I didn't mention his gender in my post at all

Posted By: I was questioning his qualifications as a vet and on 2005-09-23
In Reply to: the essence of what i was saying - sm

as you so eloquently put, the fact he does not communicate with his patients.

Being an animal doctor hardly qualifies any person or any gender to run a government health program for any person of any gender.

Being smart and trustworthy are only part of what it takes to run such an agency. Maybe a little experience?

    You didn't mention how much experience you have

    If you are relatively new to the field (1-2 years' experience), you may be offered $1.00 to $1.25 per report. 2-5 years' experience, possibly up to $1.50. And obviously on up from there with more experience.


    My pet peeve is that some nationals pay the same for plain chest x-rays as they do for CTs and MRIs. They say it evens out but it sure doesn't seem that way. Personally I think getting paid by the line is more equitable.


    Fact: You didn't mention the lawsuits again.

    New MT Class Action lawsuit (Myers v. MQ, 10/05/05) ... of course still pending:

    http://www.corporate-ir.net/ireye/ir_site.zhtml?ticker=MEDQ&script=411&layout=-6&item_id=763934 ........  (interestingly, no original press release on this one ... maybe because filed against Philips and MQ only named 'nominal defendant,' so why bother?)


    I agree, although I too didn't see any mention of the 17 cpl in the posting.

    I think it was a "teaser."  The MTSO may offer 17 cpl at some point, but it certainly isn't clearly stated at what point or with what experience.  Most of us already do very difficult ESLs for half that rate.


    I personally have had much better experiences with small MTSOs than large nationals. 


    didn't mention boys or girls - but what about Dorothy, scarecrow, tin man and the lion from SM

    has nothing to do with his gender
    I've seen a multitude of women in this business who are not management material and mess with people just "because they can".
    Remember gender
    If you are a female you are a Filipina, and if you are a female you are a Latina.
    Didn't the post say PT, 15,000? THAT's PT???nm

    I didn't think she was being mean about my post.....was she?
    I didn't take it that way. 
    Didn't know the other post was from you
    and I do have a hard time believing $98K in just 30 hours a week, but anything is possible I suppose.
    oh. I obviously didn't see the post below before.
    I thought it was just like your existential scream for the day or something, heh.


    I have a gender problem when I type! Seems everytime I get my QA eval I always get counted off

    because I've typed he instead of she or his instead of her.  It drives me crazy!  I always pass with at least a 98%, but I'm always making this mistake and I feel like an dunce every time I see it on paper!


    I know how it happens.  I'm just not paying attention and I'll just forget its a he or a she or I'll forget what patient I'm on and think I'm still on the "the lady with the pelvic pain..." and type she when really it's a he.


    Anybody have any suggestions to help me remember my genders?

    I didn't get any of what you said from the previous post
    I think the poster was just saying that nationals do those things mentioned.  Nowhere was it said in her post that nationals are crooks.  Those are your words and you're trying to put them in her post because she she contradicted your theory.

    Me, too. I was going to post earlier, but didn't
    have the energy. I had the twitching thumb first about a year ago, now aches and pains every week that move or migrate all over, too. Numb legs, butt that kills me - seriously, I nearly cry when I sit down or stand up. Then it moves to my neck, or shoulders, and then back to legs. It is horrible pain, and I'm getting really worried that I'm not going to hold up for this job much longer. Its so pathetic - sitting in a chair and falling apart. I was wondering if it could be fibromyalgia-type symptoms. Horrible. You are not alone! I have also bought so many ergonomic things - chair, keyboard, mouse "platform", and forget it. Oh yes, even lighting, and I still am in pain all over the second I sit down in this chair.
    You need to reread the post. I didn't say
    all the freebies were scams. 
    I didn't get your post either Rita.
    Did he do the face lift or not?  If he did the face lift and dictated it at a later date and predated the report then that goes on all of the time.  When a doctor fails to dictate then it is is dictated at a later date but the date of the actual service or the study, etc. is performed usually does not change. 
    Never mind..I didn't see your post answering that sm
    very question below.

    Mea Culpa.

    And sadly, I don't have the Spheris Expander to which you were referring.

    I didn't read your way-too-long post, but...
    did you type all that out, or copy and paste from somewhere, cause if you typed it all out...you need to get a life and quick!

    I didn't post that but if I had to make a guess...

    I would guess the poster meant that newbies always feel they have a high accuracy. 


    Don't be offended....if that is what was meant.


    Ask your QA or supervisor where you stand.  At least you care !!! 


    Didn't post the question but I have the same problem
    thanks for a great suggestion.
    Two times mine didn't......but I think I saw a post

    Sorry. Didn't read your post correctly
    I don't use the compile feature, but build my glossaries as I go along. Never cared for the results I got with compiling.
    ooops - SORRY! I didn't relize my first post
    my apologies!
    She didn't put any names or even employment locations with her post --
    she simply listed errors she sees. I would keep a list as well; could be very useful in training new MTs or orienting even experienced MTs about what they have had in the past, how easy it is for one to just "type what they hear" and not pay attention, etc.

    She didn't do anything wrong.
    Hey, no problem. I didn't post a name or initials, so you probably wouldn't have known it was

    well, excuuuuse me. I didn't realize it had been deleted till after my first post

    I didn't assume since that post was on there before I started my shift at noon
    ...........and this post for help was posted only a couple of hours ago. I couldn't imagine leaving a note up for that long.

    But, you are right, ya never know. :)
    Didn't see your post but apparently we agree it is a good site! lol
    nm
    No offense, but your post didn't make any sense whatsoever.
    Maybe you didn't explain it right, but I read and re-read and don't understand a thing you just said.
    I didn't know I need to post EVERY reason I got into MT...Good God! **rolling eyes***
    I stand by my posts as well. YES I did say my children, but pardon me for not listing EVERY SINGLE REASON I got into MT. My children are always number one at the top of my priority list as they should be and that's why I mentioned them. And no, I'm having a good day, but I am astounded with the nastiness on these boards. I've never seen such unahppy people. Is this was MT does to a person?
    You obviously didn't read the post carefully. Try again in a more sober frame of mind.
    It made sense to me.
    sorry, i didn't read your post before I posted mine...says the same thing, pretty much! :) nm

    Well of course we know that now. Back then we didn't because he didn't allow unfettered access.

    right we children didn't tattle to the administrator did we. BTW, didn't you think we were &#
    because some half-witted idiot said everyone was jealous because some other anonymous poster said they were going to be a doctor. Didn't they call it doctor envy. Oh yeah, that was all about you wasn't it busy-body MT. You with your degree and premed but yet you still post here and acuse others of jealously. I dunno but you and dano seem so close, I can't put my finger on it but I would say you could be computer clones. Jealous indeed. Children indeed. I think you are blowing your covers) dano and busy body MT. This whole "jealously" thing makes me think that you may be one and the same poster.
    I didn't go into labor until 2.5 weeks later, so it didn't work. Sorry!...nm

    not to mention
    Wages are going down and difficult dictators on the rise, bad quality on the rise.  Does anyone know of any other profession where the starting pay is as exactly as it was 10 years ago, maybe less?  I started out at 7 cpl and they are STILL offering that as starting pay today!!  Doing this 10+ years and every report that comes up is worse than the last.  Fight hand fatigue and pain as well.  Its very depressing, this business.
    Not to mention
    Destruction of the barrier islands that could have reduced the damage, the poorly maintained levies and all the national gaurd troops die for lies in Iraq instead of providing services to the States.
    I should also mention...
    that I didn't think women called OTHER WOMEN that! WOW
