I don't recall mentioning couches or TV-watching! Net-surfing is okay if one can't sleep, bu

Posted By: Blu State on 2006-06-23
In Reply to: I'm not in the Bible Belt, o judgmental one, unless you don't know geography either. Another r - Roll over on the couch and check out COLLEGE on Go

most of the "fun" time I'm talking about is traveling to other countries, mountain biking, surfing, figure skating, skiing, and running, in addition to community events, reading, painting and drawing (some work was published), music, swimming, writing and sewing, just to mention a few.

By this defination, just mentioning company
x
Not mentioning an account is just common sense and I would not

hire her if I was in that position and would fire her if she was already hired.  If she sees nothing wrong when mentioning what accounts a company has then that is a HUGE problem.  It doesn't matter if nothing negative was said, if account specifics weren't mentioned, it is just COMMON SENSE and an unwritten rule that you don't tell what accounts a certain company has. 


We're not mentioning gifts in the invitations...sm
but are trying to figure out how to handle it when people call/e-mail/write and ask about gifts and do so tactfully, even when we say "no gifts preferred."
If I work when the kids sleep, when will I sleep?

I understand what you are saying about the kids will always bug me no matter what.  I just thought that if I had a job where I didn't have to hear dictation and type word for word that maybe it might be easier to block out the kids.  There are no babysitters to watch the kids around here, besides that is why I work at in home in the first place.  The kids are 2 and 5 so hopefully it will get easier.


Thanks


I find that surfing the net is an absolute no-no

when I have a bunch of work to do at night.  I try to get up and walk through the house, do a simple chore, get something to drink even if just water, helps me.  If I find myself actually falling asleep while typing it is definitely time for bed because then I have to relisten to my entire dictation to make sure it is good.  My DH is always telling me to go to bed at a decent time and get up early and I'll be more productive, which is really true if you are that tired.  With my work if I'm not out of TAT, I pick the easy/short jobs first and leave the longer/more difficult ones until I've had some rest.   While I may still have lots of minutes left, I don't have as many reports and I feel that I have accomplished something.

I don't recall

a step between MRC and TL, but then I may be blocking the whole unpleasant next eight years.  It just got worse and worse and the final straw was Philips and being forced to become an employee, with a simply horrid manager. 


When I started with MRC I worked in the office, which was about 4 miles 1-way from home and I either biked or walked.  I was pretty fit that couple of years.  TL moved the operation to swankier offices several miles farther away and across a major highway, thus putting an end to my bicycling.  I tried to work in the TL office, but they were just way too starchy and corporate for most of us MC people (no denim, no tennis shoes, no talking, blah, bhal, blah).  I remember a welcoming speech given by their office manager to all us boat people they had just acquired.  She spoke with her hands so much (a sort of Babs Streisand affectation - two-inch acrylic nails and all) that I could hardly keep from laughing.  Shortly after that I went home to work. 


I do miss knowing the people I work with and for.  TL had an online company bulletin board but it was pointed out that this was for chat, but for official use only.  MQ had that horrible e-mail system where you had to check daily for bulletins.  Trouble was, I would have to spend 20 minutes a day sorting through all their self-promotional garbage to get to anything that actually pertained to me. 


What a walk down memory lane!


 


 


I don't recall asking for advice (more)
and I don't really need a lecture from you about my finances. You assumptions about my situation could not be farther from the truth.

I'm not going to defend myself or make corrections to your incorrect assumptions. You seem to be very happy on your pedestal and God forbid anyone should choose to do things in a way that displeases you. I think it's pretty funny that you would get "burned up" by something that an anonymous person posted on the Internet.

I'm glad for you that you have nothing but luck going for you. Maybe you'll get to buy my car when I'm done with it!
There is one on MTChat, but I don't recall her name. nm

Diamond Pet Food Recall sm
check out their website if you use this brand.  dog and cat food recalled.  Dozens of dogs have died, others ill. 
I'm confused....I don't recall ever subscribing to
anything. Do you get emails? You posted your own resume, and you can delete and modify that on your own so I'm guessing it's something different. Why didn't I ever have to sign up for anything?
Cannot recall password for Windows :(

PC crashed so I pulled out the old PC from years ago.  But, I cannot recall my password.  Can I get around this somehow?  I am lost without my puter :(. 


Thanks!


As I recall, ONLY after you've been there for a set length of time.

Yes. But per Vera, that's wrong, if I recall correctly. SM
There are apparently about 10 zillion people who think that if you use a slang spelling or term long enough, you legitimize it. Sigh. There's no reason for that to ever be one word until such time it's marketed under that brand name. You can find LOTS of stuff on Google, and if there were 10,000 people who misspelled a term, there would be 10,000 hits on it -- and it would still be misspelled.
I only have single coverage with them. but as I recall from the literature it was about
$500 a month or so, maybe a little less. Give them a call or e-mail and I am sure they will tell you.
If I recall, you should be able to pull up all the supporting documents sm
to review, not just the summary page.  I always back it up by doing the old pencil, paper, calculator method just to be sure.
I don't recall saying I 'don't research' blanks.
is exactly what this portion of this thread is about. I never leave a blank until all avenues of finding the answer have been exhausted, which includes leaving a blank and continuing on with the report, as sometimes the answer can be found further down in the same report.

And here's another problem: sometimes the answer to the blank presents itself in the next report, or several reports down the line. By then the 'offending' report with said blank in it has already been sent and cannot be retrieved. If already-type reports could be retrieved and fixed by the original person that typed them a few minutes to an hour later, it would save a tremendous amount of time for all concerned: MTs, QAs, and the doctor waiting for the report that is languishing in a QA backlog.
Probably 2 weeks and if i recall it will be on a Friday for Federal.

