This post refers to the posts below from the ICs from TRX (I am one) - I find it interesting that a person would come on here and call someone out of there name (the owner) and then walk away without explaining how he/she came to their conclusion.  Seems a person would want to make their case or maybe just persons like myself and the other IC who stood up to ask why.  I'm so confused.  I guess we're all just different that way.    Some people are yellow and some aren't.  That's right, I said it.

HMMMM
Reread all the posts. Do you see that I am the only one doing that? Do you really not see the other ones doing that either? Probably not, because you aren't reading their posts as closely as you are mine.
hmmmm
Wouldn't letting anyone other than your employer know you handled this report by a violation of HIPAA? Especially since it is on the newswires with names and other details?
hmmmm...
i tried one adapter (my laptop does not have a ps2 port) and it didn't work. maybe i need to try another. Thanks for answering.
Hmmmm

Just dictated for an ER report:  The patient is resting comfortably on the stretcher, moaning in pain.


I always moan in pain when I'm comfy, don't  you?


"...anyone no the rate..." hmmmm nm

Hmmmm....not this time. nm

Hmmmm...they stopped with the stamps here

my response was taken off -- hmmmm interesting
but it doesn't surprise me. I have to choose my words even carefully next time.
Hmmmm...Birds of a Feather Flock Together.

How horrible to be your neighbor, no matter what color. I feel sorry for them.


Really? Hmmmm...you wouldn't know the stock market if it bit you.
Run a stock analysis on MQ under any search engine.  Yahoo stock analysts are the ones I use personally.  There are advisories and analyses of MQ and Philips in the data base EVERY DAY.  There have been "hold" advisories, "sell" advisories, and "buy" advisories any given day.  Sorry to disappoint your disillusioned mind. Obviously NASDAQ and regular trade is better, but they are STILL in the ball game, sorry to disappoint you. And you SHOULD be happy at that if you care about the 1000s of MQ employees who have stocks, etc.  But, gee, sounds like you're just a disgruntled werker!
Glad it's not just my kids.. They have radar for ANYTHING yummy. Hmmmm,

Hmmmm Never even considered it. Leaving the keyboard always slows me down

Hmmmm. So, India doesn't want Wal-Mart, but they want OUR jobs.

Thank you SOooo much MQA !...
Just what I needed! You don't know how much you have helped! I have printed your response. I was trying to make it too hard by overthinking like I always do. My physical therapist keeps hinting that one of their (at home) transcriptionists left, HINT HINT, and I have been afraid to talk to the office manager because of all of the logistics stuff.

One more question: About the 3$ a page...could you explain a little more about that. What about half pages and the like? Have you figured out what kind of cpl that equals? However, the 3$ a page sounds like a much easier way to calculate the bill.
Thanks again!
That is SOOOO right-on!

you are soooo right.

Thank you soooo much. I thought it was just me.

That Indian MT who lives in the US story and cherry picks while not wanting to do Indian bad dictators just was too much!  And the insider who told the MT this was happening.   Wow!  For two months!!!  How long should it take for the Indian MT to cherry pick before she does the Indian dictators?   Blah, blah, blah.  How and why do people do this to themselves?


It is the nature of the business just like sales.  You win some, you lose some.  There is feast and there is famine.  Do the work while it is there because tomorrow it may be dry.  Don't like the work, get another job. 


 


 


 


 


 


What hospitals?? I'm soooo there


You are soooo welcome. I'm glad for you!

Too cool! Thank you soooo much sm

MTStars and Executive Communications!


:) Happy MT week!  You've made this a really special week for all of us. 


Felicia


omg yes!! Rob Thomas is soooo HOT! nm

I'm sorry, but I would have soooo just walked out of there.
That HAD to be awkward.
I soooo can relate to you!.....sm
Please don't feel so bad, menopause affects your mood, temperament, just so many things about your body that you are used to! I had a radical hysterrectomy back in 2000, so I had to go through menopause "instantly." I could not take the patch and hated HRT, so I have been using naturopathic supplements to help....but depression, mood swings, cravings, the HORRIFIC night sweats and hot flashes, lowered libido....I got it all, and it really is a transition. Could you perhaps speak with a compassionate female therapist, not necessarily a psychiatrist, but someone who understands what you are going through and can hash out all of the issues that are bothering you? Just know that I care, you have friends here, and please feel free to e-mail me anytime, okay?
soooo true
I was hired as a QA manager and the company I work for have been trying to demote me every chance they get, promoting the less qualified, etc etc. It is clear that a good MT is more valuable to a company as just that, an MT. Sooo try not to be as good and you might move up in the ranks. LOL;
Thank you guys soooo much!
I knew this was the place to come to get help! 
Soooo true!
Well spoken.  No one seems to care that these foreign parasites are compromising the integrity of their own patient records with their slovenly dictation styles!!!!!!!!!!!
Laughing - you are soooo right
QA is overrated and yes they do need to get themselves.... QA are MTs that think they know more than a regular MT... in a nutshell.... 
some people are soooo lucky!

Oh yeah, I am soooo scared!
What are you gonna do, ride your horse over here and get me???????
Your BOS post is soooo true! sm

There are so many newer MT's who don't know the facts where BOS is concerned.  I use my BOS everyday....  it elevates my monitor to just the right height. 


 


Ok..I will soooo not watch SVU anymore if they
split up Olivia and Elliot!! OMG what a show tonight!
This is not creamy, but is SOOOO good...
1 cup oil
1 cup vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 Tbsp salt
1/2 Tbsp garlic powder
3 Tbsp parsley flakes (may use less)
1/2 Tbsp black pepper
4 tsp dried mustard
16 oz cooked rotini
1 medium cucumber
1 medium green pepper


Mix all ingredients well, refrigerate before serving.

