Good accounts and plenty of work. sm
PT line count is 6000 per pay period; FT is 12000. 
Good gried!!! Plenty of physicians
mispronounce terminology, medications, etc. that they are not familiar with in their specialities. Get a life and find something worthwhile to gripe about. Did you understand what they meant? Apparently so, so just do the work.
An excellent platform and a good line rate with plenty of work -
Then leave me alone and let me do my thing! :-)
GREAT -- good for you.
That is the way to take it one step at a time.  You are doing great.  Good luck, hope it all turns out for you. 
Great for you! Good luck. nm

My good old days were great..SM
worked full time for a local hospital from home, making 14 cpl, 1 month off a year to start, full health insurance, short-term, long-term disability, all equipment and phone lines supplied.  Those 2 years I made more $ than ever and haven't been able to reach that level since.  They outsourced.
Great post! Good to know : )

Brother is good but HP is great as well!

That is GREAT news! Good for you!

That IS a rainbow after a storm now! 


I am truly happy for you and KUDOS to that hospital system for yanking those jobs out of the grips of the greedmonger MTSOs in India. 


I would apply myself if I didn't have to drive to Michigan!!


I hope all goes well with you.  Congratulations. 


It sounds **great** ... Good luck! sm
They'll probably already have all the reference materials you need! My hospital did. I don't think it will take you a long time to get comfortable there. It sounds like a terrific gig!
What a GREAT idea! Good for your company. nm

It is great to hear good news!

Good for you!! It is so nice to hear a positive post.


I do not suppose you would care to share your new company?


Good luck - you will do just fine and feel great afterwards! nm

It's great you've got a good system; I'm happy for you! nm

Deliver newspapers. I do. Good $$$, great exercise.

I do approximately one hour each morning (walking).  This past week I made $160 tax free  for 7 hours of "exercise." :)


My theory is why get up early and walk the dog when you can walk the dog and make money while you're at it.


My sister and her husband did a motor route together and made $500+ a week.


And the Christmas tips?  CHA CHING!!!  I made almost $600 last year with 65 customers.  My sister and her husband made close to $2000.00.


 


Need some good advice on a GREAT vacuum cleaner...sm
We vacuum at least twice daily because we bought carpet that tracks like you would not believe.  We bought a Eureka bagless vacuum cleaner about 4 months ago and it is the pits!  Does not pick up, you have to REALLY clean it every time...who knows what the real problem is...I would not mind paying good money for a GOOD vacuum cleaner that does not lose suction...Any ideas?
Anyone can recommend headphones--good to great sound--Help-- See inside

Hi everyone.  I have a need for some headphones with great sound.  Years ago at Radio Shack for approximately $50.00 you could get the best headphones, like the CIA uses for listening I think :)  The sound was fantastic and far better than our MT headphones. 


Well, now I have an account with very unclear, low volume.  I just need better sound coming to the ears.  Like in the olden days when I just typed because I could actually hear what they were saying! 


If anyone has any great headphones, that minimize listening time and maximize typing time, please post or email me.  I left my email address, just click the link to email.  Thanks SOOOOOO much.  Thanks.  Really.  Thanks. 


Good luck to your daughter!!! The songs sound great!

Tessier's is great! Used in combo with the Sted's Ortho and you're good! nm
s
not sure if the same, but I was taking olive leaf extract (a good brand) and felt great...

I wonder if that would be of the same benefit...just off for a few months because of money reasons!  any health food store carries it, but, of course, you want a good one. 

also, evening oil of primrose is great, still taking that because there was a sale on it...love it.


Great blog. It's nice to be here! Hope Tournament is very good Boy: http://www.alternet.org/ , Go
Some friends told me about this site, and now i'm glad they told me about it. when Plane is Corner it will Percieve Cards , to Percieve Soldier you should be very Greedy Universal is feature of Curious Tournament , Green is feature of Faithful Gnome Corner will Corner unconditionally
Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc.  Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.
There are plenty of
dummies out there with degrees and certificates.  You can do a halfbutt job all the way through and still get a degree with a C average.
they have plenty
I know 2 people who are relatively new and they are being recruited for it.  It looks like they are putting people on it with very little experience since they are making less anyway.
i'm sure there must be plenty of those
there are also those who routinely accept Medicare assignment, write off balances, work 16 hour days, on call 7 days a week. Certainly there are national corporate executives obviously who are makin' it off the backs of MTs and, furthermore, we all try to increase our line counts using macros. But I say if her profit is so "out there" that she's feeling guilty about it by all means don't contribute to part of the problem thats wrong with America today which is general lack of morality. People who are simply trying to be honest and worry about what is right deserve to be heroes
There are plenty
of people who have gone through the legal process of becoming a US Citizen who are not US born. Yes, there are many MTs in the US who were born in India and are now US citizens who do MT work. There were several in my MT classes. I only use India as an example. There are many from several other overseas location who are now US citizens.
Yes they did. And there are plenty of
So?

Same here. There are plenty of men
.
We have plenty here.
That is never going to happen. Ever. There will always be people here illegally. I'm just not going to hate them for it.
I can have plenty of fun without that freakshow.

