so glad it worked for you! sm
As I said earlier, this same problem had plagued me for years, getting worse as time went on. Someone on this board took pity on me and extended a helping hand. Now it is my turn to help someone else. I am glad it worked. take care.
I'm glad you got it worked out, but fyi...
Check out images of each...

BTW, thanks to whoever mentioned getting a hub with a power supply rather than just pulling from the computer. That makes sense to me.
Glad it all worked out, Patti. nm

Sounds like the Marines at your house! I'm really glad you "schedule" some quality time wi

your kids!  I think you are way harsh with your 15-year-old stepdaughter.  What's wrong with helping with homework?  Not giving her the answers, but sitting with her and explaining things?  I help my 14-year-old with his homework and I check everything he does for errors.  If he makes mistakes, I sit down with him and explained what he did and have him do it over.


As fars as my kids getting up on their own - my kindergartener gets up without the aid of an alarm clock because she is an early riser, but my teenager has to be gotten up and personally I don't see what is wrong with that.  They are TEENAGERS! 


My kids have chores and earn an allowance each week.  They must keep their rooms clean.  My son takes out the garbage, cleans the bathroom, and helps me do the dishes.  My daughter takes turns helping me do the dishes and sweeps the kitchen floor and feeds the animals.


My kids are spoiled, but what's the point in being a working mom if you can't spoil your kids every now and then?


I don't think so. It sounds like you've never worked for a national.
Nationals DO check references.  That's the job of the HR department.  They DO run credit reports when you accept a job, and they tell you so on the piece of paper you have to sign giving them permission to do so.  They DO prosecute and report to collections against people who don't return equipment.  They DO keep deposits on unreturned equipment.  They DO get the equipment super cheap anyways in bulk deals through major technology suppliers.  Equipment, losses, and shipping are all tax deductible anyway.  They DO use QA so that lazy or inexperienced MTs aren't sending garbage straight through to the clients.  Most national MTs don't have any contact whatsoever with the clients.  In addition, the majority will let you use your own equipment or charge rental fees so it's not coming out of their pocket.
May I ask which office your all worked for. Sounds very familiar.

Sounds like a company I worked for called

then it's up to the cops
Do you know your history? How is it that the poor Irish and Italians from NY and similar places managed to get out of their slums? You want to know what real poverty was all about, read up on it.

That said, the mayor and governor of NO should have taken control of the situation well in advance by doing a mass bus exodus from strategically placed street corners. People can walk to street corners, can't they. The cops should have been going door to door forcing people out of their homes. And the Superdome should have been stockpiled with enough food and water to last several weeks, which it obvious was not because two days after the storm people were saying they had nothing to eat or drink for two days.

It's so much easier for the mayor and/or governor to point the finger of blame at FEMA. That way, they don't have to take responsibility for anything.
cops in neighborhood
Thankfully, in my community we DO watch out for the neighbors.  Don't spend all day gawking at their business but we do notice strangers, strange cars and have no qualms with calling the dispatcher if something seems out of sync.  You don't have to call 911 just the dispatcher.
Now see THATs when I'd be calling the cops
if they are definitely trying to turn the knob - not just jostling it when trying to leave a hanger.


They'd be long gone before the cops ever got here - sm
if they even came. Impossible to prove, too. They pretty much say, "call us if they actually break in."

(haha... years ago, when I was a kid, our across-the-street crazy neighbor went off the deep end and was walking around on his front lawn swearing and waving a rifle. He shot at our house a couple of times, even hit it. My mom called the police, and they said, "Call us back if he actually shoots someone."
How about the cops.....illegal drugs??? That should be

Grammar and spelling cops not required.

Call the cops on the suckerbill and THEY'LL know. I feel for you. nm

LOL! Ham! The first episode!!!

The new, new episode??
The second episode isn't supposed to air until tonight!! Lucky you. They've only shown last week's episode today.
24 - last episode
Hi: Don't know if you saw my post but I did tape the last 2 hours of 24, but my husband and son have not watched it yet. If you would like it I can send it to you when they are done watching it, may be a couple of weeks though, as they are busy with baseball coaching here.
Yes, I believe that was the last episode
/
Oh yes! Cops love it when the neighbors interfere, stand around, gawk. Makes their job
Stay inside. Ask later, if you must.
Sorry, got cut off. Next week it will be a new episode.

