Blind leading the blind, but here goes...
At the very top, where it says, file, then edit, there will be view. Click on view. Click on toolbar. Play around with adding and deleting toolbars until you get the one(s) you want.

Good luck!
this may be the blind leading the blind, but...
I think it is control F3, then I think what you want is under local configuration. How quickly we forget this stuff, geez!!
Do they still use Web-Correct? I didn't mind the platform but

Never mind....I see that you are from below post....

Never mind..got info about TC from above post..
Thanks!
Don't mind the post, but KS doesn't seem

Never mind, found the post. nm
 
Again, YOUR mind set reads me as yelling. I post
childhood that you see everything as criticizm and yelling.  That is not my mind set when I am posting.  I am posting with the voice of urgency so not another day is wasted.  If you want to read me as kicking others when down, criticizing, yelling, acting superior that is on you, not as I intended. 
The post didn't come from CW or me
She hasn't come here since she started working on her own blogging site. 
No, I didn't get that out of the post.
You better watch rolling those eyes or they're liable to pop outta your head and roll across the floor.
Hey, I didn't post this!
I think I've just been a victim of identify theft!

I sure didn't post this either

I really didn't post this either

Didn't the post say I need more than 1,200 a day!!??

It does not say that is all I could type in a day, now does it?  It says that is the minimum required by companies.  However, on so many days you have to fight to get that much, and it may take you 10 or more hours to do it.  No, not because I type that slow but because the work is not there!!  Geeze.


Didn't post here...
the message was moved here. Sorry if that offended you. Not my action.
Sorry, didn't mean to place my post here.

Sorry, C-smg, I didn't see your post. GMTA. nm

I see that my post was removed - i didn't say anything bad

but it was removed.  Glad I got the chance to vent and that 11 people got to read it.


 


Didn't they post the same job four times

I would think that only one recruiter/owner would need to post for a transcriptionist, not four.  The one was titled Police Reports, but then on the inside it was medical transcription clinic work.  I'm not so sure about that one.  


I didn't say that post was slanderous
Read it again, and no....I don't watch garbage TV, I guess that's why I'm so naive.
Didn't you ever think recruiters post these..

I see you didn't listen to my last post sm
TT MANAGEMENT DOES NOT GET PAID HOLIDAYS. They are SALARIED. That means NO EXTRA for overtime, NO COMP DAYS either. They work when they are told. I can't be told to work on my days off, but management CAN and they frequently DO work on their so-called time off. Given that I make more than many people in management at TT, I will not begrudge them taking off Christmas or New Year's or whatever pittance they get in the way of a holiday off. I know 3 people in management who worked yesterday, from home on their *paid holiday* so that those of us who were working had a go-to person. They have management around between 6 a.m. and midnight 7 days a week, 356-1/4 days a year, and tech support too. If this **** you off so much, GO FIND A JOB WITH A SALARY and get a grip! I have had a salaried job and guess what? Worked more hours in a year for less pay than I get on production. You just aren't bright enough to see the writing on the wall. How is it you MT when you can't read?
The rest of us get it! We know you didn't post the

sorry LTMT I didn't see you post before sm
I put mine about the pay for straight versus VR. Makes no sense to me either.
Well, my entire post didn't take
Anyway, the entire report would be free of most formatting.
Sorry, that link didn't post right (sm)

I didn't mean for my post to come off as bashing
I hope you didn't take it that way. Just wanted to throw out a couple of suggestions if you still had the time to get back with the company and negotiate. Actually happy to hear someone has an MT job that they enjoy! :-)
I almost didn't read your post...
... because I thought you were someone asking what it's like to do radiology work at Transcend, and I don't.

But I'm glad I did click to read it, and I'm glad some more of the folks who are happy working at Transcend--and are still working the same accounts with virtually no changes (except good ones) YEARS after their own merger--are coming on board to tell their stories. My own merger (from TRS) was only 5 months ago, and just about all I hear is 'just wait, they'll give your good account to somebody else, they'll move you to something lousy with no work available, they'll make you do speech-wreck, whether you want to or not, and you'll soon be singing a different tune,' that sort of thing.

But beware... you say anything good about Transcend on this board, and you'll soon be labeled a 'suit.'

