Awww, thanks! Yes, it's the judgmental, you have some serious issues lady, kind of people

In Reply to: Oh please! - Anne wanna be!

that has kept my ENTIRE family from the church. We had neighbors who would just look down while walking to their car on their way to church. My mom would always frantically wave and they would just look terrified! She is so harmless. She really is. I don't deny the other posters above that there is something wrong with her, but she's always lived life to the fullest.

If you pray, remember Ann. She had major surgery today for tumors in her lymph nodes. This may be cancer coming back. Biopsies will return in a week. We are all so anxious. I wish I could be there for her. It breaks my heart. She lives over 2,000 miles away. I am her middle daughter. She has no one up there but my dad who just called and said she was in recovery with drains sticking out of her body. I just sent 2 bouquets of flowers via the internet which I know she will love (one from me and one from sis).....Thanks for your kind words towards my mom who really does love everyone!! She just has a "funny" way of showing it.

    Hear people talk about VR issues

    There is no way, none that a person's record could be any more compromised than with the dictators we have to put up with now days. They are unable to speak English to where you can make sense out of it. I get livid anytime I have to put up with this crap every weekend. We even have some PAs now who are non-English speaking. Where does this stop?

    It's kind of bland, most people don't like the texture....
    I usually marinate it in soy sauce and spices, then coat it in wheat germ or sesame seeds. Fry in extra virgin olive oil for about a half minute on each side then add to stir fry veggies. It will do WONDERS for your whole body. I brought my cholesterol down nearly 50 points in 6 weeks by changing my diet and my skin looks at least 10 years younger. It's amazing what transformations have happened.
    There are actually people who don't believe you have to give any kind of notice. sm
    But if you want the contract renewed or you want continued employment, common decency is called for.
    I'm sure your state has some kind of plan for people sm
    who owe, probably at a high interest rate, though. Suggest checking there first.
    I really admire people that can make that kind of money
    but knowing the hours she must work, and the days she must put in (probably all week plus the weekend), that's just not for me. Money isn't everything and I'd rather make my $40,000 and have my weekends free and work my 8 hours, five days a week and be done. Again, this is just me. Now if I could make that money working normal hours, I'd be happy. (I can dream can't I?)
    Yes we are out of work but did you ever stop to think what kind of people they are hiring to flood
    the accounts. I happen to know they AINT good and the blanks keep rolling in and are passed on to the hospitals because Amherst QA does not fill them in for whatever reason. Probably too stupid to understand the hard STUFF. I do QA and I know this is true.
    "mean lady, ice lady, flaming monsters"
    watch others feel hurt? from my computer? locked away? huh? you have clearly let your imagination run away with any powers of logic you may have had. sad.

    the poor baby. I love animals, especially dogs. It is just tearing me up to see all the displaced ones right now. I hope they all find their owners, because I would hate to be separated from my two beagles and our fat cat. I live in Mobile, Alabama and really wanted to evacuate for this storm, but I just could not leave my animals, so I stayed. Thank goodness, though, we were only without power for three days!

    Also, you'd be suprised at how much income you can lose from missing three days of work from two jobs! I don't think I'll ever pull out of the hole!
    awww thank you! sm
    It is "tomorrow" now and I'm starting my "real" shift.

    Everything is quiet... but I bet the crappy dictators are still there!!

    Yep, full moon, but worse is that Mercury is going retrograde... for a while too...

    Okay, back to work and thanks for "being there" LOL.

    BTW... how DO you bake without flour everywhere? I can't do it even WITHOUT the little hands!!
    awww thank you
    You're a sweetheart ! And good luck with your situation as well.
    awww!! How sweet! (sm)
    I only wish I would write half as eloquent a post praising good QA personnel.

    I work on a platform now where I can easily and quickly go back and listen to my blanks after completing the report just to see if they are any more clear. It's incredible what I can actually fill in on some of the more difficult dictators when I'm at the end and the voice characteristics are more familiar. However, before this platform, who knows what kind of blanks I left!!

    I'm sure QA likes me more now LOL.

    You are very kind to take the time to post this. We all appreciate it!

