I need help from savvy MT's

I am so so upset.  I have been working really hard at a job for over 2 months.  I am a QA editor.  Yesterday I was told in a tricky way that I would be making $15 less per day.  They tried to cover it up by saying I would be making MORE money because they are giving me more money.  I am so P'OD that I want to quit but I can't.  They said that I am FAST and so it should be no problem for me to make up the money.


I pointed out that I am actually getting a pay cut and the woman said she is very sorry but the decision came from "upper management."  It is a small company and I think she is part of the upper management.  HELP ME ... last night I drank wine and just went to bed crying.  I work so hard!

Computer savvy
Nope, I'm not computer savvy.  I told this to J when he first set me up, told him I was computer illiterate.  When he was finished he told me that I wasn't as "illiterate" as I thought I was.  And all I did was follow his directions.  No problems.   Do you think MAYBE it might present a problem when someone who is computer savvy, instead of just rolling with the flow, MIGHT irritate him by interfering with him doing his job?  I would surely be irritated if the tech started questioning my command of the medical language.   I should hope that any tech working for any company would know more than anyone else about their system.  We aren't paid to know computers, we're paid to know medical terminology.  Techs don't have to know medical terminology but they DO have to know computers.
For the computer/printer savvy!

If you can solve this problem - you are really good!!  Here it is - The office I work for has just changed the margins and the bottom margin is now 0.3.  However, everytime that I change the margin, the computer automatically bumps it up to 0.46.


The computer savvy person in the home office believes that it has something to do with a preset margin minimum in the printer which will not allow it to accept the margin.  The computer tech where I bought the computer believes that also.  BUT - no one knows how to go about changing that. 


My printer is an HP PSC 2210 all-in-one.   Calling HP is not an option since the printer is possibly 4 to 5 years old and out of warranty so therefore the charge for their advice is not worth it!!


Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions??  So far, this has stumped everyone!  Thanks in advance.

No offense, but I hardly doubt kids 6, 8, and 9 in a real emergency would be savvy enough to handle
their cell phones properly while some creep is carrying them away.  And they're away from you with cell phones at that young age?? Oh my! Please reconsider. Perhaps you're feeling false security from a cell phone. 
Easy backup file transfer alternative for non-tech-savvy client
Hello all,

I have a new client who is not tech-savvy at all. She lost her Transcriptionist and transcriptions are backing up. She is so desperate she is willing to try digital with me. (yay) I hope everything with the FTP setup goes easily for her, but if for some unforseeable reason we cannot get it to work, I was wondering if someone here could recommend an easy alternative, if only to get the first few dictations to me while we work out the FTP. She is incredibly frustrated and on edge at the moment, so anything to ease this transition would be a lifesaver!

Thank you all so much for your help!
