In Reply to: Quick vent!! - penny

Hap Hap peeeee birthday tooooo you.

I think I would just send an email and say, I know it is a system problem, and I have been available as schedule and waiting around, but since I did have prior plans that cannnot be cancelled, I will have to sign off my regular time. Perhaps, I can add a few minutes on consecutive days to try and recoup. (this shows your commitment but HEY!!!

A cent more per line... we are talking a penny here people - a PENNY. SM

How does that make it worth it in your mind?  You pay $298 for a certification test that is slanted in their favor - you have to memorize their rules!  And then you a whole penny more per line?


I would hope that you have enough self-respect to believe that you are worth more than a penny more per line!


Putting a real penny in those penny loafers! nm

Penny candy that really cost a penny a piece!

I've always wondered about numerology. My birthday is on the 19th, my mom's birthday is on th
19th, my dad's birthday is on the 19th, and my great-grandmother's birthday is on the 19th.  All of different months, but I've always wondered if there was something significant about the number 19 that I'm missing. 
"Happy MQer" What a crock!

 I totally agree with MQMT2 about how you should "spend" your check. 


hey...it's my birthday too! Happy Birthday! Enjoy! nm
Relax and enjoy every bite!
it was toooo funny!
I really enjoyed watching that show because Tommy Lee seems to be completely fried! Did you see those skinny legs?? I don't think I have ever seen such sticks on a man that age in my life! To be honest, the only reason that I started watching it was to see if it was a real reality show or a staged show to boost his popularity. What do you think???
Now that is just WAY toooo funny! sm
I had a funny with a doc that meant to say 30 second freeze/thaw cycle (plantar wart on great toe).  He said 30 MINUTE freeze/thaw cycle.  I not only wondered how much time this doc actually had in his schedule, I had visions of the poor patient's big toe falling off on the floor.
This is toooo funny!
I needed a good laugh. I gotta share this thought...mind if I pass this along? Wait, with my senility and all, I wonder if I will remember to share this :)
TOOOO MUCH!! Which is why it was discussed BEFORE we had kids! LOL
He is adament that the kids will have balance, structure and guides (apparnetly as long as his mother does not object)...fine by me as I was raised that way...however, trying to get a kid to face facts when they were told it was not their fault and they they should be in trouble.....well gee...that is not a recurring line I want used in the house and have yet to get him to admit he was wrong since she told him he was not!  Hence, huge morality issue he needs to learn for his life.   Talking to him all you get is "they say"  instead of I did, I was wrong, etc....she has it in his head he is right, they are wrong!!!!  Our actions are our doing whether good, bad or indifferent.   
Toooo funny - you made my day!!!! nm

Heck, I did not say not to wish her a happy birthday! She deserves a happy birthday.
I was just saying her birthday was on Sunday!! :) Why does everyone always want to read something negative into everything on this board. I certainly did not mean anything negative by it! I was just makin' it known WHEN her birthday was!!

Mine cost almost $200 and worth every penny
If you are working with sound files, this is the way to go. Can digitally remix and fix these using their software.
Used to be CMT - Sorry I let it go. A penny is a LOT...@1000 lines a day, it's $2,580 a year - I&

I can think of a lot of things I could do with an extra $2,580 a year - a great  vacation, a down payment on a used car, new office equipment, or tons of supplies for my hobbies.   I was an original grandfathered CMT - but it took a lot of medical conventions, journal reading, and paperwork to keep it up.  I kept my CMT for 14 years.  Then in one of the hardest years of my life, while concentrating on some overwhelming personal concerns, I lef it go because I didn't want to take the time to fill out the paperwork.  I regretted that the very next year.    I have worked for MTSO's who paid a premium, and some who didn't.  So some years it would not have done me any financial good.  I don't think the MTSO I work for now pays extra for CMT, but I know they value it.  I think I will start carrying my AAMT Book of Style around with me for a few months, and then sit for the certificate again.  But I emphasize that IF your MTSO pays more, it is a no-brainer to go for it, in my PERSONAL CASE I will do it for my own satisfaction.  Everyone may not agree with everything in the Book of Style, but it is a good thing to start from a foundation that makes sense.  You have to choose one, and the Book of  Style is available and makes sense.           Anyway, again, a penny is a lot ... in most cases at or more than 10 percent - who doesn't want a 10 percent raise?       Wise


offshoring - like the docs need to save a penny
n/m
Penny wise and pound foolish
Cheap ones don't save in voice files. They're hard to use so most likely your doc will not bother to pause or rewind for dictation. You may save some money now but you will end up wasting more time to decipher the recording. The best one is Olympus DS5000... every word can be heard clearly with that.
OMG! You are a riot! Maybe they should give you 19 cpl and run a huge corp on a penny?
and screaming poverty! And if you work for 8 cpl, well, then that's YOUR problem! You take peanuts for pay, and then complain about it! Go figure.
I agree, Frizz-Ease is the best. Worth every penny. nm

