    How about an 86-year-old woman with
    descended testes bilaterally?  Gotta love it when the docs fall asleep during dictation. 
    My post was referring to a patient who does not
    speak English, not the doctor. It is not the doctor's fault he cannot communicate with a non-English speaking patient.
    Sorry, again half my post is missing. Should say how do I delete the date and patient name so it st

    Thanks. 


    Therapy for what? Because I don't support any woman who spouts an idea because she is a woman?

    And you fall into the "therapy" or drug routine?  Why not address the issues.  You want women to support women no matter how ridiculous the idea is or you want to support a truth, no matter who tells it.  The rest of the "therapy" crap you post is BS.  You must know that by now.


    Sorry, that is not uncommon at this time of year. Post SM
    office employees get greedy.
    Thanks for this post. Glad that you are doing well, and hopefully the next year will treat you even
    better.  Blessings!
    Fine. Be sure to post back here in a year and tell me about her at-home job. nm

    A couple of times a year the suits post as
    an MT.  I used to work for SS and they were so bad that I can't imagine them fixing all the problems in my lifetime. 
    Times change..including this policy about who is able to post. About a year ago,
    this board started letting everyone post job openings, at least to what I can remember. I know at one point if they were India-based/affiliated etc..then they could not advertise but since anymore it is so rampant with companies being associated with India, they started letting them post. I could be wrong but this is what I recall.
    Amen.... Gravity is definitely working on my 45-year-old, post breastfeeding mammaries.

    Putting patient versus The patient (sm)
    When did this "rule" come about? I've been an MT/Editor/medeical records tech/ART for 30 years - Never, ever was I told to put that. You cannot make the sentence be "The patient sent to Radiology" but you can put "Patient sent to Radiology."

    Thats just insane.
    Mine are in year-round thank goodness! They've started their new year 2 months ago.

    Union diesil mechanic - good pay, great benefits. We swap year to year on who brings home more sm
    money.....but I am an IC and he has all the benefits...health insurance/dental that the company pays for, pension plan, 401k, etc.  Factor all of that in and he makes way more than I do.

    After I went to a 1-year MT course at a vocational school, it was so bad that I did the 2-year colle
    Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
    maybe she wants to be the woman.

    Seems to me, this is about those woman who only think they look like that...
    and unfortunately do not.

    Even young girls do this - I have seen young girls more and more, bellies out, cracks out (pardon me, do not know what else to call it- smile), and maybe 2 out of 10 have the bodies for it. The rest are overweight and have bulges and cellulite, etc.

    I think almost everyone would agree, if a woman can wear something (or nearly nothing) and look good, more power to them. If they do not have a body like a model, or even close, best to hide the cleavage in public, in my opinion...
    Done 2! Come on MTs....help this woman win!
    Staples inventors contest. Vote for Julie Savage.
    Can't we get this woman out of here?
    I would sooner see your Avon and candles! This woman has been over on MT Chat, now here, who knows where else. I don't even believe she is an MT. How could she be when she is so busy with her "company"? Can't we get these types of "free advertisers" off here? Makes me mad!  If fshe is free to advertise, then I think the rest of us should be able to, as well!
    Yep, that's right, it was to a woman.nm

    One woman actually said she (sm)
    spent so much time at the pediatrician's office, she KNEW she could do it.  NO KIDDING.  She really said that.
    She is more woman than you could ever-sm
    hope to be in your wildest dreams. What did she ever do to you anyway? come on, take my one on one challenge...make my day. lol
    Probably every woman on here has done the same or more
    than this person is saying she had to do in order to take care of grandchildren. Most women here work and take care of children every day. She asked did I have grandchildren like you just could not work and take care of them. I did - others have here also- no bashing- just truthful, sounds like a cop out to me and probably others here.
    Seems that woman
    had some issues. Okay ... I can see being a little irritated, but really! Your director had the right attitude, and now you have your funny little story you can share. : )
    No woman asks for it EVER
    A woman can be walking down the street naked, she is not asking for rape.  No woman ever wants to be raped.  Old ladies, young ladies, middle aged ladies get attacked and raped and sexually harrassed and murdered.  Women do not ask for this.  Until we put the blame where it belongs, on the perpetrator, not the victim, nothing will change.  You need some consciousness raising, me thinks.
    A woman I worked with ... (sm please)
    erased a tape of a day's worth of radiology reports. She pulled all the jackets (before PACS system) and took them to the rad. She apologized sincerely with a stiff upper lip. He did not say a word, read all the films again and life went on. She is now the lead MT and has been there for 15 yrs.
    You really need to get a woman in your life!

    And what do you consider an older woman?

