That is hysterical. When I say flames I mean "no mean posts to me." It's just a saying. nm

what does the yellow flame next to msg mean? I see it is on the "let's rebel msg"
flames
You aren't alone. I have wondered too what that was. I guess now we know. LOL.
I think the confusion is that there are two flames!
One: A flame picture shows up to the left of a *hot* post or one that has been viewed I think more than 200 times.
Two: To be flamed, is an expression, like if you post something and a bunch of people post back in disagreement etc. It has nothing to do with the other.
I got a kick out of the fact that you thought you were being *flamed* (flame #2) for your post!
I'm pretty sure that's accurate and hope it helps!
What do the little flames alongside

Are you talking about the flames?
If so, those indicate a "hot topic", meaning it has more than 200 or 250 views, that's all.
Hey Susan..I don't think it really caused any flames.

No flames here. The neighbor was definitely in the wrong. sm
I am a dog owner, too, and mine do not go outside of my yard without being on a leash and I live in the country.

HIPPA is a joke - who here really believes there is ANY SUCH THING as privacy these days in the good old US OF A?
Come on! You're being watched 24/7 - they probably know how many cavities you have for pity's sake...
Another huge beaurocracy just to give the ILLUSION we still have a scintilla of privacy left.
OMG - that's hysterical! - nm

Ain't it great we're wordsmiths with vivid imaginations!!! You turn a phrase very well. Mind if I share it with some other friends?  Cat

I think this post was put here to brag and incite flames.
You know from history that every time the big money makers in this field boast about how much money they make in how little time that the thread goes downhill fast. First, somebody doesn't believe. Then someone is offended at the insinuation of lying. Then someone says other people could do it, too, if they were any good at MT. Then everyone is defending themselves and name calling. Why start it? Especially during the week before Christmas? Do you really need to rub people's noses in their lousy paychecks when some of us don't have enough money to even get gifts for the people in our lives or pay our bills because there was no work this pay period? People who need to tell others how much they make suffer from low self-esteem and misplaced priorities. There are more important things in life than money.
If I had that high of an IQ, I wouldn't be doing this for a living. Please, no flames. NM

lighten up, I think it's hysterical
It's the family / abdomen part that I'm really cracking up over.
Please don't expect answers; bound to start flames
Every job is different, every company is different, every account is different, every MT is different. You are trying compare apples to oranges and it just starts a huge flame war. No one believes the big buck people anyway so it's not even worth posting.
It means hot topic (flames). After a certain number of people

I think it is hysterical how things have changed since I - sm
graduated HS in 1983. My parents did not send annoucements (for me or my 2 older brothers), nor did we get super extravagent gifts, I got a suede jacket I wanted (about $80), my brother's I can't remember, I think my one brother got a new car stereo because the one he had had been stolen. On the night of graduation, my parents took me and my best friend (who was living with us at the time), and her parents (have moved a month before graduation) out for ice cream at an ice cream parlour at the mall. That was all we did to "celebrate" as a family. I received no $ from anyone nor did I even think to solicit it. It is just amazing how everything these days has to have a reward, graduation Kindergarten, graduating middle school, graduation high school, college, etc. It never ends. I did not even attend my college gradation, I felt no need to force my family to sit for hours while the went throught the hundreds of graduates to watch me get my diploma. I had it mailed to me. For college I did get a used car (before I graduated) but only because I was working 3 jobs, had wreaked by bicycle and my dad's car he was letting me borrow (the brakes failed so it was not my fault in terms of being reckless or stupid). Plus all my money which amounted to $200 a month went to art supplies and feeding myself. I went hungry now and then too and had to borrow from the University on short term loans so I could eat. My parents had the money to give me but I wanted to take care of myself. They paid my tuition and my rent (about $5K a year altogether). I just think the attitude today is horrible. Kids expect everything handed to them, a car at 16, money to get gas, buy clothes, go out with friends, all handed to them, mucho money on graduation HS, etc. All we are doing is raising a bunch of lazy kids who will think the world revolves around them, and when (if) they actually get a good eduation and go out into the real world, they will be in for one heck of a shock unless mom & dad continue to substidize them, etc. then of course the kids will expect you to live frugally so when you die you leave them $500K or a million so they don't have to worry about anything (or to blow it). Sorry for the rant, but graduation annoucements, etc. just really rub me the wrong way. Since you don't even know the person who graduated, (and even if you knew them well) I'd just send a nice card and say congrats, have good luck at college and work hard. If you do send $ don't expect to be thanked, that is another social grace lacking today. I'm only 40 but boy it's amazing how manners and good taste have slipped through the cracks in only 20 or so years.
I thought it was hysterical that she slept with her head by his feet! sm
In my house sleeping w/ your head anywhere near my husbands feet is a fear factor stunt all on its own!!!
OMGosh, The "I Shot the Sheriff" guy was hysterical! (no message)
You still looked??
That is hysterical!!!! Do Barney and Betty live next door??? LOL. nm