I am not a suit. I am a pajama. And hey... I could only WISH they'd pay me for all this free positive PR I'm doing..... :)

Yes, so that those who didn't see the post on the Company board may see it on the
Main board.  What's wrong with that?  Isn't that ok to do? 
Older post says they didn't pay for spaces. nm

Sorry for the double post - I thought it didn't *take*
nm
Wow, I didn't know the owner would get on here under different names and post
I guess that explains it all.  My experience wasn't the best and I know I'm not alone.  No wander there are lots of positives, had no idea the owner did that.
I asked this the other day on another post - didn't get an answer
xx
See last post; I didn't explain hours correctly

I didn't see that in her post at all. In fact I wrote something similar...please sm
I believe what she meant was similar to what I wrote which was that I felt a majority of the nasty posts probably came from isolated people that take crap all day. These types normally get walked on because they aren't outspoken enough in real life to say what they feel. Then they anonymously come here (or other boards)to take out their pinned up frustrations. It's merely an opinion and you know what they say about those.:)

The reason I believe this to be true is because I've encountered way more nasty people on-line than in real life. If some of the posters said the same nasty remarks to a person's face that they do hiding behind a screen name, #1) They'd get fired. #2) They'd have NO friends.
#3) They'd lose a few teeth.

Think about it.
The clickable link in post below didn't work for me...

Am I getting blind???

Wow, Cardioscribes closed their position already?  What happened to their last post?


How blind are you...
I received a call from HR and he SPECIFICALLY told me that my job was being cut for the work to be sent offshore. How can you defend this - it is blatant.
I must be blind as a bat - I don't even see their AD
Maybe I'm just looking so hard for it that I'm overlooking it?
Missy....are you blind?
You can't see the forest for the trees. Keep plugging away and you will find out just how much you are not appreciated and I hope it is not too late. You probably need compassion but you will find that it will not come from OSI. They have snakes in their heads and deep down don't care, they are just using you to better themselves.
If I were blind, I'd still recognize it as

I don't think they're blind to it
It wouldn't surprise me to find out they cultivate it. They allow a couple of MTs to become golden. Their supervisors spoon feed them the best of the work during their preferred shift and ensure that they have as much as they want. So what if the other 876 employees are dying out there.

Voila! You've got a couple of people who will come on boards like this one and sing exhaultations your company to the end...vowing that the naysayers are just disgruntled former employees or, even more likely, just lazy complainers.

Management isn't blind, but they're hoping the MTs remain so.
Is there really a shortage of US MTs or am I blind and deaf?? sm

I was talking to a prospective employer today.  First off, it is a start-up company in US.  They already have a base in the Philippines. Well, that turned right off; however, we continued the conversation.  My question to this person was this.....so, if you were to get contracts for MT here in the US, are you willing to just hire US MTs?  Answer...Well there is such a shortage of good quality MTs here in the US and we would like to have the work done in the Philippines.  My next question, and if the contract specifically states all work is to stay in the USA, what then?  Well, then we would hire only US based MTs. 


Finally, I had to stop him in his tracks....I told him I emphatically disagree.  There is not a shortage of US MTs.  The problem is that you or any other Internationally based company is not willing to pay the US MTs what they are worth.  You want cheap labor, and you won't get that in the US.  Our MTs here in the USA produce such a high quality patient record and you have to be willing to compensate for that.  If you are interested in USA contracts but want to use cheap labor with no concern for quality, than I am not the person for this position.


 


I am so furious right now as I mull over the conversation......am I just blind or is there really a shortage here in the US of quality-driven MTs.


I am an MT myself as well as QA Specialist and I just do not agree with this mentality.  I think they use this excuse to justify their wanting to offshore.  I see through the smoke screen; however, I guess I just need to hear it from my fellow MTs. 


What are your thoughts on this issue of not enough trained and experienced MTs here in the USA?


 


 


That is what these companies who are robbing us blind think you will do!

Okay.. you have a point.. isnt that the "blind leading the blind." Maybe 1.5 cpl is appropria
THINGS THAT MAKE YA GO HMMMMMMM
It is very sad you are so accepting of offshoring and AAMT turning a blind eye to the American MTs.
The offshoring would not be a problem if there was not such a huge difference in cost. We are on the losing end and taking pay cuts because of offshoring. Also, I know many who have lost their jobs to cheap labor overseas. AAMT is encouring this. That is wrong. America is slowly become a third world country in itself. If we don't stop it now, there will be no jobs left for Americans. I don't care where you are from or what kind of job you have, the pay should be equal for all so the competition is fair. You will find after some time with AAMT, you will be ignored and will receive nothing but redundant information from AAMT office and local chapters. Anything they offer can be gained via the internet now.
Not blind. Brown nosers make great workers for the
