yes I know, I was agreeing with you. - nm

Certainly agreeing with you too.
I have had to listen to more than 1 doctor sit on the toilet and do his business and it was GROSS!!  I had to listen to one singing when he thought no one was listening.  I listened to one have a very private conversation with the office manager (and it was not about work!)  I had one fall asleep and start snoring.  Finally, the one who had just had twins and was burning the candle at both ends was actually talking in his sleep while dictating.  My company had to call the administrator and let them listen to it (talk about endangering the patient). I think I have heard it all.  Nothing surprises me anymore and I am sure someone can probably top these.
that's what i mean. you are agreeing with your own thoughts?

in my church the preacher makes statements and the congregation says amen.  he doesn't amen himself making himself in agreement with himself.  if you don't agree with yourself, why bother to make the statement?  just sayin....


Ha! I was just agreeing with you below! Great
minds sure think alike...
I am so agreeing with your post and here is why
I do straight some but VR most of the time. I do not think possible to have the speed of say 600 or 700 with the platform I use because the audio cannot be set that fast. I keep mine on fast forward so with almost perfect dictators for an hour might have done say 550 but I am saying perfect for an hour and you know how often that happens.
dude, I'm agreeing with you

I found nothing wrong with your original post.  I almost posted a response myself saying that you need to talk to your QA people because every company uses their own method of putting blanks in, but someone else had already said it.


I just think Ella was responding to the wrong message, but I'm certainly not here to defend another poster.


You have no idea how I am agreeing with you
This job would not be half as bad if they only had medical jargon. I could put up with that. I absolutely hate it when I have someone who is smacking and sounds like they are eating and swallowing while dictating. I did not allow that at my table and now have to listen to this mess. Just down right rude. Why do you have to collect a mouthful of saliva before taking a big gulp and then letting out some sound but not really a burp? I hope my kids learned better manners than these were taught. Someone fell down on their job.
Whoops! Was agreeing with post by sm!
:)
Agreeing with Happy, sounds just like
the jack person.
PS..arrogant to say the least

Arrogant?? Not at all. sm
How does giving an honest response to a direct question regarding income equate arrogance?

I'm amazed each and everytime I read some of these posts that people can be so hateful, bitter, catty, and jealous.

I hate transcription and am totally burned out. I do just enough to get by. If another MT is typing their fingers off and making a comfortable living, I say "Good for them!" How can you begrudge someone who works hard for being successful?? Would it have made you feel better about yourself if she had posted that she is struggling to make ends meet and can't feed her family? Good grief people.
You talk about QA being arrogant, BUT
You post all the time and it is very visible how much you are actually arrogant. You have such a terrible attitude and nasty mouth. Even as the abbreviation you used it is uncalled for. Your opinion is NOT the only one that matters. You are one person i would just LOVE to meet in person. I would be the first to put you in your place right then and there!
I know that. You're the arrogant one here.
Why would I want to be a doctor anyways?  I have my reasons for being in MT.  Direct patient contact and long hours don't fit into the life plan.  Nobody here has to explain themselves to you.  The truth is that nobody even likes you because you're such a nasty, mean person.  That's why you're here verbally abusing strangers on the Internet.  Have you kicked any dogs lately?
Too arrogant for me and I think he prefers men. nm
 
I agree. You are arrogant.

I have no issues at all. I'm just saying that the OP is being condescending and arrogant.
And if there are any issues going on, they seem to be coming from a person who needs to analyze any posts in diagreement with their opinion as if that disagreeing poster must be crazy and that simply isn't the case.
No I don't think doctors are arrogant and inconsiderate as a whole.
Because they don't dictate the way we like isn't a personal thing against us. Some have skills with dictation that others don't. Like public speaking, some can, some can't. Doctors do have lives and problems and patients outside of trying to dictate patient records.
It's how incredibly arrogant this administration is!
How can you trust anything that comes from anyone in this adminstration's mouth?  Starting at the very top!!  I can NOT wait until his dictatorship is over.  I am really praying that the Democrats get back in office.  I can not stand the Bush administration's air of superiority.  I don't appreciate being made to look foolish on the world stage.  Bush and his cronies are an embarrassment to this country.  I can not wait until their regime ends!!
Gee, I dunno. Maybe since you find Americans fat and arrogant is a start
so we're stuck with your nasty ol' hair-ball self
I hope you realize not all Americans are this nasty and arrogant.

Not nearly as arrogant and inconsiderate and downright exploitative as most MT companies n/m
nm
I personally don't. I think she's arrogant, pompous, and in general, a big mouth who's ful
Aren't you sorry you asked? (LOL!)
you sound arrogant to me. "unfortunate family members?"
like they can't take care of themselves without your noble gifts. Maybe you should be reading some books on codependence.
Please explain what was snippy, rude, arrogant, or insulting in her post.
Sorry, but that's the attitude YOU put forward.  You're the one ranting about not being able to find quality MTs.  You use the same nickname and the same style as someone who posted the same topic a few days ago.  I think you knew that would incite a riot.  Maybe the MTs should start an MTSO bashing post and explain the real reason some MTSOs can't find decent MTs.  You reap what you sow.  If you're only offering newbie rates, you're only going to get newbie applicants.  Maybe it's YOU that is the reason you can't find quality MTs.
Do you think doctors are generally arrogant and make a lot of money and so inconsiderate of us?
I had been listening to several breast onco dictations by the same female dictator who kept on yawning that it was so annoying...made me want to post a complaint to a forum of mother MDs (though I was not quite sure where I would post it) which I previously run into...

