Absolutely not. It's the one thing that is unforgiveable.

Union? ABSOLUTELY! And one more thing - (sm)
later in that same TV show about what workers were "worth", etc., someone said that contrary to what some people would say about paying workers making them lazy, or costing companies too much, they found that the exact OPPOSITE was true. When they paid the workers more, they not only had to struggle less to live, but they valued their own work more, when they realized that THEY were valued. Especially in the case of women, who tend to change jobs more frequently than men (due to the LOW PAY!), they found that as the rate of pay went up, the rate of employee loss went DOWN, and the quality of the work the better-paid workers performed improved dramatically - directly related to increased pay. In the long run, it often cost these companies LESS to pay their workers MORE.
It's ABSOLUTELY a power-thing, & it's easy for them to
They manage MT because they can't get a management job anywhere else. MT is notorious for not screening most of the whackos they put in management positions. At medical centers, they often 'promote' inept, mentally unstable employees into MT management as a way of 'getting rid' of them, since most MT departments are out of sight in a basement, or off-site. So then the inept are in control of MT, and in order to make themselves look good (and qualify for that next raise -- the one WE don't ever get --) they feel they have to make those around them look bad.

Ebonics: Not a black thing or white thing. (sm)

I don't think there's any cause to get upset or defensive here.  Look it up on line...even colleges are offering courses in Ebonics!  ...well of course they are more sociology-type courses, but still, people are PAYING to learn about the why's and how's of this "other" language.


A quote from one of the sites I found:

"UT-Austin's "Introduction to the Study of African American English," teaches students that the sentence, "Nobody didn't leave" is not "mainstream English with mistakes," but rather a legitimate English dialect. "Ebonics: Myth and Facts" and "African-American English" are both offered at Harvard. Penn and UCLA also promote Ebonics as a legitimate dialect in, "Introduction to African American and Latino English" and "Afro-American Sociolinguistics: Black English," respectively."

Best thing - I am my own boss and my own emloyee, worse thing - I am my own boss and my own

you are absolutely right and I know because I know
which is just as good as knowing any other way.

a policy of kindness is the only *way* to go....

Stay at the Polynesian - it's right on the Disney Property and it is OH SO LUXURIOUS! Very reasonably priced, too for what you get. They have a great luau (sp?), and you can walk out your hotel room and hop on the tram straight into the park.

Speaking of parks, you MUST to go Epcot and bring lotsa de casha for the country of Germany - they have colored crystal that will knock your socks off and your pocketbook clear out of your purse.

IT IS TO DIE FOR! THE POLYNESIAN AND EPCOT!

...the immature vitriolic attitude some people on this board have. If it bothers you so much to see what may seem to you a no-brainer question posted, please feel free to move on, sparing us your crappy, holier-than-thou attitude. I'm absolutely ashamed to have people like you part of my MT community.
ABSOLUTELY!!!
MQ has hurt too many people and their families. I don't even work for them, but the hospital that I work for bought their DQS program, which is wonderful, but it also included the DocQmanage program which CHEATS TRANSCRIPTIONISTS!

I agree with you! However, I do not consider people taking necessities to survive "looters." HUGE difference with someone taking shoes, jewelry, TVs, and nonessential items. These are 2 different classes totally. People trying to survive should not even be compared to a looter. I was all for shooting any and all looters that were caught in the act!

MQLOVER would get upset. Yeah you sure did dig yourself into a big one. Just keep on going and may be you can find some more people to hire in China when you get there.

I've been working a 13-hour per day schedule recently (getting ready for changes coming up). While I do slow down by the end of the day, I'm still holding quite steady and a decent line count. I've been accomplishing anywhere from 3016 (my low so far on the 13-hr schedule) to 3653 (my high so far on this schedule). TOUGH? YES! Possible??? Absolutely.


Absolutely! Go for it!

Certainly the length of time it would take to complete the transcript would be dependent on a lot of things, but I personally would not bid less than $40 per audio hour, and due to the availability requirement of -- "I need for you to indicate your days and hours of availability. These
days and hours should NOT be flexible. These should be the days and
times that you are ALWAYS available to work. You will be receiving jobs
during these days and hours without advance notice and you are expected
to do them, no excuses."

I would not even do it for the $40 mentioned above.
no you are absolutely not alone!!! nm

Absolutely not. They will appreciate it more

and will take better care of it if they have to work for it.  We obtained a loan for our son to have his car and then he had to pay us back monthly, as well as keep up his insurance payments, car repairs, etc.  However, I do know that A LOT of parents feel it is a requirement for them to buy their children cars.  I personally think that is asking for trouble in the long run.  Nothing in this life is free and kids need to know that, especially since they're getting ready to enter the real world.

I've been doing this for 20 years...don't want to do anything else.
Absolutely NOT. I take
every single job that comes to me...good, bad...long, short...do my best and go on to the next job.
That has absolutely zero to do with this. She could have SM
been an atheist, devil worshipper, a Buddhist, and what she did would still have changed the world.
ABSOLUTELY!
I have hired numerous MTEC graduates, and have not had a problem with any of them.  They are excellent MTs.  The program is worth every penny.  3 of the girls I hired five years ago are now making over 25/hour on production.
Absolutely yes!
The question really should be, if Michelle were healthy enough to skate at nationals, would she have been on the team.  With all else being equal, she would have been in the top 3 and therefore would have gone anyway.

I have worked for over 25 years for a major medical institution as an MT, and it all goes away in two weeks. First came outsourcing to India (clinic AND academic), and now comes the EMR. There is very little for me to do these days, except try to edit what little academic comes through from India. I have come to the sad conclusion that quality doesn't matter when it can be done so much cheaper overseas, broken English isn't that big a deal when it all gets dumpted into an EMR anyway, and that now, at the age of 49, I have to find something else I can do to get by until retirement, since I honestly believe outsourcing is here to stay. Physicians with whom I've had a wonderful working relationship through the years have practically ignored me the last few months. One doctor half-heartedly offered me something for two days a week, but it was too little, too late, and too sad for me to accept. I would never, ever promote this field to anybody, since when I see an entire medical center outsource and go totally EMR, there just is no demand for what I do any more.

MT is a dead-end, no respect, joe-job with no room for advancement, best suited to people with limited social skills and low expectations for themselves. Anyone who wants to better themselves instead of stagnate in limbo should move on. I have.
Not from PA, NJ.... but absolutely looking
for a different company. Let me know if you still want me to drop you an e-mail. Thanks for your reply.

I work for a national as an IC doing acute care from home.  My schedule is flexible, I have direct deposit, and I get great feedback from QA and my supervisor.  I am not "hounded" by anyone.  I am left to do my work in peace, which is the way I work best.  Wouldn't have it any other way!

Hey Absolute~
You have my DREAM job!!! :)

You are absolutely right. I think
because this is an anonymous board people think they can be rude to one another. Would those same people make the same comments to their friends faces if asked the same questions? I don't think so.
You are absolutely right!
It's all about the Lord and resurrection day!   My only daughter will be out of pocket so it'll be pretty quiet here!

You are right on for doing it!

Hello again KB! You have absolutely
nailed it on my feelings of QA. We think identically all over this forum - its almost scary!! Maybe we're related! Thanks so much for your thoughts!