A favor please? sm

You'd be doing him a favor as well.
By staying, you are an enabler. IN other words, you don't want anything to change. In past times, such as with his parents, there was not information (Oprah shows, tons of magazine articles) available to let people know that staying and bandaides do nothing but allow escalation of out-of-control anger. It's time everyone grew up in that house. Sure, it is scary making a move out of the house but if you both love each other, you'll be back together in a year or two. The problem here is three children who deserve a fresh slate so they can go on to create happy homes without being tainted by their role models. When you are quite old and need your kids to be there (and you will), that is when this sacrifice of comfort (if you want to call it that) will pay off.
I just watched the new episode. I hope
they can help Jeff out. Tempestt looks very pretty, and she was smart to take a break and go to school. Harvey rocks :)
Ok I love you..never missed an episode! lol

Since he dialed 9-1-1 he will....can't kill him in the first episode! -nm

YES! Don't think I've missed an episode yet.

No but I will look for the next episode. Love shows

You probably did her a favor, Tatum.
If she can't handle transcription, she should get out and seek other work. We all have to manage our own careers. Good riddance to her, and good luck to you.
Do yourself a favor & save yourself a ton
of grief. Get a reputable real estate agent and don't screw with these FSBO agents.  I promise that all they will do is take your money and won't really WORK to sell your house. That's the difference.  A REPUTABLE agent will work their butts off to sell your house.
So you are in favor of training them to take your job?

Please do this industry a favor sm
CHARGE WHAT YOU ARE WORTH AND NOT A PENNY LESS!

I mean it. The last person I talked to about this has her own company. Clinics she charges 14 to 18 cents a line, depending on the difficulty and the logistics of the office. Nope, does not include printing or tapes, they have to call in, period.

For hospitals, she charges 22 to 26 cents a line and she gets it. She usually types as many of the OP notes as she has time for and doesn't sub them out because she likes that. Any lines she does herself goes into the corporation at 100% and she pays herself a salary for all her work, not by the line for MTing she does. She has 20 yrs of experience, all of it in acute care.

She says, DO NOT sell your skills short. Don't try to undercut someone to get the job. Remind these people that they get what they pay for and deliver on every promise, but don't make promises you can't deliver on 99.5% of the time. Incorporating is good, better than not and I know all of the reasons behind that too.

I wish you every luck.
Yes--if they get things going in our favor.
Everybody complains and complains and is so reluctant to act at all.  How many have still not signed the petition or written your congressman or newspaper?  How many complain but don't try to be a part of the solution?  It's free for now so why not? 
Actually the flu is a 10 day to 2 week episode, with fatigue often lingering
after the symptoms begin to go away.  The way to tell if it's a cold or a flu is that a cold is usually from the neck up, the flu causes body aches, fatigue, coughing, etc.  Also, the duration.  Colds go away much sooner than the flu.
Chill out ms. ???. If you can't be pleasant do us all a favor

and keep your hands off the keyboard.  Why are so you so dang miserable anyway?


Hilarious, must have missed that episode, love Jim - he's a cutie nm

The AAMT is IN FAVOR of offshoring, not against it...do you ever get out of the house?

Add me to the people who favor at-home work. sm
There really are a few companies an MT can count on for reasonably good benefits.

As someone who has no children, no husband, boyfriend, or parents, if you have what I don't, CHERISH IT! The people you love are far more important than PTO! Enjoy the beautiful office your husband made for you. It obviously was done with love. You're a very fortunate woman.

Don't forget to count your blessings every day!
I'm in favor of showers for all pregnancies/babies
Diapers and supplies are always needed regardless of which pregnancy it is. Also, babies are so wonderful; I love celebrating them (and their moms) with baby showers!
online testing seems to favor BOS2 but..
my hospital used BOS3. I failed a test recently because I used BOS3 so you can't win.
Several times w/o probs. You can delete/uninstall it right after the episode, too, if you're

Is rad a whole different animal (sm)
when it comes to transcribing it? I would like to expand my specialties, but have never done rad before. Any info would be appreciated! Also, can it be learned just by doing, or would I need more thorough training, i.e.; more schoolin'?
I took offense at that too, but I chose to ignore it in favor of the issue of the post.
I figured if we made a big deal of that one word the focus would be taken off the real issue.
It's a small doctor's office so I am doing it as a favor for a mutual friend....
Nice to do something different every now and then.
