Unprofessional but funny thought, sm

wouldn't it be wild if there was a Tourette's syndrome for transcriptionists, and we could just insert whatever random thought or opinion we had on the patient/dictator.


I'm in the middle of a patient's social history and the doc dictates his occupation, and then in the PE he says he's dignified looking.  I mean he's obvious very impressed by his social stature and I would love to say that!


 


 


Spheris is most unprofessional.
The recruiter had a barking dog in the background and was not very open about answering my questions.  Sorry to say, but in my opinion, they are very, very last on my list. 
Very unprofessional IMO to question this.
Just because you dont hear it often doesn't mean you need to find a rule in order not to transcribe it. Totally ridiculous.
No, what is unprofessional is not questioning...
something you are unsure about.
That woman is unprofessional & hopefully she won't be there long (sm)
Since she was hired as a temp and is obviously very unprofessional, sounds like maybe she won't be there for long. Hopefully, for you anyway! It sounds like you have a nice job that you like so don't let someone like that ruin a good thing for you. What goes around comes around, so my bet is she'll be gone before you know it. Best of luck to you!
Another silly, unprofessional response.

What does this prove except that you, as an employee, are small-minded and mean-tempered. I'm betting with an attidue like that, you don't get the raises you "think" you deserve.


The offer is what it is and the poster has to either decide to take it or leave it. Your response is just ridiculous.


Personal insults are unprofessional. nm
......
I think that is very unprofessional for a medical record. nm

I too think this is very unprofessional. We at MDI-MD may be a littleon edge to be out of work..sm
to say the least and many of us are probably going to be forced to leave a company we have enjoyed due to that fact, but never at any time have I been treated unfairly or unkindly there. We should all act like the professionals we claim to be.
it WAS unprofessional; probably meant as a cliche, but still offensive to some - nm

I find a lot of UNPROFESSIONAL people in this profession..
This has happened to me several times.  Going so far as to send me programs and such and when contacting them  that I am ready to go, never hear from them again.
Management is ridiculous, extremely unprofessional s/m
in my opinion. There are many places out there that are better than this one. The manager is rude and has no idea how to manage or motivate. As for the accounts, I had a ton of ESL, but ESL doesn't bother me at all, so I can't help you there.
I agree. I think it shows compassion and nothing unprofessional about that. nm

Yes, venting generalizations on a message board is about as unprofessional
as a business owner can get. I'm glad I DID NOT apply with this company! Sounds too high maintenance, high stress, negative, dictatorial and critical for me.
It was very unprofessional for the dictating physician to include that statement.
I have never come across such a thing myself, but I wouldn't hesitate to type it.
You're funny. Ignorant, but funny.
I don't live in NYC and I don't work out of NYC and I make wayyyyy more than $23 an hour, SandyGIRL.

I'm an employee at the largest national and I make anywhere from $58K to $64K a year.

You don't have to believe anyone but you show your ignorance by telling those of us who make that money that we're full of it.

Hahaha
Sorry, that was not an ASR funny, just a regular ole dictation funny. LOL! nm
.
I think it's unprofessional not to pay..I simply state, if you don't bill, I bill directly...

This has only happened once, and I had my check cut same day.  This is business and I will not beg someone to give me my money.  I simply stated it as a fact. 


What a funny, funny reply. LOL
You are a genius! I am sorry you are ugly and fat. I feel bad for you, but what I can I do to help? Go to a plastic surgeon.
now that's funny, true, but very funny

too funny

girlyman hater, I think you are trolling us here.


the country singer type I have no idea about, but a smart humble guy... science is a plus... bein' good lookin' can't hurt, but I dont want a sweaty singin' cowboy.


*just kidding, but this is how you sound.


 


funny
When I first started I thought I heard "bologna amputation" instead of below-knee amputation.

thats funny
That is funny, you are right!! Daycares are better than boarding schools.    And I also agree that not everyone is cut out to be a stay at home mom.  On the other hand, not everyone is cut out to be a daycare provider and that is what the good parents have to worry about. 
OH HOW FUNNY
Thank you for the best laugh I have had all week!!!!!!  I am cracking up!!!!!!
SO FUNNY
I don't even work for MQ.  you think only some people can use BIG LETTERS in their posts?  CRACK ME UP!  I am just another MT who is TIRED of hearing all the constant complaining.  THANKS
That's funny! THank you!!
.
Now that's funny!
ROTFLMAO. Hope my husband doesn't catch me.
Way too funny! I had one doc that said:

Patient states, "I feel like s--t!"  I called my boss and said "I'm sorry, I cant type that in there." 


