Don't shoot her down

As with any business idea, some work out and some don't. She may do very well. In fact, she may run across a local clinic/provider who is dissatified with the quality of the current work he or she is gettng and will want to give her a chance.

I wonder how many people told Bill Gates to forget it when he was working on computer stuff in his garage?

I believe everyone that says they make that much.  I can type over 2000 lines a day but find that it is hard to do that everyday for myself.  how many lines do you type daily and then how many hours do you work.  my pay tier is this 7 cpl to 3000 lines, 9 cpl to 6000 lines and then after 6000, 10 cpl. 
I usually do 1250+, I shoot for 250 lph

Shoot, my animals are all cute.

My dog will jump on her hind legs and "box" with you by smacking your hands with her front paws.


My cat likes to go berserk inside cardboard boxes.  He also perches on my desk and dips his paws in my betta bowl.  Then he climbs all the way up the screen door and yowls if I'm outside.  Typical cat behavior, I guess, but this is my first kitty so it's funny.  He's a loverboy, too.  He crawls up on me, sticks his head under my hair, chews my hair, bites my neck, purrs and goes to sleep.


RE: Drop shoot software

Can anyone explain what Drop shoot software is and where to get it? Thanks


I consider job searching in the MT field a crap shoot
You can never tell which would be better than another until you try it. Too many bait and switchers out there.
Hey Lynn, Shoot me an e-mail. I'd love to know
what Webmedx offered you!!! If you wouldn't mind sharing.
Shoot - just apply at different companies stating your background
& your desire to learn OPs or orthopedics. My only experience was in radiology (10 yrs) & ENT (4 yrs)when I applied at a company to work at home(many,many years ago). I was hired - with no experience other than the above. They started me on DS, then HP & Consults - then "asked" me to try OPs. From then on, after more time spent looking things up than transcribing,with many tears shed, they kept me on OPs solely.

I'm now with another company after 12 yrs,& OPs are my speciality & all that I do.

Just keep applying to any & all companies that meet your criteria with your wishes known. Hopefully, you'll find a company that will let you expand your expertise beyond radiology & give you the opportunity to try such.

I wish you the best. Don't give up. If I could find such a company - so can you. Just keep on trying !!!
Well, shoot. quit! A recession's a great time to SM
go back to school anyway, like Amanda. I've forgotten some of the exact quotes I've read, but various economists have predicted that, because of the ongoing technology revolutions, people these days should plan on having to retrain for new jobs approximately 5 times during their lives. And they weren't talking about a little brush-up now and then either, but throwing in the towel and moving on. So how about having some fun figuring out what you should have done if you could go back and do it all over again, and then going for some version of it?

Since your family won't miss your income, if needed, you could spend your very last months in this field piling up tuition money to move on to something better.
What a perfect analogy! Shoot, I switched offices in my own home and it took a good 2 wks

This will vary depending on dictator style and speed, but the average to shoot for initially shoud b
around 3 times the length of the dictation. So, if the dictation is 5 minutes long, you should be able to complete the transcription in roughly 15 minutes. Again, that can vary, but it's a good rule of thumb to go by.
