A lot of girls growing up with privilege like she had turned skank.

Posted By: Angelina is just one of them. on 2005-08-02
In Reply to: So did a lot of people, but they didn't grow up to be skanks. - she's old enough to grow some character

If your definition of skank is a female who is openly promiscuous with no regard for others, low morals, and is proud of it, there are a lot of them.  Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchey, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson (claims to be a religious girl -yeah right), Jenna Jamison, etc...there are a lot of them out there.

Rich Skank, Poor Skank

Generally speaking, people associate the rich with privilege, availability to the best.  Best education, best tutors, best doctors, best therapists, best everything.  Generally, filthy rich people don't have to work and those who are rich but do work have spouses that shouldn't have to work - and often don't anyway.  There should be no reason on earth that their children should be deprived of ANYTHING, especially their parents example as role models.  But where are the parents?  They're off on world cruises, movie debuts, fashion shows in Europe, ski trips to Aspen or the Alps. Their kids are home with nannies and au pairs who raise them because it's their job.


Most poor people, unfortunately for them, are often lumped into the entire group of "welfare moms".  There are some "welfare moms" who are just as dispicable as the rich who have no time for their children, waste their time on men instead of their kids, waste what little money they have on drugs; but then again there are some "welfare moms" who haven't had a good education and have to have minimum wage jobs, those who made bad choices about teen sex and ended up pregnant, or those who aren't even welfare moms at all but hard-working single parents who have to work 2 jobs and are STILL poor.  They're not with their children because they CAN'T be.  They can't work to support them and be there too.  The outcome is all the same...the kids get their examples from TV, music, sports, or the streets.  What is really sad though is that nowadays the example the poor kids get from entertainment are usually the skanks that came from privileged background a la Angelina Jolie, Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchey, Britney Spears, Gotti boys, Drew Barrymore, etc.


Sorry you didn't have the privilege sm
of working in this time and seeing how good it really could be!
hence the difference between a rich skank & a poor one is?
.
How dare you? I used to live in a trailer and was not a skank

Next they will charge you for the privilege of editing reports

This rate is an insult to even a newbie.  What trashy companies are out there now?   I hope management took a 75% paycut when they went to this program, as well.  It sounds like they are totally unqualified to run a business.  


Privilege and weak parental guidance helped too.

She had one messed up childhood. 


A lot of people who grew up without privilege ended up skanks too
Money or lack of money has nothing to do with it. It's whether the person has any value system, lines they will not cross, and standards set for themselves regardless of financial status.
scary part is she is adopting kids. skank-o-ramas never last. it still diminishes brad though.
i heard rumors he was dumb pretty boy and i guess angelina adds credibility to the rumors.
I had a very very mean dad growing up,
by the laws today he'd have been in jail for abuse.  Outside the home, people knew he was a rough guy, but he was a good guy, always helping people with their cars, not normally losing his temper, etc.  As he aged, he mellowed.  My oldest son know what an SOB grandpa could be.  My youngest son (10 years difference) NEVER understood or believed when we all said how mean grandpa could be.  Grandpa and my youngest son were best buddies.  My dad passed away almost 5 years ago and it hurt really bad.  He and I had become so close after he got over the mean stage and we spent a lot of time together.  I was the one he counted on when he was ill to take him to the doctors or hospital, and he knew I'd do ABSOLUTELY anything for him.  I even talked with him about salvation before he died, as I really wasn't sure and wanted to know for a fact that even though he was a good guy, that he was saved and going to Heaven.  That was really important for me to be able to deal with his death.  So, when he died, I did lose a friend as well as a father and my children their friend as well as grandpa.  Life is short, life is tough, but God is good.
This is part of growing up
I believe they have to start making their own decisions at some point in their life and living with the consequences.  Same as we all do.  I'm not saying he will regret it or not regret it, one way or the other, but either way, it should be his decision.  Take it easy, Mom. 
Growing Companies
Well I know of one company that I worked for an never paid.  How do they get more business?  Well they can undercut everyone else on the playing field because they get newbie MTs to do the work for free.   They charge the doctors less per line and make nearly 100% profit.   It is a win/win situation for the company.  I do not believe doctors check these boards and look for negative feedback.  They just go to the company who offers them the best deal, but that is just my thought on the subject . . .
Not dying, just growing!
First of all, HIPAA does not require EMR for all records by 2009. If that were the case, you would have known about it several years ago, because most physicians do not use EMR and have no plans to use EMR at this point. Most HOSPITALS don't use them, either. Even if they wanted to, there aren't that many viable products they could use!

He may be thinking of other HIPAA requirements which have affected his practice and which he doesn't like. HIPAA did require some privacy and security things which he no doubt found irritating. He now has a need to transmit his claims electronically, which probably annoys him.

I would guess that the concept of paying an MT annoys him, too, so he took it out on you by terrorizing you during your recent visit.

Second, nothing about an EMR means you can't dictate and transcribe.

