Dancing
To answer your ?...Drew did great. If I remember got a 28 or 29 out of 30, did the Quick Step. Love the show. In fact, starting dancing lessions tonight!

I miss dancing

Haven't gone out dancing since about 1990.

I told my 24-year-old I want to go before I die and she said she would take me to a club with drag queens who perform on stage. I can't wait!!!


Dancing with Stars
Yes, I love it. So far, Jerry Rice was my absolute favorite!
Dancing with the has-beens is more like it

re: Dancing Shoes and MQ Rocks
Yes there are MT's out there who only hae one account and never run out of work--none of these MT's work for the Amherst office, if they do, please feel free to prove me wrong. If there is an MT that works for the Amherst office and only has ONE account and they can make their lines and never run out of one--please let us know. Then we would know that their was hope for us. I agree with Dancing Shoes in the CA office, when our office closed 4 or 5 of our MT's were transferred to the CA MQ office, some went to the AZ MQ office, which has now closed, and those girls were transferred to the Dallas office, and some were transferred to the Ohio office, whcih according to one of the postings is being closed at the end of the year--all these MT's have plenty of work and only have one or two accounts and can make their production. My point is, if other offices can be run this way, why can't the Foxboro and Amherst offices be run the same way. Why do we need to be in 5 or 6 accounts, or as the MT that posted earlier today, she was in 8 accounts. Again, why can't all the offices be run the same. If there is not enough work to go around stop hiring more people--the accounts certainly can not be out of TAT when we are all out of work
speaking of dancing dogs...

maybe yours just need a few lessons?  :)

Hey dancing girl - what did they say it was? Didn't come through

My guess was costochondritis, but still, medical checkup was necessary.


Does anybody watch Dancing With the Stars?

I want Drew Lachey to win so far. Such a great show. 


 I wish I could ballroom dance but unfortunately..... not so good.

I can't believe I missed Dancing with the Stars last night.
Fill me in.  How did my favorite Drew do?  ( I don't want to hear anything too bad about Drew.)  What about the others.  HELP!  I need a rerun.
Maybe she should join Tatum O. on Dancing With the Stars. (sm)

The Desperate Housewives are always great, they get my vote.

My husband HATES dancing, clubs, anything
of the sort. I love to dance and so go out with my friends from time to time to clubs to do so. A lot of my married, taken and single friends join me. We go out to have fun together, not to pick people up. There are exceptions. He doesn't mind that I do this from time to time, just like I don't mind him playing pool (at a bar) with the guys from time to time. Also, we do have young kids at home too. Just because you are married and have kids doesn't mean you can't have a social life too.

A couple of times a week, without me, no way. That kind of pattern shows there is something else going on. He might not be seeing someone else, but I think maybe he doesn't want to be home...or it could be both.
Here's a longer clip of that dancing dog. Worth the watch!

NOW THAT IS HORSE CRAP
I am sorry, as long as I have done this and am in the business, I seriously doubt with 99% accuracy that someone can do 1200 lines or even 600 without some serious help from "giving" lines.  Do not let anyone fool you out there that is just starting out or even have been around awhile.  Unless you see proof on how it is done, see it with your own eyes, try it out yourself, do not believe the outrageous.  There is also a way I have seen MT's make lots of lines that one cannot see unless they are being QA'd, it is called "padding' and yes I am sure someone then can do 1200 lines an hour, but how much is actually dictation.  Padding is a good way to get fired from a company if caught.
Since when is being an MT working like a horse???
we don't do manual labor, geeze
Ahh, that's a horse of a different color then.
I would make it clear if you type it, they pay for it unless they can give you specifics about which patients have already been typed.

Oh Becky, get off your high horse.
Your holier-than-thou posts get really old. Can you say 'uptight'?
Straight from the horse's mouth . . .

Snagged this straight from the Escription site.  Hope it helps.


We have had success configuring both the Belkin USB/Serial Adaptor and the Dynex USB PDA/Serial Adaptor to work properly with a serial Foot Pedal and EditScript MT. Other adaptors may also work using this setup, however we cannot guarantee that they will.



