    Is there a way to get a read receipt back from someone who has web mail?
    I seem to only be able to see if someone has actually opened up a mail I have sent with a read receipt attached if they have certain types of e-mail accounts.  Is there a universal way I can do this from my Outlook Express?  Thank you for any input here!

    At what age would most MTs like to cut back and just have a nice job and not worry about the money
    you make so much and have less stress. Lots of high stress jobs out there but there must be a point where you say I want it easier now. Hopefully those jobs still exist in MTing.

    Sounds like MIL is a creep. I'd just steer clear from her

    Speaking of rip-offs, anyone have any advise on how to get back money paid for a product you never
    received?  I needed a Dictaphone C-phone for my job (was using a loaner) and put a note on the equipment board pertaining to this back in May.  A woman contacted me stating she had one for $100 (I only needed the phone, power supply and phone cord).  She said she was going away for 3 weeks and to Western Union the money to her that night and she'd send it out the next day.  I did not like the high pressure and was still shopping around anyway so I told her I'd wait the 3 weeks and contact her then.  About a week later she emailed me stating she cut her trip short but was going away again that Friday (It was Tuesday), I had by this time decided to buy her phone.  I mailed out that day via Priority mail a M.O. for $100.  She was very anxious for the money, and thought I'd sent it Express Mail, which I of course informed her I did not.  She stated that it should be there by Friday and if she did not see her mail that day that she'd have her mom check the mail and then mail the C-phone to me.  After 2 weeks I emailed her as I had no phone as yet, no response.  A week later still no phone, emailed again, no response. Then I called her (looked it up) and she claimed her email was "broken" and she had not received my emails but would email me back as she was on her way out the door to a baseball game.  I asked her how can she email me back if it was broken??? So then she backpedaled and said she'd call me.... I held my breath at that point.  So the next day by some miracle I get an email from her stating her mother had mailed it regular mail, no way to track it, etc.  So supposedly it is lost.  I emailed her back which it appeared she did not get as she did not respond to my questions but she did email me again saying she'd return my money.....again I am holding my breath.  That was 8 days ago.  She is in OK, I am in VA.  If she sent me a refund promptly it would have been here by now.  Now when I call her, she does not pick up, and no answering machine either.  I am planning now to mail her a copy of her email and my response to getting my money back.  I am assuming at this point that I was taken for a sucker and was obviously too trusting.  Right now I don't have $100 to burn (who does?) with my drives to the hospital (60 miles round trip) for my daughter's chemo, doctor visits, etc, on top of only making about 1/2 what I used to make due to the changes in my life right now.  In the meantime I got kicked off the account for which I needed the C-phone for (add insult to injury here) due to problems at the company I was working for, so that does not sweeten my disposition any.  So does anyone have any idea how I can squeeze her and get my money back?  Contact the police there for fraud? Small claims court in OK?  I am a persistent pain in the butt and will keep at her until I get my money back, if it is fraud then she picked the wrong person to screw with, if it is on the up and up then it is unfortunate but she should have insured it to cover her own (and mine) butt, and sent in with a delivery confirmation too....but you know what they say about hindsight.  Any ideas???
    Like an Amway kind of thing? I'd steer clear of it. nm

    Go to your local police station and file a report with them. After you do that, call the Frederick Police Department and file a report with them. If she has scammed you, don't wait for your equipment. She DOES NOT have any equipment. The Police Departments phone number is 580-335-7503 or 580-335-7504. Fax number is 580-335-2301. Sgt. Joe Rodriguez is on Military Leave in Iraq, but any officer will be able to help you.  Hope this helps.....
    Kristen Pineda
    My name is Sgt Trim I work for the Frederick Police Department. Just to let you know that we are still getting reports related to Kristen Pineda. We have worked numerous cases on her and will continue to do so. If you feel that you have been taken by her please contact our Dept. Most of the victims who have filed reports have gotten their money back. Frederick is in fact a small town but we are not hicks. We have made it possible for many of her victims to get their money back. You can contact me at 580-335-7503.

    To Everyone Scammed by Kristen Pineda - sm
    You need to contact Detective Joe Rodriguez at the Frederick Police Department, 580-335-2301. He is VERY familiar with her and he is very anxious to hear from everybody who has been scammed by her. She just got out of jail not too long ago for this same thing - WE NEED TO STOP HER!!! This is a real hick town (kind of reminded me of the Andy Griffith Show) and everybody knows everybody's business and EVERYBODY at the police department knows Ms. Pineda. PLEASE CALL THEM NOW!
    Kristen Pineda scams

    Kristen has been operating on a Rick Pineda ebay account. Someone has to stop her, she has bilked myself and anther gentleman out of money also. The local police know her well. She must think she is to smart for anyone to figure out how to stop her. The Oklahoma Attorney General may have to jump in and get involved and lets get her in jail where she belongs.


