I have an aloe plant
I think I'll try some out. Thanks for the tip!
Anyone ever plant hybrid poplar trees? They are those fast grow ones
that are supposed to grow 8 feet a year.  Some claim they send up too many "sucker" shoots from the root areas, some love em.  I need a wind break on the N. and W. sides of my lot, and was thinking of these.  Anybody ever plant these?
You must be a MQ mgmt plant. nm
NOT
They laid off over 200 people at the plant
near me.  I'm sure there have been layoffs elsewhere.  I'd say that is the problem not waiting on parts.   When they opened the new plant here one of the requirements was that all suppliers had to be within 30 minutes of Dell.  
Tell anyone who will listen. Plant the seeds of worry in your own - sm
physician, HMO, or whatever, that you and others don't want ANY of your personal or medical info. going offshore. Ask who transcribes their work. If they say they don't know, raise your eyebrows and ask WHY they don't know. If a record is important enough to be in a patient's chart, or even be dictated, it's a document that could end up in court someday. They might want to stack the odds in their favor by at the very least having accurate, intelligible documents. Ask how you can get copies of your own medical records. (Probably the Med.Records Dept. of that facility). Call them. Ask for your own copies. Go over them with a fine-toothed comb. Scream bloody murder to the MR Dept. and your doctor if there are ANY mistakes. Ask MR for the name of the company that does the transcription. If they don't know, asy WHY they don't know. (They probabaly DO know). Do some detective work and find out if that company offshores. If it does, and the doc or MR Dept. told you that facility NEVER offshores, then tell them they better rethink that.
Had cottonwoods. Be careful not to plant close to house
with the water lines. They are supposed to be pasture trees but they make for quick landscaping. The branches were weak and broke after here and there and one was too close to house. Had to put in a herbicidal strip of some kind to kill it before the root lifted up the kitchen floor.
Homemade cookies? A nice potted plant?
What do they like? Do they have a hobby, or collect anything?
You're supposed to plant them in beds and line the bed with chicken wire and then place the bulbs

on top of the wire and cover.  This keeps the critters from getting to them, but is a lot of work. 


I think I see her outside my window!! ;-) nm

Why don't you grow up
and while you are at it, go take a shower and do your hair for once in your life and put make up on. It will do you good to look presentable for once.

Enough already...come on, grow up!
Why do you even waste space slinging insults? 
Grow up
How disgusting. Because this lady hit the nail on the head, you have to reply with a personal attack. Go look in the mirror.
Can we say GROW UP???

Grow up...nm

Grow up already
If you can't "bring yourself" to type a sequence of letters that form a word -no matter how offensive - you are in the wrong field.

and yes, there are legal implications. Verbatim meanst verbatim.

just grow with it
i know its hard. but try to set the fear aside. You are still there, so they must plan to keep you (3 months is the usual probation period). Just do the best you can. Conquer this obstacle and then you can decide if it is what you want to keep doing or not. I still regret quitting something i was pursuing decades ago, that i quit out of fear. If you quit, make it for the right reasons, not because you were afraid of not making it, or afraid of your boss. Believe me, if I can do this, so can you (I flunked my first transcription course). I'm an MT now for 30+ years.
Why Don't You Grow Up?
Your posts are getting tedious, not to mention very boring.
alt printscreen for the window you are in..
just regular printscreen for the whole desktop. THEN. Open Paintbox (or Paint, whatever its called) and do Edit/Paste - then save - best to save as a .jpg, then it won't take up as much space as a bitmap (.bmp) - I save all mine in the "my pictures folder) or you can make one special.
Chickadees at my window...
Strangest thing just happened.  A chickadee flew to the window chirping away.  He just kept going away and flying back to the window again chirping loudly.  I finally went out to add more seeds to the feeder.  He then stopped trying to get into the window.  I've never seen anything like it.  I guess I have been trained by a chickadee. lol:)
Why does my Winscribe window

disappear between every radiology job (and that means at least one hundred times a day)?   It falls into the abyss known as the margin.  I have to minimize all other windows for it to peek from the corner where I can grab onto it and drag it back into view...arrrrgh


Long difficult day I am having...


