Have you heard this word on CNN? NO! It is an obscenity, and there are plenty of awful words SM
You can search and find just about anything in print if you look hard enough. No newscaster on CNN would utter this filth. Obscenities are not allowed on MT Stars and this word is obscene. Your example is flawed. I have no problem hearing and typing words related to the human body when spoken by a physician to document a patient's care. That is a far cry from this nasty little "headline." NO ONE should defend this racial epithet and no one needs this little lesson in netiquette. Shame on you and OP if you are not the same one.
Don't you just love it when dictators make up words? .....
This doctor said, loud and clear, "meningismatic" for meningitic. !!! This particular dictator is also constantly making up words. It's actually kind of entertaining at times--only when it's obvious what he really means. If not, and I have to leave a blank, I'm not exactly laughing......
thanks for the kind words - it does help...:)
I know lots of places are hiring, but I don't have enough experience for most of them and am afraid to jump from the frying pan into the fire....
Thank you for your kind words...
I am hopeful too. I really try to be good on any promises I make. But as I said earlier, I would have probably taken it easier if I would have just been fired that day rather than think things were fine and keep having work given to me for another week and then after that, when I wasn't having a problem with TAT, get fired. To me, if someone didn't fulfill their promise, I would have just ended the relationship right there. I would not have gone on for another week while I got my ducks in a row. That is almost as bad as I what I did. All she did was lie to me and keep strining me along and won't even discuss this at all. Is that right?
Thank you for your kind words.....
Your kind words are much apprciated, and they made me smile.
I feel sorry for this poster, because I know what she's going through. Nothing will rip a mother's heart out faster than a child, but you know there are many times that there is just nothing we can do. To keep your sanity, you just have to go with the flow and let it go. Realize when you're fighting a battle that you cannot win. The sad, but true, facts.
Have a happy day.....
Thank you for the kind words!

Thank you for the kind words.
I'm sure he will be fine, it just really upset me. Thanks again.
Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate it. nm

Thank you for your kind words. Everyone has their way
of giving and however people choose to give is their choice. Some give through church, some through the Salvation Army, by giving food, etc. and that's great. What we are doing with MTStars Santa's House is an annual thing. Every year, people give and the result is gifts for less fortunate children. That's the bottom line. We offer a way for work at home folks to not only give but have chances at winning some pretty neat prizes, too. Our sponsors and companies give generously every year to make this happen and MTStars plans several months in advance in readiness for the holiday season so that the poor will have something in their hands this time of year. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas to all of you. Administrator
Thanks for the kind words...sm
Well hopefully things will pick up just a little. I don't want to be so busy I can't have a life just a little more than I am now.
The owner never has come to get them. My husband says the guy is deer hunting every day after work and doesn't have time for the dogs. If I made him come get them they would probably starve cause I don't think he would feed them half the time. So I have just been taking care of them. For my kindness, he did give me one of his registered females he paid good money for. She is the cutest beagle ever. She has a perfect little beagle face. She should have been a show dog. Her name is Ashley and he knew how much I loved her. He said she is yours for all you have done for me. He was going to sell her and I was sad because I loved her. I said I wish I could afford her I would buy her. He said you have helped me out so much so she is yours free. He said he would give me her papers.
I do love dogs. Everyone wants me to take care of their dogs cause I treat them like children. I am a true animal lover. I have the softest heart for animals and especially dogs. Dogs have a special place in my heart.
Thank you, I will pass along your kind words to him.
Thank you for taking the time to write back. It is really helpful and I appreciate your kind words. Thank you for the prayers! I will pass along your kind words to him. Bless you and have a great day.
Your kind words are so appreciated.
I sincerely appreciate your so very kind words and you are definitely doing the most important thing, I feel - praying. I do believe in prayer. :) Thank you so very, very much.