    I can assure you that I'm not an older woman.  Thirty is not old.  I still get carded buying alcohol.  I've never bleached my naturally blonde hair either.  The clothes aren't skimpy.  I have full coverage with nothing hanging out.  I certainly don't shop in the plus or women sized departments either.  It's just a change from slob mode, which is the point I was trying to make.  Women will feel and look younger by taking a few moments to care about their appearance.  Try some trendier clothes, a new hairstyle, a touch of makeup.  Besides, if I was a fat, ugly, old lady as you're implying, troll, hubby would tell me.  He's the one who didn't like my "comfortable" work clothes to begin with.


    omg i know a woman who talks just like you
    and is just as much an a** and even her sunday school class doesn't want anything to do with her!!! hehehehehe talking about an ugly, stinky attitude!!! hehehe
    psycho woman
    You sound like a nice woman that just has lousy tastes in men. First of all, you need to get involved in a church. If you have a large one in your area, they typically have groups of people that are in your same boat or had been in a similar boat. Go there first, and seek their advice. and it would be very good for the kids to attend also.
    No. Owned by a woman.

    woman of the opposite sex
    That's hilarious! Thanks for the belly laugh. I needed it today.... LOL.
    I had to reply here to what the woman said
    That the radiologist would call the physician by phone and report the serious finding on the x-ray. HELLO: Most (or all) patient charts have an order to them in which patient medical records are to be distributed chronologicaly. I would think Medical Records Manager/personnel would be screaming for the hard copy of the report to be placed on the chart, to be reviewed by QA, Coding, etc. This woman sounds lazy.

    Q: How many women with MENOPAUSE does it take to

    change a light bulb?



    A: One! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY?

    Because no one else in this house knows

    HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know

    that the bulb is BURNED OUT!! They would sit

    in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out.

    And, once they figured it out,

    they wouldn't be able to find the

    light bulbs despite the fact that

    they've been in the SAME CUPBOARD

    for the past 17 YEARS!

    But if they did, by some

    miracle of God, actually find

    them 2 DAYS LATER, the chair

    they dragged to stand on to

    change the STUPID light bulb would
    STILL BE IN

    THE SAME SPOT!!!!!

    AND UNDERNEATH

    IT WOULD BE THE

    WRAPPER THE

    STUPID LIGHT

    BULBS CAME IN!!!

    BECAUSE NO ONE

    EVER CARRIES OUT

    THE GARBAGE!!!!

    IT'S A WONDER WE

    HAVEN'T ALL

    SUFFOCATED FROM

    THE PILES OF

    GARBAGE THAT

    ARE A FOOT DEEP

    THROUGHOUT THE

    ENTIRE HOUSE!!

    IT WOULD TAKE

    AN ARMY TO

    CLEAN THIS 

    HOUSE!

    I'm sorry.... What was the question?


    Oh woman...lighten up .sm

    ... and get a sense of humor!  This board could use more giggles and less crabs.


      


    Woman's best friend .....
     
    I knew a woman...

    who had 2 back-to-back MT jobs going from one hospital to another.  She usually looked half dead by the time I saw her at her 2nd job, but was getting paid hourly, so I doubt she was too productive at job #2.  Somehow she managed to show up every day though. 


    What a great woman she was!!!......R.I.P......nm

    The one, the only, the woman who has done SO MUCH FOR AMERICA!!!!!

    HILL-OH-REE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    My Mom, who was a very wise woman, would tell you...
    to love her anyway just the way she is and realize that "everyone is doing the best they can with what they have to work with."  Plus, life's 2 short and life is fragile.
    Try to find a woman.
    I think that male internists and specialists fail to see the specifics of women's problems and cannot relate to their point of view and/or suffering.  This work is so very stressful on bones and joints and with a lack of exercise and usually poor nutrition because we are at this computer so long daily .. we are killing ourselves slowly but deliberately .. find a woman to see if you can and better still a situation where there are students who will also work with you .. they take the time and while it might drive you a little nuts, their attendings are usually very quality driven.
    and you are super woman
    if you can work only 3 days a week and make that kind of lines/money, then by all means...do tell????? how do you do it?????? I am sure 100's of transcriptionists are waiting to hear this one! Let's see, you must be super woman, the fastest typist on the earth.
    TP is an elderly 62 you woman. LOL

    There's a woman who offered to help me

    and she works for Escription.  She said IT DEFINITELY works with EditScript v8 (but I don't know about previous versions).  She offered to get me up and runnign after the place I was working for said it wasn't compatible, but I left so never bothered to figure out.  Sorry I'm not more helpful, but at least you know it should work!


    Should just post all their open positions in one post and only be allowed to post one of those a day

    I think he makes $700,000.00 a year, and if they ask him to walk before his first year MQ has...sm

    to pay him a cool 1 million dollars.  You can check this out at the Medquist website.   I think the CFO makes $350,000 a year, and the head of IT makes $250.000 a year.


    P.S.  This does not include the perks, like expense account, car allowance, sign-on bonus, etc. 


    Our 16 year old son has been working for a year now to pay for his truck.
    He's learning how to sand and do body work and how the engine and transmission go together. My parents didn't buy cars for my siblings and I either. I had a 20+ year old beater car until I could afford to move up to a a newer one.

    I see all the nice new cars parked in the high school parking lot every day. It's nice that so many disrespectful punk kids get handed something nicer to drive than what all the teachers drive. Oh, well. Honestly, I think most of them borrow Mommy or Daddy's car or are the child of a doctor who can afford to hand them everything.

    Hopefully, my kids will take better care of their cars because they bought and built them on their own. You're not going to grow up to be responsible if you don't work hard for something and expect Mommy and Daddy to bail you out all the time.

    Oh, my Dad lectured us on even allowing our child to have a vehicle because Dad didn't have one until after he had worked his way through college, lettered on the football team, got straight As, lettered on the baseball team, yadda yadda. He either walked or hitched a ride. Yeah, well, times were different back then, Daddy-O. LOL At least my kid has the opportunity to work and earn his own car.
