    Rape is assault
    Legally, morally, and physically.
    rape is an assault

    for sure but must specify sexual assault or could mean physically assaulted. I just think for medical information, must know how the patient was injured.


    Assault is not necessarily rape

    We already ARE, for all intents and purposes...sm
    owned by other countries. We owe so many countries now that we are living on completely borrowed money. For instance, those economic stimulus checks? They are via yet another loan from China! The money that Bush keeps appropriating for the Iraq war? It's coming from China, too. Should any of these countries (which research tells me IS coming by fall) call in the tabs, we will be a bankrupt nation once again. Several news articles on TV as well as what can be found on the internet only go to prove that the interest alone on the $$ that we owe other nations is totally and utterly ASTRONOMICAL. It's pretty sad when the illegals could get better and more benefits than this country's hard-working citizens - but it's a real fact. And I don't see that changing any time soon, either - it's votes in the pocket for ANY prez nominee at this time! When you find that hole, be sure to take staples with you - those are going to get few and far between sooner than later, as well, 'cause this is going to affect YOU before your children, believe me!

    political? I think this is pertaining to life
    I think this turned into whether or not you spank your child not what is happening in the schools/govt.
    For entertainment purposes only, but listen to your
    aaaaaaaa
    feedback pertaining to IC accounts
    and ease of use basically.  Are they reliable and easy to use?  Have never used one until now.  Do you need a separate phone line? 
    We sell looms, books pertaining to that..
    Would that be something that would be eligible?
    Does anyone have any voice files they could share for testing purposes?

    I think EVERYTHING pertaining to religion is a hoot! People are such SHEEP!

    Assault on the English Language
    I transcribe for a doctor who I think may be Russian, but anyway, he has lived in this country (USA) for many years and has not taken the time to learn to speak succinctly. As a matter of fact, he seems to be dyslexic on top of the heavy accent and often phrases words backwards, does not know how to speak concisely, and I am thinking whoever has the misfortune of reading his HNP's is going to think he is a real Dip (even after editing). Even our editors have a real challenge getting through his work. I wish I could shake the snot out of him and require that every ESL physician practicing in America be required to speak the English language fluently.
    Does anyone know how to adjust the speed of a Windows Media Player for testing purposes? nm Thanks

    Having the assault taken off his record was a condition of his probation. SM

    So, I'm not sure if at the end of his probation if he had to contact anyone or follow it up in anyway.  We know it's not on there anymore because he's going to nursing school now and had to get his CNA license as a prerequisite for the prgram and they did a background check for that.


    I'll ask him.  He's not here now.  While I'm working, he and my son are at the boat show figuring out how to spend my paycheck! 


    "Assault" is not the same as "rape" when you get into definitions. An assault can be mi
    a rape is definitely not.
    I agree with her 100%. sounds like you dont want to admit QA needs to fix things
    No one is saying you are a bad QA person, just that she is getting conflicting results and it should be one standard, not 2 or even 3.

    No one is bashing anyone. You are bashing yourself by saying you stink. I have been in this position before and went straight to the QA person and talked about it. They explained to me that sometimes its a preference of style.
    Agree completely. I have seen some god-awful things in reports.
    Things that are guessed at and sometimes even legitimately looked up and searched for, unfortunately not finding the correct word.  I told an MT once, "You can't just type that this patient is on that drug just because it is for the same symptoms.  You have to type what the doctor is saying."  I couldn't believe it.  I have seen some stuff, let me tell you, and 38 cms is the least of it.  I had a supervisor ask me once if I was "sure" that ostial was a term used in a cardiac cath and that "osteal" referred to bone.  DUH!  If I wasn't sure we wouldn't be having this conversation!  Then they get clerks to listen.  Puuhlease!  I'm not even QA and I scratch my head and wonder why people like that are in this business if they aren't in it to do a first-class job.  Once I had a team leader route me a report that she had started because she said her "head was stuffy " and she couldn't hear."   I couldn't believe the report when I looked at it.  Obviously nothing looked up, not even spell checked.  My 15-yo could have done a FAR better job.  Nobody cares.  They are just in it because they think they can still make the "easy money."  It's not bad money, but it's not like it used to be.  And management thinks we can all be so easily replaced by whoever steps off the bus next.  It's very disheartening to me.
    I dont agree with any of the things you are saying here but I moved on so it doesnt matter.

    I am doing a rape transcription
    How horrible
    I agree, jeez, I can't believe how quick people are to suggest quitting the minute things are bad.

    Legal or what? IC help.
    OK, I need some IC help please? I just quit my IC position and was told after the fact that I would NOT be paid for my last 30 days of working because I did not give proper notice per contract.   Well to make a long story short I didn't sign a contract.  So what would you seasoned ICs do?  
    This is not legal
    Sorry but this is not legal and if you get caught it can be insurance fraud with big consequences.  Legally and morally you should not be on his insurance coverage, if you chose to stay on it, live with yourself and the fear of "getting caught".   This is where our morals are going down the tube in this country.  Lie and cheat to get what we want and something for nothing. 
    Med-Legal
    if anyone does work for CMLS doing med-legal docs? If so, any feedback, good, bad, or indifferent would be appreciated. Thanks!
    What I was doing is legal. sm
    I was using a trial version to see if I liked it. I paid to have the complete 2003 version put on my new computer. I would not use a bootleg version software for work. That was my point. However, I hate to pay that much to put it on my son's computer just so he can take a single high school class. I may have to work it so he can use my computer to send his work in, because he needs Word format.
    Regardless of whether it's legal or not, I think
    At a time when hundreds of thousands of American jobs have been lost, with surely more to come this year, sending ANY job overseas that could be done by a better-qualified American is wrong.