If you're currently doing only small-office dictation, you might want to expand your capabilities so that you can do hospital acute care. I think that job prospects have been better there since internet-based voice file transfers became possible. There are a lot of jobs available with national services and even with large employers who will let you work from home.




Yes, and also what did HE do about the growing threat of islamofascism?

Hiring because they are growing, have some hard
left (with the company's blessing). Now they are much stronger and better and in my experience, the most professional company I have dealt with in 10 years.
No extensions..he's been growing out his hair

I've seen other pictures of him on some of his Unicef trips and he's been growing it out. I just wanna get my fingers in there...looks so silky and smooth.


Oh, your poor baby! I had one of those growing up
even with a DOCTOR performing the excision. I can't even imagine -- nor do I want to -- what your poor little guy went through. I'd tie your ex down and burn the soles of his feet to let him see how he likes it! Grr!

Okay, on a less violent note, I agree that your ex had no business taking this into his own hands. I would definitely get something in writing legally saying he can't do anything like this in the future. That's just horrific to me. I can't believe he actually thought this was a good idea!

I've had some experience over the years with plantar warts and will tell you that sometimes they even disappear on their own (my son and I both had a couple after a vacation that just went away on their own). The doctor only treated that one of mine because it had gotten too deep and was hurting when I walked. Otherwise, he would've used treatments, probably similar to what you're doing, and just monitored. I recommend getting something in writing because plantar warts usually will recur (not always) and your son may get another later after these are cleared. I'd be darn sure you have some kind of recourse if the "genius" tries this again.

I realize he thought he was doing a "good" thing for his son, but in any other circumstance, that would be considered abuse! Yikes! I hope your little guy is feeling better and that his foot heals up soon.
No way. It's a huge wave that's just going to keep growing
s
the reason it is the fastest growing sm
industry is because of the schools out there selling MT training! The schools don't know what they are doing, they are just ripping prospective MTs off.

This profession will NEVER be something that can be learned totally in a classroom setting. If you go to school then you have to be willing to work in a facility for several years. you ahve to be willing to learn to transcribe any and everything and the worst of the worst before you EVER EVER go home to work especially on a production basis.

I don't care who it ticks off but at least it can't be said I didn't tell you the way it was.

The poster "hot pink" is telling it EXACTLY how it is but she words it better than I do. Im sorry for the folks who are losing their jobs (especially the MQ folks) to VR and India etc. But I think alot of the MQ employees used MQ as their very first job and didn't get the experience they really need. MQ should have been after you have worked for several years in a facility. With the training in every kind of work type and every foreign accent, etc. etc you wouldn't have a hard time finding a job now. They are still out there.
Whisperers. Ugh. I can do any accent thanks to growing up (sm)

with my mom who had a cleft palate AND a very strong Brooklyn accent!  But why do they whisper?  Like they are embarrassed someone might hear how badly they dictate? And why can't ESL's at least TRY to improve their speech pattern?  Like the poster below who had the dictator making everything plural except when it really was plural, then suddenly it is singular.  I mean come ON. 


Good venting post Wannie.


Wow! You and I have a lot in common! Growing up in HI and having a Japanese grandmother who
practically raised me, I learned soo much on how to cook oriental and my "American" family loves it!
I can teach you all kinds of tricks - though you sound like you know most of them. Fried rice and fried noodles are super easy.

For anyone interested: Just boil 3-4 Ramen noodles for about 6-7 minutes. While that is cooking, combine 9-5-1

9 T of soy sauce
5 T sugar
1 teaspoon of fresh garlic
Mix all together. Mix may have too much sugar, in which case add more soy sauce or use less sugar.
Then add strained noodles to frying pan and the sauce - after stir frying for about 5 min. add frozen mixed veggies. You can also add a cooked meat such as chicken too! Family's fav.

Fried rice is super easy too. Cook 3-4 cups of white rice or brown rice. Let it sit overnight. When you are ready to fry them for lunch or dinner, use 2 T oil, 2-3 eggs scrambled and then cold rice - to this add approximately 5-6 T of soy sauce, cook, and then add frozen mixed veggies and fry for about 10 min.

I can make home-made sushi WITHOUT the raw fish and we love that. I can also make homemade beef broccoli.

I have tons of super easy oriental recipes. Cheaper too!

