Congrat's New MQMT

All you can do is your best, go along with what you are hired at and knock em dead, so to speak! 


Keep the positive attitude and don't worry about the complainers.  Sure, I wish(hope) I get 9 cpl, still at base of 7.5, but you bring a positive vibe for us all


I'm sorry MQMT. Feel really bad
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
MQMT's view from her throne (sm)

It must be nice way up there in the clouds where you sit.  I don't check out these boards often, but in reading today's posts and your comments, I felt compelled to make a few statements.


Your replies to several posts 7/12 and 7/13/05 made me cringe.  There was a cartoon strip a few years back, Charlie Brown and friends, with a little dog named Snoopy who would sit up in a tree like a vulture and peer down on the rest of the pee-ons down below him.  You come across as Holier-than-thou as my late grandmother. 


Do you enjoy calling people lazy (or worse)?  I bet there would be several who would like to take your inventory.


I've transcribed for MQ since they were TLF and have been with them throughout all the changes that have come down the pike.  Some I have been frustrated with, but bottom line is I like what I do and it hasn't been bad enough (yet) for me to look elsewhere. 


Go ahead and flame - I've got my hose ready, too. 


 


 


Well, I think there are a lot of people that use MQMT but there is a lot of complaining in the

office I work in in the NE so check out those offices and I think you will find a lot of unhappy people.


Who sent you the paperwork? MQ or MQMT attorneys?
Be scared of what?  No raises, losing accounts, smoke and mirrors, turnkey CEOs. 
Amen MQMT! I think we have the same editors.
LOL.
all MQMT's need to reply to the letter
my last name is at the front of the alphabet and I haven't gotten anything. I sent an email to the gal in payroll and cc'd my supervisor and haven't gotten a response from either - wonder why?? you're absolutely right that everyone of us shouldn't take this lying down and needs to reply to the letter and not complain to our supervisors because we all know where that scenario goes - in one ear and out the other!!
Maybe they just threw everyone off
and no one else to post. BTDT.
Dang!! I Just Threw One Away!!
I just had mine croak a couple of months ago and threw it away. I never thought about keeping it to use for spare parts. I had a heck of a time finding one just like it. I finally ended up ordering it from Amazon because the ones at Staples are the newer model with the humongous wrist wrests.

So sorry. I hope you get it up and running again. I absolutely love mine.

Ellen S.
What do you think threw you, changes in puncuation, etc. according to BOS??nm
n
She just threw that out there to shut us up, I think
She posts here quite frequently, mostly to whine about her husband, stepson, MIL,and everything else. I don't believe she's really an intentional troll at all, just a complete moron who was trying to dig her way out of the sh*tstorm she started with this gem of a post.
Did you happen to notice the poster who called MQMT fools?
 Oh yeah you did.  You Amen that post.  PULEEZ!   Stop preaching.  You ain't no saint.
That's because NE has the 2 biggest complainers on this board daily! MQNE and MQMT!

for poster below who wanted contact regarding MQMT lawsuit, this is who I talked to.

Nice to talk to and can give you info regarding MQMT lawsuit so you can decide if it is something you are interested in pursuing.


same thing happened to me; i threw a fit with them. sm
i ended up getting my 4th installation under my initial purchase registration # but they did inform me if it happens again, i will have to purchase.  i refuse to although my company requires it.  i haven't ran into needing it again but i am sure i will eventually.  you can buy the (whatever that external USB thing is called) which allows unlimited installs, but not after your initial purchase and i, like you, was not informed about all that as my company purchased for me and withheld from my pay.  win XP does a similar thing and only limits the installs on the software.  i think they both are a bunch of BS.  i pay for it, i deserve to do what i want with it.  can't help my hard drive crashed, etc.
I threw out the ice cube trays. sm

I posted this advice a few months ago.  I got sooooooooo tired of going to get ice and finding empty trays in the freezer and some in the sink.  So I just threw them out. 


About 2 days later, the kids (and hubby) are like, "How come we don't have any ice? And where are the ice cube trays"  My reply was, "I THREW the ice cube trays away because we NEVER have had any ice and we NEVER will. At least this way I KNOW that when I want some ice for my soda, there will not be any ice in my house EVER AGAIN!"  :) 


They all thought I was crazy.


