Outrageous. I just forwarded to a local radio station in my area. Who else can we send this to?

Local radio station is giving away American Idol concer tickets. sm
They're running a contest for 2 free tickets. With the entry, you have to list what you would be willing to do in exchange for these tickets. The best/most original idea will win the tickets. Any suggestions? It has to be something the person would really be willing to do. I really want these tickets!! 
Who is Glenn Beck? nm

New Glenn Beck fan
My response to my senators letter:

This is an important issue. I am not against the best possible person getting the job - whatever the nationality etc. I understand that many of our researchers etc are non-American, BUT to go out of one's way to disqualify a qualified American applicant in order to hire a non-American is wrong. Education and experience are first - and I realize that it is up to each and every American to do what they need to get that - but when we have American businesses and lawyers working around the LAWS to disqualify Americans, it makes me ill.

As an independent Transcriptionist for medical and non-medical reports, it is hard enough fighting to keep our medical records safe from off-shore sources, our jobs available from off-shore sources, and our identities from off-shore sources - now to have to worry about my family's future because of possibly being disqualified in positions regardless of their education, etc. I have two sons who need to know they have a future working here in the USA.


This one should definitely go to Glenn Beck...
..
I LOVE GLENN BECK
It will be on again today - and if we are lucky a replay on the weekend. Time to take action people, it started, lets keep it going. I ams till sending this information out - the video has been pulled but thankfully I saved the text and can send the transcription - I love my job.


Transcripts from Glenn Beck
There is so much more than just the video of How not to Hire Americans - the first half of the show blew me away

Aired June 26, 2007 - 19:00:00 ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.


(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
GLENN BECK, HOST (voice-over): Tonight the immigration bill revived.

TONY SNOW, WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY: We`re certainly happy that the motion of proceeding is passed.

BECK: I`ll tell you what`s next for the bill that just will not die.

Plus, a traffic stop turns deadly. Reigniting the debate over gun control.

And Paris liberated yet again. She`s finally out of the slammer, but does this look like rehabilitation?

All this and more tonight.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

BECK: Hello, America.

Today Congress voted on whether or not to continue on that immigration reform bill, and here`s how it played out.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

REP. PETER HOEKSTRA (R), MICHIGAN: The conference voted this morning to proceed with debate on the Hoekstra resolution and not table it. If we would have tabled it, we would not have had any additional debate, and we would not have had the vote on the content of the resolution.

The conference clearly wants to have a discussion and a fair debate within the conference. They did want to have the vote.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BECK: These guys are amazing. In the words of today`s disaffected youth, whatever. This bill is like the terminator, man. It just won`t die.

Here`s the point tonight. It doesn`t matter which way this vote went down today, because Congress will find a way to get its provisions through by any means necessary, usually by inserting them into other bills that don`t have anything to do with immigration.

Sadly, that approach has become politics as usual. Remember the funding for the spinach growers that they -- they tried to shoehorn into the Iraq emergency funding bill?

Let me give you another example. How about one that has a little flavor of south of the border?

The Bush administration proceeded with a pilot program that would give Mexican trucking companies full access to all U.S. roads. Now, as it stands now, Mexican trucks can enter only at certain points along the U.S. border and can only hold goods about 70 miles into the United States.

Certain members of Congress and the Department of Transportation have a little problem with the all access plan of the White House. So what did the White House do? Did they seek a compromise or amend their plan? Of course not.

Instead they just got enough of their program included into the Iraq war supplemental spending bill that was signed into law just last month while all of us were paying attention to spinach.

Don`t let anybody tell you that this is just a past due piece of NAFTA. Nothing to worry about. Do you know who the first people were to buy trucking companies along the southern border once NAFTA went through to take advantage of this loophole? Drug cartels. Look it up.

Nice work, George.

So tonight here`s what you need to know. Politics is a sneaky little business played by sneaky little men who all -- all of the angles are all played and they`re all covered by these guys. Congress is a lot like "The Sopranos", except with worse dialogue.

Like the saying goes, if you like sausage and the law, you probably don`t want to watch either one of them being made.

Representative Ted Poe is a Republican from Texas. Congressman, I just can`t believe -- I can`t believe that the weasels in Congress suddenly find a spine on something everybody in the country is against.

REP. TED POE (R), TEXAS: It`s amazing. You are correct. You know, the will of the American people is against this amnesty bill, but, yet, it keeps resurrecting its ugly head. It`s called everything else but amnesty.

