    What a Wonderful Person
    The world need more people like you. What a wonderful person you are to have rescued the lucky (now) beagle from the shelter. Many people wouldn't have done what you did with him having so many problems. I hope he continues to get better and that he stays a member of your family for a long time to come.
    So lovely!
    The ESLs really get me sometimes.
    Lovely, just lovely. nm
    Figures that they would use our own money against us.
    very lovely
    thanks - i needed these words of inspiration today.
    lovely gas prices
    2.99 in West Texas .... and I have a hundred mile rnd trip to get to work *sigh*. I wonder how much longer I can afford to GO to work! LOLOL
    Oh, such lovely memories of you
    I like the way you sign your name "my goodness" makes me think of the other night when you went to take a toke of my stogie you said the same thing "My goodness, Frank, you are are......" you know the rest my dear.
    I think it sounds lovely.
    "Less is more" - words to live by. Classy and attractive.
    Both are equally as lovely--sm
    but to me, a 10 hour trip anywhere to see the mountains is always worth it! Go. you will not regret it.
    That is such a lovely idea!

    I think all of these lovely posters meant to say WELCOME TO MQ!!
    Congrats on your new job.  DO NOT give these sea-hags a grain of salt.  Whine, whine, complain, complain, gripe, gripe. JEALOUSY - does bad things to peoples' brains!  Enjoy your new job!!  You made a very good choice!
    Franky, darling, it's been lovely
    chatting with you.  However, it is now 9:07 pm in Alabama.  A 'real' man is on his way over.  Therfore, I must bid you farewell.  I look forward to communicating with you tomorrow, if you don't have AA meeting or crossdresser's anonymous. Remember the 12 steps and keep hope alive.  'nite darlin'
    MT STARS: Thank you for my lovely gift.

    That sounds absolutely lovely
    I have my own office, too, but it shares space with my craft area. I've been wanting to clean it up and this is inspiring!
    Thanks for a lovely start to the week.
    All these kind words just made my day.

    Just found this lovely article about India

    on the Kansas City Star's website:


    Chamber formed to foster U.S.-India business


    A group of area professionals and business executives have formed the Indo American Chamber of Commerce — Kansas City to provide a bridge between Indian and U.S. businesses in the region.


    The organization was officially launched last weekend, in time for the Feb. 8 visit to Kansas City by Ronen Sen, the Indian ambassador to the U.S. The group also is organizing a conference on “Doing Business With India,” scheduled for April 10 at the Kauffman Center. The Chamber of Commerce of Greater Kansas City also is planning a business mission to India in the fall.


    The new group’s founders are Raj Bhatia, chairman and managing director, and Sanjay Kohli, president.


     


    I'm not sure what all this means, but why are we wanting to force more business "friendships" with these people?!!


    I work for the person. I know. Very excellent person, personally and business-sense.
    It is an INSULT to have QA hovering over seasoned MTs who know what they are doing. She trusts her MTs and again if there are questions there is one person, a trainer, who can answer them via phone, e-mail or instant message or you can send the whole report to them if you choose.
    Point was is the person willing to make up for the slack of the person who types 1 job when there is

    if that is all they WANT to type.   Is the person who wants to be a supervisor willing to make up for those people?


    You have crap supervisors, editors and mts in the business like you have good ones.   Sadly, the really good ones of all of them are few and far between. 


    We're getting lovely soft quiet snow now.

    It's winding down now (2200 hours) here near Bangor, ME, but it was just so beautiful and soft--super fine and it looks like glitter when light hits it from flashlights or porch lights.  It really is quite beautiful out there and not too awfully cold.  No wind to speak of and everything is muffled quiet-like.  Just beautiful and the animals are having an absolute blast playing in it! 



    When you have a QA person that is picky and another QA person that is very lenient where does that
    leave the MTs because some are getting a lenient reviewer and others are getting one that picks at everything. How do you reconcile that issue with the difference in QA mentality. Some people make out well and the other people could be just as good but dont. I wonder about that.
    The person MTSO pays is the person who

    oh our lovely government does give illegals medicaid, foodstamps, and housing so in term we give tha
    i have been through some rough times lately and had to apply for some help. there are signs, big signs, all over our offices saying "YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE LEGAL TO GET HELP". so we and our government do give them our benefits whether they are legal here or not. now that is messed up. i am helping to support them so they can take away my jobs and i can't even support my kids and yes i get benefits, wow $75 a month in food stamps which lasts not even a week in a household of 6. don't get me wrong, i am thankful for any help at the moment, but i get penalized for trying to work my tail off and still can't survive.

    there was recently an article in our local newspaper where one of our local school districts tried to charge $1000 a year for each illegal student enrolled. it was bulked and the illegals got a lawyer to sue for discrimination. the school district merely stated that they had to HIRE extra teachers that could speak the foreign language just to teach these children and were trying to offset some of the expenses. ridicilous!! so again our taxpayers money is paying to educate illegals as well.
    One person's "custom" is another person's
    "house arrest". I'd never go to the Middle East because of how they treat women. I don't agree with their laws or "justice" system. For example, the woman who was gang raped as punishment for the actions of her 12-year-old brother, a boy who wasn't even an adult. How's that for a "custom"? Let's not forget bride burning. Burqas.

    Besides, foreigners don't follow our "customs" when they come to this country. Half of them don't even bother learning English. Instead, we're expected to pay for healthcare and foodstamps for illegals and print everything in Spanish.

