the name for it is not incompetent, but
LAZY! Too lazy to check in the office when they can pass the buck and let you deal with it. I had a small contract with a company for several years that was like that. I'd send my work in as soon as it was finished. They were constantly requesting the same reports I'd already sent in--sometimes 3 and 4 times. I finally quit that. Too much wasted time searching for things when I had already done my part. Such a hassle. You have my sympathy.
incompetent facility
Your story sounds like something from a small town (or small office). That many radiology reports withheld from being distributed, you know some of them had remarkable findings such as a chest x-ray that needed a follow-up MRI, CT scan, etc. I hope this girl gets terminated soon enough and out of there. Otherwise, the radiologists themselves will be paying the price and hence it would be followed through to the administrative office/CEO office of the medical center/hospital.
incompetent offices
Geez Mandy, you must work for the same place I did before I left LOL.
About incompetent physicians...
Yes, they are definitely out there and getting scarrier day by day. Actually, the great majority of them are quite pathetic.
Mine is totally incompetent as well as liar.

So tired of dealing with incompetent offices...

they just emailed me for the upteenth time for a stat report that I already sent to them 40 minutes ago.  Wouldn't you think they'd check to see if they had it first!?!  Constantly emailing me questioning what they've sent me and when.  Why can't she keep logs like I do!?!  Doesn't take a rocket scientist!  Can't remember from day to day to send me patient lists.  Don't know what the heck she does with incomplete reports I've sent because doc doesn't give a name of messes up his dictation and cuts half of it off.  I'll get a call a couple of weeks later saying doc insists he dictated on so and so, but they never got the report.  I'm the one who has to go back and search for the nameless reports and match up the the patient they're missing with diagnoses, age etc., then tell her that's the one I sent you on that date that was incomplete.  Why can't she figure that out!!!  If I functioned like they do, I wouldn't last a week!  Sorry, had to vent.....


Someone at the office sounds incompetent. Don't let them toss
this one on you.  Simple solution:  Have the office manager, or an assigned employee, review the list at day's end daily, or at the beginning of the next day if the physician is still transcribing after office hours have ended.  Have the physician stack the dictated charts in a designated place each day, and do a comparison check against the list.  That is in no way your responsibility.....just another lagger trying to assign work to someone other than themself.
Okay so I spelled incompetent wrong. Sue me! Not working now! nm

You can tell him a few things.


1. When God passed out the humility, he sure passed you by.  (He sure is humble, isn't he?)


2. You should only talk to people about your religion if you are asked.


3. And God sent you here today to judge me.


4. Is that all your church does it collect money and tell you to judge people?

I can't stand it any more! :)

I have sat here in my little chair and quietly typed all day without a peep of protest.  The sun is shining, the birds are singing, I can hear the river tide, and....and....and......I have to get outta here!  Just for a few minutes, I'm going to go dip my toes, catch a couple rays of sunshine, and watch the kids play.  Actually, I think I'm going to play with them!


Come on, guys, let's go play!

Try a lap stand.
I have an adjustable plastic lap stand made by Targus that I use. It keeps the laptop from burning in thighs and allows the air to circulate underneath the laptop to keep it cool. I think I bought it at Office Max.
BOS - what does this stand for
been seeing it for months and i have no clue what u are referring to.

We need to stand up for ourselves
because we keep making less money. But how do we do that?
I stand my ground. sm
There are too many other jobs out there to stay you are stuck in this one. I do dare to say this because I know this.

Think about it. Would you stay in a "crappy" marriage because there are no other guys out there? Gimme a break.

But, hey, if I'm over the line (as you said), that's cool. Not like I've never been there before.

I will say this, however. I like my job. Not LOVE, but like. That's the reason I do it. If I did not, I'd get out. Period.
I stand corrected........................ think
maybe that's one of the AAMT adjustments?

but what does MTSO stand for?

I stand behind my statement and there has been

documentation to support it, but this is a free country and I certainly won't condemn anyone for being a member, I just never would and would never recommend it. 


