Jumping in here .....

But I just wanted to say that I know very well where both Rome and Douglasville are -- I'm in Cedartown !!


 


JUMPING
Change your macro or Expander to include a destructive backspace.

Also, if you do not use those fields to type on you can simply hit Alt + A then ctrl + shift + F9 and it will turn all the field codes to test instead of having to go delete them all.
No hoop jumping
I said nothing about specific companies, nothing about cpl.  It was mentioned having to sit for days with no work and to that I say, then why stay?  Keep one job while you look for another, but there is no reason to stay with a company that has no work.  And while we are at it, why do so many people say "Tell me a good company that pays well."  Do you want someone else to write your resume and do the work for you, too.  Check out ALL the MT boards, Google for jobs, send out resumes, make phone calls.  As has been said a million times on this board, a good job for one will not necessarily be a good job for another.  Just don't sit staring at an empty screen, waiting for the MT fairy to drop jobs in your lap.  Last I heard, her job was sent to India.
Jumping in topic....
A third of my work is radiology and the rest is basic four reports.  I prefer doing rad because of the fast pace.  It's a small hospital with a rotating doctor and I do anywhere from 50 to 150 (this is not counting combined reports) reports a day which only takes a couple of hours of my day.  Would really like to do more rad but afraid of the committment it would mean.  Any suggestions?
Have you taken MT courses yet? Or are you just jumping in on your own? nm

You are right. I guess I'm jumping the gun. It
just really upset me.  I'll be shocked if it's NOT true, but stranger things have happened.  Time will tell.
I'm jumping in a day late.
I just wanted to second that dogs don't do well with berber. My dog loosened one loop while chewing/playing with something (I can't remember whether it was a treat or toy). When he realized what he'd done, he then proceeded to pull it until I had a huge run in the carpet dead center in the room. We've never had behavior problems with him since we got him, but he didn't know any better and kept right on going. I vowed never to get berber again after that.
jumping around in word doc
Is there anyway that you can jump around in a word document?  Meaning say if i have a template set up with all these headings is there a way just to put a * or something after the heading and be able to hit shortcut keys to jump right to that spot so I could start typing.   THANKS FOR THE HELP!
Why is everyone jumping all over her post?
I don't believe she mentioned that she believes there is anything wrong with prayer.  I think she was surprised to hear this being dictated.  It is surprising!  I have never come across such a statement in my entire career.  It doesn't mean that prayer between patient and physician does not happen, it just is unusual that it is being dictated...that's all.
Jumping to fields

Hi everyone!  For years I have been jumping to fields in Word by using the F11 key.  Does anyone know if I can customize my keyboard to use alt/c to jump around and how to set that up?


Thanks!


Those jumping on you are jealous, that's all.
I think when some people got into transcription, they figured it would be easier than it is. It's a real job that you have to concentrate on at all times. I don't answer the phone, my husband knows not to bug me and when my kids were still at home they knew not to bother mom while she's working.

This is still a great career for me. I get as much work as I want and make as much money as I want.
Again - Someone jumping to conclusions
Is it that they can not comprehend what they read?  This post was an effort at encouragement to some, not all.  Again, someone takes a sentence out of context, turns it into something else, just so they can be this rude.  No some may not want out of this business.  It is all they have left.  What she was encouraging was that if you are still young enough, why not start searching for another passion if this one has been taken away from you?  I don't think the message was too hard to comprehend.  If you want to "vent" (if that is what some call it), please do not do it to people who do not deserve this.
There you go jumping to conclusions.
above.
I seems strange that clients would be jumping
ship when the TAT time is pretty much up to the minute. You would think transcriptionists would be jumping ship instead. I don't believe the clients are jumping ship.
I really don't have any problem jumping accounts

A bit time delaying at first to learn the specifics and keeping the client profile open for referrence.


The only thing I hate is when I'm literally changing accounts with every other report and realize (usually as I hit send) that I did things on that report that is the standard from the account previously ie: number med list versus not...using 1. vs 1) etc.


Woops. I am so sorry for jumping the gun like that. Didn't know. Sorry! :(

You are certainly jumping to conclusions. I assure you sm
I would not send anyone to AAMT for any reason. 
For 63 yrs old, I was surprised he's still jumping aound like that.

