In Reply to: Got her in this morning, thanks. NM - sandy54

Have another question for you...just curious here...am I talking to Sandy Hames who used to work for YOG???  This is JoAnn (formerly Volgstadt)...aka Hummingbird from the Friendship Board.  If the vibe I'm getting is wrong, then disregard what I just said ;-)

I'll post how this goes after I try it.

Great news!
Where are some good places to apply? I am currently looking 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. 


Great news for Soft Script
There are a few of us going to the labor board in reference to Soft Script and their stealing of lines.  So far, we have a good case per the labor board.  Anyone and everyone that is interested in possibly getting their back wages, contact your local labor board and help us get what we have earned.
Super! Great news! Happy MT Day to you, too!

That's great news! What a happy ending for them.
~^,,^~
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?


That's a great news Rose, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your daughter

guess, that all we could do for now.


That's great news! Dogs respond to clear leadership. (nm)

just checked i-mail. no news. how did you get your news?
love,

frank
News flash..Don't know where you get your news, but the economy is doing very well.
s
My theory is no news is good news. (sm)
If there is really a problem with your transcription, then I would not worry about it. They will get to you if you screw up.

As far as policies and procedures, look in your manual. I am sure they gave you info for all of that stuff. JMO.
I have good news and bad news 4U...
The good news is on Saturday, July 1 many of your least favorite residents will be "graduating." The bad news is that on the same day you'll be getting a virtual box of candy with brand new residents who have no clue how to dictate! RU excited?? ARGHHHH!!!!
Saw him on CMT show with John Fogarty. Great, great singer with a neat personality and drop dead
gorgeous without seeming to know it. 
Great post. I swear by both Advantage and Frontline Plus-- both work great! - sm
I don't know about "natural" approaches for the house. I have always used flea bombs in the past before the miracle of Advantage and Frontline changed my life. Have not had a flea problem at all since I began using those products about 10 years ago, dose all the dogs religiously once a month with the Frontline Plus except in Dec.-Feb. to save a few bucks and because the ground is generally frozen by then and no fleas are scurring about. -- Hope you get flea free soon.
Thanks to all. Got some great feedback and ecouragement. This board is great.
My rant passed, ate a late lunch, now back to the trenches.
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!!
It is a GREAT company and great deal! I've had
Vonage about 6 months now and I love it. The only mistake I made was trying to keep my original phone # - I wouldn't recommend that. You have a temp # for a while, and the other provider can fight for the old #, etc. Go to vonage. com. They have new features all the time! There is even a new soft phone that is a phone on your screen. You don't need a real phone when working - just headset. It has 800 #s you can have very inexpensively - great voice mail. You get emails when you have new messages, etc. I only wish I had used them a year ago! Nothing but good things to say, and I complain about everything!
Sounds like he will do great then. Again, best wishes for great success!

That's great Patti. Thanks. Have a great time at the beach.

You should feel great as a transcriptionist if they think your work is that great!!!
It is not your fault they approached you. I think it would be a different storey if you were the one searching for the job to take away from a company. They obviously want to get rid of the company and if you didn't take the job they would probably ask someone else. You should enjoy the better position and not feel guilty!!
Great post -great job of wording your answer! (sm)
Original poster - I completely agree with this answer, especially the part about finding yourself and using all that you have learned intellectually and connecting that to something that you will also enjoy with your heart!! You have so many wonderful options for your future - much more than many of us.
IT - great program, great support system. nm

WOW, that is news. Thanks. nm

old news
This same type of e-mail has been passed around for years. It will not work. Check it out on snopes.com.
Very sad news

As hard as it is, you did the kindest thing you could.  Why is it that cats want to curl up on your foot that is running the foot pedal?  Or on top of your mouse?  Or in front of your monitor?


You have my sympathy.  Cats are people too!  Sometimes my cat seems to be the only one who understands me....at least the only one who listens.


 


Just saw that on the news!

where on fox news?
can't find it. can you post the link? I heard "rumors" that he has already received several offers..everything from being a popular band's new lead singer to solo recording deals. I hope to hear more from him soon. I really enjoyed his perfomances.
This is old news. sm
I can't even remember the name right now (not memorable anyway), but as I recall "Medical Transcripton" no longer appear in the name.  Someone please correct me if I am wrong. 
Could be bad news
If you have been out of work for 9-10 months for the past couple of year you might not be eligible for unemployment as you have to work so much in the past 5 quartes - 2005 to 2006 to be eligible.  And if you did not make much, then your benefit will be very little and yout IC could set off that.  You can look a lot of this up on your state's page.   They usually list what qualifies for it and what does not.  But good luck.  We all need help at one time or another and that is what it is there for.  I am more for you getting unemployment than an illegal coming into the states and having a surgery that I could not afford and we as tax payers pay for it.  Know that opens up another bucker of worms but that is my feeling. 
bad news ....

I was quite excited about your suggestion.  I talked with my daughter - that is out of my son's area of expertise. She works with software. She said it would have to be piggy backed onto the transcription software. I don't think companies would allow that.  I also thought about having a little gold coin dropping into a bucket on the screen after every line but she said same thing, piggy back. Oh well, back to my footpedal idea.


