If for some reason it stays permanent they do make a contraption that you put the dog in with wheel

Posted By: Laura E. on 2005-09-28
In Reply to: My 10 yo dog has lost ability to use hind legs - following surgery

So the dog still uses its front legs but the wheels in the back act as the dogs "legs" and it can still get around and be mobile, kind of like a dog wheelchair so to speak. I hope he feels better this morning.

RE: Can anyone tell me how to make an AutoCorrect with subscript so it stays - like FEV1?? nm

As an SE, all taxes are taken out, but I am wondering if that is reason enough to make a change? sm
Company "A" is my first job being an IC and I am not sure I can wrap my head around why any employer cannot take out taxes which is not the case with many companies which offer you IC status. They tell us how and when to work. This IC job I have right now is no different than any job I have ever had with a hospital, but I think it is a rip off having to pay self-employment taxes. BTW, Company A is in the same state in which I live, so wouldn't be difficult to take taxes out of my check.
Permanent makeup
I don't know about the schools, but two of my coworkers and one physician had it done a few years ago...looks great, eyeliner and lips! Never have to apply eyeliner again, what a luxury!
I tried the permanent markers...sm
they don't work. They start to wear off within two days! Thanks for the info about the stickers.
there is a craft pen - permanent -
I have one in gold. it was used on glass x-mas ornaments we made and dated, and it was used to autograph a guitar (Alice Cooper) because of its permanent nature. Neither rubbed off.

Came in gold and silver, not sure what other colors. This might work.

Also, I agree below, clear fingernail polish on the next new one before using.

The trailer I had was not on a permanent foundation,
the wheels were removed, and the interest rate was not outrageous.
permanent makeup career
I was  told that you could make tons of money with this.  I have been searching for a schools for a career change, and one is esthetician.  That is too expensive for me right now, I do not want to go further in debt, but the permanent makeup section is offered alone, and is less than half the cost.  She swears by it, if course she was trying  to get me to go to that school, just wondered if you have any opinions.  Thanks.
the president's vacation isn't long enough. needs to be permanent.
as for brain surgeons, they may be making enough money to pay the rent AND take a vacation; I'm not.
Is there a computer keyboard available with permanent lettering that cannot

be erased over time.  I am so tired of buying keyboards every other month.


 


Thanks


Laser hair removal is not permanent....nm

My hubbie is disabled and on permanent disability...sm
and he absolutely cannot make any money other than his disability if you want the full benefits. I think you can work part-time and get part-time benefits, but you will have to check on that. My understanding was they deduct any amount of money you make from your benefits and you would get what was left. But, again, the best thing is to go to the agency or call them and make sure before you do anything, as the rules seem to change constantly, but for full benefits you cannot make any money under your name.
In my state you can, it's considered a permanent layoff NM

Everyone stays 6 to 8 weeks. sm
They usually quit when they realize they have to wait to get paid for work they did a month ago. Also, known to not pay employees their last check when they quit. I think anyone there after 8 weeks is long-term.LOL Few employees there who come here to defend them, but most posts about this place are thumbs down.
LOL! if it stays down, maybe we could get a raise!
I hope it stays down long enough to have us appreciated and get a raise! Watch, all the "good" dictators will mysteriously appear again....
The problem is 3 cpl, 4 cpl stays at that.
So I say just say no.  at 4 cpl on VR I make about $1 more an hour than my daughter at McDonalds and her insurance is less than half of mine with better coverage.  6 cpl would be slightly different, but it's not 6 cpl.
Why re-invent the wheel?
There are at least three excellent schools for medical transcription that are available to anyone who wants to become an MT. They are listed under the SCHOOLS category for this website - M-Tec, Andrews, and CareerStep. When you need to hire someone, you can contact the schools for their graduates and then you won't have to train your employees. And whenever anyone asks you about how to become an MT, refer them to those schools. Then we'll all get what we need - a larger pool of well-trained American MTs.
You need to find a new wheel.
You have too many broken spokes.
No need to reinvent the wheel. nm
nm
You don't. Once you send your post, it stays
just like that. If it is something you want removed because it might be offensive or you realize you shouldn't have posted it, contact administration. I doubt they have the time nor inclination to edit posts just for typos.

Too bad we can't do that, huh?!
It's quiet now. Hope it stays that way...
I thought things were pretty quiet lately, but then again I only spend a short time here checking on companies and the job seeker's board.

However, just start talking about the things you want to talk about like what's for dinner or your trip to Costa Rica. I'm sure someone will join in with you.

I think some of them come here to vent, unwind or have been burned by an employer and want to warn others like you said.

But the catty ones, well that's a different story.

BTW, what's for dinner?:)

Better than that, the wheel eraser with the little brush. nm

My husband has talked to them, it has improved some but they still do it....so it stays as it is - n

You need to be flexible. Nothing stays the same in MT. You do it how the person paying you says to
:+
...The content stays the same - history, symptoms,

I type what the Dr. or dictator stays, period - sm
I have had to type quotes of the patient cussing, etc. If they say it, I transcribe it. Why question it? This is what is wrong with the world all this political correctness. If not lesbian then what? Would she have felt better if the doc said dike? Personally I think lesbian is fine, as is gay or homosexual. Lesbian just means the patient is a female, since gay is generally applied to men. People really worry about the s.t.u.pidist things.
The wheel's spinning, but the hamster's dead.