    If it makes you feel any better, I'm starting a long night/morning shift in ESL-land! ;-)

    Thank you again!
    Awww..thanks. That's sweet.
    I already got hugs a plenty from my hubby. I don't go that way, but thanks for the sentiment. :::smooches:::
    Awww I loved her...
    she was a great actress and she made me laugh.  RIP Shelly.
    Awww, that takes the fun out of it! sm
    I look like a little kid when I eat corn. I just love it. I wind up making a meal out of it. I have butter, salt and pepper on my face and don't bother to wipe it until I am done. Terrible, aren't I? But, it is so yummy.
    How can you be so judgmental?
    She may very well be used to getting her own way, I know a lot of people who are, but "loving the spotlight"?? I think she would rather be home and at work instead of in the spotlight under these conditions.
    Judgmental
    So judgmental..Heaven help you all.  You dont know why these people need help and you have not walked in their shoes.  For pete sake..you are truly just out for yourself and do not care about others.  When a natural disaster strikes, if someone needs help, I do not pass judgment, I help.  What goes around comes around..One day you will be needing help and just maybe no one will be there for you.  Disgusting.  Self centered noncaring people are the worst.  How can you sleep at night?
    Judgmental?
    What is wrong with **foul** language (your foul language is anothers every day language, close your ears), long hair..I love men with long hair..smoking pot??  I know people in their 60's who still smoke pot and yes..they hold down important respectable jobs and no..it did not eat their brains out or destroy their memory..This country legalizes alcohol which causes aggression, anger and sometimes murder..but yet does not legalize marijuana which does not cause aggression, anger and actually helps terminally ill patients with their pain..Me thinks you have sold out to the **establishment** conservatives or always was one or you have aged beyond your years..Lighten up..Life is for living and for being happy..Not judgmental..
    Maybe I am so judgmental because I don't need it ........................yet!
    And hopefully never if I got my mother's genes who got her first gray hair when she was 75.
    Anyone you can't spell JOB shouldn't AWWW anybody else..nm

    you are a very judgmental person.
    I feel sorry for you.
    Don't be so judgmental. It's art and very personal for some.

    you lost though.  you resorted to name calling when you could not make your argument.  sweet.  i love it when i see people like you who believe you know something and when logic proves they don't resort to name calling.  it says lots about you and your character.

    that is, if there isn't a good rerun of "I Love Lucy" on at the present time!

    LOL
    Ya know what, you're allowed a bad day or two. We all are. Ignore all the judgmental SM

    "super" women here who act like they've got it all together, never resent anything or anyone, they all make 50,000 or more a year, have the greatest job in the world, perfect husbands, perfect kids, and perfect lives.  They're only fooling themselves.


    I feel for you!  And I understand that you don't resent the child you've been "given" but that you love her and you just have days when you feel weighed down and angry.  You do without and give all of yourself to your child and then you get angry when you type reports on self-serving, vain women having their faces lifted or their eyes done as if that is the most important thing in life - looking younger.


    I know you love your child.  You don't resent her at all.  You do all you can for her.  You're just having a bad day.  Like I said before, you're allowed a bad day every now again.


    Your response sounded angry, defensive and judgmental
    you gave for "walking away from the rat race." I don't buy it. I've had tough times in my life too, probably as tough as yours. It's your choice. You can either work harder and refuse to accept crap for yourself or you can get angry and bitter, which is what you've apparently done. If you're talking about turning in soda bottles for deposits, people are naturally going to deduct from that that you are or have been poor. You said it, I didn't. So if you choose to "give up," that's up to you. I chose to make something of myself nomatter what or how long it took. Read Plato's "The Republic." It's the difference between Gold, Silver and Bronze.
    if you live among trashy people, low income people, people w/o goals or direction,
    content to just get by, you by default become a part of a group. "people" have decided to group trailer people as trash. that is because there are enough people in that group to earn the title and even if you aren't trash, you are categorized by others. did i think i was trash in lower class neighborhood surrounded by people who drank and fought all weekend? no but i knew i wasn't staying and did not try to pretend that all the fools in the neighborhood were just nice folks who ended up where they were because high horse snobs deemed their neighborhood low class. people for the most part live exactly where they belong because they don't want to educate themselves, they don't mind "trash" around them and they don't want to be bothered trying just a bit hard to extract themselves from that world. they justify everything to themselves i guess saying everyone who doesn't like their lifestyle is a snob and the comedians (Jeff Foxworthy/Chris Rock, etc) who make fun of them are just ill-informed.

    As for me, I fought hard to get out and don't even want to look back. It amazes me people stay for generations.
    Criminals? You calling veterans criminals? How judgmental of you. LOL. nm

    And you think I have the issues!
    You have a pretty vivid imagination. The only way you could think up all of that is if you went through it. I am sorry all of that happened to YOU! I really, truly am!
    See? There you go with your issues.
    If you weren't calling names or belittling people, why are you arguing with me?  No, I don't have to put up with verbal abuse from you or anyone.  I have no problems with differing opinions, so say whatever you want.  For someone who never did any of those things, you're sure coming back to this post to continue arguing about it.
    She had issues
    Yeah, I belive that's what it was. By no means do I feel repsonsible for what was going on with her. She had marital problems, 2 children at home that she couldn't bear to be without and was just confused about what she wanted to do with her marriage, not to mention the stress of working b/c she was used to the MT world.  But nevertheless, I'm kind of glad she's gone b/c she always came in with some sort of sob story.
    I had issues with that one.
    I have yet to be able to get my foot pedal to work with escribe. I finally downloaded transcription-buddy and it worked for me.
    I have issues with this also .....sm
    Some times I am so focused, no interruptions, stick to my schedule.....other times it is interruption after another, inability to focus, house to take care of....