I then saw under the General Discussion board this thread:

http://www.mommd.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php/ubb/get_topic/f/1/t/000236/p/1

That made me feel like reaching out to the sleepy doctor who was probably not being paid for that time she takes to dictate about her patients (she apparently let them pile up before dictating) and just let her head rest on my lap (I am a female). Maybe she did not have enough sleep, or not even enough time to enjoy her family...
Excuse me? Arrogant for buying a house for a family member that was sm
about to become homeless? I think not. You sound like my ungrateful, jealous sister in law who can't stand anyone else to succeed. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. They were unfortunate at the time and we bailed them out! Ask them, they will tell you where they would be had my husband and I not put our credit on the line for them.
Mary Kay all the way
Hi. I have used (and sold) Mary Kay since my early 20's. (I am now in my 40s) I have strayed from the path to other brands twice, and my face did not like them. So, I always always come back to Mary Kay. The newest and greatest is our microderm abrasion set! I SWEAR I HAVE NEW SKIN
Mary Kay

Skin care is so important....especially after 30!!!  I love Mary Kay's Time Wise Cleanser and Moisturizer and the Microdermabrasion is unlike any other on the market!!  I wouldn't want to be without it - EVER!!  It's a staple in my budget!  I highly recommend it for every skin type!!   It's GREAT!  Lisa


Mary Kay
I don't know where you get your information, but Mary Kay DOES NOT test products on animals!

Way to go Mary! Yum yum......


Mary.....(sm)
I have the exact same problem as you right now. Because of it, I am not having any success with installing the latest version of McAfee. It's actually stopping me from putting the anti-virus software on my computer. I was just wondering if you were able to solve your problem? I have no idea how to get rid of it?!!
Anyone know where Mary Patterson (of YOG)

Mary Kay is the bestest!
I've used it since I was an early teen (Mother sold it). She started me young because my older sister had horrible acne (it worked miracles on her). In my entire life I've had MAYBE 5 pimples :)

I'm 50 now, and looked way younger than my years ... until I went through treatment, which aged me, but I still look pretty good for a 50 year old.

I also tried a couple of other skin cares (VERY temporarily). My face itched, turned red, etc. I came straight back to MK, and won't stray again.
There's another one similar to Mary Kay... sm
called BeautiControl...talk about expensive!! On the other hand, I love Pampered Chef and most of their products, but can't stand some of the pushy consultants who think you just "need to have a party!"  I understand that they make a living doing what they do, but give me a break!
Congrats Mary! :-) nm

Au Contraire, Mary...
I've SEEN voice recognition, through Escription, at its finest. It is most definitely not a fantasy on the other poster's part. The technology is amazing but, yes, it does continue to require human overseers for minor cleanup even when working at its best. These dictators were so good, even Escription could detect the subtle differences in, for example, Xanax and Zantac and various other sound-alike drugs.

The blessing and the curse of the technology is, it can only be as good as the humans dictating. We've all seen the deterioration in the quality of dictators, particularly over the past 3-5 years. While most of us tend to complain about sloppy dictators, indecisive 'transcriptionist, go back up' throughout the entire report, ESLs, etc., those are the MTs saving grace. With those types of dictators, the technology will never be able to fully render us obsolete.

In a perfect world with near-perfect dictators and the ability to edit their own work, I sadly predict we would all be looking for a new career within 5 years.

The technology is there and, in the right scenario, it's frighteningly accurate. Luckily, the all-too-human dictators are holding it back from rendering us obsolete.

With all due respect for your opinion, I must disagree. I've seen voice recognition, through Escription, at its finest, at optimal utilization. It is most definitely not a fantasy on the other poster's part. The technology is amazing but, yes, it does continue to require human overseers for minor cleanup even when working at its best. These dictators were so good, even Escription could detect the subtle differences in, for example, Xanax and Zantac and various other sound-alike drugs.

There you go again,Mary, answering
tsk, tsk, tsk...


Right, Mary...Keep telling yourself that

Who are you calling mary?
I AM NOT MARY!   There you go again, thinking you are so darn smart.  Well, you got the wrong person this time.
Exactly. That's how Mary Kay hooks women-SM
by showering them with positive attention, atta girl, you go girl.  It is unnecessary and we are not dogs.
Maybe you remember as Nannay Mary on

i agree with Mary Kay prod's
i started using them because i complimented several georgeous-skinned older women and every one of them used Mary Kay. I was a consultant for 10 years, and still use the products. My mom uses Oil of Olay. Maybe its as good, but i am a believer in Mary Kay.

p.s. men typically poo-poo such notions -- nature of the beast i guess. This is very personal, its YOUR skin, so YOU should make the decision with no guilt!
I cannot use Mary Kay because they test on animals - sm
But I do use Estee Lauder and Oil of Olay. I consulted three dermatologists on getting Botox and they all said no way for me because I have no WRINKLES around my eyes or forehead ... at 39 years of age!
Have you had the frozen Mary B's biscuits?

Mary Morkin's list

Check out http://www.mtdaily.com/abbvs.txt   I got Mary Morken's list from there.  I believe there are 13,000 of them listed. 


Also see http://www.mtdaily.com?mt1/abbv2.html   That should give you even more links.


I'm referring to a printout I did in 2005 so I hope these are still good sites.  I incorporated the lists into my own.  Some abbreviations I like, some I don't and have changed once I developed my own system, but this will give you an idea just what you can do.  But do get the book so you will know how to THINK in short form and come up with your own system.  It took me a while to see how my brain worked and I've made modifications but boy do I depend on them to produce!


I'm sure Mary is real; why the exclamation?