Most Americans are against it. Congress needs to get the point.

DOBBS: Yes. Well, they`re not...

POE: Leave it alone.

DOBBS: Congressman, you know it and I know it. They`re not going to get the point. It`s exactly like this trucking thing. This trucking thing is back for safety. It`s bad for our environment.

Are you kidding me? You`re going to have Mexican truckers, who may not even -- may not even be able to read road signs. God knows what they`ve put in the back of these trucks. Drug cartels own these trucking companies, and we`re just shoehorning this in, in the middle of the night?

POE: No question about it. The administration wants to move forward with it. The House has passed legislation. It hadn`t gone to the Senate yet. Stopping this until the Transportation Department answers some questions. That`s being ignored by the Transportation Department.

We`re concerned about safety. We`re concerned about the environment. And as you said, we`re concerned about drivers coming from Mexico that can`t even read a sign. And of course, this deal is not reciprocal.

In other words, American trucks won`t be allowed to go into Mexico. It`s a one-way deal for Mexico.

DOBBS: We`re getting -- I`m telling you, Congressman. We`re getting the shaft. I talked to -- on the radio program today, I talked to a woman who lives down in Texas. She said, "My land is about to be taken for this NAFTA super highway." I think there`s a two-year reprieve on this.

She said, "I could lose my land on this NAFTA super highway, and I can`t get anybody to even go on record about that."

What are they calling it now? They`re not calling it the NAFTA super highway. They`re calling it the corridor, the Texas Corridor Highway?

POE: The Texas corridor. That`s what it`s being called now.

DOBBS: Yes.

POE: But that`s what it is. It`s a big land grab by the federal government to have a highway all the way through the United States from Mexico to Canada, and then when you talk to the Transportation Department, they deny this thing ever exists.

DOBBS: You can find the plans on the internet. I mean, it`s amazing. How stupi* do they think we are? It doesn`t -- this doesn`t make sense to anyone in the country. Everybody is starting to ask questions.

Wait a minute. We can`t get these guys to pass common sense legislation. They don`t have a spine. They`re weasels and everything. And yet, all of a sudden they will not relent on this legislation when both Republicans, conservatives, liberals, and Democrats are all saying we don`t want this legislation. We know something is up.

POE: No question about it. This is bipartisan opposed to this super NAFTA highway. It`s going to be run by foreign governments. It`s going to be a toll road. Everything about it is bad for the American public.

Congress is really opposed to it, but, once again, it`s going to happen.

BECK: Congressman, thank you very much.

Buckle up, America. Here it comes.

If you think Congress is slippery at making the law, let`s shift gears here. Let`s look at the lawyers and the consultants who are even worse when it comes to skirting the laws that are already in place that nobody is enforcing.

Recently, a video appeared on YouTube -- oh, how did we survive without YouTube -- that shows a seminar being led by Cohen and Grigsby. This is a Pittsburgh law firm that offers counseling to businesses on how to avoid the messy practice of hiring American workers and rigging the system so they can hire cheaper immigrant labor. Watch this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Our goal here, of course, is to meet the requirements, No. 1, but, also, do so as inexpensively as possible, keeping in mind our goal.

And our goal is clearly not to find a qualified and interested U.S. worker. Our objective is to get this person a green card and to get through the labor certification process.

So certainly we are not going try to find the place where the applicants are going to be most numerous. We`re going to try to find a place where, again, we`re complying with the law and hoping, and likely, not to find qualified and interested worker applicants.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BECK: Where is the outrage, America? This is unbelievable. This is not a conspiracy. They`re out in the open.

Joining me now is Jack Shea, president of Allegheny County Labor Council.

Jack, first of all, these guys are not breaking the law. They`re absolutely within their right of everything that they said, right?

JACK SHEA, ALLEGHENY COUNTY LABOR COUNCIL, AFL-CIO: Well, they`re breaking the moral law. Let`s face it.

BECK: The spirit of the law.

SHEA: They`re disqualifying. That`s what they`re doing. Skilled workers to be able to find employment.

Now, let`s face it, the middle class has eroded. You know it, and I know it, and we have to -- all are struggling to try to maintain the middle class.

Now all of a sudden this thing shows up on YouTube, and guess what? This is their seventh annual immigration seminar.

And I just happen to wonder how many people, not only in Pittsburgh and other parts of this country, who were qualified to get good paying, skilled jobs were disqualified on account of all these maneuvers and all these -- and this is something the Department of Labor ought to look into.

