It's not about a "sense of empowerment". Not wishing to make you look dumb but

it's about expressing your true feelings instead of playing some sort of game when someone says something so incredibly without logic or they don't UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT (as you did) and JUMP TO AN UNFOUNDED CONCLUSION that somehow but telling someone they are not the brightest bulb on the planet and they bore me gives me "sense of empowerment". You been listening to too much psychobabble and did not PAY ATTENTION TO THE CONCEPT OF THE POST.

By the way, I do not feel a "sense of empowerment" after this post to you. I feel that the world is populated by not-so-smart people who don't read well and that is depressing me.

    Dumb question. Can someone tell me how to make

    "How dumb am I" to lose a CD-ROM? Oh, about as dumb as the rest of us. nm

    Wishing you all a

    Twas the night of Thanksgiving, but I just couldn't sleep.
    I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep.

     
    The leftovers beckoned--the dark meat and white
    but I fought the temptation with all of my might.
     

    Tossing and turning with anticipation,
    the thought of a snack became infatuation.


    So I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door
    and gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore.
    I gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes,
    pickles, and carrots, beans, and tomatoes.

    I felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
    'til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.

    I crashed through the ceiling, floating into the sky
    with a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie.

    But I managed to yell as I soared past the trees,
    Happy eating to all--pass the cranberries, please!

    May your stuffing be tasty, may your turkey be plump.
    May your potatoes 'n gravy have nary a lump.

    May your yams be delicious, may your pies take the prize,
    May your Thanksgiving dinner stay off of your thighs.

     

    WISHING YOU ALL A THANKFUL THANKSGIVING



    wishing disaster on anyone is
     no matter how strongly you feel, you should never, ever wish disaster on anyone. Don't you know that could come back to bite you in the butt...not a nice place to be bitten...except by you hubby maybe!  For real though, that was cruel.  Too many innocents suffer when a disaster like a hurricane or tsunami sweep through, not just the ones you wish it on.  Remember, be careful what you wish for, you just might get it!
    Wishing I had so many options!!
    Boy do I wish I had the option of cable vs DSL vs dialup! The cable line ends 1,000 feet from our home and they will extend the line for a mere $10,000 (yes, you read that correctly). For DSL we are to far from town. I even purchased satellite but there was a 10 second lag from the time that you punched in a letter to the time that it appeared on the screen so it was virtually useless for transcription. MQ had told me that I could not do NW acct with dialup 3 yrs ago so I purchased the satellite $500 later after the lag and and service charges and when I told them that I would have to quit they said "Well you can use dialup too". Go figure. Amherst office boo hiss.
    aw man, it's too cold, but I'm wishing!

    Wishing it to slow down
    I hope it slows down, I don't even have my house decorated yet.  Came back from two days off and had 18 tapes waiting for me.  All are average of 25 minutes or so, some longer.   Hardly any short ones.   I give back 8 and get 6 in return.  Thank goodnes have 3 docs taking off starting the 17th and then can breathe.   Have had several docs say that hospitals are full right now in Portland and hard getting patients in and getting surgeries scheduled so hospitals are full here too.   Guess I will count my blessings.  
    I was WISHING it would work, lol. Just me and

    I've been wishing I could retire since I was still
    Sure don't see it in my future, though, unless I win the Lottery, and most times I can't afford to play.

    No - I do not want implants or a mastopexy - I was just wishing for nature to take care of it!
    My breasts are of a nice size naturally. I am not vain - underwire bras are fine for me.

    Here I sat feeling so incredibly lonely. Wishing I could meet my soul mate
    All the men I have ended up with sound like the guy you are with. Takes all the courage I have to pick up and leave them but staying with them destroys my sense of self esteem, my sense of humor, and dulls my passion for life.

    Now, sitting here, quietly, sipping a capuccino, sitting in a robe, having no expectations (unrealistic) of me, not having the guy in my world stifling me or doing something out of this world to send my spiraling into my mind trying to figure out what he is thinking ...orrr the always present poor financial state that I always seemed to end up in when with a guy (my dad was alcoholic - had tendency to be with men who had character traits of addictive personality types)and all I can think of is life is passing me by cause I am not with a man.

    There are worst things than being alone. Why do I forget this???

    Follow your gut. Your kids will thank you. Children deserve a happy mom and you deserve to live the life you envision.

    Was going to suggest that you wait to buy as I have a feeling some homes will end up in foreclosure as the interest rate increases and the monthly payments on ARMs and interest only loans increase, but if you have a small town that may not be the case.

    Let us know how things go.

