I think we should form a group alright, but no support group!!
How about a group of MTs forming their own transcription company?! We don't need some yahoo with an MBA who only cares about the bottom line and doesn't realize there would be NO bottom line if not for the MTs. We do this work on a daily basis, we know what to do and how to do it and most of us have dealt with doctors one on one. I am so disgusted with these companies and from reading this board, so are alot of others.
Hershey's Special Dark syrup on top of
bananas has been doing it for me lately. Yummmmmmmmm!
Xs and Os -- Which are hugs and which are kisses? NM
XO
Kisses and hugs
X's = kisses and O's = hugs! 
Love and kisses from their MOTHER
What kind of love and attention do you think kids get in daycare with 25 other kids in the room? Do you think daycare workers don't turn on Barney for the sake of sanity? Believe me, I know what goes on in a daycare. I worked in one before I had kids. Not the most loving enviornment! Fooling yourself!!
Jellybeans, Hersheys Kisses, grape popsicle & an English muffin. (nm)

Kiss off that is, in too much of a hurry!

yes he wants his 10,000 MTs to be in shape in case we need to kiss

any manager's a$$.  If we lose our homes while Frank decides whether we get raises during the winter the chapstick will come in handy and we can keep the house keys as a momento of what it was like when we had a home before Frank and Greg and the other MQ crooks came on the scene and decided they were going to rob clients and MTs so they could get bigger bonuses. 


To all MQMTs


  


Love Frank


and if you think about KISS Gene Simmons..SM

Kiss' lead singer Gene Simmons is about 67-68 and with that gross tongue......(have you seen him extend this tongue on any talk shows?)...and the fact they have to paint themselves in black and white and look utterly frightening........because they are virtually a no-talent hard-metal band and have to dress this way to sell any tickets so the public never *sees* just how old these dudes look!


GO MICK, forever young.....I thought he had the body (neck down) of a 30-year-old man last night.  Obviously, some don't REALLY check out BODY and BODY LANGUAGE.  And most people are not in as great a shape as MICK even 20+ years younger and then some.....or at his age of 62.


Today's 80 is yesterday's 60, today's 60 is yesterday's 40, today's 50 is yesterday's 30, and today's 40 is yesterday's 20+.....thank goodness I'm right in one of those categories and moving along with those new age values that have been online for over 10 years that I know of, with no plastic surgery because, you see, it's only and always been about attitude in this life.  Age is merely another number. 


Well, they can wipe it and kiss my foot! sm
I had PC Shorthand, for which I paid myself, and good money too, and before that, Productivity Plus (wasn't that the first one?), for which the company paid. Then the platform changed to software that was not compatible with P-Plus (or with transcriptionists, for that matter, LOL) and it was either buy your own or go without. And that was years ago.

Now I've heard that some MTSOs are actually charging hundreds of dollars for their software so you can work for them! First, years ago now, they quit providing you with a computer or any tech support, and then have the nerve to demand that you pay to work for them. YEE-ESH! I mean, really! I'd rather scrub public restrooms as long as the employer provided the brush! Take serious. There is a word for such blatant jerks, but it's too obscene to post, so I'll just call them "anal orifices". :D :D
Then they could wipe it and kiss my foot!
In that case, I'd rather scrub public restrooms, as long as the employer provided the brush. What a bunch of rubbish.
A big hug, a kiss, and lots of love and attention! nm

I took delicious pleasure in telling them to kiss my tail-end. nm

Hubs always comes into my office to kiss me hello or g'bye if I'm working. :) nm

I think it is decided, and you can kiss this account goodbye. I would present the sm
finished work, along with a bill, and when you expect payment.

