37-year-old female been an MT since I was 19. sm
When the hospital looked at my college courses they thought I would be a great fit for a part-time transcription job.

Had no clue what an MT was back then but they started me at $7.61 an hour which was a lot more than what all my friends were making back then.

With a lot of help from spellcheck, my trusty word books and a very patient old timer sitting next to me in the dept - it all worked out.

I'm a 27-year-old female MT (7 years) with a numb right wrist, but I love my job.  Started with Transcriptions Limited, then Medquist & Spheris, now thoroughly enjoying MT at a small but wonderful service.

#2 should be 82-year-old female,
#5 depends on how the client wants abbreviations (po versus p.o.) and according to BOS it is q.4h. with no space between the q. and the 4; #1 also depends on the client; I have one account that specifically states 2 spaces after periods and colons.

I don't blame him for saying that, I probably wouldn't have been so nice!


There should be mandatory sterilization in cases like that.


 


Don't need hand holding.
I don't expect them to hold my hand, but it would be nice if they at least pretended to be somewhat human! Compassion for another person's loss only takes a second to respond to.... as you said in your post. It only took a second right? Most of the time I am with you, I would rather NOT hear from them. But of course I sent an e-mail to tell her that I would be out for the funeral, she could have replied with a condolence. That's all I am saying. I think that's a bit of a problem with the world in general these days, no one even seems to have time to be kind. Thank you for your second to respond and give your condolence on my loss!
your holding the title!

First of all, I am sorry for your loss.


Second, how can he even say anything is owed since you have the title in your hand? 


Hope it all works out for the best.


I'm holding my breath!
I want Taylor to win so badly!!!!  He even looked adorable in that awful jacket he had on for his first song.  Can't wait to hear his last song--on the edge of my seat.  Breathe, breathe, breathe.  I think I may hyperventilate!
Article on IRS holding refunds - sm
Any one ever have trouble with this?  It seems like every year they come up with some excuse to hold our refund....usually for 5 weeks past when it was due to be paid.  One time it was because they could not find my SE tax payments, they were looking under DH's SS#, not mine (really brillant there, 2 #s on the tax return but only check the main one); last year some trumped up thing about his ex-wife owing taxes and they wanted to make sure he was not liable (they had been divorced for 12 years at that point, and we had been married for 8), in-between these 2 excuses there was another one, though I cannot remember what it was now, in all cases except for last year they held our refund up for 5 or so weeks, last year it was supposed to be held for 3 weeks though they ended up holding it up only for about 10 days which surprised me quite a bit.  For some reason we get put on this "black list" every year, drives me nuts.  I have been audited 2 x too, though it was an internal audit at their end, all they did was send a bill, for which I knew I was at fault as I had failed to report some stuff my dad had in my name and he just would never get me the info I needed so I filed anyway without it, but it was relatively painless, though I wonder if that past error is now going to forever haunt me.  Anyone else have fun with tax time? 
Surprised they aren't holding it in India.
Why not?
Thank you - I think I have a bit to learn about shorthand - how about holding your bolded words when

I would not be holding press conferences criticizing the government I want to help me find my
daughter nor offending the citizens of the country I wanted to support me.  She has clearly lost her mind and needs a spokesperson and she should vent to her husband not the world, although her vents and concerns are unfounded according to their attorney and the prosecuters.  They did not have EVIDENCE to keep these brothers.  No EVIDENCE.  What part of this doesn't Mrs. Twitty get.
When we would do xrays, would have techs holding in position and talking to soothe and quiet them.

Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc.  Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.
to cowgirl - Last I knew, last year the job paid $25,000/year no taxes, etc.
The hospital was bombed about a year ago, but not a lot of damage, very minimal damage.

Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.

I think he makes $700,000.00 a year, and if they ask him to walk before his first year MQ has...sm

to pay him a cool 1 million dollars.  You can check this out at the Medquist website.   I think the CFO makes $350,000 a year, and the head of IT makes $250.000 a year.


P.S.  This does not include the perks, like expense account, car allowance, sign-on bonus, etc. 


Our 16 year old son has been working for a year now to pay for his truck.
He's learning how to sand and do body work and how the engine and transmission go together. My parents didn't buy cars for my siblings and I either. I had a 20+ year old beater car until I could afford to move up to a a newer one.

I see all the nice new cars parked in the high school parking lot every day. It's nice that so many disrespectful punk kids get handed something nicer to drive than what all the teachers drive. Oh, well. Honestly, I think most of them borrow Mommy or Daddy's car or are the child of a doctor who can afford to hand them everything.

Hopefully, my kids will take better care of their cars because they bought and built them on their own. You're not going to grow up to be responsible if you don't work hard for something and expect Mommy and Daddy to bail you out all the time.

Oh, my Dad lectured us on even allowing our child to have a vehicle because Dad didn't have one until after he had worked his way through college, lettered on the football team, got straight As, lettered on the baseball team, yadda yadda. He either walked or hitched a ride. Yeah, well, times were different back then, Daddy-O. LOL At least my kid has the opportunity to work and earn his own car.
IC - 30 hours week, $98K last year. So far this year - 28K. sm
Individual IC - own account(s).