I think alot of people are jumping to --sm
conclusions here about the whole situation, including yourself. You do not know that just because she gave your husband's friend a ride home, that anything happened between them. Since she already had his friends cell number, perhaps he simply left something in her car and she wanted to return it. It could be totally innocent on everybodies parts. She may not even be aware he is married. But any way, that all is between your husband's friend and her. Since your husband told you about it in the first place, I think there is nothing to worry about in that respect. However, your over reaction to it will probably change things between you and him, and calm open communication is the only thing that may change that back. You already crossed the line with a jealous outburst, and perhaps will never be able to cross back. He will always see you in a different light now, and that you possibly do not trust him, and he will be very careful about what he tells you in the future. I have learned through experience that jealousy, anger, and mistrust are the quickest ways to drive your husband to find someone else. Secondly, if there IS an affair going on between the friend and this woman...it is none of your business. Don't confront the friend..don't confront the other woman...and definitely do not call the wife to tell her. If there is an affair going on, she will find out on her own, but if you stick your nose in, and they patch things up between them, you will have lost a friend for yourself, and your husband. Stay out of it. I definitely think you need to sit down with your husband and calmly talk about this. Tell him that you are sorry for over reacting and that you DO trust him. That is the most important. Never bring up the phone call again. Never ask for the number. He probably feels that you will interfere in something that is not your concern and that is why he does not want you to have it...not because something is going on. He thinks you will embarrass him. that is all. Don't start making waves when you are the one who would end up losing in the long run. Trust me...I know. I was jealous and suspicious of my ex husband and all of his female friends. I reacted to every situation with jealousy and anger, and tried to FORCE him to stay with me. If they want to go, you can't stop them from going. I ended up losing him because I drove him away with mistrust and jealousy. He is married to her now, and I hope they are very happy together. I am not angry and I am not bitter. I did it to myself and I take full responsibility for that. I just do not want to see it happen to anyone else, because it can be avoided simply by how you approach things. Take care and good luck to you.
Cannot remember macro for jumping

I need a macro for Word 2003 to jump to ?? as the next field and, even though I've done this before, I cannot for the LIFE of me remember how to do it.  


 


Any clues? THANKS in advance!


Microsoft Word margin jumping
Hello. I've had this happen before when opening MS Word and suddenly the curser jumps to the very top of the page and not at the usual 1" margin that I have set at. Does anyone know how to fix this? I don't remember how I did it last time. It just started doing this again. I've checked my margins and they are fine in page set up.Thanks.
That's hilarious, hiring bonus. Everyone jumping ship?

I'm afraid if you posted anything on here, people will just start jumping -
down your throat. People on this board, unfortunately, are notorious for that. Hopefully, you are working for a better company now and not dealing with the MQ problems and accounts.
If you have the knees for it, jumping rope slims fast.
Jumping rope is effective because it doesn't build a lot of muscle bulk in the thighs, which many women don't want. You get calf definition and it works your core muscles, arms, and especially your heart and lungs. The effect is very slimming.

But I also saw a study that said men slim fastest with aerobic exercise, and surprisingly, women slim down fastest if they do strength training in addition to aerobics. Weird, hey?
Full Word is in the Works "Suite," not plain Works.
Works saves files in a different format, but you can open them in Word if you have the correct filter installed.
They're great! Lots of sweating, jumping, dancing. Fun! I just ordered more. nm

Need to get up every 2 hours and take some sort of break. Food, dog walk, jumping jacks, laundry,

RIGHT!!! Someone who works 16 hours and someone who works 60 will have a HUGE difference. NM

Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.

this works at least for
fire ants, probably for most any I would think.  Just sprinked around some QUICK grits, (not the slow cooking kind).  What happens is the worker ants take the grits to the queen, she eats the grits and blows up; usually the ants move on....I had to do this several times over the years and have never been disappointed.  Good luck to you. 
Maybe she works because she needs to
not because she thinks the transcription world can't make it without her. That's what I do. I do occasionally take a day off (very occasionally, but I work lots of weekends and lots of holidays because, simply put, it pays the bills and puts food on the table.
They want you to know something is in the works.

Here's how ASR works

ASR is NOT more production than when we were just doing MT work before. I like ASR because it is a variation in muscles used, NOT because of productivity. I have gone DOWN 10% in overall production since the induction of DEP/ASR. They say I have gone up 50%. It is not short to explain but I will try to brief it- They are taking a 1 week period from this summer and comparing the production of your MT against your ME work for that week. This does NOT show what your production has increased since you are an ME. An account with ASR puts all the well spoken dictators on ASR and leaves the more inaudible speakers on transcription. If they were to take production from the yearly quarter before DEP/ASR started and compare it to the most current quarter completed - That would be more accurate. This is another set up for failure or a carefully concocted tactic for MQ to make us think our production is going up!