Meanwhile, get real busy looking for something else to make it up.
Yes, good parents have nannies for their little pets, kiss their brothers
like they are boyfriends, keep vials of their ex-boyfriend's blood, bounce from relationship to relationship, and break up marriages. Not that Brad is without blame there, but married is off limits. AJ's own father has voiced concerns over her mental status.
and what rock
They are the worst for stealing lines, line counter is always down, pay is whenever they feel like it, and the management is rude and hateful, not to mention demanding.
Rock On
Rock concerts are so invigorating..best one I ever went to was Springsteen in the 1980's..Santana's concerts are great, too..When I leave a rock concert, I feel invincible, connected with all the other *rockers*.  Elton John, what a musical genius..My favorite songs from Elton are Crockadile Rock, Candle In the Wind and Levon..I rate him up there with John Lennon, my forever favorite..Have fun and remember..**Party Hardy**..like it was your last day on earth.
Little Rock MT
Wow. That's great. It is so nice to meet other Ark MTs.
you rock! :)
I've been wanting to know this for the longest too.  Thanks for the info!
Rock On!
Midwest MT and MTinNC, you rock.

LOL @ "School of Hard Knocks." I hear you!
WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!! You rock!!! nm
nm
You rock!
Thank you so much for that link.  That is going to provide a wealth of info.   I appreciate it very much.
Way to go! You rock with your bad self!! nm

You rock, Judy H
Very, very wise idea!
You ladies BOTH rock!....

Jodi and ta-shi--you both have done an amazing job!  My hat's off to you two!  PLEASE make sure you CHANGE THE LOCKS.  Once he's out of the house for, I think it's 48 hours, he can't legally come back.  So don't let him muscle his way back in!!


Congrats!!


Yea! You rock, Jodi

All of these posts are SO encouraging.  I would never recognize you as "bawling my eyes out" - you took the plunge and I can virtually see you getting stronger every day!! I am so happy that you found your power.  I just wish you could move closer to your family.  But your MT community "family" is always here for you.


We are so proud of you!!


You rock! Thanks for raising the bar! nm

Rock on MTStars
Thanks for the prize. I think it will come in handy for all those abbreviations they throw at us.
I live in Little Rock

Stedman's rock!
There are different specialties, but the Medical Speller put out by Stedman's is definitely a must-have. 
Rock On Patti
Agree - they are paying for your skils to create the finished professional product. Been in that situation myself -- told them thank you for your time, but I don't think this will be a good fit for my service. It just wasn't worth my time to "negotiate" every time the billing went out, and knowing they were probably looking for other services for cheaper rate in between billings. We've been in this business long enough to accept/decline clients because we have earned our good reputation! Good luck!
Hey RockinMT you rock!
Sorry your CC experience was a dud -- Nothing like OJT -- remember that not too long ago, people learned to be lawyers and doctors by OJT, as well as many other fields such as carpentry (apprentice-type of situations) -- and they LEARNED!
ROCK STAR!
WOOT! No really, that is an OLD dream of mine. Now I think I would just like to travel the world and explore it with my hubby. I am a culture buff. <3

I would also like to continue my self-education that I work on daily. I am trying to learn about everything because I want to know everything and understand the entire universe, LOL. :)

I would also like to be able to put everything together in order to do something that gives a LOT of people joy and hope along with personal power. What that something is, I do not know.

This thread is awesome. It really gives insight as to how different we all are. I love seeing that if we all had the freedom to do what we truly wanted to do, we would not choose the same things. It also shows that we certainly would not stop being "productive" if money were not needed or earned. :)

Rock Star INXS
Has anyone been watching Rock Star INXS?  Tuesday nights when they perform is great..Im telling you these people have talent.  Last night, Ty Taylor sang a Bob Marley song..Woman Dont Cry..I was rocking..I love Bob Marley and have most of his albums..This show is great and has better performers than American Idol, IMHO..plus there is also the added attraction of watching man babes, starting with Dave Navarro (oh..just love his muscles)..
All the Law and Order reruns ROCK
I've been disappointed with A&E lately aside from Law and Order.  The rest of that low-life crappola is neither artistic or entertaining. 
LOL ... 8 pm central, NBC ... but not in Little Rock or some town nm
in Indiana ... they are not showing it. 
under a rock....BUSH is responsible....sm

Your president Bush, whom you *sound* like you voted for...is most definitely responsible for fulfilling his family's nearly 30-year pact with the Saudi's at ALL AMERICAN WORKERS expense.  They had a deal from nearly 30 years ago and now the Bush dynasty is paying them (the Saudi's) back by selling ALL OF US OUT, including our  PORTS!!!  He has jeopardized ALL OF US due to his NEED/WANT for global acceptance of HIM.