I don't advocate any curriculum - I detest Abeka, but the websites I have given are a good place to start for anyone who is just feeling things out.  They can ask any questions and get feedback from multiple people, explore various curriculums, buy new or used, find others in their community who homeschool, find support groups, etc.   Rainbow Resource has just about everything ever created as far as curriculum, including what is commonly called boxed curriculum like Abeka or BJU where you buy every subject and the TMs, but also allows you to pick and choose.  I personally write my own curriculum now, but I used various curriculums and various modalities of homeschooling over the years.  There are many different forms of homeschooling too, from a principal approach to the unschooling approach and many others in between.   No one curriculum or modality works for everyone and one of the many joys of homeschooling is having the freedom to use whatever works best for your family.


I am not a secular homeschooler, but there are those that are and I would want them to be able to get the support they need and not feel isolated because they don't share the same belief system that I do.  


 


I couldn't stand it with a

I had a good deal too, free rent, worked at home, vacations to where ever and whenever I wanted, limos and NYC every weekend, could pack up and go back to work at my mom's for 1 or 2 months at a time for my "family" fix.  I just couldn't keep doing it.  I packed up, came home and last week my GD turned as she walked from my front door to look at me and say, "Bye, Nammy!  I Love You!"  I got a better deal after all


what does SM stand for that I see here all the time?

Heck I am an IC and can't stand it

I was told when considering the position that they wanted someone who could work at least 30 but closer to 40 hours since they had a lot of work.  I thought about it, and decided to do it, and placed my 2 little ones in daycare.  I have since adjusted my schedule so that one is in only 2 days per wk, and the other goes 5 days but abbreviated hours -but, I still have to pay the weekly rate plus the full day drop in rate for the other one. Not a problem if there is a lot of work.


About a month ago, it slowed down and we were told that it would pick up soon, as one MT was leaving and we were getting a new account.  I feel like we are fighting each other for scraps, as the volume has not increased and all of the new hires (I was the first in a hiring wave) are picking up speed as they get better on the accounts.  I can see from the company's standpoint where it is better to have MTs running out of work than to be behind on TAT, but its a balance, because some people are willing to walk away from a job if lack of work goes on long enough.


I honestly would prefer fewer hours and if I were not paying for daycare, I would be happy to cut back, but I just know if I pull my kids out, the long awaited glut of work will finally arrive and I will have to pull all nighters.  I AM getting ready to do this anyway.  The extra money helps us out, but mostly it is going into savings. 


It has to totally suck to be an employee and be required to sit there.  I at least can get tired of checking for work that is not there and decide to go run errands.  Even as a waitress, I got minimum wage if I had no sales for my shift, and the managers were wise enough to cut some people free for the night if business was slow. 


Good luck to you in your situation. 


Can't stand the thought of doing that. sm
My boys and their girlfriends all have their tongues pierced. It's so gross. My oldest boy passed out when he had his done and later took it out. Now he is into tattoos. I pierced my own ears and that was enough. I get needles every month for lab work. Forget the body piercing. On another note, with the way the kids and even adults are all into the body image thing, imagine what the staff will be saying when they are all in nursing homes, hospitals, etc, being taken care of by others.
I stand corrected.

My DH can't stand to watch these on TV with me, either, LOL
I worked in the OR for over 4 years, so typing the reports or watching procedures on TV is easy for me. Have you ever seen a nose job or tooth extraction? Kind of brutal how they take a hammer and chisel and just wham away, LOL.
Huh? I can't even stand the 19" - my husband has one
and I hate it. But 23! That's insane! LOL Only 17" works for me :)

Thank you, nm, for your reply to my computer question.
I can't stand it when companies do that.
Making it correct is how the system learn. Leaving it wrong just teaches the system to keep it wrong.
Me too, I can't stand noise.
When you say "clicks" can you describe? I am currently using the Compaq keyboard that came with the computer and it's the best so far with regard to "feel" layout, but its far from quiet. I'm not looking for total silence necessarily, but very very quiet (laptop like) would be outstanding.

Time Warner. Had their cable as there was no other choice but when things go wrong they have the WORST customer service - 4 months of going back and forth and I finally had enough and went with DSL, is a little slower but better than no service.
