Checkout lady at Publix told me Happy MD, and I was like, what makes you think I'm a mother? sm

In Reply to: Message for those who aren't mothers...sm - Me

It doesn't bother me, I just found it peculiar to just say it willy-nilly to me just because I'm female and appear to be of child-bearing age. Yet another reason it's a stupid "holiday" that exists only for the retail outlets.

Both of my children told me Happy Mother's
Day and one of them gave me a card. My son, soon to be 25, still lives at home and my daughter, soon to be 24, is married and lives a couple of hours away. Just knowing they love me is enough. Every day is Happy Mother's Day to me because of them.
His mother told him that
his own sent was unique and that he smelled like a man. If he smelled only like himself, he would be unique...because he is the only him. I'm paraphrasing...but that was basically what he said she taught him. I drooled too! I have also heard that about deodorant. Oprah said he smelled wonderful!
Happy Mother's Day
Happy Mother's Day NCMT.  What a wonderful thing for your parents to do for you.  Have a great day!  God is good......:)
Thank you, and Happy Mother's Day to you!!!!
:-)
Happy Mother's Day to all !!!! n/m

Thank you! Happy Mother's Day to you as well.

I was told this year by the lady who our taxes...
that if it the dictations are 2% of your income for the year then it will count...she told me to keep a list of everything just in case but I don't think my deductions would add up to anything since I am an employee...
Good for you!. That lady must be happy at Wal-Mart (sm)
Hmmmm...I have thought the same thing, transcription hasn't been that great lately.  What a relief it would be to just put the computer in the closet.
Happy Mother's Day from all the staff at MTStars!


You're right. I have a wonderful family...Happy Mother's Day to you too!

Here's what makes me happy!
My dogs, soaking up the sunshine, good friends, good food, LIFE in general!
What makes everyone happy?

I run a small MTSO.  I would like to know what everyone thinks is important to them when working for an MTSO.  What kind of things, in your mind, would make my company an excelent company to work with?  I am trying to make sure we are a good company to transcribe for so I thought I would put this post out and ask what you thought was important.


Thanks for the input.


What makes everyone happy
I appreciate being paid on time. I also appreciate my own accounts within the company so that I can count on lines. I feel more comfortable doing a few doctors very well as compared to larger quanties such as in a pool-type situation. I would love a job where I could just type in Word and use my own software. These virtual systems do not like Expanders for the most part and for me at times the Expander may give a clue to a word I may happen to be stuck on.
Besides kids/sig other, what makes you happy the most?

Having music on makes me happy :)
If I am having the worst of days turning on my favorite music changes my entire day.
My vet and his staff told me nothing makes their day more than goodies!
It may be old hat, but they said getting a basket of cookies or pastries really makes them feel appreciated. I know you wanted original ideas, but this is what my large vet practice has told me in the past. Good luck. :-)
you sound as if this MQ lawsuit makes you happy (sm)
in some sick and twisted way! Why would this make you happy.  Not that anything significant will come of it, I mean come on, do you really think MQ is going down the tubes? Don't get your hopes up, honey! You know, your posting name is very fitting...mushroom=fungus!
So What if lawsuit makes poster happy. So WHAT?
Why are you UNHAPPY about lawsuit.

BTW, when you come down to tearing apart and anonysmous posters screen name you have lost any sort of credibility or argument you know.
Well, you have to define what makes you happy. I personally don't want to be chained to a chair a
so that is the reason I won't take the hospital MT job locally they phoned me about with all the perks and bennies, ability to work from home, etc. They wanted in writing that I would either work 8-5, 7-3, etc. I just can't and won't do that right now, so thus I pay the price of not making as much because of the flexibility my job with MQ has to offer me!
Someone told me that basically it mean without spaces so I guess that makes sense if your only count

We have Publix - MAJOR stores all over....sm

Publix says tipping is not allowed.  I do not agree with that.  They are loading TONS of stuff into cars, why shouldn't they get a tip?  I tip, their bosses are not outside watching anyway and I don't know that anyone ever lost a job with Publix (one of the largest employers in the SE) due to this


to each his/her own I suppose    


yup and using self-checkout
x
Ever wonder about the self-checkout??
Eventually there will be only a few checkers. Although the propensity for theft is greater, a lot of places are replacing people with self-checkout. Our local supermarkets are providing scanners you can use as you shop, check yourself out and never see a human except on rare person at the door who might ask to see your slip for huge items. Let's face it, automation is in, people are out. Better to stick to hands-on, how about CNA training or coding (money is prioity) although coding too is being shipped overseas. I am thinking more on the side of service people not possibly replaced by a robot. Think really hard about what you could do to make yourself not replaced by a robot! Good luck in your decision, don't waste your time on what won't last.
Publix stores are starting to look like Super Wal-Marts! Have you seen that?

"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.
I don't mind self checkout or bagging my groceries. It does keep costs down.
I just want to buy my stuff at the cheapest price available. I don't want to way ethics and morals of any store because if I need to do that I probably wouldn't buy anything from anybody.
Naaaaaaasty lady. Bad lady. Pooh.

I told you once, I told you twice, eTransPlus is going down the drain!
Don't expect communication from anyone, we are only little "peons."
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.
just an observation, but I don't believe that lady had PPD
I believe she was psychotic. It's hard to second guess a diagnosis, but as I remember she had been ill for some time; her problem was not really post-partum depression. Does anyone else remember the details of this?
I just imagine myself as a bag lady nm.

Wow! Your one busy lady! My hat goes off to you!nm

27-year-old lady:)

No shopping but me, but did you see the lady with the wig?
NM :)
I wonder if you have the same boss lady as me...
She is terrible.  She constantly acuses me of things I am not doing and then when I call her on it, I never hear any more about it.  Never an apology.  I have tried to speak with her on the phone but she won't and it's always by e-mail which is so frustrating.  I have been slammed so many times I can't even count any more.  I just never know from day to day whether I'll have a job or not because I never know what I will be accused of next.  Oh the things we put up with to make a living in this business
Ask the Fruitcake Lady. sm

Just for grins and giggles.  Still LMAO.

What a nice lady you appear to be..sm

In this world of nastiness, it is refreshing to see your giving post, your willingness to help a Mom out by taking care of her child because she is not able to currently.  More impressive is that you are the *mommy* but are very open-minded and have full intentions of returning said child when the Mom returns back to being Mom. 


KUDOS to you!!!  You will be blessed and are probably blessed today!!!  What a great holiday post even though it's not holiday related!!  Warmed the cockles of my heart!! 


(((hugs2u)))

Which First Lady do U admire most?
Eleanor Roosevelt for me.
Lady Baltimore!!!!

KYMT thanks for that tip. To the lady asking SM
about the macro, when recording your macro, you use the Control F9 to make a field, but when recording the macro you have to use your right arrow button to get out of the gray highlighted field and then continue with on creating your macro. When you are executing your macro, you would use the F11 button to move from field to field. This is essentially what KYMT posted, but her tip is so much easier!

Just wondering if there is a way to somehow "program" the autotext entry so that it takes you to the first field in the report after using the enter or F3 button?
Are you the same QAdragon lady I had
because before quitting the last job my dear QA had the nerve to get her fingers moving too fast on her instant messaging and sent me a message meaning it to go to another QA person and darn if she wasn’t talking about me! That was the last straw and I quit that very second. You 2 might be the same one?