If you cannot *see* this - time for you to get some serious help.


Thanks MTStars!!!! You guys rock!! nm
:-)
Flat screens rock!

When I worked at a hospital that had regular computer monitors, by the end of the day my eyes would be really tired and I usually had a headache, no matter how I tried to adjust the brightness/colors/fonts on the computer.


At home I have a flat screen and even after working all day, I could come home and chat literally for several hours using my flat screen and my eyes would not be tired at all.


I highly recommend them! I have a ViewSonic 17", which is plenty big enough for what I need, which includes transcribing, internet, some Photoshopping/graphics, and playing computer games like Freecell and Scrabble for relaxation.


Ergonomic Keyboards Rock!!
I absolutely cannot type using a regular keyboard anymore. I freaked out last year when mine croaked and I couldn't find the same model I use at Staples. I finally found one at Amazon and had them send it to me ASAP. IF I ever get any extra money I might order a couple more to keep on hand in case of emergency.

Rock band names (sm)
For medical terminology as band names, I've always been fond of:

Stable to Rock
and
Uterine Cry (Goth, I think)
between a rock and a hard place
We all know EMR is the future of this industry. Between losing jobs to offshoring and EMR we are being hit with a double whammy. Throw in voice recognition (I have yet to find a program worth anything) and we are definitely on the short end of the stick.

That said, with the market as it is right now (so many people looking for jobs), I would ask myself: 1. Do I like doing the account(s) on in current position? 2. Is the pay covering my bills?

With VR only going on average .03/.04 per line and not that many companies doing straight typing anymore, you could wind up worse off leaving and signing on somewhere else.

With more and more companies signing on to VR you might wind up with crappy accounts AND worse than crappy pay.

I am afraid we have to walk this walk if and until something changes in OUR favor . . . but I am not going to hold my breath.

My vote is to stay put if you answer "yes" to #1 and #2 above, BUT cover yourself and watch the boards for what is going on with different companies. That way if you need to make a change it won't be as stressful for you.

We need to stick together. Get ready . . . sending you a hug. Pass it on . . .
don't mean to group the
hard workers, but this particular person was bragged about to all employees. If we make a good line count, do they brag about us, NO. Congratulations on your line count, you earned it. We did not have this information because of being allowed to see the line counts, we were told. Just wanted to set this straight.
There is a third group you know...
There are Americans who are working thier butts off, both spouses, and still can't make ends meet.  Forget about extras like healthcare, some are lucky to keep the lights on!  They may be courtious, professional people but life is not fair and life is not easy for everyone. 
MRC ----> MRC Group ---> TL?
I'm trying to remember the exact sequence of corporate mergers.

I seem to remember the name Medical Records Corporation being morphed into The MRC Group before the TL merger (was that a merger or an acquisition?). I lost track when TL became Medquist. At one point I was hired by TL when TL and MRC Group were two different places to work. One was in Palos Heights, the other in Oak Brook, and that was a case study in not burning bridges, because it seemed like employees from those offices migrated back and forth between employers somewhat regularly.

Then several years later, I went back to look to be rehired, and discovered much to my dismay that Medquist no longer had brick-and-mortar offices. That was a rude awakening! I really miss being able to stop by the office and chat now and then. I don't play well enough with others to enjoy being in an office every day, but once every couple of months worked out great! :)