I have a chair next to the window
so the furries can jump up and look out when they wish.
i grow strawberries,
in the garden; what i do with them may not work for store-bought ones -- don't know. But when i bring them in, i rinse them and let dry in a collander. I hull them and if there are any too soft or bad spots, carve them out, then put them in a bowel, cover with seran wrap and leave in frig. I don't think i've ever had them go moldy. If you freeze them, they freeze better if they are sliced, but they freeze whole pretty well too.
grow up ladies
Don't you get tired of the cat fighting? It isn't any wonder you don't produce any lines.
Grow up? How about you wise up?
So, you mean to tell me that having 1 or 2 glasses of wine or beers is enough to call someone drunk? Come on and WISE UP!

Again, I didn't ask WHO GETS DRUNK AND TRANSCRIBES, I asked who has a few drinks while transcribing.

Being in the vicinity of MY OWN HOME having a drink or TWO and transcribing is no big deal to me. Some of you people are SO UPTIGHT and I think NEED TO DRINK!

HICCUP, pardon me!
grow up........*shrugs*............nm

It has to grow back a little to wax or to use any other
only way to really not have it grow back anymore than stubble would be to shave and I wouldn't recommend shaving. The other option would be to use cream bleach. Also, for waxing, it just has to be long enough for the hair to grip the wax ~ it doesn't have to be full grown or anything. =)
Y'all need to grow up

I have 35+ years in this field -- started out on the job with a typewriter and "tanks of dictation"  I for one read posts and it's " I only want to work Monday through Friday, I can't work because of kids, whine, complain, etc, I need benefits so on and so forth  -- I have been working for 30+ years   -- I KNOW how to search the internet, how to spell and I will spend time researching etc  -- maybe for those of you, PRIVATE insurance is an option  -- I know in my own personal experience last year when I broke my leg and was in a cast for 2 months, my hospital bill INCLUDING follow up was $26.


So, you didn't get a "Christmas/holiday bonus", so you didn't get an MT week gift  -- right now, be GLAD you have a J-O-B and quiit whining and complaining and most of all GROW UP!!!


btw  -- s/o makes $22 an hour  -- he "got a raise" but come down to the nitty gritty, he LOST HIS RAISE and is making $3.00 LESS -- no benefits either


 


No, I didn't mean the suggestion window -sm
I meant I deliberately, because I caught myself, for instance, typing CD for common duct because I forgot that I already had used CD for cystic duct and flying along I thought CD was for common duct. Of course, there's C/D ratio too and sometimes you need to type just CD, so I have all of them under CD and I have to pick from a list which one I want in there so I don't screw it up.

You can add messages and remarks. Like if you can't keep straight Celebrex and Cerebyx, you can make little reminders which is which so you don't put the wrong one in.
My cat loves to sit on the window sill too...
I make sure and keep the blinds up some during the day so she can do so. I think she likes sunbathing. My other cat could care less. He's getting older though. He is definitely past the age of wanting to "hunt" anymore. The youngest still trys to get out sometimes, but is generally pretty happy sitting at the window (this was a wild cat rescued out of the woods too BTW). The older one we let in the backyard with us sometimes. He just sits there and walks around some, but that's it. None are allowed outside by themselves though, especially since we just moved and they could run off and get lost easliy.

I've had inside and outside cats my whole life. It is a personal decision and just depends on the circumstances I think.
Isn't there Okay or Accept, etc. at the top on the right at the Ctrl/J window? Need to do that af
d
....nm up there. And I meant to say a Suggestions window so you
s
You might also try turning off the suggestion window SM
or whatever it is you have for a while. I use Shorthand, but it's pretty much the same thing. That way you could give yourself a list of often-used abbreviations to memorize and get very comfortable with and/or a rule that tells you what a lot of your abbreviations are going to be. As you get comfortable with those few, you'll end up loving them and wanting MORE, MORE, MORE. With that attitude, you can turn the window back on or give yourself yet another list and another rule or two to get used to.

