases. These people made "millions" and the patients/families had to be notified. One man was practically crying because he had been told he has to be tested every 6 mos. for HIV, hepatitis, etc., since he had a recent surgery on his neck. They said it may not present itself for years in some cases. They showed some gentlemen being led away in handcuffs but the story was cut short. Anyone else know about this travesty and why so little else has been said about it or is there any web site, etc., that explains it in more detail? Would like to know morel I am very concerned for the recipients as well as the unbeknownst-to-them "donor" families.
    You misunderstood my whole post (probably the way I did it - in 2 parts)

    Here is what I mean.  I learned in 1965 with no training.  Then several years later, someone told me I was spelling Fahrenheit wrong.  Now fast forward to 2006.  I've been doing this for 30-40 years, very few medical spelling errors, and NOW is when my company nitpicks.


    Just like trying to buy original factory parts for a -(sm)
    Ford truck that is more than 5 or 6 years old! The dealership's reasoning: 'Most people replace their trucks every 2 or 3 years.' Why tout them as being 'Ford tough' and as lasting for decades, if you can't buy parts for them after 5 years? Geezz.......

    I agree 100% with your conspiracy/survivalist/money-making tactic for AAMT. No BOS was ever needed 'til they came along and said it was.........
    There are no safe parts of the country
    Yours would be no different than mine. I watch news on TV and cannot believe when I hear someone say, I just cannot believe it happened in this neighborhood. Ridiculous! When I had children at home, no I paid for everything. I also worked my behind off - away from home by the way- because years ago, OMG, they actually had you to come into an office! I had no one to help me out. I did not start working from home until about 2005 so very doubable and I worked 2 jobs for years to make a living.
    you must be new it these parts. search the archives. besides that we can't afford to QA QA.
    We're on production. You?
    It is cheaper for members. Only one test but 2 parts.

    those whole roasted chickens or fried chicken parts
    you buy in grocery store are chickens that the sale dates is very close to expiring, so they cook them and avoid throwing them away. I like my meat a little fresher than on the border of rotting time.
    It's Maalox and Benadryl, equal parts, swish and swallow. nm

    All parts of the body can be palpated, it is part of the physical examination
    ditto
    Cook in equal parts BBQ and grape jelly. Crock pot if time. Yum! nm
     
    No dial tone? No foot control? What's wrong? Are all parts plugged in? Is your phone

    Our 2 previous Dells are now our random computer parts replacement pile. No more Dells. nm

    I thought so. Thanks.:)

    I thought so too
    Ya know, I thought so too but I think it is because his hair cut and facial makeup and eye brows are so severe..If he grew a longer beard, some side burns and longer hair, I dont think it would look that bad..However, he looks like my ex..sigh..My ex was a Latino as Dave Navarro is and has the same face..When I first saw Dave Navarro..I said to everyone, My gosh, he looks like John and they agreed..Carmen (dont know if I like her or not) and Dave sure make a good looking couple, though.
    I thought it was just me! Thank God I'm

    well, one would have thought it sure
    would have gotten some press, for sure. But on the other hand, the story doesn't have the same 'newsworthy' features (from the press standpoint), ie, hope for a happy outcome, being a school-sponsored trip, a top student with the full scholarship waiting, the mystery of higher-ups possibly helping to hide the facts, etc etc.

    Its a very very tragic thing, to have a child go missing and especially with the horrible outcome you mentioned.

    If the news reported (which they can't) EVERYTHING that went on, we'd probably be afraid to wake up in the morning.
    I thought of that too.
    I thought about the brown recluse and I think that is why I was nervous and there are so many bites at one time. We have huge spiders here. I hope it isn't a recluse. The symptoms are similar. One scar looks pretty bad. I will watch it. Thanks for responding.:)
    YES< YES, I thought it was just me!

    That's what I thought...or at least that is what
    the signed contract states.

    Thank you for clearing that up.
    Happens to me, too, but I always thought it was

    when supe was pushing jobs into individual que's to improve TAT, since it is always at the end of a job that it happens -- just before another job will download to me.


    Yes, it does happen. Not equipment problem, but possibly could be a connection problem -- slow connection causing this, too ????