DD only works
if the company you work for offers it, though. What's even worse than a late mailman is the idiot at headquarters who didn't mail the check on time.
Works?
I have Word 2003 that came with MS Works.  I use the Word count with spaces and divide by 65.  Mine has a count with spaces and one without.  Is this not what you mean?
Don't do it. No one really works that way
anymore if they are legit. I would really doubt this. Lines is what most of us work by. You can do lots by bytes to hide things. Years ago they had an article in AAMT when I used to read it about just this very thing. I don't know if you can find someone with an issue of it or not. I have no idea when I saw it but it was an interesting article comparing how our work is measured. This one was the last one that they would recommend.
works better for me than others..
Cymbalta has a more subtle affect than others. I take it in combination with Welbutrin and have been on this combination for about six months... I was on Celexa before that, which was horrible. Weight gain and unobtainable orgasm with that one...I seem less overwhelmed on my current combination, also with Xanax for STAT relief.
My kid works at

My kid works at Burger King for a part-time job while in college.  Been there since he turned 15, so almost six years now.  If he could talk to you, he would tell you to work any place but there.  Yes, they start you off at $6.50 to $7.00 per hour and guarantee four raises the first year; however, after six years, he is now making $7.95 an hour (with excellent evaluations).  Get ready to work Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve, the Fourth of July, Labor Day, Memorial Day, etc.  Get ready to be dumped on by lazy managers who don't want to do their job and can make you do their job for them.  Get ready to have customers curse you because another employee screwed up your order.  Get ready to have cameras watching your every move.  Get ready to clean toilets after filthy customers who don't care if they trash the restroom stall.  Get ready to mop floors several times per shift.  Get ready to come home stinking to high heaven because of the grease, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, etc, that is all over your uniforms.  And, before I forget, get ready to do laundry on those greasy uniforms every day because you only qualify for one uniform the first thirty days.


Give up medical transcription?  Never -- even though the doctors never say, "Thank you for a job well done."  I'll take the deadlines, the stress, the competition and the back pain if for no other benefit than the fact that I still smell good after I finish my shift.    Don't forget the extra pounds you'll get at Burger King -- I do believe just inhaling that stuff puts on the pounds. 


It works for me

See, I don't have enough expenses/deductions to qualify to itemize on my income tax.  When you are an IC, your tax burden may be less because you can offset it with home office space, books, software, hardware, etc.  Maybe you own your own house and/or have children to claim on your taxes.  Maybe you are married and have a supplement income (all thes things are none of my business, just listing things   ) 


Anyway, my point is this:  If I need an appendectomy tomorrow and need 6 weeks off, since I don't have anyone to support me and I don't have any savings, then PTO, STD and LTD covers my income so I can recover without worrying about losing income or possessions.


It's all different strokes for different folks.  See, I also just started with this company a few months ago.  On my last job after 5 years, I was making more than $50,000 as I did MT and worked as a certified coder for a hospial also.  My income always goes up each year after I start new accounts 