Just think, if you only used abbreciations for the words "the patient" (tp or ?), "hydrochlorothiazide" (hycx or ?), and "blood pressure" (bp or ?) you'd never type those three out again and would be saving that much time with each of them. Start small and unspook yourself.
It's Alt= to make it show in the window. sm
Much easier that way. Don't know anything about Editscript.
Close that window in the task bar....not
by clicking the "x" in the message box.  I was told that when I had my computer cleaned of the AVG thing months ago.  Not all of them, but some of them, have the "x" linked to where it's the same as clicking "yes" to download. Sneaker characters, they are! 
In a big hurry to grow up at 20, BIG MISTAKE

No one at 20 has the life experience to know herself, let alone know what to want and expect in another person.


Second time, and successful time, age 39. Better to choose than to "settle" for whatever's in front of you at the time.


I just sit on my fat butt and watch it grow. nm

So we should assume you grow all of your own food? sm
Do you grow all of your own food, raise your own cattle and chickens, and raise your own sheep, which you then shave yourself and use the wool to make your own clothing? Because even if you're walking to the store, you're still supporting gas-driven machinery. How do you think all of those supplies get to the store? On the back of someone's bicycle?
Oh grow up - such a sore loser!

Oh, grow up. There is no teacher here to be a "pet" for. (sm)

Unless you're paying me per line to obsess about my grammar and spelling on this message board, I am not going to stress my grammar and spelling.  It's just like when I'm talking with friends.  I don't say "I cannot" and "he will", I use contractions.  However, I would not use contractions in a report.  Casual conversation, like here, is different than professional communication, like in an email to a client, or professional work. 


In short, get over yourself. 


 


I've wondered where B. Grow is (sm)
I bought my copy of Smartype from her when I worked at Winsolutions with her. I used to visit her website every one in awhile, too, for Smartype tips.  I noticed that the website is down now, so I'm not sure how to get ahold of her anymore. Good advice, though.  I'm sure she'd have some ideas.
Pity my employers? Furthermore, grow up!

No one said you have to train them. You just have to grow up and be above the bullstuff.
This is the difference between a good QA/mentor/Editor and a "QA person" -- I'll take my time and help someone if they need it, and I *am* a "good QA".
Not going to make them grow up any faster sm
Sorry, but I have a duty to protect my child until they are an adult. When they are older, if they request that I leave the room during the exam, that is one thing, but no doctor is going to tell me I have to leave the room. My kids know about sex and that no one is to touch them except a doctor and only if necessary during an exam. But they are also still children, and while I don't baby them, I am in no hurry for them to lose their innocence. I absolutely love that my 11-y/o DD still loves her stuffed animals and plays Littlest Pet Shop games on her Nintendo DS. Kids these days are growing up too fast, and while I may be looked at as giving her a sheltered life, I would much rather have that than her trying to act like she is 16 already.
I'll give that a try since I'm in the 14-day trial window
Thanks for the advice.
Nationals with 10- to 12-hour window to work 8 hrs?

I did a search in the archives, but the info I found was a little outdated. Thanks for any help you can provide.


Shorthand can be set to show a preferences window. I like it

just like quality care for the patient is going out the window-nm

I have a 10-hour window to work 8 hours
and that works fine for me.
I am so frazzled I can't even find a Search window! sm
This is my first day on Edit Script and my mind has short circuited! I tried to find the Search window to no avail. Can you give me a hint??
LOL! Know just how you feel. They are near impossible to grow in SoFla.

So did a lot of people, but they didn't grow up to be skanks.
She's gross.