    It is pretty much Life and I just roll with it...


    MS having issues
    http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5jeUZjaoJFQeFLR1T-E76M3IsHm8gD8V294AO0
    Yes, I have the same issues
    I have the same issues at my company, and the bad thing is, once they make their changes, whether they be right or wrong...our initials are still on that report.  I had an issue with a QA person saying I had the wrong word...well the first time I let it go because I thought, maybe I heard it wrong...the next time I got a report from that doc, he clearly said the word that I had typed previously, so I emailed the QA person and told her NOT to change my word..this is what he is saying, and besides, I confirmed it through Google and other transcriptionists that I trust...she said, that is not the write use of that word, and I told her, that's not my problem, call the doctor and tell him it's not the right use of the word...I'm typing what HE says, he's the doctor....who are we to change what he wants...but I was really frustrated, and she told me she would look into it and let me know...I asked her all day about it, but she never did tell me what she ended up doing, probably changed it....It really makes me mad!  So, I'm right there with ya, and like you said there are some fair QA people out there, but the company I work for have a few that just drive me crazy!
    SS issues
    Please contact the Director of HR by email and the HR team will see to it that this issues are handled. Sorry for any inconvenience. We will looking at where the previous emails have gone and how (or if) they were handled properly.
    no pay issues
    do you think maybe you need to go to the source before believing all the negativity? the people posting these ads are likely disgruntled people fired for poor performance. i have worked for this company for quite some time and have not had my car repo'd! i wouldn't stay around if i wasn't happy.
    Pay issues.

    I don't understand.  I hear people complaining about their wages.  Yes, I know we aren't exactly paid that great of an amount, but seriously.  I see people complianing about making $20/hr or more.  I am lucky if I make $11.50 an hour right now (including shift differential and 5 years experience), but I don't care.  I have the luxury of being at home so that I can work while my son is sleeping (thus not paying $500/mo for day care).  I don't have to pay for gas to get to and from work.  I don't know about most of your situations, but I would be forking out at least $100/mo with gas prices at $2/gal in order to get to and from an outside of the home position.  And, I even qualify for benefits.  Add all that up, and it is more than worth it.  Why can't we just be happy that we have a job and can make money?  I am the sole supporter of my family right now, and $11.50/hr, I still can make it.  Yeah, I don't even have an extra $5 at the end of the month, but I can make all my payments, provide a roof over my family, and provide food and clothing.  I have a nice house (only 4 years old and +2300 sq ft), with a nice chunk of land, so it isn't like I am living poorly.  I don't understand how those of you making $20+/hr can sit here and complain that you aren't making enough and can't pay your bills.  I think instead of complaining about your wages, you should reevaluate how you are living.  I know different parts of the country are more expensive to live in, but I could easily make it on my income alone in most of the country.  Every position is suffering right now.  Our business is not the only business where people are taking pay cuts.  Why can't you just be happy with what you have? 


    you certainly have other issues with sm
    "abuse" besides your husband! T his is not abuse, this is the "norm" for medical transcription. The company you worked with last, probably didn't have enough work to give you a second account. Most MTs would love to be in thep osition of having more than one account. some barely get anything.
    oil of old lady!
    That's what my husband calls Oil of Olay, but what does he know. I'll be 50 this year (and proud of it) and everyone says I look great for my age.
    QA Lady
    So obviously you were never a newbie? You came out of MT school the "perfect" MT. I have nearly 3 years experience and there are still things I look up. One thing about MT work is that is it forever changing. Not to mention the QA that faults me for things that are considered correct according to the Book Of Style. Just because an MT is new does not imply that she cannot do the job.
    Hey QA lady. You were all over the
    GAB board yesterday and now you are on the MAIN board telling us once again how wonderful you are and how superior you are to the rest of us. GET OVER YOURSELF. You keep telling us how awful MTs are, so QUIT and you won't have to deal with it anymore. I would hate to have you as my QA person. I think we all have heard enough about how PERFECT YOU ARE and how worthless MTs are.
    You saying that, I only wish the lady
    had been here at that particular time. I was transcribing a physician who changes almost every other word, sentence, saying oh don’t put that in, change to thus and so and then says a sentence and then says delete that. I could pull my hair out when I even see his name coming in. I remember the first time I ever listened to a physician and like the person you mentioned above, knew he was speaking English and I barely knew the first word he was saying. I guess most think we sit at home just "typing" a bit and then eating chocolate chip cookies the rest of the time.
    one word- ISSUES!!