Before any immigration bill or anything is passed, we got to find out.

DOBBS: I -- Jack, where are the -- where are the congressmen that used to stand up, I`m fighting so we`re not outsourcing? Let me tell you something, outsourcing jobs is a dream come true at this point.

At least the people in India are not also taking our services, Social Security and Medicare and Medicaid and our hospitals.

SHEA: Well, it seems to me that it`s got a little too expensive, maybe, for some of these corporations to ship our jobs overseas, so now what they want to do bring is cheap labor to America and get the work done as cheaply as possible.

Let`s not kid each other, OK? It`s this simple. If we all stand up and be against this stuff and don`t get the stuff investigated, it`s going to continue, and we`re not going to know about it.

I am just glad that whoever invented that small camera that nobody knows where it`s at can be anywhere, and they better watch themselves.

BECK: I`ve got to tell you, it`s my understanding that this company put this up themselves on the web site. This is not a hidden camera scenario. They filmed this thing. They`re not ashamed of this. This company, as far as I understand...

SHEA: Well, they took it off. Glenn -- Glenn, they took it off. They took it off, I understand.

BECK: Of course, they did.

SHEA: Because of the outrage. It`s not right. It`s not fair to the worker. And let`s face it, when we start losing three million manufacturing jobs in this country, now what we want to do is -- we want our folks -- we want our folks to just start over again. And we get them to get skilled work, and look what happens.

BECK: Well, I`ll tell you. One job many Americans seem like they don`t have a problem doing at all, and that`s screwing America over.

Jack, thanks a lot.

SHEA: OK, Glenn.

Nancy Grace and Glenn Beck got mine
I also sent to Hillary Clinton's site too.


The only radio station that plays the music you like is an

Call the news station in your location
who handles this sort of complaint. Once you contact the media, you will be paid immediately. Good Luck!!!
I just did my part - sent it to nearby news station.
.
Check your local police station, that'd be the place to look.
I bet they don't outsource that.....or do they? Interesting.
I emailed NBC nightly news. (sm)

Thanks for using nnbackchannel@nbcuni.com <mailto:nnbackchannel@nbcuni.com> to communicate directly with us at Nightly News.


I'll share your thoughts with Steve Capus and John Reiss. It may take a few days, but I will get back to you soon.
Steve, John, and I appreciate hearing from you.
Brian Williams


I sent this to all the local and some national talk radio stations. nm
xx
I agree, they just played it on our local radio here. Also, General Honore..sm
I heard him being interviewed by CNN today and boy is he The Man In Charge. The authority of this man outstanding, he got the troops, the supplies, the convoys in there. Finally we're getting somewhere. I thikn he's going to be the "Rudy" of this tragedy.
I'd ask the local authorities to tell the MTSO to stop sending THEM on a wild goose chase! NM

I heard it on local news....sm
but assumed it would be something most local news stations would carry...if I heard it correctly. I use mine as a credit all the time too.
I agree. Take none of this. Let their behavior be known and even if necessary call the local News
many TV stations have to help. There was a service in our city who never paid her people and the local news On Your Side was contacted and not only was she on the news for not paying but she was also picked up by the police. There is usually at TV station in every major area (even if they are not in a major area, will go to the local surrounding areas) to help folks with problems such as this. Take it to whoever you can. People like this do not respect you.

I never understood why people continue to work for people that are even one day late. Pay should be on time. If it isn't, the MTSO would never get an ounce more of work out of me and believe me he/she WOULD pay me! I am not one to let it go. I too have worked in the legal field and I do know how to proceed.

Just don't give them one more day of your time.
Go to NBC10.com - Our local news has "Wednesday's Child" which is a child for adoption.
Every Wednesday they introduce a child who needs a home and a family. There should be some information there as these kids are up for adoption.

Hope that helps!
LOL, I sent to Beck too, sounds like a lot of people did. nm

How do I contact Glen Beck my
husband listens to him all the time and suggested I email him with this mess. He just loves the guy.
Buy local. The local stores pay taxes to support your city and state. (SM)
Using online and catalogues does nothing to promote the local economy.  We complain about outsourcing and about the big companies gobbling up all the work so the jobs at local hospitals are gone, yet we do the same thing when we buy on ebay, catalog, and these web sites that may be located any place in the world as their primary business location. 
Glen Beck right now: How not to hire Americans video!!!

just checked i-mail. no news. how did you get your news?
love,

News flash..Don't know where you get your news, but the economy is doing very well.

