QA is overrated and yes they do need to get themselves.... QA are MTs that think they know more than a regular MT... in a nutshell....

Thank you SOooo much MQA !...
Just what I needed! You don't know how much you have helped! I have printed your response. I was trying to make it too hard by overthinking like I always do. My physical therapist keeps hinting that one of their (at home) transcriptionists left, HINT HINT, and I have been afraid to talk to the office manager because of all of the logistics stuff.

One more question: About the 3$ a page...could you explain a little more about that. What about half pages and the like? Have you figured out what kind of cpl that equals? However, the 3$ a page sounds like a much easier way to calculate the bill.
Thanks again!
That is SOOOO right-on!

you are soooo right.

Thank you soooo much. I thought it was just me.

That Indian MT who lives in the US story and cherry picks while not wanting to do Indian bad dictators just was too much!  And the insider who told the MT this was happening.   Wow!  For two months!!!  How long should it take for the Indian MT to cherry pick before she does the Indian dictators?   Blah, blah, blah.  How and why do people do this to themselves?


It is the nature of the business just like sales.  You win some, you lose some.  There is feast and there is famine.  Do the work while it is there because tomorrow it may be dry.  Don't like the work, get another job.

MTStars and Executive Communications!

I'm sorry, but I would have soooo just walked out of there.
That HAD to be awkward.
I soooo can relate to you!.....sm
Please don't feel so bad, menopause affects your mood, temperament, just so many things about your body that you are used to! I had a radical hysterrectomy back in 2000, so I had to go through menopause "instantly." I could not take the patch and hated HRT, so I have been using naturopathic supplements to help....but depression, mood swings, cravings, the HORRIFIC night sweats and hot flashes, lowered libido....I got it all, and it really is a transition. Could you perhaps speak with a compassionate female therapist, not necessarily a psychiatrist, but someone who understands what you are going through and can hash out all of the issues that are bothering you? Just know that I care, you have friends here, and please feel free to e-mail me anytime, okay?
soooo true
I was hired as a QA manager and the company I work for have been trying to demote me every chance they get, promoting the less qualified, etc etc. It is clear that a good MT is more valuable to a company as just that, an MT. Sooo try not to be as good and you might move up in the ranks. LOL;
Thank you guys soooo much!
I knew this was the place to come to get help! 
Soooo true!
Well spoken.  No one seems to care that these foreign parasites are compromising the integrity of their own patient records with their slovenly dictation styles!!!!!!!!!!!
some people are soooo lucky!

Oh yeah, I am soooo scared!
What are you gonna do, ride your horse over here and get me???????
Your BOS post is soooo true! sm

There are so many newer MT's who don't know the facts where BOS is concerned.  I use my BOS everyday....  it elevates my monitor to just the right height. 


 


Soooo weird. Hmmmm
This post refers to the posts below from the ICs from TRX (I am one) - I find it interesting that a person would come on here and call someone out of there name (the owner) and then walk away without explaining how he/she came to their conclusion.  Seems a person would want to make their case or maybe just persons like myself and the other IC who stood up to ask why.  I'm so confused.  I guess we're all just different that way.    Some people are yellow and some aren't.  That's right, I said it. 
Ok..I will soooo not watch SVU anymore if they
split up Olivia and Elliot!! OMG what a show tonight!
This is not creamy, but is SOOOO good...
1 cup oil
1 cup vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 Tbsp salt
1/2 Tbsp garlic powder
3 Tbsp parsley flakes (may use less)
1/2 Tbsp black pepper
4 tsp dried mustard
16 oz cooked rotini
1 medium cucumber
1 medium green pepper


Mix all ingredients well, refrigerate before serving.

Note: I leave out the cucumber and pepper when refrigerating, and cut these and add just before serving.

MS Word SOOOO Slow
Has anyone ever experienced a very slow MS Word program all of a sudden?  It is very slow to get into and exit from MS Word 2002. Once in the program it is fine and all other programs on computer seem to work fine.  Wondering if I may have too many autocorrect and autotext entries??  Any help would be appreciated.  have tried everything can think of, even added much memory.  Thanks.
Wow to Technical Support! Thanks soooo much! ....
for your extensive answer!
I'll start with cleaning up my mouse and working up from there if this does not work.
I'll let you know.
There are still very kind, knowledgable, helpful and generous people in this world, THANKS !
I was soooo lucky... my son was potty trained at 2..
He had his 2nd birthday party on Saturday, and on Monday he started potty training.  Never bought another diaper.  Two weeks later, he was in underwear during the day.  But, I took him regularly and monitored his juice intake.  Thirty minutes after dinner was the last full drink.  He would go potty right before bedtime at 8pm and maybe get a little juice if he asked for it.  Since I worked nights, I would wake him up (or just take him sleep) to the bathroom at around 12am or 12:30am.  He would wake up dry most mornings, but he wore Pull-Ups until he was about 2-1/2.  He is 7 now and has an accident every blue moon, mainly because he falls asleep in bed without going to the bathroom right before getting in bed.  Proud of him.  Yours will get there too. 
They are using US and laughing at us. NM
xxx
Laughing!
For someone who has been on "both sides of the game" you sure do not have your facts straight. You do not have to be a member of AAMT to take the CMT exam!!
not laughing
but cutting it off with a knife takes all the fun out of it.

eating vertically is, I guess, round and round, as opposed to side to side. Didn't know how to describe it. I eat both ways, actually, I don't want to miss a thing!
got me laughing too!! Thanks. nm
t
still laughing

giggles are good and docs come up with some fine ones.  just had this on H&P. 