    Of course, they're not going to outlaw offshoring. But it needs to stop being such a cash cow for American businesses. Many of them know what they're doing is wrong, but do it anyway in order to make more money for themselves. Or they do it because they don't have the backbone to stand up to medical institution management who cuts MT expenditures because they basically know little to nothing about MT. To them it's just something they can easily cut without any guilt, because they don't have to face those workers every day in person.

    The government needs it pointed out to them that there are at least 2 major benefits to taxing the offshoring of American work: (1) More money paid in taxes by big business, who can afford it. (2) Fewer Americans out of work, and once again paying taxes and contributing to the economy again, instead of having to RECEIVE money from the government in order to survive.

    legal
    Have you thought of doing legal transcription for a company? I don't know of any, but I wonder if there aren't some out there? Makes sense. Hope your travels are fun!
    Of course it's legal - It's Your Job
    Are you working for an MTSO?  They may even decide to put you on a new account every other day!  Yes, they can do that.  Have had it done to me many times.  Had to get used to it.  You have not really given this a lot of time.  With time comes experience and $$.  You will become more knowledgable and faster at what you do.  It does really matter whether they did it now or later, you would still be on a new account that you did not know.  Besides, you said yourself you are struggling, what if you like the new account better!!!
    The last of my brood will be legal age when I'm your age.
    Originally, we had planned on retiring from our jobs and being done raising kids by 40 years old.  It didn't work out that way!   LOL  There's something to be said for having kids later in life after your career is established and you've learned patience.
    Legal transcription
    Has anybody transcribed legal notes?  If so, did you find easier or about the same as medical?  Just curious.
    Legal Transcription
    It depends what type of law is involved. Patent/tax is dull and boring. I worked for years as a legal Transcriptionist for an auto company in product litigation. This was not boring. As far as difficulty, medical transcription has much more to learn.

    Legal action
    First of all, my condolences to you and your wife. I feel for you. I lost an adult child 14 years ago. Among the many aspects of grief, the realities of your deceased child's legal affairs can be a nightmare. I am not a legal expert and I don't know if any legal changes have been made in the past years. At the time our son died he left behind a student loan for $13,000.00 and a personal loan for about $5,000.00. He was over the age of 21 when he signed for these loans. It was a nightmare for me and my husband. These creditors hounded us and threatened to get the money from us even though our son was 23 at the time of his death. One creditor even tainted our credit report because my son and his father had the same name. It was a complete nightmare for a couple of years. We sought legal advice, send copies of the death certificate to the creditors several times, and eventually things got straightened out. In your case you have an individual who claims money is owed to him. Did you daughter have a will? I assume she was still legally married. I would definitely seek legal advice. I doubt this individual can force you to pay on her debt if there indeed was one. However, you can stop the harassment by legal means. Seek legal counsel. The last thing you need is this aggravation. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
    not a legal anything anymore
    You really need to speak with an attorney about this. I see several issues: 1- she was not divorced, as I understand it, so her husband might have rights to the m/c; 2- Dependant on the existance (I spelled that wrong huh) of a will, who knows who actually owns the bike; but, 3- if the bike is in her name on the title, and there is no leinholder, odds are, the seller has no legal footing (unless there's a contract of sorts with receipts to verify his legal standing).... it boils down to, talk to an attorney in your state, laws vary so much state to state.

    I'm so sorry for your loss, and so sorry this had to pop up to get in the way of your grieving and healing process.
    Has anyone ever done legal transcription? sm
    Just wondering what it is like, how you get into it.  Thanks for any info!  Have a great day.
    Legal Transcription
    Yes, I have done legal transcription before I became an MT. I absolutely loved it! It wasn't just depositions (which weren't that bad to me), but letters, all court documents, everything involved in a legal office. I had no problems with it. This was about 10 years ago. It was a temporary position, and I was later offered a permanent position with them which I would have taken in a heartbeat had I not been pregnant for my now-9-year-old son and in the process of moving. Actually, at the time I worked there, it was considered a legal "word processor" but most of the work was transcription from tapes. It was great!
    No legal training, but...
    I did have secretarial and word processing experience. I think my average wpm back then may have been about 80-90 wpm. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes to type/transcribe and is good with the English language, grammar, and spelling!
    It probably is legal but certainly not ethical.

    Legal issue
    Received an email from the company with an attachment that says we have to sign it, giving them the right to access at any time our email and computer files.  We do not have email through the company and the computer is mine, not theirs.   Why would I be required to sign this to keep my job?  It's none of their business what's on my personal computer or what's in my emails!!!
    Legal issue
    They have absolutely no right to your private emails or personal files. If it is your computer, they have no legal right to access it in any way, actually, without your permission.

    Check with an attorney.....I did.
    Legal issue
    My business attorney said NOT to sign such an agreement. They are free to access my MQ computer but not my personal computer. We have confidential financial data on there.
    Not exactly ethical, nor is it legal. nm