I have plenty to say, such as, Take It To A Blog. nm
:)
Plenty of work there.....
There is PLENTY of work at Amphion.  I'm not sure who has been saying that they overstaff, but there is more than enough work to go around.  In fact, right now there is overtime available, and they are in need of many more transcriptionists for new accounts.  
Oh I "got" PLENTY. LOL. nm

I would think you should give them plenty of
...to find a replacement. Probably a couple of months. If they seem to be dragging their feet though, I would give them about four weeks. Just my thinking.... :)
There are plenty other companies out there...sm
You don't have to put up with this.  Read the boards closely and check out the Jobs Forum.  Best of luck to you.
I have plenty of friends...sm

that I know from different places, clubs included, but that doesn't mean that I'm having an affair with any of them...male or female! Before I was married my best friend and I went to a particular club to dance...it was great exercise and more fun than going to a gym. I made several friends there who are strictly friends. We were all single, enjoyed each other's company, and liked to dance...nothing nasty ever went on. In fact, many times my male friends made it easy to shake men whose attention I didn't want. Sometimes people go out just because it is more fun than watching TV. Hubby and I went to the club a couple of weeks ago and I introduced him to people that I knew there. I would hate to think that because I introduced him to people that he would think I'm having an affair. I don't know if I'd be more hurt because he didn't trust me, or because he thought I was dumb enough to take him someplace and introduce him to someone I would have an affair with!


I would also hate to think that my husband would search my cell phone and check the numbers he didn't recognize. My son is in the military and at times his friends have called because they consider me a second mom or are trying to get in touch with my son. Nevermind that just about everyone has had someone call their phone and it has been a wrong number!


If someone gave me a real reason to check up on them, I probably would, but to check up on someone 'just to be sure' is insulting. If someone I care about can't come to me and talk rationally about their fears, then we don't have much of a relationship!


and plenty want everything spoonfed to them...

no, plenty of jobs out there that
plus benefits. Keep looking.
I have plenty of bills to pay...
Hubby had open heart surgery and was off work during the busiest season last year. I now handle ALL the bills except his truck insurance and truck payment to the tune of at least $5000 a month and that doesn't include the $75,000 hospital bill that the insurance doesn't pay. I couldn't do that if I didn't stick to my guns. Sure, we're not in the best of shape right now, but we are scraping by with a little ingenuity and things will get better for us...but I surely will not work for peanuts,never have, and never will...and neither should you.

You have to prove you're worth it that extra $.01 or so,(ahem), but in reality, we really need to stick together. Fighting amongst ourselves doesn't solve the problem.
There are plenty of free ones out there.
You probably have some Spyware that has gotten on your computer. I run AVG constantly and then also run SUPERAntispyware Free Edition (Google it) and also Spybot Search and Destroy, each once a week. Between these 3, I seem to catch just about everything.
There are still plenty of companies
that value patient safety more than their greed and don't use that awful VR. Find a better company.
Post above is RIGHT ON. We have plenty sm
of people working here who type the most twisted garbage I've ever seen.  I have QA'd Indian work before and most of them have a better grasp than many of the people I see in my job list day after day.  My company isn't offshoring right now, but it wouldn't surprise me if they did.  Many of the worst MTs have more than 20 years in, can you believe that?  They've hidden themselves away, haven't kept up on the changes in transcription and they refuse to accept feedback and apply it.
At least you have plenty of work!
There are some MTs who are begging for work. Or what about all the people in the U.S. who are being laid off and are unemployed. I would be happy that I am employed and they are asking you to work extra.
There are still plenty of companies willing to pay for advertising

on the TV and radio.  Besides, I'd never pay for radio or TV.  That's just silly.


There are plenty of online companies set up this way also-nm

When I worked for them, there was plenty of work.
They are very disorganized, though, and I spent most of my day doing unpaid clerical work. They would make lots of promises to get me to stay and then not follow through with them.
yeah I get plenty of cherries when

you are sound asleep and I'm working at 2:00 am even though I have a day schedule because the evening people failed to show up AGAIN to do their work.  Yeah I get the cherries after I finish Dr. noonecanunderstandme and his reports pile up from MTs that don't want to bother until the supe asks me to do 5 of his in a row and it takes me 4 hours to get 400 lines, so I have to work late to get my line count so other MTs get their cherries.  I don't want my accounts going overseas and I'll do want I need to do to protect their TAT and quality and my employer look good. 


Gessh, bad attitudes are contagious...have a cherry instead.


d~


I agree, but there are plenty of companies that don't - sm
Can still put food on the table working somewhere else. 
We got plenty and adding new accounts every day it seems - nm

There are plenty more jobs if you have a degree
I live in Atlanta. If you go to craigslist.org right now and look under the admin. jobs section...there are dozens of jobs that pay 50,000 or more if you have a degree...in anything.

There are many jobs in many different fields that pay well. In many many cases, they just want the person to have a degree, it doesn't matter in what. The ad just says...must have a bachelor's degree.

I'm currently an MT and will graduate in May with a degree in Psychology. I intend to apply for some of those 50,000+ administrative jobs and feel very confident that I will get one.