Hold down CTL key & scroll up/down with wheel on mouse.

Yes, it's microwave popcorn - best invention since the wheel! - nm

Your are wrong again: I would never hire a 'squeaky wheel',,,nm

Hi, Clara: Thanks a lot for your tip with the Control key and the mouse wheel...sm
That's great, didn't know that, learned somehing new today, thanks!
Dont think Dixie is looking to favorable right now. Hope she stays on her other bb and keeps her
mouth shut. Why would she favor a company that has their people running out of work.
Can someone tell me how to set Word so that header stays in view on the report? nm


 


Hold down on the Ctrl key and scroll your mouse wheel.

Yes - if you have a mouse with a roller wheel you can hold down the control key on your keyboard the
or roll the mouse wheel backwards to decrease print size. This will also work on some web pages. Really great.
Will be a nurse-practitioner...but I'll keep my MTSO as long as it stays alive...

You spending 3K in gasoline to make 4K plus all that time on the road?That doesn't make sense Pat




How nice that the world revolves around what you make and no one else could possibly make more. sm

Marla in So. California pays 11 cpl for a 55 ccl, Oracle pays 9-1/2 cpl, MDI-MD 11 cpl, JLG 10 cpl for gross line, etc.


Of course, these are rates negotiated and paid to qualified MTs.


When I see mistakes I repeatedly make, I make a quickcorrect for it (sm)
for example if I type we plant o instead of "plan to" I have a quick corrct so that if I type plant o, it replaces it with plan to, etc. It is hard - I was with the same company for 8 years. I do not work for anyone with an accuracy requirement though.
When you make the copay, make them give you a sm
receipt for the amount you pay them.  I know they don't like to do this because it takes time, but if you are really stern and insist on a receipt they have to give you one.  Then, the next time you get billed for something you already paid, tell them to look for their copy of the receipt and let THEM do the work. 
Yes, unfortunately you do have to make a pest of yourself to make it work, but.....
as the years went by that is why I stayed away from those type of companies.  BTW, Noni is a fabulous product, I absolutely do not care for the "marketing techniques" they use.  One of the facts of this type of industry is you cannot just recruit to make it, you have to retail.  Ever since I "overhauled" my techniques and system...I never had to ask another person to some on board again.  Well, nuf for now.  Take care and have a blessed week!!
lol cut myself off. Anyway, I'll make close to what I used to make with MQ,
ddd
the reason you (and I) don't get it is sm
probably cause it is a gross exaggeration of their production.  No one could produce that much, unless they kept their fingers glued to the keyboard. I'm sorry, it's just not possible.  Don't beat yourself up because of other people.  Be proud of who you are and what you do! 
For some reason if you have a different
opinion than the people reading your post, they tend to grow fangs and sharp fingernails and tear you up. I don't understand this as we all have the right to our opinion. We need to work on a solution to resolve this issue not attack one another. We don't know what kind of situation the other posters are in and they don't know what position we are in. Just because one person has a wonderful experience with MQ and DQS does not make the person posting a bad experience with MQ and DQS a liar. It simply means that you are in different situations.
Reason
The reason for that is straightforward:  the owner of the other website is very pro-offshore MT transcription and apparently is in cahouts with the MQ execs up to her eyeballs.   Nothing wrong with, nothing illegal, all very straight up, but all very you scratch my back and i'll scratch yours.  They LIKE each other, and the other website simply will not tolerate any negative MQ comments.  And here?  Well, the truth is allowed to be aired out.  Thank you MT Stars for having the cahoonas! 
The reason is for ME's 20% pay cut
They underbid on jobs, telling the client if they use the ASR system they will pay 2 cents less per line, telling them it is such a fast system they can do this. That is not the way it worked out. We are not producing more with it. Expansions were just as good, if not better is some cases and now they have to take the money out of our pockets. (It is on the archives here if you read back through as well.)
There was a reason behind this

As was mentioned, they are not actively seeking offshore.  However, in order to keep this very large account (and it is large), they had to use some offshore labor.  You know, I don't love it either.  However, all of the MTs on this account could have just been out of work.  So, now a little of it goes offshore, and the US MTs still have their account and their work. It's not great. It's not the ideal.  But, at least we are still working.


You know the reason--
Because some idiot did it and they got sued. When I worked at a hospital years ago, it was July in Phoenix and the temperature was well over 110. We had a guy bring his daughter into the ER with burns on her legs because she went down an outside metal slide at McDonald's and got burns on her legs. His excuse was-- Well, there was no sign on the slide saying it was hot. People are just plain stupid any more.
The reason you don't see many men
in this profession is because they are unwilling to take _____ and they are also unwilling to work so hard for so little pay. I would not recommend this job to anyone just starting out, because I believe it is a dying industry. We are already seeing that now with VR, etc.