I put my life in God's hands each and every day and have for many years now. :) That does not go to say that I am still not scared though for sure. :)
Thanks for all your kind words and suggestions, NM

Thanks so much for your kind words, Ms. Indigo
Yes, today I have felt more serene with my choice. I think a lot of it had to do with me pinning down what was bugging me. I know we can't control the job market or the economy. But I guess I just prefer the idea of being an employee, having been one for so long. And you are right, accepting a situation and making the best of it, like working later in the day and having lunch with our kids is a great remedy to cheer one up, and working later to have the line count is fine with me. I have always been able to deal with situations. I just did not understand, I guess, the nature of IC and thinking it was 100% freedom. Well, it isn't because the pitfall is there does not have to be any guarantees for work at least with the company where I am an IC. Anyway, thanks everyone too for helping me think this one out loud. Working at home, I miss the water cooler, and appreciated the time everyone took to give me different points of view. It truly helped.
Thanks for the kind words and reassurance. sm
I think the rehab service people are pushing me because the money has already been spent and they have to justify their jobs. I feel bad about that, but have to think of myself. I also think they really don't know exactly what an MT's job entails. I just can't see their logic in having me give up a job I already have in this economy. I also told them I didn't want to be tied down to the area I currently live in and eventually would like to move. They had a hard time understanding that this job is totally portable.
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement...sm
Yes I have complained for a few times on here. Sorry. Didn't realize it was such a bother. I thought this was a place to come and vent your fustrations. Guess I was wrong.
I have not left yet because like I said I don't have 2 years exp, which most companies I have applied with want or I don't have the acute care that most I applied with want. That is why I haven't gotten another job. I wondered if anyone else had gone through this experience before. Like I said I am at wits end. I don't know what to do and I guess I was just venting. I'll keep trying to look for another job. All I can do. Maybe in 6 months when I have 2 years I can luck up and get one. So you see right now I can't control my own life. If I could I would have another job.
Help! Have face-to-face interview for at-home hospital job tomorrow and ....SM
I want to ask the most comprehensive questions I can so as to make the best decision possible. I work for a small national right now, pretty happy but would like better benefits, especially more affordable and better insurance. I already know this hospitals pays .09 cpl and .11 if you do more than 1200 lines per day. It's been so long since I've been interviewed in person. I need you guys to help me make a list of questions to ask so that I can just get it all down on paper and make sure I'm not missing anything. I know they use ChartScript and Lanier and that they provide the computer. What else exactly should I ask?
I came across my best friend online, but I have yet to meet her face to face sm
I have known her for several years. We talk a couple of times a day. I have never seen her face to face, but I could not live without her love and support and she feels the same.
I have given my number out several times recently. I have yet to come across a serial killer. They are all MTs. Without exception, they have all been wonderful. In three cases, we are all working on friendship. In one case, I think we will be close in time. We are very similar in many ways and I just think she is wonderful.
I have dated on line and we were together as a couple in person for a year. It was a great experience.
I think we could all stand to learn from the Amish and how they are handling this awful, awful sm
tragedy. I read on a website 2 seperate stories of how the Amish are dealing with this. Yes, they are sad, but they believe that they will (and I do too) see their children again and that they are in a much better place. They have reached out to the gunman's family, visiting the killer's wife and children and offering them forgiveness. I also read that they want to "help" the gunman's family monetarily through a Mennonite fund if they need help! The article contrasted the Amish to other school tragedies where lawsuits were filed and death threats were made against the family members of the ones who committed the murders!
They are such graceful, loving people. Different, yet. Weird? In a way. But you have to admit that without electricity or vehicles to get them around, they obviously live a faith that most of us could only wish we had inside of us. I am a Christian. If a madman entered my children's school and killed them, could I offer forgiveness to their family? I doubt it. Could I weep in peace and silence knowing that I would someday see my children again? Maybe. But I would be a wretched mess and everyone around me would KNOW my suffering.
I am learning a great deal about the Amish through this. I used to live near PA where seeing the Amish was a regular occurrence. I thought they were so crazy and weird.....But, it was my own ignorance that made those judgments. They are wonderful, Godly people. I admire them more and more as I continue to read how they are dealing with this awful event!
