Golden Isles Transcription - sm

Question for anyone who has been with them long enough to form an opinion!  How is work availability and pay scale?  Do they offer vacation time?  If not, do they allow you to take a week off (unpaid) for vacation.  How flexible is scheduling? How are the QA people?  I have checked the archives and cannot find a whole lot.  Maybe a fairly new company? TIA!


Golden Isles Transcription? sm

Can anybody tell me anything good or bad about Golden Isles Transcription.  They have an opening for oncology account.  Thinking about jumping out of the Medquist boat.  Anybody? 


Naaaaaaasty lady. Bad lady. Pooh.

Another Ellen with Hearing Loss

Funny you should ask about this. I just got my first hearing aids two days ago!!  I have sensorineural hearing loss and have been finding it increasingly difficult to understand the TV, conversations, etc., but no problems with transcription. Actually, I had my hearing tested probably 6-7 years ago and was advised to get hearing aids then but I was too cheap. It's unbelievable how expensive they are and I think it's crap that insurance doesn't pay for even a portion of the chart.


Anyway, since I only started transcribing full-time five years ago, I know that transcribing didn't cause my original hearing loss. It's hereditary in my case with a long line of hearing-impaired relatives on my mother's side. Whether it's become worse is up for debate. BTW, I worked 30+ years as a medical technologist (lab), where there is always a lot of low-level noise but not really loud.


I can't decide about these hearing aids. Sometimes I totally forget they're there but other times I feel like I have wads of gum in my ears. I take them out and I'm not sure I'm hearing all that much better with them. Time will tell, I guess.

The beach, anywhere. Warm and sunny and lots of fun!
But, Niagara Falls is always beautiful no matter what time of year. It's actually cheaper to stay there in the winter than the summer.

You gotta pick anywhere where you can just focus on each other and let the world go on without your for a night, a couple days, a weekend, maybe a week (yeah right) whatever.
sunny, chilly w/about 15 in of snow on ground....

Local clinic sent all work to the Phillipines one sunny day. Left their MTs
It is not only India. I really cannot say there is an answer other than find politicians who feel as deeply about the "Employ America" slogan as the American worker and American business owner who is a patriot.

candy
how bout Bonomo turkish taffy, vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. De-lish.
Candy and gum
I'd have to say absolutely yes!!! Especially the candy clicking on the teeth. And just plain eating gets on my nerves. Guess they just don't realize that there is an actual person on the other end having to listen to this junk.

Oh, and cussing too. I absolutely hate it when they start cussing!
Paul is still eye candy, even in his 60s. nm

Halloween Candy
Milky Way!
hard candy
A wise old pediatrician told me long ago if you like hard candy, buy Life Savers - there is a reason for the name of that candy, hole in the middle, lets you breathe if stuck in your throat he said. Hot tea and white bread will help those problems. I had a child inhale a chocolate small easter egg and I had to tip him upside down as heimlich did not work, and he spit it out. It is very scary and I hope you are okay. take care and buy some life savers............
Congrats. See's is the BEST candy.

KVMs $20-60. One internet connection. You'd have no email or a 2nd email acct for your 2nd puter.

I don't understand. I didn't get email from MT Stars, I got email from offshore people
is what I'm talking about. I'm not a liar and take offense to your insinuation.
They can send an email that goes to all MTs in one shot. I think she just means a courtesy email
would be nice. MQ is not getting any easier. My account has been picked over thoroughly when it went on DQS by ASR and I get all the remains because they only have a core group doing ASR which I think is wrong because you get all the bad dictators and it would be nice to be acknowledged that at least you know the person you can discuss problems with as they crop up. This is a big one and we have no manager anymore and no one to discuss this with at all in my office so you just sit here very day doing this work and no way to vent to someone that could offer some suggestions on this and other issues that come up to help relieve some of the stress of working this way.
Just send an email to the email link inside the post.

I always dig in my son's candy for tootsie rolls! nm

Candy corn (see my post below) nm
zzzz
THANKS MTStars! The See's Candy tin arrived.
I cannot wait to dive into it!
I've got a candy sucker...
She just rattles that hard candy around clacking against her teeth and makes sucking sounds... Lovely! UGH!
GREAT GREAT SHOW! I still think Ellen Pompeo
should have gotten the Emmy/Golden Globe whatever it was for the show. I like Sandra Ho, her character just needs more depth... Next week looks AWESOME!! Maybe there is still a chance for McDreamy!! First season DVD coming out with deleted scenes! Can't wait to get it & watch it!!
Poll: What is your favorite Halloween candy? s/m
I always get a craving for candy corn this time of year!
Sugar free candy suggestions? (sm)
My father-in-law is diabetic and we are visiting him tomorrow.  I'd like to find him some yummy candy before I leave town.  Wal-Mart is the closest store to the interstate that is 24-hour.  Any suggestions for what I could find there?  Thanks. 
hahahaha! So, you don't like my wart? Hey, I have about 10,000 candy corns here right now! No kid
nm
I could NEVER trust myself around 10,000 candy corn, or even 100! they'd be gone in no time

but I would lie and say your wart is very becoming on you....in return for maybe 10 candy corn and about 5 of those pumpkin things


Is he having regular BMs? Could he be getting into candy or some other kind of 'stash' that yo

Again, because you entered your email address, you CAN receive email from anyone, but THEY

e-mail address because it is not revealed when they send mail because we have spam protection in place.  The only way they would know what your email address is, is if you reply to the email they send you.  If you don't want to receive any email from anyone, simply do not enter your email address in the Email field.

I intended to email it- already email the mods to remove

Not through the MTStars email server. Your email address is NOT
visible to anyone.  The only way your employer would know it is you is 1) if you respond when someone emails you, or 2) they recognize the way you write. 
Brooke is there for the guys. Eye candy like Dave Navarro.
Although I must admit Dave adds a lot more to the show than Brooke, I do understand why she is there. Something for everybody to draw a crowd.
Milk chocolate. Forget the rest of the candy.
I like most of the mini chocolate bars, but especially Butterfinger, KitKat, and Mr. Goodbar.
I've seen people put a sign up that says "OUT OF CANDY"
and that usually does the trick.
I hear mine suck hard candy all day. LOL sm
He's also done a few of those breathier burps. Yuck You'd think with his ability to edit over the dictation, he'd want to get rid of them, or at least say excuse me. LOL
So you enjoyed the candy? LOL! My daughter completed college at FIU and