I also put the trash can out in the garage and I hang up a plastic grocery bag on the door handle of the garage door until it is full enough to tie up and go out in the trash can.  Otherwise, I get the "TOSS" with spilled stuff everywhere,  and the "PYRAMID" and have to get out the trash bags to clean the stuff up.


I shined my house spotless one day and then spent a couple of weeks cleaning just my own stuff.  Washed my own dishes, cleaned my own spills, picked up my own clothes, did my own laundry (including towels that I hid for myself) cleaned my "toothpaste overflow" out of the bathroom sink, etc. (of course I cleaned the toilet and washed the floors, because that is just to icky).


At any rate, after the first day, they were washing dishes on "as per needed" basis.  After about 3 days, everyone was like, "Why is the house such a mess?"


I said, as I walked over shoes that didn't make it into the "shoe basket" by the door, and totally ignored the "clutter" everywhere: "GEE I don't know, I clean up after myself well enough."


They got the hint.  Things aren't immaculate, but much better.



 


I was in the same boat until I threw a $ amount at him.

Then he said, "What are you talking to me for? Get back to work!"


 


hears to ears through to threw
Sorry no wonder you are so down on being a Transcriptionist as it is evident you have problems spelling. 
You tell them my sister MQMT. MQ fire patrol out in full force today!
But we can contain their idiot remarks with logic.
What threw me is that they knew my last name and it is not in my e-mail address.
dd
Yes! The "blue link" thing threw me, too,
Poster above explained the pulling number deal, but still not clear if that is for sure what it means. Oh well! Guess I'll just have to go buy myself something cool for MT Week. Master Card and Visa don't care if I'm a rocket scientist or not! :D
I went into this without prejudice, threw myelf actually, but it seems to get worse...
instead of better. I feel I got a pay cut with almost the same amount of work. Some jobs are great, then you get 3-4 that are heavy in editing and it ruins anything you got with a good 1 or 2.
Kind of ashamed to admit I threw daughter's card away
I know some will call me petty. We haven't ever had the best relationship because she has been a difficult kid since grade school. Just really, really hard to deal with and nasty much of the time. I keep trying and trying and trying and trying. I help her out financially when I can, watch the baby every day while I'm trying to work, too.  I had tears picking out a card for her, and I put some money in there with a little note to treat herself. Yes, I took the money out and tossed the card. I know it sounds harsh, but I feel like I keep putting forth the effort and barely get a thank you in return. Instead, I get a "what's your problem?" Now my son..I can deal with. At least he treats me with some kindness and he tries.
I think it depends where you live. My parents threw a huge party sm
for me when I graduated with about 150 people. The gifts weren't in the $100 range but it was 23 years ago. I received over $5000 in gifts and that was used to help buy the things I needed to go away to college such as bed linens, dorm furnishings, etc. The rest was used over the 4 years to subsidize when I needed extra for something. Yes, my parents paid for college, to the tune of $25k per year. They were happy to do it and proud when I graduated with honors and got a good job afterwards.

I'm going to do the same for my 2 kids that my parents did for my sister and I. There is nothing wrong with working hard to give your kids the best in life and nothing wrong with celebrating their milestones. If you don't agree with graduation parties, don't go to them, but if you don't celebrate your kids' milestones and make them special occasions, who will?

I threw my back out playing dodge ball in 2nd grade. nm

Or discpline time! My kids would be very sorry if they threw things at me or in the house. Two hours
is not too long for them to give you some space.  That's really sad for you, but maybe try to rein them in.  Can't hurt, right?
My 8-year-old threw up on the way home from family celebration Christmas Eve, all over the back seat

Then threw up approximately every hour from 10:00 p.m. until 8:00 a.m. Christmas morning.  Not the Christmas I had planned, up cleaning bodily fluids all night.  Somehow Santa managed to come overnight, too.  My husband, me and the 2-year-old didn't get the bug until last night, it's vicious!  Hopefully that's all over now and we can enjoy the rest of our vacation!


 


 


If it's different for each report, my guess (only a guess)
would be no. I think the macro would work if it was the same each time, but not sure if it will if the documents are different each time.
then I guess it is just a
matter of process by elimination....Thanx for the info....
GUESS WHAT
The post right above mine ISNT ME!!!!!  But she did capitalize in  her post.  OHHHHH.  Could there be 2 of US????
Are you 19:13:49? Guess not! nm
LOL
guess not! nm

Well, I guess...
I simply can't afford to go! That and gas would ruin my budget...
Guess not.