Stay way from Penny Talk - you will constantly be disconnected..sm

It was nothing but a big mess.  Everytime I tried to pound off a job, it would disconnect me, and then charge me the 69 cents to reconnect, which I ended up doing about 50 times a day.  Not an option for any MT.  I have always used Vonage and have had no problems.  If all else fails, stay with onesuite.com until you can find a permanent unlimited long distance plan.  Good luck!


A big waste of effort and money. You won't make 1 penny more.

Sure could. It was a nickel and a penny. Then they made King Size Cokes that you SM
had to pay a dime for. Cigarettes were 28 cents. You put in a quarter and a nickel (the machine) and you got a pack of cigarettes with two pennies in the cellophane. Ugh. I'm really telling on myself here.
Amen, and I will add one more thing. If I had a penny for all the times I've heard, "just a ty
well, maybe I wouldn't be rich, but I could buy a months' worth of groceries! LOL
4th is my birthday.
Can't believe how old I am. Where have all the flowers gone? Long time passing.....
You say it's your birthday....nm

Today's my birthday!!! sm

I was 36 once.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY
TO YOU !!!
Happy Birthday to You

Today's my Mom's birthday. What do you get for someone
who has everything and needs nothing?  I'm never sure which books she has read or not.  She likes to pick out her own clothing.  She has plenty of flowers and plants.  She already has tons of stinky candles and bath stuff.  I can't think of anything original.  Any ideas?  Thank you.
Her birthday was Sunday. :)
It's been up there at the top since Sunday. lol
so why can't someone wish a Happy birthday
without someone else having to correct them?  So what if it was Sunday. I love BD wishes early, ontime, or late. 
Happy birthday!!!!

Tell him a very happy birthday! :)

Happy Birthday 2U!
LOVE that song....
I'm glad it's your birthday
happy birthday to you.

Let's sing along!
My Birthday today, too (12/08) nm

I remember that day well. It's the birthday sm
of a very dear, longtime friend. John Lennon was my friend's hero of all time and his hero was killed on his birthday. Just now I got an email from this friend, thanking me for the gift I sent him for his birthday--a reproduction of Lennon's report card in 1955-56. The headmaster's comment (in red) on the report card was: He has too many of the wrong ambitions and his energy is too often misplaced." His French teacher said: "A disappointing result. He is so fond of obtaining a cheap laugh in class that he has little time left for serious concentration."

Hope they lived to see John's success.




Happy Birthday!!nm

50th Birthday
I turned 50 last year. Don't know if you have access to co-worker's family, but if you do and can get some pictures, a little scrapbook is something I got that I just treasure. Mine had the internet stuff about the day in history, then prices on various things on that date, and then pictures of me and family from early years to present. Just a suggestion. Also, some of the Red Hat Society stuff is kind of fun.
50th Birthday
We did a party last year for my brother-in-law - just the regular "over-the-hill" stuff, but on the cake we had them write Happy half a century Birthday instead of using the 50 - it made it sound so much older. - I shouldn't gest - i'm almost there myself.
It's my birthday, DH says I get to pick where I want to eat.
Ohhhh, the possibilities!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! nm

Don't do Mother's Day as birthday is May 3rd

Kind of combine the two.  Dinner tomorrow.  Yee hah!  No dishes.


Hubby and kids (that are still young enough to be home) cook and  do the dishes on mother's day, so it's always been a nice week for me.


AND I'm a grandmom too..........  X 3.


Don't ask.     Still going uphill so far, though not far from the crest.  


Birthday suggestions
Anyone have any suggestions on something to do for a 15 year old birthday, looking to do something special/unique for my daughter, only her, her cousin and myself, open to ideas.  Thanks
my 31st birthday, that's what!nm
