I pose this question to companiesMTSOs.

I would like to know why companies/MTSOs don't hire QA people and pay a decent hourly wage and let them be the ones to plug in all these physicians' addresses for the reports. I, as a transcriptionist, spend precious transcription time hunting for names, some of which are impossible to understand, before sending it to QA (because, I'm sure that is what is expected of me). I really dislike having to send a report back without the name, but sometimes it's impossible. I have to search by how I think the name is spelled, or by the city (if given) the doctor is in and search through the whole city trying to find something that resembles this name. I even search by first names if I can't understand last name, and there is the issue of how the names are spelled.... some impossible! I know I could turn out many more lines for the company/MTSO if I were not having to look for these doctors addresses and a QA person paid an hourly rate wouldn't mind the searching. I guess the bottom line is the companies/MTSOs don't care if the Transcriptionist spends hours looking for these addresses because they aren't paying them for it anyway!  Someone tell me if I am wrong, please!

Remarry? I wouldn't even want to think about getting to the point of losing my husband, let alone wondering whether or not I would get married again.

And the answer is a big NO. NEVER.

I was married before, but that was different. I wanted to get remarried then because the man was an abusive anal retentive redneck idiot that I finally was smart enough to get the hell away from.

If my kind, loving, wonderful husband that has been the father to my children of the ever neglectful biodad redneck since they were small were to pass on, I wouldn't want money and I would never want another. You only find one soul mate.

I guess I got lucky.

If I croak first and he moves on, I'll never know, but I would never dream of asking him if he would do that. And if he asked me, I'd just have to smack him upside his head.
