And name-calling makes one look more ignorant than ever, dear.

There's a name for you too, sweetie, but it's "politically incorrect" to use it. You know what it is though.

Now go read the New York Times and dream of a better world while we all stand in a circle holding hands and singing Koom-by-ah!

Wondering what part of Fanbelt, Idaho this one's from.

sorry but the Bible isn't ignorant, dear.

might be careful of that violent tendency as well, all that hammering on someone's head.

besides, everyone here is entitled to their opinion.


Name-calling is the first sign of an ignorant person

Well that is real mature, calling me a rimrod. Why the name calling?
I am not telling everyone to leave this site. I gave info about MTSTars.net to let us, who have been on this site MTStars.com for many years to make up their own minds. YESTERDAY, I never got a straight answer about the owner of this board and now I know, but I was in the middle of asking questions earlier and my posts kept getting deleted. I was not calling anyone names, like YOU have and I am not insuling anyone like YOU have. NOT offshoring? Well he is from Pakistan am I right? I still do not know the truth. Can you supply me with more information about Dr. Ahmed?
UR Ignorant
Can you read?  Did you even read my post?  I am not whining, I am trying to explain to you why some people can not leave their jobs.  How dare you presume to know me or anything about me?  You are starting to sound suspiciously like MQLover, Chucky, Frankie Boy, Zipper, et al....
How ignorant are you?
That has got to be the most ludicrous statement that I have ever heard. Such arrogance coming from where? A fellow American? Who do you think you are making a statement like that? Of course they have a right to earn a living just as we do. Yes they are mostly a very poor people and yes they are nice. But of course, you can't get over yourself for one second now can you? What makes you think that because we are Americans we are SO MUCH BETTER than anyone else in the world? That is just absolutely not true. If you can believe that for one second then you truly are living with rose colored glasses on and I for one feel sorry for you. That is a pathetic existence to have.
You think I am ignorant?!....
I told you how many ILLEGALS I have known on the post below. I am curious to know how many YOU know. Don't tell people they are ignorant until you know the situation. Find out the facts before you speak. I usually do. I can take shelered because I am from a small town. I can even take naive because I have been there before. But I can not and will not take being called IGNORANT by someone who does not even know me OR know my circumstances. I have never BEEN nor am I IGNORANT. That is a very rude thing to say. I have never called anyone that on this board and I haven't seen other people call anyone that either. Have a little respect.
You are very ignorant about depression and antidepressants...SM
The drugs you list are NOT "happy" pills and are NOT addicting. They correct a chemical imbalance in the brain and (hopefully) allow the depressed person to feel somewhat NORMAL again. They are not uppers as you imply.

Unless you've experienced the living hell that is clinical depression and the wonders these medications can do, keep your mouth shut.


I do, but am software ignorant - if it's about the prog

They're ignorant - some hubbies...sm

That's why I don't want another one....did it once - won't do it again.  My daughter, by the way, got me the only thing I wanted, a dish garden....and it was in a big turtle with a little baby turtle hanging onto the big (mommy) turtle.  I love dish gardens. 


The older children will eventually GET it, especially when THEY become parents.  *lol*


Life brings with it the ignorant!
Most patients probably don't realize that it is the nurse that handles their care essentially.  She/he alerts the doctor with problems, questions that arise, health status, etc.  The physician will "round", but it is the nurse that handles the "triage" tasks so to speak.  The patients are usually nice to the doctors, but expect the nurses to be their "slaves".  Yes, I am also a patient advocate since I've lost both of my parents in an inpatient healthcare setting and both with terminal diseases, but I also believe that a hospital is not a "hotel" where every whimsical desire is granted.  To understand why a nurse would say that is quite easy.  Transcriptionists sit at desks and look like secretaries.  It is only when the Transcriptionist is not there that the triumphs are noticed by others.  When I left a hospital setting, I had to train six, I mind you, (6) people to do my job.  I was full-time.  It is funny how much transcriptionists do that goes unnoticed until they are no longer there to do it.  What a smack in the face that hospital got, and it is a shame because it is the patient that will suffer.  Unfortunately, we don't usually get the recognition we deserve, but at least we can sleep at night knowing we've contributed.  I wonder if the same posters on these boards that complain they are unappreciated are the same ones complaining about having to work the holidays???????  I'm sure I'll get blasted for that one!  Oh well, I love my job and most people do that are in the transcription field, hence, they would not do it at all!  Wouldn't most of you agree?  I don't want to offend anyone, but it is just how I feel!  Be safe out there! 
He is the one doing the wrong spelling and we are ignorant???

What an embarrassing, ignorant post
you really ought to be ashamed of your comments but I'm not taking any bets.
Forgive an ignorant question

What's a gross line?


Stupid, I know.  I really don't know what that is, though. Thanks.