    Here is a thought..
    Find MTs in your area that work at home with kids...maybe doing a kid swapping thing would help everyone. Create a MT Mommy group LOL.
    I thought I won...

    Thought of something else!
    Do you e-mail or send in mail, or both? I have always gotten my MT jobs by e-mail.

    There are so many hurdles, especially equipment requirements. It seems you have everything right on track, you just need your break!

    Another thing I thought of; do you look at other MT websites with job boards? I go to other MT websites when there's nothing new at my favorite one.

    Good luck, and keep us posted!
    I had thought of this also
    In fact, there was just a few hours ago there was a press conference on the news.  The Dept of Health and Human Services was giving a briefing and  said that many medical volunteers are needed, including nurses, physicians, EMTs, etc.  He said on the HHS website there was a link for volunteers to register where they ask questions as to your capabilities, etc.  I had wondered if MTs would be needed when I was watching this.  I do not remember the specific website, but I'm sure it can be found by Googling the Dept of Health and Human Services.   God Bless you for volunteering.    
    That's what I thought.
    That's what I wanted to do, was mark it so they at least would see it, but nooooooo....they just leg it go!!! And these nationals wonder why they lose accounts!
    Thanks! I never even thought much about it until...
    JK mentioned it. 
    I second that thought!

    I thought so
    you are working for Frankie Boy or are you Frankie Boy.
    Where is Chucky zipper or is Chucky Frankie Boy too?
    I thought of that too.

    Thanks for the thought...nm

    I have thought about this, too.
    I love Oprah - and I find myself running back and forth between commercials. I have been thinking of putting a small tv in my office. What do you all think?
    Have yo thought about
    applying for a clerical job in your local hospital or a doctor's office?   Good luck to you!
    I had not even thought about that. Thank you!
    .
    Just a thought - sm

    Have you noticed a pattern to when it kicks you out, such as immediately after you send an e-mail?  This happened to me, there was a setting in my Outlook Express that made it disconnect every time I sent an e-mail.  It was easily fixed. 


     


    Just a thought ...
    try looking here:

    www.PADfacts.com

    Do seek help, though. Like several posters below stated, this could be very serious.
    Thanks... that's what I thought

    Just a thought....
    Having a parent die isn't exactly easy on a child.  Could some of their problems be that they lost their mother, who was obviously a huge part of their lives, rather than the homeschooling?  I know someone who lost his mother when he was in grade school.  He had severe social problems after that, and he wasn't homeschooled. 
    I just thought
    I just thought maybe since things will be slow they would ask for volunteers first, I work for QT, does anyone else know their policy?
    I know what you mean, actually. I thought it was just me.
    Jane Fonda is like this a bit. Maybe has to do with their relationship with their father. I am no perfect person character-wise that is for sure but there aren't cameras and paparazzi following me around (thank GOD).
    I never thought of it that way.
    Eleanor Roosevelt and Gandhi were INFJ, too. Oh, well. I wound up quitting both of those jobs because I hated the way they were treating people. I'm better off for it. Principles are worth more to me than paychecks. LOL Thanks for the clarification. I like Myers-Briggs now that I know it's about understanding personality instead of judging someone's character.
    Hey, I have often thought if I were in your
    I would be able to make so much money!  I mean, if you get bored what do ya do - work!  And quiet all the time!  I'm sure it can get lonely at times but man, some days I dream of having a house (or even an apartment) of my own and being able to eat what I want when I want, no one to cook for, when I clean it stays clean.  I could rent movies and watch them all day, fall asleep at 5:00 p.m., wake up at 1:00 a.m. and type till I was tired, etc. etc.  I know I'm thinking of only the advantages and not disadvantages but man, sometimes it sounds good!
    If you think WE had it bad, just thought of this. . .

    My mom and another "girl" were typists for the old pipeline company back in the 1950's. They had to type financial reports (all numbers) on manual typewriters. There was no White Out back then and erasing was not allowed. If you got something wrong, you had to start over.


    They finally finished the reports and stacked them up on the windowsill.  Cold windy day and the boss comes in and opens the window. My mom and the other girl sat down and cried and then started over again.


    My mom always said she thought the boss might have opened the window on purpose, but that's as far as she ever went with it. Now people would say, "My boss was such a . . . "


    No, it is you act on that thought. nm
