Didnt Seem Rude

You didnt seem rude to me at all. You adressed exactly what I was looking to get more info about. Should I even invest in the training, and if so what was the best way to go? Was MT even something I should get into? Sounds like more bang than I want to get tied up in so I appreciate your reply! Thanks!!

No, she didnt but so what if she did?
She was self supporting.  She didnt take anything from anyone or go on the system. 
i didnt see that.
what was the report?
How do you know that she didnt get ....
the newest edition out used??? I agree with it being worthless after a while but you can get used books that are the newest editions.
She didnt say they

Why didnt your ancestors stay?
Why didnt your ancestors stay wherever they came from?  What a horrible statement.  We are all descendant from another country, unless we are American Indian.  I know two doctors who live here and do help in their home countries.  One from South Africa, the other from Mexico.  One goes back each year to hold clinics where they operate on children. 
Nixon didnt declare war
Lyndon Johnson stepped up the fighting in Vietnam, we were there back in the 1960's.  Pressure was put on Nixon from the courageous and so right protestors to end our participation in a wrong war a war we were in because we didnt want the South Vietnamese to become communist, which happened anyway.  The protests at Kent State were peaceful except some students started throwing rocks at inexperienced guardsmen.  The guardsmen were called before the protest to keep calm on campus, which is something that should never be done and was never done before.  You do not turn military against student protestors.  You do not use military to guard Americans, that is what police are for.  Only during Martial Law can you have military take over American streets.  We have a right to protest.  When the students saw the guardsmen, some threw rocks.  The guardsmen then shot their guns.  Trust me, this is how it went.  It is burned into my psyche.
Thank you. I didnt know if there were a lot of parts to assemble.

Didn't have to do much of that (didnt really mind that
part of the job, though). Just didn't like working 11-7, hated the fact that with being responsible for so many patients, I felt like I wasn't giving any of them very good care.

and started looking at other co... and then of course i get this offer... that i cant seem to weigh out ...and then my currnet co. made it all better. so i will prob just stay put, and gain some skills adn time to my resume'...you kno?

Ok, I didnt post this, another JWA did. just wanted clarification.

it just sounds like they didnt want to work with you anymore
I wouldnt let it get me down. I dont feel like you should go back to school. It takes time to do the more difficult doctors. Unless you did not go to school and do good. Only you know how well you learned and whether or not you feel comfortable with doing transcription.

I think this lady was aggravated and took it out on you. Dont give up.

Keep your chin up. This is a tough field.

didnt work so owed no money
it is bigger equipment and expensive. AND they never worked so I did not owe them any money. Some were so "anxious" to work that I spent a small fortune sending it overnight so they could "get started" because they really needed to work. I want to believe in the best of people, but it is getting harder and harder.
I didnt really read your post, but thought i would reply anyway
email me if you have enough nerve to speak to someone more in person than on the boards.  I would be more than happy to have a debate with you if you are mature enough to handle it, but would rather not do it here.

In case you didnt notice, oh holy one, my story related
Yes I have worked in customer service.  I did it with a smile, and when I was done, I would go scream in a room, not serve my forked tongue to someone who just wanted to buy a corn dog and some fries. 
I didnt "make out well" having to take the taxes out myself. So I prefer employee status.

I tried Slycount and it didnt count the text in headers and footers
I tried Slycount and it didn't count the text in headers and footers after the 1st page. Apparently its a problem with upgraded versions of MS word 2003 and there isn't a fix yet for this problem. If you don't use headers and footers than its a good program. I currently use Spellex AccuCount and its great :). I believe they have a free trial on there website. I Hope this helps :)
Wow..I'm so shocked. I didnt know this happened. I know the clients pay the MTSO owners so why ca
the MTs who do the work. Is this the same person. It sounds like she is a nice person but nice does not pay the bills. Anyone care to give initials of the company as I have been looking for a IC job and obviously with these people having a huge turnover due to nonpayment, I do not want to fall into that trap. How awful!!!

I didnt ask for ANYTHING. Merry Christmas and watch your back when u work for a national.

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.

Not so sure if it is rude...
A lot of these places just seem extremely disorganized, a real mess. I had 2 places "hire" me for part time work and never got employment papers, contracts or anything until I finally had to ask. Ultimately I did not take either job, cause I figure if they cannot get this together, what happens to the paychecks?
How rude!
You'll be one of those "old, half crippled" MTs one day, young whippersnapper.
yeh thats rude but if you know she's like that
Thats someone I would not want in my life because it would be a roller coaster.  Friendships are rare and you need to try really hard to preserve them and if you're doing that, then you deserve someone who will do the same back.  I know, hard to find.  I also sound a little "short" on the phone (i've been told this several times by dif people) and I explain to them nicely that I do get in this weird zone in that I want to get my work done and i'm still in that zone when the phone rings. 
not to be rude, but where are you at that you are able to
Is this someplace you can stay? Just curious.
You don't have to be rude.
If you don't want to help that's fine, but you don't have to be rude.  Working late and in a hurry.  No time to switch from board to board.  I rarely ask for help anyway but I am in need tonight.  I have spent too much time already looking for it myself.
YOU ARE SO RUDE!

Well, I think YOU are trying to be rude...
and I don't appreciate it. PEEP = People. Obviously U R not up on 21st century slang!
You are rude.

that was a rude way to put it
I understand what they mean, but that was rude.  I tried to train a lady in her 60s and after 40 solid hours of just trying to teach her to save files, I gave up.  In the process, when I asked her what was on her desktop, she hesitated and said "uhhhhh...my coffee."   You'd think everybody would have a basic fund of knowledge since we haven't used typewriters for at least 20 years now, but some just cannot grasp it.
Are you always this rude?

You can have degrees coming out of your ying yang, but it doesn't make you better than any other person.  You've failed miserably at learning the most important lesson of all along the way:  How to treat people. 


So get over yourself. Someday you're going to slip off your self-erected superior pedestal and break that special finger that you flash at everyone.


Why are you being rude?
I don't understand. Haven't I been through enough?
Not trying to be rude. It is just sad that this
person has this much experience and does not know these simple rules.  Obviously they have never bothered to stay updated, which in our business is mandatory.
No one has been rude to her.
Again, you really should stop trying to start flames.  It's very juvenile of you.  Don't you have something to do, like transcribe, or maybe you could start an early dinner, your favorite, burgers on the grill, chips, and root beer!!! Or maybe you could do something you've needed to do for a long time but keep putting off:  TAKE A CHILL PILL AND CHILL OUT before you pop a vessel!  GHEESH!