Well, I guess you don't want more help. :) nm

I guess you are SM

just plain stupid and can't read.  I have a job and make good money. 


Plus that, I can afford to not work for peanuts and hold out for the better paying position because I have a lot more skills than just MT.  First of all, I can read and understand the English language which you obviously cannot.  AMF


Guess
AND ONLY YOU WOULD KNOW!
GUESS WHAT
A BIG FAT LOSER AS WELL!
My guess
My guess is that since you are the one who noticed, you are probably the one writing the nastygram posts - now you have someone to blame it on because of someone else's misfortune - I have power and I live in Florida, too bad the people who do not have power cannot respond to your rude remarks about the misfortunate.
I guess I am really different
I love OB-GYN most of all. Of course, I have had the same three docs for over 10 years and I have had the liberty of asking them to turn their recorders all the way up and they have obliged. They speak very loudly and clearly. Even after all these years, for some reason, I am not bored with the work. My female docs dictate normally two pages on every patient (my male doc dictates about half a page) so I get a lot of dictation and a lot of canned paragraphs to boot.

When I worked for a large national, I liked the Infectious Disease docs the best but I hated having over 100 dictators in several specialties.

I now work for a small MTSO (plus have my own OB account) and I have nine GI docs and I really enjoy it thus far.
to each their own I guess
I thought the bomb scene was totally realistic, how in the heck did they film that, unbelievable.
guess what I was asking was
how do others break into this? Is it usually done by word of mouth, answering ads, or your own marketing. But, Thx, I will take a look back a few days
Ah, yes, I guess there are...
those kinds of adapters. LOL, ''gender changer'' (rather a misnomer for the female-to-female and male-to-male ones, though, huh?).

Thanks, WeekendMT! Sticking with my homemade equalizer dealio for now, but this is good to know about (never heard of such a thing before).
would guess it is 14-17 cpl now...nm

I guess I'm not the only one....(nm)

Well, I guess somebody has to do it. (sm)
But it won't be me! 
Guess you are right
not to feed the trolls. It is hard though, sometimes, when you see them ganging up on some poor innocent unsuspecting poster who just wanted to post what she was making for dinner that day and all of a sudden she is a target for rude abuse. It is not fair, and sometimes it is not easy to keep quiet. I am done for the day though, as they are dragging me down too. Can't win when they think they are right to be able to hurt someone else. Just glad I am not the only one that feels that way though. Thanks for your input. Keep reminding us not to feed the trolls...it may help. lol
guess we know what Mom would say

You made the income, you spent the income, you owe the taxes.  Hopefully you are putting money aside to pay this year's taxes.  I feel for you in a way but you gotta be disciplined and put money aside to pay your taxes.   You can work out a payment plan with the state but why should they write yours off and not mine.


 


I guess I can see that for
in-house positions or people working with money.  But I wonder why they would want that kind of information for someone strictly doing transcription at home.  I've had credit card debt and even some collections in the past but not because of irresponsbility but because of illness, job loss, etc.  I just think it'd be a shame for somebody with bills to not get a job they need and want so they can pay off those bills, just because they have those bills, KWIM?  Thanks for responding!
Okay, I guess that's a little different.
If both of you are on a talking basis already, kind of different. I am just imaging one of my husband's exes, ha!

A ductogram, huh? I hope I never have to have one of those since you say they are so painful. I don't like getting anything done anymore though after the doctor messed me up so bad during my liver biopsy. If I see instruments of any kind, I automatically cringe. I had an IUD put in recently and thought I was going to have a panic attack because the nurse kept messing with those things beforehand.

Hope everything turned out alright for you! :)
To each their own, I guess :)
I do think it is quite ridiculous that God has been taken out of the Pledge of Allegiance, etc. I just guess I look for more practical solutions.

I think everyone should have a right to their religious beliefs, including Christians. To push everything out that has anything to do with God is going to the other extreme. Everything has to be so politically correct now, like the whole Happy Holidays thing.

I'm not into organized religion, but someone saying Merry Christmas or my kids hearing God in school is not offensive to me. God can mean many different things to different people. They both do things organized by churches sometimes. A parent should let their kid make their own decision, in my opinion.

However, we still need an overhaul of our mental health care system and school system for that matter. Those are practical solutions that will work now.