GU, RECTAL, and BREAST exam are deformed!!!!!! lololololol


Not laughing at all.

I have read several articles where people talked about doing that.  I hadn't even thought of that and my tailbone is as sore as the rest of yours are.


Thanks for the reminder!  I think I even have one of those babies stashed somewhere.  Time to take a break and find it.


I agree, and I work for MQ! Sooo boring, soooo old, and
you would think they'd realize how idiotic they look - whining and whining and predicting doom and gloom! Honestly, MQ and Philips is BOOMING in the business world right now.  Huge advances the last few months - HUGE sales of products, advances, awards in the industry.  I get email alerts daily on the HUGE growth of MQ - and these old sea-hags just sit on here and cackle about DOOM.  Boy, do they need a reality check, or what? All is fine in MQ world, and always, always will be!  As long as you're willing to work and have a brain, MQ is a great place to work! Oh, yeah, and I'm mgmt - making 6 figures and even remotely interested in sea-hag opinions! That is just soooooooooooooo lame, too! Or maybe I'm the same poster from below who always uses CAPS! That is sooooooooooo funny. Cracked up at that analysis - some of these women have way toooooooo much time on their hands rather than hitting the keyboard! Analysing posts to compare typing styles. Give me a break! What a hoot!
Soooo...what are you saying? That people should post something that is worthy of the board in SM
your estimation? Would you like to have the monitors delete this post about KL and Regis? What is it that you want? Or would YOU like to think of a transcription topic and post it? What's the deal?
I'm still laughing...that is great...

Now I've got all these images in my head about Internest Street in Transcription City.  This is really, really funny.  My dog is looking at me wondering why I'm laughing to myself.  Oh well!!  Probably will be thinking about this all day...will develop a whole town, with many streets and avenues.


What other names can others come up with.  Lets build this city.  OK everyone, send in your suggestions!!  


I am not laughing at the technology.
At this point, at least to my understanding, the health insurance industry and Joint Commission require detailed documentation,especially the insurance companies who love to quibble on what they'll pay. When the detailed documentation is no longer being required and standard text and check off systems are used, the docs have no way to cover their butts. Let a few of them be sued for malpractice because they have no detailed proof of exact treatment, and we'll see just how wonderful this mobile system works. The insurance companies will be in an uproar over the judgements they are paying out.
I didn't see anybody laughing.
Everyone thinks Frankie boy has major mental problems.
lol! well, laughing through my tears, actually.

Laughing Out Loud. nm

If you can stop laughing for a sec...
Where are these "places where typing pays decent$$$" and "there are tons and tons of men," please? I've been in the working world for over 40 years and no matter what the job, men are going to be paid more, even if they are just standing the "Slow" sign on road construction. The only exceptions I know of are jobs where equity is demanded by law - such as state government and big corporations that are affected by the federal wage and labor laws.

Part of the reason are men paid more is because they think they deserve it and will not accept the same kind of treatment most women will take for the sake of a job. Also, men are more likely to be put into management and supervisor positions, despite their education and experience. It happens in nursing, customer service, any job that is predominantly female. There are probably a lot of reasons for that and I won't even go there.
ok, got it - you were on floor laughing *LOL.nm
 
LOL=laughing out loud (nm)

ROFL ASR keeps me laughing

I get lots of funnies too


Laughing at this doctor
he thinks cc, as in carbon copy, stands for closed caption.  Please closed caption Dr. So-And-So.
Those are both priceless!!! Now I'm laughing. nm.

I think this must be a joke, and I am not laughing.

Why are you both obsessed with laughing??? sm
Jasper is laughing... You're laughing... Acusis is laughing... Glad to see you're all so easily amused.


My personal experience with the MTSO in question is that they have been above-board and forthcoming with info in past *crises* and I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt here. Besides, as I read Jasper's post, this pay cut was strictly for the editors... I'm not an editor.

I'm also smart enough NOT to cut off my nose to spite my face: IF my MT pay rate is cut, I'll still choose to stick around with Acusis because I have decent benefits including freebie money in my 401K, relatively pleasant accounts, and I KNOW that to start all over again with any other company out there, INCLUDING the beloved and hallowed WMX, I'd be making LESS per line and I'd be running out of work. So...

You and Jasper go right ahead and jump ship. I'll be glad to pick up your OT, and I'll bet I'm not the only one who stays behind to pick up the slack.

Best of luck to YOU, too, and thank you for leaving. *chuckle*
Laughing when you said the doctors are doing their own
editing. They cannot even spell most of the time.
I love Directv. The picture is soooo much clearer than cable. sm
Prices in our area are comparable between cable and DirecTV.  If you look at their website, you can pull up comparison charts showing exactly which channels are on each service package.  You can sort them by number or alphabetically and print them out if necessary.
OMG, I'm in tears I'm laughing so hard!
That is so funny!
Still laughing my ... off and now im gonna work
z
Not laughing at your bill.. that bites..but
in California gas & electric has sucked big time for decades! I average around $2000 a year...throw in some rolling blackouts too.
lol=laughing out loud, tia= thanks in advance
b
I believe lots of laughs/laughing and
thanks in advance.
When new, my boss started laughing
when looking over my report, apologized and said she was sorry but she couldn't help laughing.  I had typed "the patient has a four-foot stump" instead of forefoot.  Then another time, the doctor's first name was Gus, and I had typed Gums, thankfully they caught it right before it went on the record.
