Maybe she should join Tatum O. on Dancing With the Stars. (sm)

In Reply to: Just wondering if there might be any thoughts on D. Barrymore's - dress on Golden Globes last night?

The Desperate Housewives are always great, they get my vote.

Dancing with Stars
Yes, I love it. So far, Jerry Rice was my absolute favorite!
Does anybody watch Dancing With the Stars?

I want Drew Lachey to win so far. Such a great show. 


 I wish I could ballroom dance but unfortunately..... not so good.


I can't believe I missed Dancing with the Stars last night.
Fill me in.  How did my favorite Drew do?  ( I don't want to hear anything too bad about Drew.)  What about the others.  HELP!  I need a rerun.
You probably did her a favor, Tatum.
If she can't handle transcription, she should get out and seek other work. We all have to manage our own careers. Good riddance to her, and good luck to you.
Did anyone else laugh when they saw Tatum O on (sm)

Dancing with the Stars?  She was an actress, she said.  She didn't have to compete with others or work to get the acting jobs, thanks to daddy Ryan, LMAO!  Maybe that is why reality TV is becoming so popular.  People would rather watch reality TV than bad acting.  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA


Okay, now who is going to defend this woman who had her most embarrassing moment....


Yeah, they had all those huge A-listers like Tia Carrere and Tatum O'Neal

If Tatum O was not a good actress she wouldn't have work no matter who her daddy was.
But you are right on one count. I would rather watch reality TV than bad acting and TV is filled with bad acting and bad scripts.

I didn't think Tatum did anything wrong unless you think telling the truth is a bad thing.
Dancing
To answer your ?...Drew did great. If I remember got a 28 or 29 out of 30, did the Quick Step. Love the show. In fact, starting dancing lessions tonight!

I miss dancing

Haven't gone out dancing since about 1990.

I told my 24-year-old I want to go before I die and she said she would take me to a club with drag queens who perform on stage. I can't wait!!!


Dancing with the has-beens is more like it

re: Dancing Shoes and MQ Rocks
Yes there are MT's out there who only hae one account and never run out of work--none of these MT's work for the Amherst office, if they do, please feel free to prove me wrong. If there is an MT that works for the Amherst office and only has ONE account and they can make their lines and never run out of one--please let us know. Then we would know that their was hope for us. I agree with Dancing Shoes in the CA office, when our office closed 4 or 5 of our MT's were transferred to the CA MQ office, some went to the AZ MQ office, which has now closed, and those girls were transferred to the Dallas office, and some were transferred to the Ohio office, whcih according to one of the postings is being closed at the end of the year--all these MT's have plenty of work and only have one or two accounts and can make their production. My point is, if other offices can be run this way, why can't the Foxboro and Amherst offices be run the same way. Why do we need to be in 5 or 6 accounts, or as the MT that posted earlier today, she was in 8 accounts. Again, why can't all the offices be run the same. If there is not enough work to go around stop hiring more people--the accounts certainly can not be out of TAT when we are all out of work
speaking of dancing dogs...

maybe yours just need a few lessons?  :)

The horse does line dancing
Was really cute-- does all the steps that the people do.
Hey dancing girl - what did they say it was? Didn't come through

My guess was costochondritis, but still, medical checkup was necessary.

My husband HATES dancing, clubs, anything
of the sort. I love to dance and so go out with my friends from time to time to clubs to do so. A lot of my married, taken and single friends join me. We go out to have fun together, not to pick people up. There are exceptions. He doesn't mind that I do this from time to time, just like I don't mind him playing pool (at a bar) with the guys from time to time. Also, we do have young kids at home too. Just because you are married and have kids doesn't mean you can't have a social life too.

A couple of times a week, without me, no way. That kind of pattern shows there is something else going on. He might not be seeing someone else, but I think maybe he doesn't want to be home...or it could be both.
Here's a longer clip of that dancing dog. Worth the watch!
This woman's name is Carolyn Scott and her dog Rookie!  What a pair!
Grease, The Silence of the Lambs, and Dirty Dancing

They're great! Lots of sweating, jumping, dancing. Fun! I just ordered more. nm

I'd join it!
.
I will so join you on that!

