My friend's son-in-law works for a large tree-trimming company and was sent down to help out. However, another company that had already been there were held up at gunpoint and had all their power tools and equipment stolen, all their money, watches, etc., so my friend's son-in-law's company said the hell with them and they are calling all their people back home. These are the people who are crying for help and then they turn on the ones who are trying to help them. I would say the hell with them, too.

Kay's the one who said she had no interest

in looking up past polls on the exact topic (that are from "real" individuals!).  Or that real individuals had no interest in answering her poll, whatever.  I merely suggested that people get tired of answering the same old questions, which is why she's not getting any response.


Why you bagging on me?  She asked the question, she didn't like being told to do a little research, it's the same as on the Word board.  If you think being honest and offering a suggestion is a smart-butt reply, man, you need to get out more often.


My interest in this???
If you would have read the original post, you would know my interest, which is nothing.  I was simply asked to check this board out by a number of associates that are MTs and wanted my input as to whether or not I thought there was a resolution to all the issues mentioned here.  I simply was making an observation of all the topics.  I simply was throwing a few thoughts out there.  I simply was trying to make a difference.  It seems that the most of the MTs here are not looking for a resolution, but just a place to vent and do nothing else but that.  There is an old saying "where there's a will, there's a way".  These companies can only get away with what the MTs allow them to get away with.  If the American MTs refused to fill in the off-shore work, the company would have no choice but to change their protocol.  If the MTs would refuse to fill in VR for low pay, they would have to change that too!  Yes, there is always someone with less experience willing to work for less and they too would soon be found out.  The MTs here can argue back and forth with me about what I have to say, stating I know nothing of the history, etc., however, any person with half a brain reading here for a short period could see that if you did something about what you are complaining about, instead of allowing it, you just might see a change.  I have been helping people get results for many many years and have been very successful.  So.... with that being said, I am not the one on the losing end.
No interest in polls
I wanted to hear from 'real' individuals.  I know that polls are supposedly based on responses from individuals -yet, no interest.
I see no problem with that - seems it would be in their best interest also

No conflict of interest. sm
Obviously he is her client, and if she's not typing for him on her time with the company you both work for, there is no conflict of interest.

She is free to type for whomever she wants as long as it is not on company time.

Whatever is going on with the doctor and the company you work for are separate issues.

Hope this helps!
and then you have to pay taxes on the interest LOL
I buy I Bonds.

Not sure why everyone is so anti-government. The government DOES do a lot of things for us and to do that they need money!
what's you interest in this that you have become such a beitch about the whole issue?
Just curious?
Yes, definite conflict of interest there.
Speak to your manager and let him/her handle it.
Put it in the bank. 100 years of interest. Just think!

Give me a break! 


I needed a good laugh, thanks for posting.  Trust me, I'm only laughing at the sheer stupidity of issuing a check for one cent. You can't even rebel and send it back to them because you'd be out 36 cents.


Maybe you should frame it and label it, "My Big Bonus."


JT, and just what IS your interest in any poster's orientation? nm
nm
Oh yes. If you are penalized, you have to pay interest rates sm
that make credit card companies look generous.  Better to have more withheld than having to owe.  I hated filing those quarterly returns.  yuck.
Not at 23% interest on a repayment plan! NM

Especially their interest in CHINA, of all places. -sm
Look at what's been coming out of there already - poison pet food, poison people food, badly made and dangerous children's toys, flimsy everything else, etc. They try to bend the rules on just about everything they make & export.

Imagine the quality of their medical transcription.....

which credit cards have the lowest interest now?
Looking to consolidate some bills, looking for the credit card with lowest interest
New credit card interest rates (sm)

Wondering if those of us on this board have noticed that credit card companies will be increasing their interest rates along with the minimum payment due soon.  How will this affect some people who can barely make the minimum payments now.  Any insight greatly appreciated. 


Easy enough to just skip over subjects that don't interest you? NM

Call around and ask. I'm sure there would be plenty of interest in having you as a client!

I lost interest when Chris left . . .
but of the two I think Katherine is the "whole package". As far as being inconsistent, she's a young amateur, get her in the studio and a couple years experience and I think she'll be pretty darn good. Kelly has greatly improved over the years.
My CMT lapsed years ago because of lack of interest. sm
in AAMT and the direction it was taking.

I've found that having been a prior CMT is quite enough to get the interest of potential employers. However, it is how well you transcribe NOW that gets you recognition. Your work will speak for itself.

It's up to you if you want to spend the money for the test and the money and precious time to maintain the CEs. For me, it's how well I get the job done now that matters to me and my employer.

IMO, once a CMT, always a CMT, whether active or lapsed. They are just letters, and I have no regrets.

Some bad grammar above, eh?, but you get the picture.

BTW, I was CMT by exam by proctor in the good old days when USA transcription was all-American (and then I became a proctor!)

I agree with your opinion about the "grandfathered" CMTs.

Hope this helps. And BTW, I admire your attitude.




We couldn't keep up interest & attendance to keep the chapter going. This was years ago. nm

Unlike a certain MTSO..the big kids don't have any interest in monitoring MT boards.
nm
My extreme interest in all things medical/surgical keeps me loving it. nm
.
They are checking accounts with higher interest, minimum balance required, I believe.

I filed for an extension and paid nothing until August 15th. No penalty for that, just interest. nm

Not to mention you're letting the govt use your money INTEREST FREE
Ack!

Now that said, I usually have them withhold a little too much simply because we can't take a payment hit.
OF INTEREST TO ALL TIME WARNER CUSTOMERS...THEY ARE GOING TO START CHARGING FOR USAGE AND NOT A FLAT

This really sucks as the article said it would impact heavy users only.  My cable bill is already high but to be charged for actual using will skyrocket my bill.  I think I could spit nails right now.  I can post the article if anyone is interested.  They said it will be a trial period.  Anyone else use Time Warner?