    Lets start here:


    Oklahoma
    US v. Lansford
    On January 19, 2000, Christine Lansford was indicted in the United States District Court, Western District of Oklahoma, on 14 counts of mail fraud for allegedly offering Beanie Babies on Internet auction web sites, accepting payment and failing to deliver the goods. Lansford allegedly used numerous aliases to perpetrate her scheme.
    This case was investigated by the United States Postal Inspection Service, Fort Worth Division, and prosecuted by the United States Attorney's Office for the Western District of Oklahoma.

    Joe Heaton, Assistant United States Attorney, Western District of Oklahoma, 405/553-8772


    C phone SCAM - Kristen Pineda strikes again!
    Contact me - I'll tell you what you need to do. SHE DOES THIS ALL THE TIME!!!!!

    Enough about Kristen Pineda and all her aliases. We remove posts as we see them, but
    this person uses aliases, different email addresses, and IP addresses.  WE DO WATCH.  If you were taken by this person, deal with the authorities.
    Laura, the person who scammed the OP is not Kristen Pineda. This is a
    completely different person altogether. We are dealing with the situation from this end. Thank you.
    Money, money, money, mmonnneyyy. Singing the Apprentice song.

    Well, that's a step in the right direction!!!
    Level the playing field a bit!

    Thx for sharing!

    steering your son in the right direction
    See, just the fact that the person interviewing him noticed and actually commented on his outfit says a lot. He has already made a good impression even before his first day. And, yes, orientation means that he definitely got the job! I remember I used to work at Kmart when I was 17 and I loved it. Not only can he just be satisfied with doing a good job, but they can give him better positions if he keeps making such a good impression. Standing out is what it takes and he has alraedy presented himself in a professional way. He will work hard there--take my word for it-- but he will also have a lot of fun. It has been almost 20 years since I worked there and I still see people that worked there then when I go in there. It is a good first job.
    Well, at least you are headed in the right direction! sm

    I have no clue what to even get started with. I had thought about accounting, but I'm really not all that great with numbers.  And to tell you the truth, it would be nice to have some sort of job where I can physically move around.  I think the sitting is really getting to me!  I swear I'm developing ADHD in my "old age".... ha!  Old at 39!  But regardless, I know I need to have some variety and movement in my job. 


    I have considered becoming a P.A.  Would need to take some upgrading on my physics and again, math is a weak point and I would have to work extra hard on that point. 


    Otherwise, I'm clueless for ideas.  I have horses and really love working with them, but it's pretty hard to make a decent living with horses.  I also enjoy horticulture, but I live on the prairies and horticulture is rarely do-able when it's blistering cold outside unless you've spent millions on indoor facilities!


    Ideas?  Thoughts?   Help! 


    wrong direction
    If it takes you 3 hours to transcribe an hour of dictation & you want to make 30 an hour, you would charge $90 per hour of dictation.

    Another way to look at it (but you have to be more familiar with your dictators to do it this way) is to figure a minute of dictation is roughly equal to 12 lines (this is where the familiarity comes in -- I've had dictators as slow as 8 lines a minute & as fast as 15). That's 720 lines per hour of audio dictation. If you figure 10 cpl, that's $72 per hour of audio.

    At $10 per audio hour you'd be making less than 2 cents a line.
    Request that they place a stop payment on the check, reissue, and mail priority or overnight mail
    If they refuse or invent unbelievable excuses, you'll know you have a problem. If MY check was a week late, there are many months I would be in deep trouble.
    I realize checks occasionally do get lost in the mail. If they are 100% sure it was mailed, then they shouldn't mind issuing another.

    Be firm and be persistent.
    My friend who works for them is having her mail go to her own account. She hates this new mail prog

    In every company I have worked for that pays via mail, they mail the checks on payday. sm
    Depending on the distance you can get them anywhere from 3-8 days later. Right now one takes 3 days, the other 3-5.
    That's a good step in the right direction...
    I have all girls, so for some reason they are not the least bit interested in video games, but they used to have their own TVs in their rooms and since we just moved this summer, I never hooked them back up.  They don't watch half as much TV, maybe only 30 to 60 min a day now, if that.  We all make mistakes.  But I do think these video games are bad for little kids.  Educational stuff maybe, but not the crud that's out there now.  Good job.
    Can anyone point me in the general direction

    of making templates? I have no idea what I am doing or where to start. I have looked in the archives, but keep finding posts related to jobs that pay for templates, etc. Thanks in advance


    Also, is it possible to really use templates when doing a very large acute care hospital?