    I won't be oppressed or treated as a second class citizen, and I wouldn't treat others like that either. A "custom" is more like putting up a Christmas tree, not being abused based on your gender.
    i'm sure it will vary from person to person.
    I recently did the same thing and am loving it! The freedom from time clocks, the better company, make losing the benefits well worth it to me. You need to set up a plan to have $ set aside for taxes though. I should have done this years ago!
    Wrong person. I'm not the person you were
    any money.  You have a sucky attitude, a "poor me" attitude.  Get off your lazy whiny a$$ and work instead of complaining and you will make money.  I have one account at 10.5 cpl, two at 14 cpl and one at 15 cpl.  I make a lot of money, even on the 10.5 cpl.  But I'm not sitting around whining either.  And I didn't whine when I made $6 an hour.
    If everything is wonderful---
    Why were you complaining???
    That is just wonderful (sm)
    No more waiting for months.  Congrats again!
    How wonderful! Can I ask...

    How did you go about this?  Are you a parent, and if so did you wait until kids were older?  Not trying to be nosy, but I have been thinking about this a lot.  My kids are still relatively young, but as they get closer to both being in school full-time, I have been thinking about going back to school and studying something in the healthcare field.  I think becoming a doctor is too far out of my reach, although in another lifetime, that would have been my dream.  But, maybe a PA, or some type of therapist, or a nuclear medicine tech? 


    Any info you can share would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!


    How wonderful!

    Happy mother's day!
    That is wonderful
    The hospital where I worked before going to MQ 10 years ago would always play it up big time. I miss that, but MQ has made a bit of a dent this year (well, I say a bit because I haven't won anything LOL). Food and a new reference book -- can't beat that!!! (well, um, maybe the Tiffany bracelet would :-)


    Wonderful!
    That is wonderful. I love the doctors who seem as if they have a good personality and care about not only their patient's but also their transcriptionist. It is always nice to be recognized as a human being! Kudos to that doctor and keep up the good work Patti! You are obviously doing something very wonderful for them!
    Oh, how wonderful! Thank you very much!

    What a wonderful day...NOT

    My one doc got laryngitis on Tuesday...he's still dictating but only in a whisper. Yet, when he had part of his voice, I couldn't understand a darn thing! Whispering was definitely better. LOL


    I took a break from my other job to run to the store...15 minutes max. Put our puppy outside because I don't quite trust her in the house by herself yet. Came out of the store and my BATTERY WAS DEAD!!!  Didn't have the strength to open the hood of the truck all the way (I'm no spring chicken), then couldn't get it closed because I'm too short.


    Thanks heavens for cell phones. Beeped hubby. He was 50 miles away. Called 1 son. He was 30 miles away. Called foster son. Wow. He was home!!!...but sick with the flu and he only lived a mile away. After waiting 45 minutes, he finally arrived. Surely he would be able to get it going...nope not even with the extra battery. Truck still sitting in the parking lot. Poor pooch was so very happy to see me come home.


    On top of this, it's my birthday {{{shudder}}}


     I think I'll just stay home and keep working from now on.


     


    Wonderful!

    Hapy to hear that!


    Wonderful job
    You inspire me!!
    What a wonderful
    response to people who are new to the profession. It's good to see someone give some great helpful advice to someone who wants to get into the field. Good for you! I was new once and I remember how hard it was to enter the profession. It's still hard to obtain new accounts because this is such and invisible job, but I love working at home. I bet all those newbies appreciate your advice!
    That's wonderful...
    Never, ever should have been outsourced in the first place. That is just NOT SAFE for a million reasons. Congrats!
    Wonderful!!
    Never been happier to switch myself. All in all i am saving over $100 a month and the only time my net went out for longer than an hour was when a line was cut and AT&T customers were out too. It is a shame that AT&T was allowed to buy up the smaller companies. Just ruined the whole thing.
    Wonderful...
    This sounds like it may be just what I need. Where can I get one of these?

    Thanks for such good advice...I havenever heard of this before!
    That would be wonderful
    to produce like that.  I agree somewhat with the poster who does doctor office notes.  I worked for a medium-sized clinic and did very well. I had one psychologist who would dictate an eight to ten page initial assessment, and then when the testing was done, he would have you copy the assessment (mind you being paid for those lines again), and add the testing information.  I made out very well with him.  I also had a lot of standards under the Objective and Treatment Plan, which helped with my line counts.  I just saved my format in autocorrect and popped it in with the information already there.  When I transcribed the initial assessment, I saved the whole thing in autocorrect under the patient's last name, and when the testing came through just popped it up and added to it.  Very easy lines.
    You are wonderful!
    That worked! Not sure how it got marked, but whatever! Thank you so much!
    Wonderful, thanks

    Thank you for sharing. I know I'd be using this a lot :)


    THIS IS WONDERFUL
    Of course you should mention MT!!!! We're finally getting our chance to be heard. I'm inspired to do the same thing now!!! How else can we have people get the picture about their medical records going overseas without saying it's the MT business?? This is great? Good job!!
    That is wonderful! It is a very sm
    noble profession and folks with your attitude are the ones who make this profession what it use to be and what it still can be. When I started we had a dictaphone system that had these little things that looked like records but were very very thin. Kind of like the stuff you find in cereal boxes as a prize for kids, that is what the dictation was on. Then out came cassette tapes...what a advance, makes me laugh now. Then the mini tapes, then dictaphone C-phones to internet based stuff, selectric typewriters, to IBM wheelwriters, to stand alone word processors, to main frame computers and on and on to where we are today. Oh yeah, not to mention the CARBON PAPER AND WHITE OUT which is just too funny now. But the changes have been amazing. They will keep coming.

    I can't say I am crazy about voice editing but I think if used correctly it has its place. The sad part is I don't think it can ever take the place of a real live MT but the money grubbing businesses are trying to make it take the place of the MT thus setting things backwards. That part saddens me.

    I commend you on your perseverence!