If you'll also add a branch for cell-phone drivers ... SHHH*T (...In Traffic). 



Why thank you ER MT, and sure you can join
me anytime you'd like.  It is very cold here in the state of Delaware, too, and I think the snow is coming!  I love the snow when it first falls because it is so pretty.  We like to go to Rehoboth, which is a little over an hour south of us, so that's where I drift when it is cold and stressful.  Thanks for you help by the way with the avatar, I greatly appreciate it. 
join me???
Me and a few other transcriptionists are going to do hand-written letters to The White House about how outsourcing is affecting hospital employees, transcription in particular.  I am having them to mail me their letters, and I am going to put them all into a big envelope together and mail them to The White House.  If you would like to join us in this, please email me and I will give you my address so that your letter can be in there as well.  We are trying to get our voices heard and save our careers, so please join us.
Another group to join...sm
DeadBeatHunters@yahoo.com - you can learn from other posters. Be careful about the accuracy of their advice, though. The monitor told me that you can get retroactive to your application with CSE, but the CSE attorney said they do not do that. Since it took 2 years to locate my husband' Ex, that could have been alot of money!

http://www.deltabravo.net/custdy/ - you can go here because one of the forums is called Child Support. They even have a page there where you can learn things that are specific for your state. I think that's where you can read about child support laws in your state.

What's your case about? Do you have an CS order signed by a judge? Can the deadbeat be located? Is he interstate (it's a felony to leave the state if you are in arrears for child support).

Just don't give up! Good Luck!
Join Curves or a gym...really

I have found that if I get up in the morning and go to Curves on a regular basis after I send my kids off to school, I have the chance to interact with people, get some exercise, and even make some good girlfriends because you are all there at the same time every day or every other day.  You feel good by the time you get home, take a shower and sit down to work.  I've also found church to be a huge outlet as well as getting involved with community events (i.e. volunteering) to be very rewarding.  You have to make your life, it does not come to you.  Hang in there, this is a great job to have, don't give it up for that reason, you can really make the isolation a non-issue.  Best Wishes


don't join in the conversation if you sm
don't want to but don't censor others from doing so!
join the club
Age/arthritis? - see a doctor. Out of shape? - exercise. Here are some PT back exercises: http://www.nismat.org/orthocor/programs/lowback.html

Feel better!

Ummmm - that was join, not joint.
If You Can't Beat Them Join Them

There's an old saying which says "If You Can't Beat Them Join Them"  I dunn think any of us can stop outsourcing and I dunnt feel there is any point crying over loss of income. So I have followed this ("If You Can't Beat Them Join Them") and I did't lose a dime as the companies outsourced big time. I have myself started taking 100% more work than before and am outsourcing them to individuals in India (the quality generally is good) who does the transcribing (obviously I get the work done at a much lower rate than what I myself get paid). By doing so my hourly rate works out even higher than anno's


VLM -Tried in the 60's to get transcriptionists to join a
union to no avail. Nurses at that time also were non-union - they decided to unionize as their pay and benefits were also abysmal at that point in time. Compare that to their income & benefits now compared to ours. The reply I received for not joining a union then was that the transcriptionists did not want to jeopordize patient care in case of a strike. Well,I agreed we played an integral part in patient care, albeit felt it was secondary compared to the role of nurses regarding patient care - who decided to risk going on strike and made the choice to unionize!!

I totally dropped out of transcription for 10 yrs, only to return and find that AAMT was the answer to our problems. Need I say more ?

As far as the scenario of striking in this day and age with no income, I imagine if I'd add up all the slow days, days without work, holiday periods without work, I could also survive a strike. Only difference being knowing I'd return to work with better benefits including help with health care coverage and increased pay, rather than decreased pay. Shoot - maybe even being recognized as a "Profession" instead of a typist - cognizant of our intelligence & knowledge!!

I don't know to this day if unionizing would have helped us back in the years when it was feasible, but still feel we couldn't have been any worse off than where we are today!

Trying to organize a union now I'll leave in the hands of my internet savvy young ones. How this could be accomplished in this day and age is now beyond my level of expertise!