She has explained it before - lots of expanders if I recall correctly.
I believe it - I to make great line counts in a few hours, but have to work in 2-3 hour periods, take a break, and go back later for 2-3 more hours.

If I sit here all day, I am not productive. It works for me.
If I recall, there used to be a Short Form Schedule C you could file sm
if you grossed less than $2500.
I've always liked Doug, my husband looks similar; I don't recall whom I saw/liked first though

Yes, it should. As I recall, Express Scribe plays .dss files..sm
and that's what Olympus files usually are, but you can double check because some Olympus players also use .WMA files, I believe. Express Scribe plays nearly any file, but it should list on download website what all it will play.
No specific one that I can recall. Sorry. But I was running Google searches on the person,
and the same company kept popping up "run search online" everywhere! They had several options - $9.95 or $19.95 or a super-duper $49.95 one.  I went with the cheapest one, and even that was worth it. Though the $49.95 would surely be tempting....
Bausch & Lomb ReNu recall - fungal eye infections

After watching this
I'd have to say I now know why I had no idea this was going on.  If more people knew about this, how their meat was being "harvested" and what they do to these animals, they wouldn't be in existance at all and thats what they are afraid of.  These images should be shown to schools all over the U.S. to teach at a young impressionable age that this is what is going on and it needs to change.  I myself know that I need meat in my diet, we all need it, I don't eat a lot of it because too much can be bad for you, but how am I going to eat after watching this??  It sickens and hurts me and I can't believe people can work a full day treating a living thing like this.  Imagine their lives, born into complete suffering and agony, you can HEAR it.  I'm just completely blown away.  There is a better way to do this.  Why are they being hurt alive?  We have enough technology to take away their pain at the very least not to mention the living conditions.  I'm completely hurt and I think more people should be.
watching less and less
Seems like half of the year is reruns and alot cable stations are reruns from regular tv. Getting sick of the same shows day after. Cut it off for awhile see how you like it.
Okay, I'm watching CNN now and (sm)
They are showing the expressway where people are trying to evacuate... total gridlock. It's like a 6 to 8-lane interstate, but they don't have the other direction open... what I'm trying to say is they can open up the other side to let more people evacuate, even though they would be going down the highway in the wrong direction. No one is even on the other side..

All these poor people in their cars, just moving like turtle and this thing is coming... I just don't get it.
you must not have been watching the same...sm

YOU must not have been watching the same show and even today - they showed clips all over the TV and HIS BICEPS AND TRICEPS are in TREMENDOUS GOOD SHAPE for anybody 62.....


Obviously your upper arms are batwings.......if you think his upper arms were in bad shape.  You should only look so good in the upper arm area.......


Have you tried watching
Desperate Housewives or Greys Anatomy? I think they're both entertaining shows, although Desperate Housewives was better last year.
If you like watching
made for TV movies, try the Lifetime channel. Once in a while I can find a good movie there. Good luck
still watching ER
It is not quite as good as it once was but still head and shoulders above much of the other stuff on TV. I still watch and like the newer characters. Neila is interesting right now as is the situation with Kovac and Abby.
When you are watching something like CNN
when there is a big news story (like the miners in WV) and you're hearing this stuff supposedly live and then you hear someone like Wolff Blitzer repeat the information and say something totally different than what someone said just 3 minutes ago.   Not the same subject, but it also drives me totally insane when they ask someone who has lost a loved one in a horrific manner - how do you feel.  HOW DO YOU THINK THEY FEEL?  And why do they feel like they need to get up in the face of someone who is burying a loved one - is nothing sacred anymore. 
Yes, I have been watching
It's keeping my interest enough to keep watching and actually it better than I thought it would be.  
I'm watching sm
Although I missed the last episode. I'll catch it next week before the next episode hopefully. Don't know who will win.
I'm watching.
It's nice that you can see one episode right after the other. So easy to get involved that way. I wanted to see more of Tym's work also, but I think David is going to win. Alice is the brunette, right? I'm glad the young blond got kicked off. She was dizzy if you ask me!
So very sad watching this
Sitting here watching Animal Channel and the tribute to Steve Irwin. My heart is still crying. His wife, Terri, looks so grief stricken. What a loss.
Thanks. Now I can sleep better.

Sad day, my mom had to put her little pom to sleep.

no sleep !
What's up with this insomnia?  Mine started year before last when my brother was very ill.  He passed away a few months later, and ever since, I have been depending on Ambien (which is NOT a good thing!).   A few weeks ago I went to Tylenol P.M. and it does help and does not give me any side effects, about 5 hours of good sleep.  Sometimes I think I transcribe in my sleep!   Don't know what's up but my daughter is encouraging Valerian; after reading these posts about it too, I am giving it a try! 
NO SLEEP
I used to use Ambien for years and it worked great, except that about 15 minutes after I took it I would begin hallucinating, calling people and telling them all sorts of things - some pretty good stories came out of my Ambien days. I would see things that weren't there and one time I saw 8 of my husband (wish there were 7 more of him - I would auction him off on ebay - He's a keeper - and then never work again for all the money I would make). I now take Wal-Som which is Walmart's sleep aid medication - it is not Benadryl, though, it is doxylamine succinate. It is about $4.00 for 24 pills (a lot cheaper than Ambien).

good luck - I can remember those days of racing thoughts - do you have an anxiety disorder? I did.
Job B. I could do in my sleep

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.
But maybe she does not like watching MTs look stupid
ranting about something that isn't even true? I know I don't.
Well, I cried while watching them all

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.