Lots of 'em, but use a Lab Words, Sted's Ortho/Rehab Words, & Tessier's Surgical Words most
s
Give notice face to face and (sm)
briefly explain the circumstances. In the same conversation ask if it's ok to use the company as a reference and possibly provide a "To Whom It May Concern" letter of recommendation. Then follow up with a brief letter. A good reference goes a long way, even as an IC!
Have a face-to-face talk with your son!
Tell your son you love him and care for him, but you are just not happy about his soon to be wife/lesbian calling his mother/soon-to-be mother-in-law these nasty things. Tell your son that if he wants any part of his family then he needs to talk to his girlfriend and tell her that she needs to respect his mother or things will sure be hell down the long road. You know how it is when you do not get along with in-laws. Sounds like your son had a lot of communicating to do or you may not respect him anymore.
face to face demeanor is always different...sm
guess they figure if you can't see 'em, they can be themselves.
I know their demeanor is different face to face,
but if they treat the medical record with such little regard, I really wonder what kind of ethics they have regarding the medical care given to their patients.
Not always. Tongue stumblers. New dictators. Speedy and lazy dictators.
D
?? Bad dictators are bad dictators regardless of their mother language.
wonder when people will just get over it and do what they can and move on.
You'll need a lab words book and maybe the Derm and Immunology Words..nm
s
Stedmans Med $ Surgical Equip words, Path and Lab words, and Tessiers Surgical Word book (3rd
edition). I never buy drug books anymore. Waist of money in my opinion. New drugs come out so often, it's best to use the web.
The Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words is probably my most used book and then the Lab Words book. GL! nm

Egg on Face...
I do apologize - I guess I was in my "MT Mode" and not my "Human Being Mode" when I posted that - all I could think about was OSi, the MT company. Sorry about that and hope things work out!
we have to face that MT is not the
same as it used to be. Five years ago or so you would have been able to get what you stated but now it is nearly impossible unless you obtain your own account. I have been doing this for 16 years and I have seen that the MT pay keeps on declining. I am looking into another profession. It has just become too stressful to try to make a decent living on the pay any more and just tired of the whole thing with offshoring, etc. Take care
The face
My word, if I had a face like that I would sell eye liner or something. Maybe they mean some people type with their looks? Hmm. I really think it is an unprofessional ad.
Let's face it
Things are going to change. We don't know to what degree, but I'm pretty sure jobs will be cut and consensed, so you can bet many of us will feel it in some way.
I think our whole society is going to go through a major restructure; there's just no way around it.
Obviously not for his face, but maybe his hands?
x
Jen, seriously, the face of MT is changing. sm
Get that degree. Trust me on this. Yes, it's nice sitting home in jammies with the kids. I did it a lot of years, but I made way more money then than now. Things are changing drastically and fast in this field. Get the degree.
We might as well face it, we are being taken over by other countries, thanks to our
government. You have got to read this article at
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080604/ap_on_re_us/domestic_workers_rights;_ylt=AuYJ4gKnmseAW_rqGopWh.FH2ocA
Domestic workers sue, lobby, organize for workplace rights -THESE ARE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS PEOPLE!
I just want to crawl in a hole and DIE! I am so worried for my children. Soon, the US of A will be owned, run and operated by other countries totally!
UNBELIEVABLE!
I did the face lift and did for myself only
I had huge bags under my eyes and my jouls were drooping. I did it once and then about 10 years later and both times thrilled with the outcome. I have yet to have anyone say they hate it, oh no in fact most of the girls I graduated with totally taken with how, what, when and the price. I also had other things done as in tummy tuck and that again was what I wanted. I please myself and my husband is also pleased with his new lady. I am thinking this year possibly finding out more about the thread lift. I do want to enhance some but not a total face lift this year. I say goody for anyone who wants to improve on their looks or how they feel about their own self.
I’m a sucker for a furry face. I currently
have 2 Maltese, 2 Pugs, 1 Lhasa, 1 Yorkie/Chinese Crested mix (we think), 1 Rott/Pit mix and getting another Maltese from the animal shelter this week.