I used to work for an old cranky country doc that actually dictated the chief complaint as:  "Doc my b--ls are killing me."  I told him when I turned in the completed report that I had changed the chief complaint to:  Patient complains of testicular pain.  He just laughed and said, "That's why I hired ya!"


oh, funny!!!

Those, too! What's really funny is when

you confront an MT who is putting exactly 200 extra spaces at the end of each and every report and they are just DUMBFOUNDED that they are there. They have no clue as to how they could be getting there. So it stops. Then, before you know it, they are there again. Sorry, but they aren't magically putting themselves there. It's a macro, sweetums, and you're happy to be messing with "the man." Typically the same people will do it at the end of paragraphs, too, but of course with fewer spaces. Most of the time no one can see it, no one would think to look for it, but they're there.


The company I worked with called it "creating margin," aka the MT getting more money and happily shafting the facility that gets the transcription bill. Were the MTs told to not do that? Nope. They were not. Shame on the MT, and shame on the MTSOs who condone this behavior.


funny

Last year I made 56,000.  This year I stand to make slightly more.  I have my own accounts and am self-employed.  Also, I do quite a bit of pathology transcription locally.  I have done rad also in my time.  I am getting ready to get my CMT.  You don't have to go to school for this.  As a matter of fact, many that do go to school know less than I do, as a lot of schools don't teach what they should these days.  It is just a basic fact.  Whether you go to school or not doesn't make you a good MT.  It is your work ethic and level of committment and actual experience on the job. 


Also, you sound so immature in your posts like you are really mad because someone can be successful at MT w/o going to school.  How silly is that? 


funny you should ask -
It all started with MQ's chapstick (got rid of it).  Then, I tried some short of Chap stick - with extra moisture, worked for a while, then back to what it was after MQ's chap stick.  Think I will try what I was using before this all happened or plain Vasolene and see how that works and lots of water.   I am thinking my lips might be reacting to the sun block in the chapsticks.  I just got scared when I read malignant or premalignant condition - WOW!
And what is TOO funny is. . .

The idiots in the SUVs that have 4-wheel drive that pass you doing 70 in a blizzard.  Oh yeah, like it isn't SNOWING!  Hello? And your 4-wheel drive is designed to get you slowly out of mud, snow, etc., not race down the highway in a snowstorm.


I used to work 20 miles away down a major highway (45 mph speed limit).  I saw a total of 12 vehicles off the road in the snow last year in one week. All of them were 4-wheel drive SUVs.  Some had flipped over and landed roof side down.  Fortunately nobody had serious injuries, but these SUVs would just fly by my little car and leave me in total "white out".


I still don't get it how people who buy these hugh monsters think they are oblivious to snow.  It's slippery even if you're walking or driving a military issue Hummer.


Too funny... maybe he got bit (nm)

ER - You are just too darn funny.
What's funny ....
is the petty crap that these "holier than thou" people harp on and on about and then tell others how childish they are. Makes you just sit back and shake your head and say PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH!
You are so funny!
What makes you think because there are 2 people defending Medquist that we must be one and the same? How smallminded of you! Not everyone hates MQ, get it through your fat skull.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE FUNNY
I read your post while listening to Dr."Betyacanttranscribethis!" He is an ESL and cardiac to boot. (Why is it always that way?)Thanks for the chuckle.
too funny!

You gave me a good laugh.  Thanks for that!!!!


 



I really did think they were funny
You have to admit, this board is lousy without them. They kept the emotions high! I bet you MTstars will not have the turn out they have had the last few days with all the drama that has been going on - GUARANTEED! They were the life of the party - and this party has done and fizzled out!
It's really not funny, if
you want to be humerous, there are many more less offensive ways to do it. Even if everyone on this site is fat and ugly, so-- What? People don't want to read that. It would be greatly appreciated by most who visit this board if you would stop doing this.
very funny...nm

FUNNY!!!!
That's about it!!
that is funny
smart and a sense of humor, too! You have made me laugh after looking at my "in" bin and found there is nothing to do. LOL
That is funny!

This is too funny. We are really bad as well,
but not usually as nice a place. We do tend to eat out at a little local diner a couple times a week as neither of us feels like cooking. I'm blessed that he will share that chore with me as I usually work until 6 p.m.

And YES, tax time is coming and we'll all have to suck it up a little! Although, this year will be better than last for me as I nagged until hubby graciously (with several years of nagging)changed the tax they take out of him at work for my benefit.
Now THAT was just way too funny! sm

I will never again be able to use my crockpot without calling it my little potassium.


Weird thing is, I made chili in my big potassium last night too!


Don't feel bad, the other day I was going over some notes and I read where I put that the patient had had a large "bowel" of cereal for breakfast.


Now I find myself asking my kids, "You want that on a plate or in a bowel." They think I'm gross.
