| No, we are very strict aboutPosted By: tia on 2005-11-29In Reply to: For one thing, no car until she gets a job AND EARNS your trust and the car. - tough love
 
 what she wears and I buy most of her clothes and she wears a uniform to school.  I tell her it is the signals she sends out.  Again, she is a beautiful, talented girl (and I am not just saying that because I'm her mother).  I think she has even lost some very GOOD friends because of her actions.

 No, you are not the only one.  I am pretty strict with my two also.
 In bed by 10:30 pm, only 1 hour on the computer other than homework, and curfew, absolutely! 12 midnight on weekends, not allowed out on school nights unless they have sports, and I usually attend them, so I know where they are.
 
 I say, if they don't like me then I am doing a great job as a parent.  I am not their friend, I am their mother.  When they get older, mature, and settle down with a family, then I will be their friend and always their mother!
 
 If have found parents who are popular with their kids, are trying way too hard to be their friend and not their guiding and loving parent!
 
 
 What does .06 per STRICT line mean?
 
   Very strict rules for woman
 from what I have heard.  Make sure you check out the culture there pertaining to women.
 I knew the MTSO would be more strict
 
 I know they have to be to be competative, one of the reasons I took the job was for a challenge.   I didn't know they were be quite so nitpicky.  Welcome to the real world of MTSOs.  I have worked at the hospital for 8 years.  They are very laid back.  They really don't care as long as you don't totally slaughter it, as in giving a patient a balogna amputation instead of a below  knee amputation.  The MTSO doesn't pay as well and the benifits are not as good but I have learned a lot from them.   
 The hospital is sending me home temporarily until the weather clears. Maybe I can convience my boss I can be much more productive here than there but I doubt it.  She has a power trip.  Companies have some strict exp rules...sm
 I have the problem of less than 2 years exp.  Also I speacialize in clinic general surgery so they say you don't have acute care exp so they don't want you.  Sometimes it sucks when nobody is willing to give you a chance.
 The same thing is about to happen to my friend.  The hospital she has worked at for 10 years is about to most likely outsource to Spheris.  There goes her job unless something changes.
 in the case of STRICT VERBATIM accounts
 one should NEVER add extra verbiage -- it can, however, be altered as previously suggested to:  Demerol 50 mg . . .
 
 May sound silly but strict focus
 will help you proof as you transcribe...  Take short breaks fairly often to keep this from being too intense.  I sometimes silently "say" (repeat to myself) what I'm hearing to make sure I "see" it on screen...
 Word Macro to count Lines Strict inside
 
 Hi, 
 The solutions others gave are good, but if I just needed to get the number of lines with typing (and don't need an invoice or a report), I'd use a Word macro. 
 The other solutions offered have this drawback: If the body of your document contains tables, the count Word gives you is vastly inflated, for Word counts each cell in that table as a line. This is not what the eye sees, and becomes problematic when you try to justify such to your client. 
 Below is a macro for counting what we at Emmaus call Lines Strict. (i.e. Lines with typing on them, vs Lines Extended that includes the blank lines). 
 To use it, copy from Public Sub through End Sub, and paste it into your macros along with your other macros. Easiest way of doing this is (after you have copied the appropriate lines): 
 1. Click Tools | Macros, and select an existing macro.  
 2. Click the Edit button.  
 3. Once the Visual Basic Editor opens, press Ctrl+End to move to the bottom. 
 4. Paste the clipboard contents.  
 5. Click File | Compile Normal. (If you've pasted things that don't belong, it won't compile.) 
 6. Click File | Close and Return to MS Word. 
 Merry Christmas!vJoe

 OOPS! I looked at the HTML code after I pasted the code into the editor on this board, and it added things that when pasted into the Visual Basic Editor in Word will not compile. Here's the code if you want to retype it, but pasting won't work. If you send me an email, I'll attach the code into a .txt document, and you won't have any problems.  vjoet@attglobal.net