That's a pretty ignorant statement - do you know what "customs" are???
Women are to be accompanied by men and are to follow the laws in the Middle East.
I love how stating what I believe to be factual is ignorant- this has nothing
customs or what their religious beliefs or morality is. I am just saying it will most likely be nothing like she expects, certainly nothing like the freedom we have here in the U.S., and she should think long and hard about it. Go in with your eyes open. Boy, the things people take "offense" at on this board is unbelieveable.
can you explain EMR - I know about voice recognition, but I am ignorant
about this.  How exactly does it work.  I had always assumed it was for lab results and such.  Do they do clinic notes, letters, discharge summaries this way?
WHATEVER. I can't handle ignorant people, which means this conversation is over.
SEE YA!

This is the dawn of my happy day, and I will NOT forget it again! Thanks Michelle!!  Well, Dr. Burpinchortle is calling me - he has a STAT report! Really, its been fun, and I would love to do it again! Maybe tomorrow night??  This was really fun! I mean it!!  Good night!
What an ignorant reply, not all oriental countires are in Asia, also in North Africa, see below..
Since when is 'oriental' offensive or an embarrassment?

On what planet do you live?
And in the year 2001?
Thank you dear!

But, my dear, you see, when you are able to

see another MTs line counts and the job #s that they have done, and how they skip many, many reports, when the work was sent and how the job #s went for each job type, you then KNOW when someone is cherrypicking!!!  It is also great that you are able to go into the system and check out the job #s she DID and know that they were the best of the best dictators!!  Believe me, it does make a huge difference to those of us who do not cherry pick.  The account I work on is relatively small and only 5 or 6 MTs working on the account.  When the cherry picker has her two days off, I really, really make great line counts.  The rest of the week is a real struggle.  I say keep showing the other MTs work. 


This is definitely not someone's hallucination; it is a reality and happens all the time.  Once an MT gets all the proof she needs, then it is only common sense that she should go to the supervisor to point it out and the situation should be corrected.  What I try to do, at times, is go on very early in the morning, around 2:00 AM; do all the "crap" that she left for me plus then be able to get some of the good guys.  There have been times where I've been tempted to skip the bad just like her and leave her the bad!!  However, then I feel guilty!!  Cherry pickers need to be ousted from MT work.  Do the job that comes up and be happy about it!!


Then my dear ..
You have no clue about the workings of an inner city.  I am not saying walk into bullets or gangs .. what I am saying is that you have no clue how the plantation mentality looks to the rest of this world .. lining up all the wrongs do not make them right and it is downright ignorant to be so obviously insensitive to those who live differently than you do.  Mother help us all when there are people like you who have no concern for simple human suffering .. this is not a race issue god blast it .. it is a human issue and we all got here and are going out of here the same damned way. 
Hello there my dear
You HAVE deserved it honey. But this post is neither the time or place to discuss your "bonus." (I am chuckling and I think you know why).

My dear, I think you know your beauty is more important to me than any report you could ever type. Perhaps, the next time I drive by, you could be in, um, lets say, your birthday suite? UH OH - I hope my wife don't catch me on here (shaking in my boots).

Smooches and Kisses my lovely.

Frankie Boy
Sorry, my dear
I am sorry you had to share it with so many women that night. It was getting difficult to get 15 gals hands around it.
Believe it or not, my dear...
Until recently MQ was THE best company around - and many of us do not want to "jump ship" just yet - we're trying to figure out how to "take a sad song and make it better" and not have to go to these other truly foul companies that aren't big enuf to pay what MQ pays and benefits MQ has which most other companies can't begin to compete with. Its like New York City - people complain about its problems all the time but nobody wants to leave to go to Podunk, Iowa. Well, we don't want to go to Podunk Transcription Company, thank U very much. MQ has a huge amount of potential and the fact they are going thru changes is to be expected - and we have every right to work together on a solution for us all. So go back to Podunk!
OH DEAR!

Much work!  I would like to add ADHD has nothing to do with intelligence and autistics would never be able to speak out a story as you have detailed, or plan a revenge, especially weeks ahead.  Her previous environment and genes I think win the cause of her behavior, and sociopath does comes to mind, seriously, and children do and are maturing much earlier now-a-days. . .especially females. 


Thanks dear!!!!nm

Oh dear!!
Yes, veteran MT made a typo on CONTINUE....happens from time to time with rheumatoid arthritis and AGE....still trying to make a decent living....even after a big pay cut for me and fellow account MTs from my current employer without a reasonable explanation. Unfortunately, I do not see the situation changing for the better for any American MT. Have a beautiful Saturday.
Dear RE
I believe you should contact an attorney or Google "free legal advice" and ask these questions. I do think you would still be violating your non-compete even though they pursued you. You should explain that to the company recruiting you and they should understand. Good luck to you.
Dear QA . . .
I understand there are two sides. I have nothing against QA -- really I don't. I feel we all learn and better ourselves from mistakes. However, I think everyone needs to be on the same page and QA would do better to leave out nasty comments when there is no need for them. Really I left a blank while typing an ESL doc that I had only typed 1 time before and QA faulted me for omitting dictation? Since when is leaving a blank for a word or two you cannot understand omitting dictation? And when I questioned in writing the "QA Head" about conflicting feedback she/he never bothered to respond. Do you have any idea how confusing that is? I want to do right by the company and be a good MT but how is that possible when no two QA people follow the same rules? I am the first to admit I am far from perfect but I give it my all. With almost every other MT job I have had I was taken off QA within a week or two. I guess I was already angry because my check was late, this only added fuel to the fire. There are days I feel good and days I am made to feel lower than dirt. I pray this board will always be here for those of us that need to scream and vent. :-)
no, dear, it's all about you and how you - sm
and how you utilize yourself with the knowledge and tools you have accumulated.

sheesh...you just Won't (not Don't) get it.
Oh, dear.
Doctors do not take it kindly when you take a swing at them. (Just ask that unfortunate, long-gone children's dentist I once went to....)

