That's a neat idea. I may have to try it.

By the end of the day my hiney is about dead. Maybe that would help.

That's really neat..
That you get together with a friend and have lunch or whatever.  That is so important to keep up your friendships, keep your life balanced.  Sounds like you have done a great job!
I think that is so neat. sm
My fingers get so stiff when they get cold and this could be the answer. I also have thought about just getting plain gloves with open fingers. My only concern is would it get too hot?
Well that is neat...nm

Sounds neat to me.

here you go. A neat site. It is not about

any company, strictly a help site for production, including Word, WP, IT, Shorthand, etc.  Its very active, questions are answered quickly.  But remember, it is all volunteer help, so no demanding.

start out neat that is.....nm

This is a neat trick, if you don't already use it...sm
I'm sure many of you have heard of this already, but for those who haven't...it sure helps me when I'm typing AND reading back over my work.  You can hold down the control key and turn the roller wheel up a notch on your mouse to enlarge the print on your screen.  Then just hit control and scroll it back down to make it smaller again.  This has made it "easy on the eyes" for me.  Hope someone can benefit from this as I have!
that sounds neat...
Were they hard to get accustomed to?
They have this really neat thing at the top of this page
It's a little green box with the word "search" in the bottom middle. If you press that and put in the company name, you'll get all kinds of info that has been shared previously on most companies. It's really a neat feature provided by this board. Give it a try.
Jemez Mts are pretty neat also

You can drive the Turquoise Trail from ABQ to Santa Fe. I think its state road 14.  It runs from east of ABQ up to around SF somewhere.  Take the tram to the top of Sandia if you would like some nice views of the city.  There is a 2 mile nature trail up there too, if it is still there.


On the west side, there is Petroglyph National Monument.


Are you going to be there during the balloon fiesta?  It was always so cool to see all of those balloons in the air when I got up to go to class in the morning.  I went to the mass ascension once.  Very early morning and COLD! but a worthwhile experience.


Red River, NM is small but I have been there twice for long weekends.  There is a gorge somewhere near there that I stopped at both times to take pics - forget where or the name - sorry.


I do believe you can actually go to the exact point of the 4 corners.  Sounds like a fun photo op - not sure if much else in that area is exciting though.  Its pretty darn rural.


Have fun!


 


Aw, that's so neat, I needed that after a long day!
Thank you for posting that, many points worth remembering.
Pet collar for surgery. I found this neat
collar for my dog who just had surgery.  It works better than one of those cones.  It is called a no-bite cervical collar for pets.  They are available on the internet. 
I never thought of that. A newsletter would be kind of neat.
It means you thought enough of them to update them on what's going in your life and your family. And just think, years later someone who did not even know you personally would surely have interest as well, kind of like family heritage things. I thoroughly enjoy going back and reading several notebooks that my MIL wrote while she was alive. She always kept her notebook handy to write notes of things going on. It really is interesting reading and perhaps one day someone else will find these newsletters the same. Now....can I really take the time to actually write one? We'll see.
Want to keep winning? Having fun yet? Got tons more neat stuff!

You know, that sounds really neat. What kind of stuff do you hear? sm
Any recommendations if I ever want to get one? What kind do you have?

thanks!
The timestamp sounds neat, but that URL reirects to another site? What's the right URL? Thx nm

Wow, just noticed a load of OR samples also...pretty neat.

How can we learn this neat stuff if it's not in the help menu? We have to wait till

neat web site 'chemo angels'. Help cancer patients
http://www.chemoangels.com/
okay neatly correlated lies. and the trailer parks are really neat little hideaways the statistics
no excuse for not researching with google or even yahoo. my neighborhood is zoned to not allow trailer parks (ever wonder why???) thus my property if more valuable than another community that is not zoned against trailer parks. Now did you ever consider why communities would even think of having a zoning commission that would ban trailer parks. Community standards might come in to play and they don't want property values diminished. GOOGLE friend. The truth will set you free.
Saw him on CMT show with John Fogarty. Great, great singer with a neat personality and drop dead
gorgeous without seeming to know it. 
This is the whole idea
The corporations want it that way-- they don't give a rip about the "middle class". The CEOs just want to be able to buy a new yacht every year, new cars, have several homes all over the country and maybe the world, etc. It's all about GREED. That's why nobody will do anything about illegal immigration. They want to pay their workers as little as possible so it's all profit for them.
What is your idea of
"enough?"  How much do you think the job is worth?
An idea
for the businesses that you should contact are the ones where your friend has done business such as bank,church, her place of employment, and any place that her parents were involved in. When we had a fundraiser for someone that I worked with we contacted a local band and a bar with a dance floor to helped raise money for his injuries. They all volunteered their service free of charge. And many people showed up to help him out. Just a thought!
You have no idea.
Let's just keep it there.
Better idea
If you have an experienced MT doing the recruiting, he/she can tell just in a conversation whether the applicant does/does not know his/her business.  As you said, you're going to know within the first couple of days whether or not the applicant is going to pan out  If you're testing for an MT to do cardiac caths, start a conversation about cardiac caths.  All MTs I have ever known love to discuss their trade...if they know it.  These extensive tests put out by most companies these days are a horrific waste of time...they don't prove a thing!
Idea
Maybe it's like one website I went to, where it seemed the way to do it was to respond with an e-mail first (pasting a resume into your e-mail and saying what job you were interested in), and then they would respond and tell you what tests they wanted you to take?
I have no idea! -nm