 


FOX has *nothing* to do with NEWS nm
no message (much like FOX, except for their messages of hate and intolerance).
that is old news - nothing new -
Philips is interested in selling their holdings in MQ.  Nothing has been announced further.  No mention of impending or imminent sale but we know the possibility exists.
News
No, that doesn't necessarily mean bad news for you. It could just be that they are going to make a decision from the people they've already interviewed and are no longer accepting apps for the position. It could also mean that the post expired. Relax.  If you get it, you get it.  If not, it wasn't meant for you so keep moving.
some time ago on the news...

natalee's mother had a "meeting" with the mother of one of the accused. it was after they had that discussion that natalee's mother started saying they were guilty. who knows what was discussed between the two moms, but it surely started something.


I've been watching the news but
haven't heard if anyone is claiming responsibility?  On a different note, I was just telling a friend yesterday that before 9-11 I heard that the biggest thing on the news was shark attacks.   Hoped it wasn't an omen.
I just assumed it was old news
I was aware of the other lawsuits, 4 in all I think. 
Go to CNN.com for all of your news updates.
I also get my local newspaper online free.  Why pay and kill trees when the highlights are all on the internet?
Watching the news
My heart goes out to those who are homeless, jobless, lost everything in their lives, many including loved ones.  I have come to appreciate my family, job and home so much in the last few days.  I stopped to get gas today, only needed 1/2 tank and it ended up costing $25, went up 35 cents since yesterday.  Somehow this is very scary, nearly everything we have comes through the trucking industry.  The ramifications of this will be far reaching, everything will go up......well, everything but an MTs pay, but hey, I have a job and I don't need to get in my car to do it. 
Don't believe the news media (sm)

You are so right.  Everything is going up but our wages and it's happening all over.  It is time for everyone to get their finances in order.  We are all going to have to tighten our belts and get our finances in order and get rid of credit cards! 


According to who...Faux News?

Did you see the news tonight?

Hundreds of children were killed, thousands and thousands have died in total they say. I am the mother of three children and watching those pictures on TV of those little lives lost is very disturbing, extremely saddening, and is a very emotional thing to watch or to try to even understand the magnitude of such losses for everyone involved or to make any sense of it all.


If you, by reading my post, misunderstood my post, I wholeheartedly appologize. It was not my intention to have a "hidden agenda" in my post. It was merely a question.


Commie news?
Well my dear, it was different back in the 50s, obviously which you know nothing about. The world is a different place today and yes my parents followed the Catholic region to a T not that I agree it. I didn't say they couldn't provide, they provided 7 kids with good educations and values (even though mine may be questioned on here, which I don't mind), and at the time when my dad was working his tail off for John Deere, those people in those days in the 20s did not believe in putting their money in stocks because of the year of 1929 if you even know what happened in that year. We did live in a house that my parents bought. I did not say we were not provided for, I said we had everything we needed, nothing more. Well you must certainly be naive to think that Mr. Bush is a good president. Have you lost any people/friends in a war that was uncalled for. Talk to a Viet Nam Vet and see what they have to say. I have 3 brothers who all served our country. I don't know where you live, but go to the Walter Reed Hospital and see the men there. You might get an education. Bush lies to us and if you can't see it, you better take your blinders off. I hope you don't have kids old enough to have to serve in a war. God help you if you do.
Good news - thanks
:)
They just did a breaking news bit on it..
they started saying 8yr old..now claiming it's a 15yr old that was shot and taken to the hospital.  I imagine alot of details will be sketchy until they have more time.  Again...God bless to all of you
Rudd, do you have any news yet? nm

News flash everybody!! - sm
After a nasty argument with ex H over his lack of interest in our daughter for the past 15 years, he informs me that I won't have a job in 3 years due to voice recognition taking over.  Yikes, where do I turn now?  And, since she will be 18 then, he is done financially.  Well, jeeze, since he hasn't been there emotionally for the past 15 years, he might as well stop paying his lousy $150/month.  I'm ticked off and laughing at the same time.  Just venting over the fact that ex idiot is taking pleasure in the thought that he thinks he knows something I don't know.    Obviously he has been doing some reasearch or how would he even know what voice recognition is?  Please excuse my very angry rant! I'm going to take a deep breath and try to forget the whole ugly conversation. 
News flash....
Why listen to the rantings of a man who thinks his own daughter is only worth $37.50 a week?

He may or may not research, but there is enough talk about Voice Recognition on TV and radio talk shows that he may have heard it mentioned there.

Please don't let his pettiness ruin your peace of mind.
Melatonin on the News

I'm really glad that melatonin is working for you. However, there was something on the news last night that studies have shown that melatonin is of no use in treating insomnia.


But, whatever works for you.....that's great.


Good news! sm
She wrote back about 2:30 and agreed to 8 CPL. Very happy. I know it's hard out there, as I was an MTSO. Very happy she could do it.
This is wonderful news.
Not only will you be making more money but you will be able to avoid the sometimes heavy hand of management which can be humiliating in certain ways, for me anyway.

I would suggest you find out the answer and then ask the hospital what their budget allows for transcription and come to a happy meeting place.

I say this because I am an IC for a clinic and one physician I type for was approached by finance dept for having too high of a bill with dictation services. They then had to begin using their templates for his routine and commonly used dictation which I am not paid for.

This all happened after someone in their payroll dept made a mistake and overpaid me, which I caught and immediately brought to their attention, but it was too late.

Please let us know if you would what the nationals are charging the hospitals, the usual and customary fee average. I heard it was 25 cents a line several years ago but this obviously has changed.

Congratulations to you!