But seriously... take a good deep breath, let it out, then take another one, and remember, it'll all be over quickly. And whatever you do, do NOT watch that needle coming at you!!

Interestingly... I was about your age when I thought I was going to have to change jobs. Of course, back then, I'd been doing MT for about 8 years on typewriters, and I'm not sure they'd invented the word "ergonomics" back then... and the workman's comp carrier laughed in my face, because they hadn't figured out the concept of repetitive strain injuries back then either, except when it came to farm workers using short-handled hoes.... But "girls" sitting at desks? Fuhgeddaboudit. Go fix your lipstick, and shut up. (No, not quite, but close.)

Anyway... keep that left wrist immobilized as much as you possibly can, and watch out that you don't overcompensate with your other hand and make it start hurting too! (I know whereof I speak. Trust me.) Do whatever you can to adjust ALL of your daily movement activities--every little bit helps--and speaking from the point of view of an old geezer-chick, get used to living with pain. 'Cause the older you get, trust me, something hurting is going to be a way of life. You just sort of learn to ignore it after a while. Case in point--that would be me, still transcribing nearly 30 years after I thought I was going to have to quit.

And get that computer arrangement fixed up! :)
But YOU are the one doing all the name calling
She simply asked you to knock it off....as so many of us would like to echo.  Get over yourself and quit knocking everyone who posts on the board.  There are some of us who would like to be informed and knowledgeable about our sister MTs and our industry as a whole.  If you are not one of them, don't waste your time or our time by coming to this board at all, okay?  Your whining is annoying

Name calling
Name Calling or Substitutions of Names or Moral Labels:

This technique attempts to arouse prejudices in an audience by labeling the object of the propaganda campaign as something the target audience fears, hates, loathes, or finds undesirable.

Dangers inherent in name calling: In its extreme form, name calling may indicate that the propagandist has lost his sense of proportion or IS UNABLE TO CONDUCT A POSITIVE CAMPAIGN INTELLIGENTLY.

Before using this technique, the propagandist must weigh the benefits against the possible harmful results.
Have you tried calling?
I know when I had A problem they were able to answer my questions. Have you tried calling them? :)
If he keeps calling you, tell him

him for harassment.  I'm pretty sure he would not have handed the title over like that without his money.  If she owed him money, where is his proof? receipts showing balance due? Please do not hand over money to someone who may well be a heartless opportunist.


I'm very sorry for your loss.  Be well.


calling you?
they say that girls in the trailer park go round the outside, round the outside.  I wouldn't be bragging about servicing the neighborhood's husbands. 
No need for name-calling here.
The tone of this chain is not malicious nor judgemental.  Please don't come on here carelessly calling people names.  This woman had a life or death situation on her hands and handled it the best way she could.  She came here to help another human being in trouble by giving her valuable first-hand information.  In other threads, this malicious tone may be okay, but not here, okay?  Please just stay away if you can't bear the comments, okay?  These people are hurt enough already.  Thank you.
OK without the name calling....sorry
So do you think a nationalized health plan is a good thing for this country?
No name-calling, please. NM

Now, Laurie --- if what the others say is what they WANT to, same for you dear...
you're seeing what YOU want to. You're not the authority to say you see him for "what he is". You see him the same as others -- for what you WANT to see in him.

You're no more superior in knowledge than anyone else. It's your opinion versus theirs. LOL
oh puh-leeze, my dear

You don't know what I know, who I am, what I have experienced, and how I got to where I am today. So, don't tell me what I know or don't know.


Save your excuses for Oprah!!!


It's those causes that keep these people in the whole that they pass down from generation to generation. They need to do what Montel Williams said:  "Pick yourself up by your boot straps."


Let me leave it at that, before I say something I'll regret.


that much less they have to give us, my dear:)
You'd think they'd have wanted to save to postage on that amount though, especially the two center !!!
Calm down my dear
Now don't be getting yourself so worked up you smear that beautiful red lipstick off your lips.


Dear Franky
That thing is so little, 15 women can't look at it at the same time, let alone grasp it at the same time.
Frankly my dear...
We MQer's are soooo sick of the whining non-MQers who just don't "get it." Sorry if U have so little energy that navigating around our posts is so darn hard on U. Sheesh.
you, my dear, are amazing!
I thought i had browsed around sufficiently in the dqmanage area, and didn't happen upon this little useful discovery -- so thanks a bunch for sharing with us!!