Neat sharing recipes like this...
We only have one go around in this life, don't spend it growing roots

The service area is limited, though growing.
I don't know if they are talking about WiFi or an Air Card.   WiFi connectivity is cheap, but unless you live in a large city you'll find limited access.  An Air Card (called different names depending on the company selling them) I then they start at about $249.00 and the fees are pretty hefty.  Not sure how good it works though I've heard people who loved theirs and they traveled a lot and said they never were unable to get a signal. 
It's the "fastest growing" industry in the THIRD WORLD,
And a low-paying one, at that, with few to no benefits.
Fast growing does not mean high paying nm

Considering all that you mentioned, the fact that the economy is growing is amazing. But,
f
Or.... how about the famous line "we're growing!!!"
and you see the same ad week after week after week after week. I can think of 3 places that continuously have ads out. I have worked all 3. I now know firsthand why they advertise all the time, they probably can't keep anybody more than a month or two.
sad for you girls
sounds like you ladies are finding your boys in all the wrong places.  MEN don't cheat.  BOYS cheat.  You need to find a MAN and then you will find yourself in a REAL relationship like never before and you will be HAPPY and have TRUST.  It CAN happen as it happened to me.  Good luck. 
My girls like me
Well, my girls like working for peaNUTS. Oh golly, my sense of humor has gotten the best of me, bad boy Frank.
mean girls
hope you never find yourself in a bad situation - you have no sympathy or regard for other humans
The girls are going down . . .
Kelly was soo bad. I think and hope it will be the three boys remaining. Katherine's dress was a little much wasn't it? She had visible panty lines. Chris was very sexy.
Mean Girls!

Well, here I go! Gotta vent.  We use IM to talk to the QA person and the boss for the small MTSO I work for.  Many times the boss will turn "Busy" on, so you can't ask her anything.  If she wants to talk to you, she will, but if she does not, she won't.  Same goes for the QA.  Sometimes I feel so small! I do not bug them unless I really need something, but apparently they feel I am bugging them too much.  Days go by that I never IM either one, so its not like every day I bug them! I feel very insignificant when they do this! Am I overly sensitive? 



yep...little girls are the best!! Glad I have 3 of them! Have fun! nm

re: View girls
I cannot stand the View girls. Who do they think they are! They act so high and mighty, especially Star Jones and Meredith whatshername! Please!
I think the girls forgot to ask you
if you were married and if you'd post a picture for them?  Just kidding....  It's just kind of funny to see how many responses you got from your post while new MT females get maybe one or two.  I know of a couple of dude MTs.  We had one in-house.  Poor guy. 
RadGuy not into girls
So what? Is there a problem with that?
Hey Crafty Girls
My niece wants to get into a hobby or do some crafts in her side time, but does not know where to begin.  She is a modernistic woman, age 30, not into the country motif, but wants to be crafty.  Any suggestions out there of where she might start or a craft kit I could get her for Christmas?  Thanks for any and all suggestions.
Several girls I work with do...
One has one on her ankle. Another has one in the small of her back. Another has one on her arm (like men usually do)...Personally, I think the one in the small of the girl's back is the cutest. Its just above where her low-riding jeans fit. I dated a guy who had one on his tush... a rose. He said he went through a bad divorce and then had it done thinking to himself some day he'd be somebody's rose...Now that I think back, shouldn't that have been the other way around??  LOL...Anyway, good luck, they say that hurt a bit, but they don't regret getting them. I, myself, am not into pain! LOL
26, 4&2 y/o girls, due with another girl 3/16
I was a nurse first with a neuroticism about spelling and documentation, so this was a good career move for me. It's not because I was chasing the work-at-home dream.
My boys were 3 1/2 and my girls were 2.

Cheerios in the toilet worked for me.  SINK THOSE BATTLESHIPS!!  :)


But both boys were 3 1/2 at least and when I was just about ready to give up, they just started using the bathroom as if nobody had ever told them a thing.


Pressuring and scolding are the 2 worst things you can do.  Just be laid back and all of a sudden one day, they are diaper free.  None of my 4 have ever had an accident or wet the bed since the day it kind of dawned on them.  Sort of like the day they learn to ride a bike without training wheels. :)


This too shall pass like water under the bridge.  No pun intended.  Now I'm buying diapers for my grandkids.


we are not all girls...but Bose is the best

Maybe she is only talking to the girls. (nt)

The Golden Girls...
I love the Golden Girls...though it does come on Lifetime I think like 5-6 times a day...I love that show!
girls just wanna have fun; nm

Girls and women
That, in my humble opinion, is what separates the girls from the women. With all of the references we have at our fingertips (Google is WONDERFUL), if you know how to search, you can find what you need. As a success story in MT for over 35 years, I can honestly say that from day one (and yes, I had to learn over the years), I did my very best never to ask for help UNTIL I had exhausted every means available to me and had come up empty-handed. I realize that is much easier to do this when you do not work by the line and every minute is money in your pocket...or not if you are spending a lot of time looking things up.
Stop it. I can't leave you girls alone for a second. sm
I sure am glad I don't have to work with you all who post these PMS/menopausal rantings. 
yep, I go to Old Navy and look at their clothes for my girls
Or Wal-Mart and look at all the stuff I want!  that does it for me!
What's for dinner tonight girls?

Guess what, all three kids are GIRLS! and ....
the two youngest ones are in early puberty, so we have hormones dripping from the walls around here.  My husband threatens to move into a tent in the backyard once we're all "cycling"  LOL
Want to know what's for dinner tonight girls
I am making that 20-garlic recipe from below with mashed taters and salad and some homemade bread.  Yum.