You can always say, "No, thank you."
IMO, a good and reputable accountant (along with many others) will tell you when their services are not necessary, especially if you ask. It's just good business practice. I never hurts to ask.
Absolutely Hysterical!! We did not stop laughing. My side hurts. nm

You are hysterical Purple!! Made me laugh at this late hour!
Thanks, chick!
Just do a search and read the posts. There are plenty of posts about OSI on this board. nm.

"no boogers"
The doc dictates, "no boogers, fevers or chills"... what would you replace "boogers" with, as I do not seem to be able to find that word in any medical dictionary...I though nasal discharge...
Docs...aaahhhh!!!
to "no message"
Do you do MT and ME? I am just doing MT right now but am considering trying ASR. How does that work? Can you do BOTH or just pick 1??? If you can do both, do the reports come "mixed". Meaning maybe 2 MT jobs then 3 ASR then an MT, ASR, MT, ASR, etc. etc. Or do you get all ASR until it is caught up and then MT or the reverse depending on how pools are set up. I am a little clueless and need some input. Thanks :-)
And all Joy said was "No" on the inside of her post just as did OMT.
I'm not "no whining" that is a different poster ..
and I have quite a life! Bet I make more than you, as well!!!
Lots going on for me!! I'm not complaining about anything in my life!
Losers are the ones on here who whine about how bad their jobs are, or no work, or low pay, or how people treat them, or how companies treat them, or how bad they've got it ... now THOSE are losers. Willing to whine but nothing more!!!!
:) Does that irritate you?! LMAO
LOL I have no idea who "no whining" is but
see, we sound the similar because we have a similar problem -- sick of YOU.
Ya see, all of you whiners --are just the same. Every single one of ya. MQ cheated you. MQ STILL cheats you. MQ won't change. MQ IS changing. MQ took your money. MQ mailed you check. MQ doesn't give you any work. MQ doesn't, MQ does, MQ doesn't, MQ does.
All sounds the same to us. We're sick of you.
What's embarassing is the fact that you THINK you are really MTs! HOW FUNNY!!! Let me tell you something: Real MTs take pride in their work and control of their professional lives. They give all for companies that treat them well and they leave companies that don't. They don't stand for it.
I am not "no whining". I am a completely different person, have no idea who he/she is, don't really care. I'm just tired of hearing you complain over what you can change. It's petty, cheap, childish, self-centered, and downright unprofessional.
I've made over $200 today with MQ. How about you? Have you made any money today? NO? Hmmmm, wonder why!?!?!?!!!!!
Please take her to a "No-Kill" Shelter!
Otherwise, the animals are usually put down after only a week and 1 week really isn't long enough to get the dog adopted. So Please only bring the dog to a "no-kill" shelter!
I think I would just note "no gifts please".
Nor would I ever suggest only money be given.

