In general business're running slower than usual but running. NM

No, it wasnt Toth.
Thanks! Have a good day!
no where did I say it wasnt work?
I only said you are not typing the lines that you should be paid BY THE HOUR and not by the line. That way, the more corrections you make the less you feel like "I'm not making any money today." Thus quality is going to be much better because the MT is not going to worry about going as fast as they can to make money and will take time out to make the corrections needed.
There should be a requirement of lines, but not PAID per line.
Sorry. I wasnt arguing with you. Im just generally
it just gets me p1ssed off, and then i start ranting!
wait..wasnt thread to send ESL's
Now you dont want work sent overseas?? I thought the thread was to send all the ESL's overseas?? I frankly dont want any work sent anywhere but for all of it to stay in America and I will do the difficult and good doctors, cause they pay my salary.
I honestly wasnt meaning to be implying your sil was gay.. I just

If offshore wasnt paid less, US MTs wouldnt

I agree. I would be long gone if I wasnt the age I am and am actually phasing out anyway.
:
That wasnt very helpful..she is confused by verb, noun, and adj. as far as how to tell
which is which. I think the "a" in front is more helpful.
Wasnt you worried that some weirdo might come back in while you werent there to monitor it? sm
It just worries me that after we get everything set up will some weirdo go in and look around, get info off of your accounts, or go look at icky stuff on the web using your computer? My husband says his tech guys at his work said there is no reason why a tech person cant "fix" your problem by walking you through it. They say there is never ever a reason to authorize someone you dont know access to your computer. I am so confused! Really want this job, but dont want to risk my computer being an open door either. 
Wasnt that a rip. They must have called every person on every account to work. I cant possibly
figure that mentality. PLUS we get nothing extra for weekends, nothing extra for holidays ZIP. They overload the accounts and so we have no work. Why would they pay weekends or holidays when they play this game. Somebody is pocketing something but it AINT THE MTs. I hope every MT in that office inundates Mt. Laurel with complaints until they replaced the people that did this and not to mention their STUPID STUPID PICKY MQ point plan. That is a horrendous joke. Somebody up there needs to be removed and quickly.
So you have also noticed the light and dark shades in text. I wasnt aware that it was like this when
I bought it. Is there anything to make this better at all. I just bought this whole computer system with LCD screen and I guess I will call them and see what can be done or just get used to it. I like it but not so much having the text look like that. Have you spoken to anyone about yours.
Wasnt' that post scary? Isn't it UNREAL?? Who cares if we type drugs wrong, right?
I could go on and on about the STUPID mistakes MTs make - perfect dictators - just stupid lazy mistakes - wrong drugs and meds entirely - happens all the time. Forget dosages. If doctors had to rely on this typed garbaged (used typed intentionally - transcribed doesn't fit), they'd kill most of us as patients. And some MTs have an attitude about it? So frightening. But lets' give 'em bonuses and incentives to GET IT RIGHT!
My post disappeared. I wasnt being disrespectful with the TV just tired and didnt proof before subm
Sorry if I offended anyone when I saw it I had a good laugh with everyone else but still thought there was good advice in the post but I guess not -- my apologies if I offended and will watch my ShortHand lol.
I'm running XP pro w/sp2 and I keep
my machine in tip top condition w/regards to antivirus, antispyware, firewall updates etc...
everything is running well except for DQS which is still lagging today..
Running
Running and cardio in general is really awesome, but make sure you are doing some weight training. You will have faster results and not so flabby when that fat starts coming off. Cardio will burn calories when exercising, but weight training will help burn 24 hours. Burn the butter baby!!!
He might not know about running a
top notch company, but he knows about being a good lover. That's for sure.
They must be running more than 1 ad.
I saw the first one and now it's got the airplane.
What happens when the do get th EMR up and running
Then you won't have that account. Sounds like they needs something fast and temporary. Stick to your current rate.
I can see what is running, but how do you them off?
Thanks
Is DQS up and running now? nm
//
now we see who's running this
You're right. You're best bet is to wait until payday to quit. These people are nasty. Do you think she thinks she can take advantage of you because you're foreign (your words, not mine)? You obviously aren't that foreign (my words this time) or you wouldn't be able to get the job done correctly. $10 an hour is not enough for the crap you're putting up with, and you could be doing way better. IC is supposed to be where the money's at because you don't get benefits. I say drop and find something better!
Running on MT
First of all, I love your little avatar!  Second, thank you so much for the weblink. It is greatly appreciated.
It just keeps running...
but nothing on the screen...The Geek Squad said it was the internal modem that you would use for dial-up and they removed that and it started fine...now it is back to the same thing...I am thinking it is the video card as well...I am taking it back to them since I literally just got it back a few days ago...
All boards are up and running.

I agree with the others about maybe running an ad in the
newspaper to see about doing private housekeeping instead of hotel housekeeping. It pays more and there's less yuck factor. Also, what about selling on ebay or Half.com? I supplemented my MT income for a while selling stuff from around the house. After that, I went to yard sales and bought books and collectibles to resell. I did OK, but it got to the point where I had to do one or the other due to time constraints. MT won out because I don't have to package anything or drive to the post office.
and they are running out of work
I have been switched accounts 3 times now, because mine keep running dry. Promises, promises.
yes, and running water too.