    In school now. Unsure which direction to go but
    degree in Health Information Administration with a master's in Health Care Administration. 
    Not really. This is the direction of computers -see inside
    When I had a Windows 95 computer WITHOUT any "security patches" or "updates" from the Microsoft Web site, I had a stand-alone box. That is, I never got any Spam, no popups, nothing.

    I had this from 1998 to 2003. Then, in 2003 I decided to do the "security patches" etc. for Windows 95 that are availble on the Microsoft Web site. Then, I had popups up the wazoo, had to get spy ware, and it ruined my computer.

    This is a topic on all the computer sites. IF you buy a NEW computer from let's say Compaq or H-P, those I know, it will come PRE-LOADED with a tremendous amount of stuff which is just basically advertising, basically just a way for the "advertisers" to access your machine. PRobably this is all the computer manufacturers.

    THe short story on this is I think Microsoft thinks that's the way to go. THey built a software we have to buy and operate with, but it is really for the benefit of the people who want to sell us something. I miss my "black box" of Windows 95 without any upgrades. It was so much nicer. Just mine. But I too see SPAM with my name on it, not a common name. And they are obviously getting it off my computer name.

    One more thing to thank Bill for.
    They cant take direction, make same mistakes over.

    I now have trouble which direction sounds are coming from.

    I agree with this, but I trade off in the opposite direction. SM
    Mine are more clear in my distance vision, and I put on reading glasses from time to time when I need them.  I only have to do this when the print is very small or when my eyes ore tired.  Otherwise, I also like my bifocal contacts.  My are made by AccuVue.

    Dont you think though as thing move in that direction which they already are in EMRs that little by
    little jobs will be lost and hospitals will take over more of their transcription work with VR and EMR. I would think that it will be that way.
    My mail carrier just informed me that the mail is sorted by
    prisoners as part of their work.  Now do you feel safer and more secure?  
    Block her E-mail, return mail unopened

    On AOL I can determine who I want to receive mail from and block those I do not  -- and if they are blocked  they get their E-mail back as being "undeliverable".  If she sends things out -- send back --unaccepted.  But to be simple just E-mail her back or call the recuriter if you don't want to deal with her directly and state -- leave me alone.  If she is in another state you should not be scared of her but you may simply have to put it out there in no uncertain terms.


    Make money? I'm not making any money because of my decision. You read my reasoning
    You can agree with me or not, but don't make false assumptions please.
    You're working to make money, not to spend money.
    These people should be ashamed of themselves taking advantage of people this way!
    I also blew some money signing up with Quixtar... The only way to make any money is to bug everyone

    you know into signing up.  I felt like a snake oil huckster.  I hated it.  I was flushing money down the toilet from the moment I handed over my money. 


    RUN, do not walk away!  I do an entirely different side business now that I really love (in addition to my MTing, which I also love!)  Find something you're good at and that you truly love doing.  Then make a business out of it.  That's the best way to have a side business.  Selling discount toilet paper through Amway/Quixtar?  Not so much. 


    The CMT exam is overrated. Don't waste your time & money. Use that money on
    paid anymore just because you have it.  There are a few CMT cheerleaders that post to people like you but they are pretty well sucked up into that association.
    Yeah, money, that's it. I paid $20.00 for my dog. Money is NOT THE ISSUE
    walk him daily, play ball daily, he sleeps in my office daily while I work. Yeah, I got a lot of money, NOT HARDLY. And, my dog is HORRIBLY HORRIBLY ABUSED because he wears a collar around his neck. It's people like you that make me sick. I am done defending my use of the shock collar. I am going to continue with it and my dog will continue to be pampered , educated, fed, kept warm, and love me for everything that I do for him even when I remind him that his barking needs to stop. So, with that said, I will not respond to any more of your CRAP in reference to the shock collar.
    I'm getting e-mail and personal mail from MQ regarding changes
    and lawsuits.   What's up with MQ?  Any speculation?  My mail is general and not specific to my office.  Think things are coming to a head with the lawsuits and MQ is trying to play nice?