Now there's an idea!
nm
Thank you for that idea. I can do that.
The obvious solution is always right in front of us, right? LOL
I have no idea what they are seeing that I am
Not at all.  Good for them if they are getting a better deal at Walmart.  Wasn't happening for me.
Have no idea what it could be, but if he has any (nm)
nm
I have them...have no idea why you don't
You might try emailing the moderator or administrator of this site.
one idea
If you are using actual WavPedal software, try this first.  Open WavPedal - settings - options - file associations - and make sure .dss is checked (or add file type .dss and check it).  Close.  Then, right click on your voice file and "open with" and choose WavPedal.  Should open.  Sounds like your default player for voice files is not WavPedal.  I think it will ask you (can't remember off hand) then just choose YES for WavPedal as default for all files with .dss association. 
I had no idea. THANK YOU SO MUCH.


I have no idea what you mean. nm

Here is an idea

Start out not charging anyone anything but time.  Everyone who joins contributes a skill to the organization such as marketing, PR, etc.  It costs nothing to do e-mail newsletters, just time and some people to write for it.  Online meetings on Yahoo or MSN groups would be nothing to do.


Also getting a website can be pretty cheap if a few members would be willing to design it.  Everyone has a friend of a friend who has this business or that.  A lot of times, especially in the case of smaller businesses, they are willing to trade small services for exposure and advertising.  You would be amazed.


I used to work in Marketing for nonprofits before deciding to stay home as an MT. I also still do consulting work.  I am all for a new organization and would love to participate in any way I could to back to representing what "they" were supposed to.


Send me an e-mail.  We'll chat. 


Huh? what does this mean? no idea.nm
.
Thanks for this idea....sm
is there a way to find out what companies hire SE?  That sounds good.  What company do you work for if you don't mind me asking.  You could e-mail me if you want.  Thanks!
You have no idea how much better that
makes me feel! Hopefully mine does the same. I've unplugged it and am leaving it alone for awhile. I found out to fix it the cost will be around $300. I sure hope it works.

I do not know how my supervisor puts up with me sometimes, but she has me set up to work another way until I get this fixed. Thank you all for the help!
any idea
anyone know why it takes so long to get a count on the ichart site?  Been happening all week - takes up to a full day and 1/2.
Thanks so much for that Idea! sm
You know I'm beating myself up trying hard to figure out how to do the hard hyphen and hard space so it expands that way and your idea of doing it first then highlighting and entering it is not something I would have ever thought of!!! This works great. Thank you so much for all your help.
I Like your idea

I like your idea.  


No idea.
I have a not great account that gets cherry picked into extreme lateness. I don't mind if you cherry pick to get a decent doctor or two after having a ton of crappy ones but to cherry pick out all the good stuff and put the rest of us behind with all the bad ones is just wrong.
Idea - sm
I don't know logistically how to go about this, but as a sociology student I know there should be a way. What if we could somehow poll people to see if they approve of their records being sent overseas and use that in our letters?
I just got an idea
I have noticed that with every company i have worked for the general style has been not to reveal or encourage the MTs to talk.  This is totall a divide and conquer thing. It would be nice if we could all (safely without lossing our jobs) list ourselves somewhere and what company we work for.  If things are bad for everyone and we could team up...who knows.....
An idea...
You can if you have the disc. I'm not personally sure about those programs, but, when I first started with my co. I took my computer there for them to load because it was in same state and not too far away. Anyway, when I bought new computer, I just had them overnight me the disk instead of taking new computer to them. Then they walked me through some final details. So, if you can't transfer it, that might be a thought.
An idea
Let's face it, they want us to wipe their noses for them.

I don't blame you for being upset at all, but it won't do any good to talk to your OM. They'll do whatever the dictators ask.

When that happens to me, I get upset for a few hours, grumble to myself, then stick a post-it note near my computer screen, and after a couple of days, it's habit and I don't think about it anymore.

I like that idea.
I like it indeed.
here's an idea -
and not off the subject.  I was due for a new car but can't afford one now that my wages have been cut to match Indians.  Toyota Camrys are made in Kentucky (and I think West Virginia, some parts) - yes it is a Japanese corporation but American workers do have jobs.  Bumper stickers are a great idea.  I had considered a billboard - I have no idea how much they cost.  Hospital security would probably throw me out but I can walk across the street on public property.
They have no idea.
MD-created templates are extremely difficult and time-consuming to use. You are left to guess at what they mean, and then you get no feedback. They are probably so sure their bases are covered that they aren't even reviewing their reports anymore.

My sympathies. Good luck.