Hey! Me Too. Hospital is running over! nm

running a fan helps too
It drowns out the rest of the noises while everyone else is up and about.
I think they have had one running since 1996!

Running away fast...
Thank you as well NM, I will certainly take your advice!!!
Cheers!!!
Not running out of work
Actually there seems to be tons of work on the account I am on, but I just can't get my line count up. I know I am doing quality work, just not quantity, and would rather quit than be fired! It seems like for the first hour everything is great then every report I get is a different dictator. Just can't get the hang of their Ex-Text system fast enough either. At my other job, which is online based through FTP, I did about 300 lines/hour during my shift last night, so I am really not THAT slow :)
I did e-mail my resignation this morning but still have not heard back...At this point, I don't even want to finish in 2 weeks, Just want to be done wasting everyone's time.
exactly!!! They are all running factories...nm
yeah, but we do that, and they will be running an ad--sm
on here and replacing us with newbies who will gladly take the 7 cpl just for the experience. BTW, I make less than that, but gross line, and do quite well with it. gross line does make a difference. just have to work harder, I guess. I don't mind, but that is just me...not stepping on anyone's toes or looking for an arguement. JMO.
No, you'll keep running into the same (sm)
problems with Unlimited LD, regular phone service. VOIP is Voice Over Internet Protocol. Instead of having phone lines, you get a box from AT&T Broadband that allows you to make calls using your phone connected to the Internet. This is a completely different part of AT&T; it's not a long distance phone plan. Someone else mentioned Vonage, which is also VOIP. It cut my business phone bill by about 60%. You can use it with a C-phone, too. Here is the link to AT&T CallVantage. Hope this helps...

Running Vista
Same happened to me when I recently got new laptop with Vista. Wav pedal worked but had to have Dell go remote to install a reader for my files...I use Express Scribe. I also had to adjust my settings for the pedal.
Hope this helps.
They are running businesses SM
and a new MT is costly to train in the way you want. As far as making sure EVERY report is 98% or better, I'm sorry but there is no medium or large company doing that. As long as MTs are paid on production, errors are going to be made. I think you probably need to focus your attention on the work you are doing, don't bother with other people's reports. As for people working more than *they should be,* again, production is the key and the more an MT types, the better their paycheck is and the better the supervisor likes them.
What anti- anything are you running?
Kind of hard to know without more information. What antispyware and antivirus programs are you running first off? Have you defragmented your computer? Have you run your updates? That is why it is good to do the things it states in that tutorial, and yes, that is not the end-all site, of course. Like I said, others may have better ideas and sites, programs, etc. Sometimes, the companies we work with have us download software that our operating systems will not sustain well and make them unstable. Just a thought. Hope this helps. Let me know. Talk to guys tomorrow.
Both programs running (sm)
will make your computer run slow. I tried One Care, didn't like it. Also, I don't run PC Tools Spyware Doctor, just put it on when I'm finished for the day to scan computer at night. The One Care combined with Spyware Doctor are the culprits. Try turning them off and see what happens. Good luck.
re running with the big dogs
that goes for ANYONE in ANY profession, if you can't do your job well, do something else! but I think your attitude of lumping all podiatrists in with a couple lousy dictators calls for an attitude adjustment! I have worked for some very intelligent good podiatrists who were also good dictators, and learned a lot from them!
Not running out of work.
The department is not running out of work at all. I am trained on a few other accounts as well with varying difficulty.
I will keep you updated. I'm sure if I am fired, I will be coming on here to vent, but hopefully that is never the case. I really like my job :)
5 accounts and running out of work
What's wrong is not on your end.
What's wrong is each of those 5 accounts having 17 people on each of them who have to switch back forth and maintain productivity.
Production and TAT improve if the MT is on one acount long enough to get a rhythm going.
There is also the problem of recognizing doctor's names. If 4 different doctors are mentioned in your report and you are on 5 different hospitals....well, you know where I'm going with this one.....
anyone running low on work at MQ today
These are the clowns that are running our companies!
It's no wonder the US is going down the toilet.
At Spheris, if the work was running low
I would get an email from my supervisor stating such and telling us we could flex our time or use PTO. She was very much in communication with us at all times.
I personally think that the best communication between employer/supervisor and MT would be an email stating the workload is low, asking if you want to flex your time or use PTO and when do you want to make up your time so they can staff accordingly. Would be nice, huh?! :)
Keep running out of work. I think they overhired.

I can't think of NOT using it - I never heard of not running it. I do every time. nm

Who has the longest-running account?
I have an account I have been transcribing since August 1997. How bout U?
I think Pete's Pond is up and running again...can anyone..sm
tell me how to have this play so I can watch it while working? I did it last year but can't remember how I did it! Thanks.
Running of the bulls? nothing but bull
This is once again an example of senseless slaughter of a poor defenseless animal. Shame on you Spain, for allowing this as well as bullfighting to to go in this day and age. Any one who gets thier jollies watching animals suffer is a deeply disturbed individual and I believe this says alot about our society and where we are and where we are going. And we call ourselves civilized? How different is this from throwing the Christians to the lions in ancient Rome? ITs just reversed, only the animals are getting thrown to the humans.