p.s. to "no, it wasn't aimed...
I re-read my posts "A Matter of Pride" and "Shades of," looking for all the nasty mud-slinging & dagger-throwing I'm being accused of, & I'm simply not seeing it. I still think both posts are completely benign. There was never any mud-slinging intended on my part & for the life of me I can't figure out why Personal Choice got so upset, other than defensiveness/projection. I am still sorry you feel your thread got wrecked, but I'm not sorry I responded in a measured way to Personal Choice. All I was doing was making some calm observations, & I think it's ironic that this kind of response to my thoughts is why I stayed away from the boards for a long time.
I especially like the part about "no longer uses (sm)
international contractors."
OMT said, "No" on the inside of post message.
so "no whining" - still no SELF CONTROL, huh? The MQ draws you like a
to blood------------
you are the one pathetic. Those of us who are trying to figure out how to get out of the muck MQ put us in, come here to share things and hopefully come out of this disaster in one piece.
Like others have said - -0 - - - stay away.
Don't click on things MQ.
Don't YOU get it? We don't need your attacks. We don't need your smart butt remarks. If you don't have anything constructive to post to those of us in a bit of a mess, then don't say anything and move on.
Otherwise we are going to think you are MQ management, and we wouldn't want to think they would stoop that low.
Recent postings about "no work and so forth"
Quite a few posters who have been MTs for a number of years (myself included) have come under attack recently for comments posted here -- what those of us who have done this for years are seeing is "I only want to work certain hours, won't do weekends, don't want to be on call so on and so forth" Guess what? I got an email from my supervisor on Monday asking me to cover a certain work type while that person was on vacation -- I did it!!! -- She also called me today (Sunday and asked me to do 3 STATS -- I cover STATS on Wednesday) -- however, I did it because it it my JOB -- since I started this job in October, I have NEVER run ouf of work -- if the work type that I do runs out, I do to a differnt work type, it is similar to learning a new account which I have done in the past as well. All I want to say, is be grateful right now that you have a job and if the "work does not fit YOUR FAMILY SCHEDULE" then learn to adjust -- think PRIORITIES
Both? I thought Spheris had a "no compete" rule.
At least that is what I was told. Or maybe this is just a new thing?
I fail to understand what the "competition" would be. 
I think each case is unique. I had a "no changer" and he changed (sm)
We went for counseling and boy did things change!!!! We now listen to each other. We talk more than we ever have. We do things as a couple, for each other. We learned to openly appreciate each other for little things. We learned to love each other in ways that we never did before.
Believe me, my DH came from living at home with momma into our marriage and he expected me to take the place of his mom. That worked for a little while until I grew tired of being his maid and his bedroom companion.
What's wrong with "no gifts please" and then if some DO give money or

Help with "no operating system found" message sm
Laptop with Windows XP shows "no operating system found" - desktop working. Did this before and comes back with turning on and off, went into "setup" and shows I have so many MB stored on hard drive but cannot get system to boot, misplaced XP CD. This time I cannot get it to come back and depend on laptop at end of day to research, e-mail, etc., as desktop for too many hours is too painful. Any way to get the Windows XP to start up so I can do a system restore to an earlier time? Perhaps an update did this. It is "dead" but everything is still on there, lots of "good stuff" - a Dell so no one else will touch it and I can't get online with them as my other computer is not a Dell.

message re. "no operating system found"
No warranty- a client co. added some software to the XP which was very expensive, i.e., voice, lots of extras I used for over 2 years, "loaded" and it did this to me before but was able to get it back by unplugging, restarting several times.No one else will touch a "Dell" and that co. is closed. After several "hundred" times I can only do an "F2" and it shows me there is a hard drive with several MB of stuff on there but won't load it, tried everything in the system - hate to lose all this "good" stuff. Is there any way I can transfer my XP from my desktop or run the laptop from my desktop somehow. I think if I could get a startup menu and choose a time to restore it to, like last month or something, I could use it and stop any further "updates" which really mess up things. Gosh, I loved my laptop as it is not "painful" to use and I do have such back pain at end of day, but then I am preaching to the choir about back pain and this job, aren't I? Hate to give up on it when I know there are some good programs on there. Sorry for the rant, I have let this "take over my life" trying to get it to work again. ***$#!** Thank you!