Note: I leave out the cucumber and pepper when refrigerating, and cut these and add just before serving.

MS Word SOOOO Slow
Has anyone ever experienced a very slow MS Word program all of a sudden?  It is very slow to get into and exit from MS Word 2002. Once in the program it is fine and all other programs on computer seem to work fine.  Wondering if I may have too many autocorrect and autotext entries??  Any help would be appreciated.  have tried everything can think of, even added much memory.  Thanks.
Wow to Technical Support! Thanks soooo much! ....
for your extensive answer!
I'll start with cleaning up my mouse and working up from there if this does not work.
I'll let you know.
There are still very kind, knowledgable, helpful and generous people in this world, THANKS !
I was soooo lucky... my son was potty trained at 2..
He had his 2nd birthday party on Saturday, and on Monday he started potty training.  Never bought another diaper.  Two weeks later, he was in underwear during the day.  But, I took him regularly and monitored his juice intake.  Thirty minutes after dinner was the last full drink.  He would go potty right before bedtime at 8pm and maybe get a little juice if he asked for it.  Since I worked nights, I would wake him up (or just take him sleep) to the bathroom at around 12am or 12:30am.  He would wake up dry most mornings, but he wore Pull-Ups until he was about 2-1/2.  He is 7 now and has an accident every blue moon, mainly because he falls asleep in bed without going to the bathroom right before getting in bed.  Proud of him.  Yours will get there too. 
I agree, and I work for MQ! Sooo boring, soooo old, and
you would think they'd realize how idiotic they look - whining and whining and predicting doom and gloom! Honestly, MQ and Philips is BOOMING in the business world right now.  Huge advances the last few months - HUGE sales of products, advances, awards in the industry.  I get email alerts daily on the HUGE growth of MQ - and these old sea-hags just sit on here and cackle about DOOM.  Boy, do they need a reality check, or what? All is fine in MQ world, and always, always will be!  As long as you're willing to work and have a brain, MQ is a great place to work! Oh, yeah, and I'm mgmt - making 6 figures and even remotely interested in sea-hag opinions! That is just soooooooooooooo lame, too! Or maybe I'm the same poster from below who always uses CAPS! That is sooooooooooo funny. Cracked up at that analysis - some of these women have way toooooooo much time on their hands rather than hitting the keyboard! Analysing posts to compare typing styles. Give me a break! What a hoot!
Soooo...what are you saying? That people should post something that is worthy of the board in SM
your estimation? Would you like to have the monitors delete this post about KL and Regis? What is it that you want? Or would YOU like to think of a transcription topic and post it? What's the deal?
I love Directv. The picture is soooo much clearer than cable. sm
Prices in our area are comparable between cable and DirecTV.  If you look at their website, you can pull up comparison charts showing exactly which channels are on each service package.  You can sort them by number or alphabetically and print them out if necessary.
Problems as in communication?? If so, I'm soooo there. Sick of unanswered emails. No one cares

That's not weird
nm
You may think I'm weird. . .
But I find MT very relaxing. I used to work as a human resources manager and had a phone to my ear all day and people in my office complaining about their supervisors, complaining about their employees, and just plain complaining. My job had TONS of variety - like when one of the companies I worked for had a big layoff and I had a suicidal employee in my office telling me she was going to kill herself because she was being laid off. Frankly, you could pay me all the money in the world and I wouldn't go back to that. I think MTs great - more money would be nice, but other things are important, too.
another weird one..

I didn't transcribe this one, but a doc I worked for was telling us about this man in the ER with a gerbil (s/p?).... you know the little furry animal...stuck in his rectum.  Apparently the gerbil was put in his rectum using a paper towel cardboard tube-thingy and got stuck behind a gas bubble in his intestines!!!!


I don't know what ever happened to that man, but I hope he went for some serious counseling after that...


This is weird...
There are no menu keys at all, no view. I clicked on the small window and it made the page smaller. Now I have my menu keys, my tool bar, everything. When I enlarge the page back, then I lose everything again. If I keep it small, everything is okay.
Something that happens weird (sm)

When I'm typing along with my Instant Text along the bottom I'll occasionally (too much for my tastes) lose letters, especially when I type a period...I'll lose the last 2 or 3 characters of the previous word.  It's really bizarre.  I have no other problems with IT when typing in Word all by itself or any other program, so I assume it's just a problem when I'm using the ExText with IT.


I like going back into the old documents.  It takes a bit sometimes to load different things but it's good overall.


So weird

Its so weird, this happens to me too..


I wonder why though?


That's her and she is really weird...
So does this mean that now we have to be leery of posting on here as well in order to avoid even more scam artists than usual?
weird
The thing for me is this sounds like you were working on site in the office with all this drama. How can you even see how much work someone else is doing if you are a virtual worker? And everything else sounds like the hospital politics of working in the hospital, strange that it could go on virtually.
how weird am I?

I won't give out my phone number, but yet I invited an internet friend of mine from Australia to come and stay with me for a couple of weeks while she was in the states. 


I'm happy to report that her visit was absolutely wonderful and she did not turn out to be a serial killer, as my daughter had portended :)


I must be weird
but I have always typed B with my left hand (6 with right).
Weird question for you MTs
Do you ever notice when you have your head phons on that sometimes your ears itch inside really bad, like you can feel water moving inside?  REALLY!
Weird question for you MTs
I used the stethoscope type ear phones and had the same experience with itching. Stopped using them and no problem anymore