    Are you that dumb to know that there were sm
    prisoners also at the Superdome in New Orleans. You act like everyone was a rapist, or trigger happy. As far as looters, if I had children and there was a bottle of water and bread in a store damn straight I would take it and feed my children. Many of those people worked and lost their jobs in LA, AL, and MS. You are just a bitter person.
    not as dumb as you think?
    Cabbage=CABG

    No, not dumb! Actually, yes, I did. None of
    the buttons work though, just the calc/clear button (very top right on the bottom bottons) work.
    DUMB-DUMB
    Okay, I downloaded Express scribe, when I use the load button and enter the FTP address, nothing happens.  I must be missing an obvious step, so obvious I cannot see it.  I hope this is all worth it!
    dumb me... but......
    Applying for jobs that state much have WAV pedal....  USB will not work... so what now?  Am I screwed?  I have a laptop and went and bought an adapter for a 9-ping foot pedal.  Is there a web site that I can go to to do a test practice with?  Dumb-me.    trying to get a job......
    Maybe a dumb
    question but are you talking about the "Gab room" for the chat?


    how dumb are you to even go there?: NM
    .
    ok, maybe I'm dumb but
    what is an STM? "Something" transcription manager?  Are you by chance inundating her with requests or is it that she just does not acknowledge any of your e-mails?  I don't think I'd put up with being ignored for too long.  I'd seriously consider going over her head or looking elsewhere for work.
    Count me as a dumb MT if
    you want.  It made perfect sense to me.
    This may sound dumb, but..
    where is the chat room?
    Dumb dictation
    Review of systems was not obtainable from the baby, obviously, due to the baby's age of one month.  Review was obtained from parents.  DUH!!!!
    dumb dictation
    Don't you just love these..I had one with the 11 MO understanding the assessment and agrees with the treatment!
    dumb as a box of rocks (don't ask me!)

    I'm gravida 0 and I have a dumb ?
    If you are 9 mos. pregnant and in the hospital for induction, on abdominal exam, can your abdomen actually be *soft*?

    I have felt pg bellies, and they are not soft. Why do they always say this? It doesn't make sense to me, but then I have no personal experience with it.
    dumb question. sm

    If you make a mistake while typing and you know it, do you correct it then, or do wait until you spellcheck to correct ?   I tend to correct it when I see it, but began to wonder if it would be more productive to wait until I run spellcheck to catch it.


     


    What a dumb response.
    ...sheesh....
    feeling dumb......
    when the doctor says dig level in the labs is he meaning digitalis level? my Expander expands dig to digoxin and I never thought to change it. I know digoxin toxicity is dangerous.  I have never gotten feed back on this potentially dangerous (?) blooper.
    There are also those that pretend to be dumb so they don't have to. sm
    And those that call in sick every other day, that if they were really sick that often, they should be in nursing home.

    Needless to say, I got out of supervising because I did not want to hate people anymore, and I could be petty like everybody else and get away with it like everybody else.

    I've got wounds to nurse...

    So why did she marry him, cause she's dumb, or it
    was a coverup. 
    Dumb question of the day!!!
    What does MTSO stand for? I told you it was dumb.
    Might be a dumb question, but...
    I got an awesome poster on ebay that came in the mail yesterday.  The one end of the cardboard tube was dented quite badly, causing  the one side of the poster to be rather wrinkled.    Is there anything to be done for it?  I'm hoping that maybe putting it in the poster frame I got for it might help.  Any other suggestions?
    No, not a dumb question....

    From what I gathered on Google, it is transcribing what the court reporter types into a readable document.


    Got it thanks all - felt so dumb and my
    teenager wasn't home. 
    now thats a dumb question lol
    let's use some wisdom here...
    Have you ever heard the saying dumb
    as a gourd?
    We're not dumb, BUT
    You really have to develop a thick skin regarding criticism. And you'll even make yourself feel dumb sometimes!

    There is no other career that will make you feel like a rocket scientist and an abject failure all in the span of a 3-minute dictation!

    You have to take the lesson in whatever form you get it and then let the rest go. Don't nurse grudges, it'll just give ya ulcers!
    Hate to appear dumb, but what is VBC?
    nm
    I used to be young and dumb but
    when I came into some money, quite a bit of it, paid all my bills off. I only have my monthly bills now, utilities and such. It is a wonderful feeling but to the original post, it is here money and really if she wants to burn it, she can.
    Not a dumb question, the way I see it...
    Did you ever think she was just trying to make pleasant conversation about what happened to your daughter.  I would not see question as dumb or unimportant.  It certainly doesn't matter if she was, in fact, taking her history,but if she was just trying to be friendly then it's called 'engaging' the patient in conversation about her injury.
    dumb question!

    Hi!  If you are responding to a job posting on the job seekers board and you hit "apply now," does it actually go to the person who is looking to hire or do you have to send it as a completely separate e-mail.  I'm asking because there is no identifying information when you reply to the ad.  Thanks!