here's how it works
You have to have high-speed internet to use Vonage, either cable modem or DSL through your phone line.  Vonage sends you a router box which connects to your internet and then you can hook up a phone line in the back of it so that your calls are being made essentially over the internet instead of the traditional method, so I plug my C-phone phone cord into the Vonage box and use it for calling to access dictation.  This is my home office, but out in other places in my house I have my regular phones connected to the jacks in the wall and just use the same number I've always had for regular calls.  I keep the 2 lines because I couldn't get a local phone number with Vonage.  However, in a lot of areas your phone number will transfer and you can eliminate your regular phone bill all together if you just want to use the Vonage phone service, but it's your choice.  Hope that made sense.
What works for me.....
I type approximately 1800 to 2000 lines a day. I heavily use my Autocorrect in Word and start off with a saved template which has all the general headings that my ortho doc uses. Then, I just basically fill in the blanks!
what works for me---
I ask them to once. then, I sit back and wait awhile, usually a couple of days. I don't nag, I don't complain, I don't bitch and moan- I've found it to be a waste of time & energy-- I jump right into stark raving crazy, to the point that they worry about my sanity and the safety of their body parts --works every time ;) (you'll probably need to use that technique only once tho')
What works for me
I will try to explain this stretch as best I can as I am not finding a picture of it. I was told that the reason I have this chronic pain is because I spend my days with my shoulders turned in a little (while typing). I was told the best way to fix this is to do the opposite sort of stretch which is stand in a doorway and put each hand on the sides of the frame about shoulder height, then lean forward and hold. I do this a few times a day and I swear it has been a miracle for me. I was also told to stand and raise both arms straight above my head and then gently lean backward - I can't do this very far yet but I am getting more flexible all the time. Hope this helps at least one person!
What works best for me is
to listen to the relaxing tapes of rain and the ocean and etc. I have tried sleeping pills for years and nothing has ever really worked, but this is the best for me.
What works for me is..
melatonin and 5-HTP.  I take one tablet of each at bedtime and sleep like a lamb.  I used to take a Benadryl tablet each night which also worked but then you have a slight "hangover".  Also, although it's not habit forming, I wasn't comfortable with the idea.  The melatonin and 5-HTP really help with sleep and lower anxiety, as well.  They can be purchased at health food stores, but I got mine on ebay for a very good price.  My husband and I both notice nothing but a positive effect.  Good luck!
You tell her. That's what I did, and it works. (sm)
You mothers of boys, heed this.  My DIL once told me she was amazed that my son could take care of himself, even knew how to run the washing machine.    True story. 
Here's how it works...

I've never heard such a thing. 


Once a person gets their real estate license, they are free to work for any Realtor they choose and for any Realtor who is willing to take them on.  The catch is like starting out in any field, they are a newbie,so they can expect to work their behinds off - try to sell houses 24/7 - and make a pittance of a commission split until they get experience (experience  = # of house sales) under their belt, at which time their commission split increases.


Here's an example of how it would work:


Newbie Sue goes to work for Coldwell Banker selling homes.  She lists a home for $300,000.00 at 6% commission, and an agent from ABC Realty finds the buyer and sells it.  Total commission is $18,000.00.   (Note:  This is why it's important that you concentrate on listing instead of running all over town with buyers.  When you get a listing and when/if it sells, you are guaranteed a commission - this is not the case when working with buyers as buyers are very fickle and not loyal to agents AT ALL!)  Anyway....


ABC Realty and their agent get half of the commission - 3% - or $9K - half of the total $18K total commission - and that 3% is split between ABC Realty and the agent, according to their agreement.


Let's say Newbie Sue and Coldwell Banker agree that because she is new with not much experience under her belt and because the Realtor will be basically baby sitting her in her dealings/closings/open houses for a few months until she gets the hang of everything involved, plus pay for all of her home advertising, etc., she will get a 30 percent cut, so Coldwell Banker's split is 9K, and 30 percent of that goes to Newbie Sue or $2,700.00, with Coldwell Banker getting the remainder.


If Newbie Sue lists AND sells the home (finds her own buyer) then she and her realtor get the whole cut of the pie -$18K, and then they split that according to their agreemtn splint - in this case 30% or $5,400.00 would go to  Newbie Sue,with the remainder going to her Realtor, Coldwell Banker.  This is called a double whammy - the listing agent gets the whole commission pie, but double whammys don't happen that often.  Anyway, that's why it's important to get as many sales as you can under your belt because your split with your Realtor will be higher; i.e 75% perhaps. 


If a real estate agent goes to work for an operatoin like Re-Max, they get the whole piece of the pie when the house sells; however, they have to pay "rent" to ReMax for their office space plus pick up the entire tab for all their newspaper/magazine advertising, which is FAR from cheap, so that's why when one goes to work for a Re-Max Agency, one had better know what they're doing or the cost of doing business will sink their ship real fast (unless they have a deep reserve.)


Hope this makes sense....


 


 


it works for me
For autocorrect I click Alt+T and then A. Its a very fast habit to pick up. And you can do Control+F9 to insert markers and then use Fll to jump to each marker. Works with my Word version.
What works for me
I don't need to look at account specs every single time, just a refresher about a couple of items usually.

I made a table on a Word document with the most important aspects for all accounts then listed information to refresh my memory for each account in a column. I left a few columns blank for any additional accounts I gain later.

Then, I printed it off, and took it to Kinko's and had it blown up to just below a poster size.

It is hanging right next to my desk and I just need to glance at it (not even turn my head) to see if this account uses patient names or if that account uses special headings, etc.

No books. No taking my hands off the keyboard. Just a "tickler" file on the wall!