I am sorry you have this situation to face. It makes
me so upset that this can happen with vets and their costs. I won't even go into that tirade of mine....I actually had to put down my best friend as I did NOT have the $$ even remotely for this barrage of testing just to even guess why she was seizing at 15 years old. I know, she was old, but the vet estimated something near $5K to $10K for a "complete work up". At her age, I declined. Its so weird the timing of your post. Just yesterday my sweet husband was able to give me a modest diamond ring and wedding band - we've been together for 30+ years; however, I had to sell my original set off to pay for emergencies about 3 years ago.I acted like it didn't bother me, but it did. You know - I put on a brave face for the kids and him. And he did, too. It wasn't the diamond or the $$ - it just had so much sentimental value and was symbolic. At any rate, we shopped around for 2 days, as we had no time, and after going to 3 or 4 jewelers and being insulted - most offered $100 to $200 to - take it off our hands - the 5th small jeweler was honest and kind and fair and gave us, I think, $2,000 for the set. It saved us from disaster, so do try a few more jewelers. Keep the faith. And the point of my story? Tides changed for us, and now 3 years down the road, my husband surprised me with a new set - again, not expensive, but its worth a million $$ to me. I think you are a wonderful person to do this for your dear dog. Lots of folks wouldn't even consider it. You will be blessed for it, for sure. Hope your pooch gets well, and hope you get top $$ for your ring.
No, but I have a few on my face - wondering what to do about them - any ideas? nm

She's not mental, it's just that she's right about many things people can't face up to...
Most of what she says is true. It's been far more documented as fact and the truth than the information the administration has given and still gives.
As far as soldiers.....read optruth.org. There are many soldiers who do not agree with this war or how this administration has handled it and they need to be listened to.
Re: Happy face post...I couldn't have said it better myself....sm
I've been an MT for over 25 years, the past 6 as an IC. I work completely independently. I have no communication with my accounts other than to submit my lines or receive an occasional email regarding changes or additions to account specific instructions. You can blast me for this, but with the exception of those who are new in the field, a good MT should be confident enough with her knowledge and skills to not want or need anyone's pat on the back. If you can't do a good job without a baby sitter, perhaps you should consider another line of work.
my butt will probably just get bigger, but I choose face
Look at Madonna, bod is solid as a rock but that FACE ---eek
Too bad he ruined his face with plastic surgery
I got a face full of acne from their products....
along time ago. I can no longer use Marykay facial products. I also get cold sores from "all" lipsticks. I only know of one other person like this and she is a cousin of mine.
OT: Changing face of veterinary medicine (sm)
Is it only me or has veterinary medicine changed quite a bit over the years to resemble care of humans? I have cats and absolutely love them but I'm becoming torn between necessary care, preventive care, and just down-right UN-necessary care. I remember back when animals went to the vet for shots and only when they got sick. If they were sick, diagnosis and prognosis dictated the next level of care. And in most cases back then there were no options other than to let nature take its course if something serious/chronic was found.
I'm now noticing that every time I take one of the cats to the vet's, the doc wants to do "baseline" blood work at least once a year and now wants to see my ten-year-old cat on a twice-yearly basis. My kitty is healthy as a horse and has had no health problems for ten years. Why all of a sudden does he need expensive BASELINE lab work and xrays as well as needing to be seen twice a year and have his teeth cleaned twice a year (not cheap)? It sounds like I'm complaining about the money end versus taking care of my kitty, and I suppose in a sense I am, because this adds up to a whole lot over the course of time. The doc mentioned the reasons for the lab work (diabetes, thyroid problems, anemia, cancer, etc.) I'm torn between having the work done and what I would do if anything chronic showed up on the tests. I love my kitty but don't know if spending lots of money on chronic meds/therapy would be an option when I would have to weigh other expenses against them.
To your answer, no face lift but he dictated like
he did the face lift, 8 months later. The operative notes are supposed to be done in a timely manner. I always thought probably he was just trying to think should he dictate the part he really did or include the ones he didn’t and he went for falcifying my records. These are my legal, permanent medical records.