My theory is no news is good news. (sm)
If there is really a problem with your transcription, then I would not worry about it. They will get to you if you screw up.

As far as policies and procedures, look in your manual. I am sure they gave you info for all of that stuff. JMO.
Remember John Beck? (the guy who used to play "Mark Graison" on "Dallas").


I went local. Great local tech support, they know what I do and were able to set it up just for me
:)
ARGH.. Have you gone to the gas station lately
or to the grocery store. Do you have a clue what your utilities are going to be this coming winter and WORK FOR LESS. YOU ARE BONKERS
It's slow everywhere right now. But, we have to man the station.

Lanier station
not sure where to post this, but I have a complete Lanier 219 station that I am going to sell.  Any offers will be considered. 
Went to the Prometric Testing Station

I took my CMT exam yesterday. It took almost 4 hours and was one of the hardest tests I've ever taken. The test gets all done and it just says that you've "passed" and will be getting your certificate and pin "in the mail." Couldn't they  have the screen show a display of fireworks or flash "CMT, CMT...." at you.


And I really want to know what I scored. I know they can't give me the answers to particular questions because other people will be taking the test, but at least give me a number so I know if I'm really good or just okay. I'm obsessive that way I guess. I've been looking up everything I was unsure of, and I've only found one question I missed for sure, but I know there are stupid mistakes. And I know I'll be waking up at night in a cold sweat remembering something else I need to look up. Okay, I've finally gone nuts. 


Lanier Remote Station
Can anyone send me instructions on how to program an older Lanier remote transcription system? I think it is an LX-128? I just don't remember. I took my out of the closet to see if it works and have lost my instructions. Everything is all plugged in and works. HOwever, I get a double tone and not a dial tone. I remember having to program it but it has been sooooooo long ago. Any help would be appreciated.

Philips Transcription Station and Vonage
Years ago, I used a Philips Digital Transcription Station to get my MT work.  It would plug into my landline jack and then I could dial in to get the jobs to transcribe.   This week, the machine has returned since I am trying to help out someone with their work.  Unfortunately, I no longer have a landline.  I switched to Vonage over the summer.  When I try to connect, it dials the phone number, I hear the computer voice that tells me to enter my ID # and then when I do that it is supposed to validate my number and show me the available jobs.  It starts the validating process but then times out and hangs me up.  Has anyone had problems like this and if so have you been able to fix it.....help please!!!
Lanier station with Comcast Digital
I have used this for quite some time with no problems. I have also used a C-phone and Voice Solutions Digital Workstation with Comcast and it works just fine. The only thing you may have a problem with is having dictation cut out periodically or what sounds like "choppy" dictation (and this occurs VERY rarely) and all you have to do is disconnect the phone lines and power from the back of the device you are using, wait a few minutes and plug back in and it should work. Other than that, NO problems!
Voice Solutions DA-128 transcribe station help
Anyone know how to set the M1, M2, and M3 phone number memory buttons on this?  Thanks!
Lanier station w/Comcast digital voice

Will this work?  A couple of years ago I tried a Lanier with Vonage and it didn't.  I don't want to go through the setup trouble only to be disappointed again.  I really need more minutes than my 5000 per month with Qwest.  Has the technology changed to make the Lanier compatible with internet phone service?  Thanks if you can help me.


I have good news and bad news 4U...
The good news is on Saturday, July 1 many of your least favorite residents will be "graduating." The bad news is that on the same day you'll be getting a virtual box of candy with brand new residents who have no clue how to dictate! RU excited?? ARGHHHH!!!!
Need Lanier ExWriter to test. Will VDI station or C-phone work or can I rerecord?

I am unfamiliar with the Lanier ExWriter. Can somebody please fill me in? I have a C-phone, VDI station, a call-in system with L.E.E.C.H. capabilities that can download work onto my system from another, or rerecord equipment. Can you access files from call-in systems like you can with a regular telephone and C-phone? How is the sound quality? I am not to thrilled with the .dss or WAV files.


Thanks!


I have used a Digital Transcribe Station from Transcription Gear in lieu of a C phone just fine nm

Sending ES?

I have .DSS files being sent to me via email.  If I want to send them to another person's computer so that when I go there I can pull it up and transcribe from their house - is this a possibility?  I can't seem to get ES to forward the actual .DSS file.  I am so confused.


What has that got to do with sending
the work there.  What about 911?  That was a much, much, much larger scale event.  Besides it seems like the target were American and British tourists.