You 2 should find each other and do lunch sometime! I'm too far away to join ya...nm
s
Not sure on this but I think you pay to be listed with the BBB - (join a member) so many probably j
the money to do so. Search the archives or Google them. Otherwise unless they are offering some outragous pay over such as over .12 cpl, then I would not worry about it and go for it.
RadGuy, come join my family,

I'm sorry if I'm laughing about your relative but with 3 different religions in 2 sisters and my mom, I totally understand. 


The last time my BIL came to a family get together (he is a quasi-minister), he was talking about how we were all going to hell because we have never spoken in tongues.  My mom couldn't help it and a big gawk came out of her mouth.  All eyes were on her as she is not known to hold her tongue.  She looked him straight in the eye and said, "well, you know, what if you're wrong and I when I die I get to heaven and I'm having a good time, then you die and go to heaven....will you be just as excited on that day to see me as you are today?  I bet you'll be wishing you had gone to hell instead at the thought of spending eternity with ME!"


Food and beverages spewed over the entire table.


Each of my sister's sons  told me I was going to hell because #1 I wore shorts, #2 I cut my hair and #3 I wore makeup.  I sweetly told each of them I'd be the hottest looking chick in hell if that were the case   Now, I'm the "cool" aunt they all love to come to visit.  Lighten up and enjoy a little bit of witty banter!


Join a church? Seriously. I have a mom's group through the sm
church where we get together for lunch once a week amongst many other activities within our church. Fairly large church. Couldn't survive without it.
Did you see where they were asked to join churches?
How can they ignore a question like that? "Would you like to join our church?" Suppose they could just say no, which seems a little rude as to why not exactly. I can see her dilemma.
Have a friend who wants to join our group but
I forgot exactly what I did to get to chat in the first place. Can someone walk me through it so I can let them know? Thanks!
You could join a study group through sm
AHDI, but there is no radiology-specific CMT credential.  In fact, I took the test within the past year and there are hardly any rad-specific questions on it.
Hope California would join the two states
doing the protest soon!!!
Join the club on being confused. With turning us

things are charged, billed, or anything any more.


It just seems like they wanted me to work for nothing to clean up ASR reports.  It was pitiful what they wanted, considering what they needed me to clean up.  I could have typed it faster and better using my word expanders.


i agree... Maybe I will join MENSA, just for the companionship
no shame in having a good IQ, when all the dust settles. Go for it MT!
Regarding AAMT, is it wise to join? Opinions please...

have been an MT for almost four years but have not joined as of yet.  Would like to hear pros and cons.  TIA.


Funny... can I join the Bon Voyage party with a few of my own? Seriously though
it's so very hard to just leave a blank, we are so so so anal retentive in this profession, so beat down most of the time, because everyone wants perfection all the time (impossible) we have to lighten up on ourselves, take a deep breathe and realize that sometimes a "blank" is the best you can do.
They were saying that MT Stars could see (sm)
the message. Supposedly they sent one to an MT using the Reply By Email function and were told not to mention other boards that could be in competition with this one. Since the info was sent as reply by email, they warned that evidently that's not so private here. ??
MT Stars has one

Thanks MT Stars!

THANKS MT STARS!!!
Wow!  This is great!  Thanks MTStars & MetroScript for making this happen!!!
Thank you, MT Stars!!!
I needed one!
Join as in moral support, call me and I will be there with my name on the line.
I have called the attorneys and given any information they may need including my name, phone, e-mail address and home address to contact me if and when I can officially become part of the lawsuit. For now, I have joined in the solidarity of supporting the original MQMTs which is better than them just standing out there alone with no support whatsoever. So if the attorneys go to them and say hey, we got a list of 1000 names who have phoned us to join in support of your efforts it's a whole lot better than no one responding the attorneys who asked MQMTs to call in their complaints.

WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?
maybe he's thinking of a plan to join forces with winner of HOH?
The thing with Kaysar is he wants to do everything perfect and wants to win so he fights to win HOH even if Janelle would not put him up for evictions. That's why people like Kaysar.
Join the crowd. No it isnt just you. Is that what they tell you. That seems to be MQ favorite line
that they tell their robots to tell us. Its just you. Bull. You aint alone my dear. Just cant figure where the lines went.