  1. To set up the Belkin USB/Serial Adaptor:
  2. Install the USB/Serial adaptor per the instructions included with the device.
  3. After installation, open the Windows Device Manager:

    1. Right-Click on My Computer, choose Properties.
    2. From the Hardware tab, cick Device Manager.
    3. In the Device Manager window, click the + sign next to Ports (COM & LPT). You should see the USB/Serial Adaptor listed there with a COM port next to it.
    4. Right click on the Adaptor and choose Properties.
    5. From the Port Settings tab, click Advanced.
    6. From the COM Port Number drop-down, set the device to COM6. (Any COM device higher than COM4 should also work; be sure to remember what you set this to.)
    7. Click OK to close the Advanced window, then OK to close the Properties window.

  4. Close the Device Manager
  5. Now open EditScript and log in.
  6. Once you have logged in, click on the Options button in the EditScript toolbar:
  7. From the Foot Pedal tab, change the CommPort setting to COM6 (or whichever port it was set to above).
  8. Click OK to close the Options dialog.

Your Foot Pedal should now work properly through the Serial/USB adaptor.

Any horse lovers out there who would care to email me. I have
a problem with a skin infection on an Arab.  Need some advice or chat websites.  Thanks.
Come to think of it, I had 1 that was worse, cleaning horse manure
Cleaning horse stall out, 20 a day. I used to have to take it over to a manurer spread that was in a riding arena that was down lower than where I was, I'd open the door and dump the wheel barrow. One time the spread was almost full and I lost me foot and fell in, about broke my leg. My kids were little then and ran to the other side of the barn and LAUGHED!!!! I came up out of there and said "You better not be laughing at me!!" Oh I was hurt and mad!! What a job!
Trojan Horse - tried to enter my computer while I was on here

Easier said than done, but you keep beating a dead horse.

As an IC, I have tried many times to find skilled, qualified people to help me. If I had a dime for every time that didn't work out, I could retire. The fact is, I DO take my laptop on vacations--much to the dismay of my family--but that's the only way the work can and will get done IN A QUALITY MANNER.


Unfortunately, American workers are pricing themselves out of the market with both their hourly wage demands, vacation/sick time, insurance benefits, etc., and the work is going to the lowest bidder. 


Sounds like a load of horse puckey.
The ONLY way I can see that, and I highly doubt it, is if her docs have mostly standard exams that give her a HUGE boost in lines.

On eScription I did a group of cancer docs who really had pretty standard exams so I could EDIT 1000 lph easily but noooo way could I straight type 600 lph.
Good for you but I hope you get off your high horse
i agree with your post -- however, you just don't seem to get it -- CIRCUMSTANCES happen -- my s/o and I had something happen last month to where he had to renew a license for his work -- had it renewed and on PAPER, however, his company said they wanted the "hard plastic copy" he has to carry a gun to work and the state and federal government took their sweet time -- he got laid off, applied for unemployment, got a couple of checks for a WHOPPING $275 a week!!! -- Finally, last week got a call from his employer "even though you legally can't carry a gun right now, we have a position" -- this week the PROPER paperwork came in, he got rehired, but LOST ALL his senority. I hope you are wonderful and yes, we DO live within our means, we use ATM cards etc and I balance my checkbook but who the heck are YOU to judge!!!!
I hate to use mare's urine - think of the poor horse! but
it's the only thing that works for me. I have tried the *natural* stuff and ended up with either a bad tummy ache or nothing at all. It's the night sweats that I can't handle. Every night waking up drenched, unable to sleep. The doc convinced me it was a quality of life issue and basically, I wasn't having any, so I'm back on the very lowest dose. I hate it because of the horses and it doesn't cut out the hot flashes completely, but it helps.

The drug companies are too worried about men not being able to keep a hard on to explore the comfort of women. This research crap they are always handing us is just that, crap. They are looking for the big bucks. period.
Pat Day retires from horse racing -- It is a sad day for race fans everywhere! We wish him the best

THOSE GREEDY MTSOS AND THE BEATING OF DEAD HORSE BY QADRAGONLADY

Yes they are greedy and hire the cheapest they can get by with.  They are the ones who took over what used to be transcription companies owned by women.  They saw a chance to make some easy money and that is the bottom line.  They checked us all out, moved in like vultures and offered our clients free equipment, discounted work for a year, and then it has turned into this mess that we see now with offshoring, bickering, low wages, and on and on.  Now they are overcharging the clients that were unfortunate enough to fall for the line of garbage when theyear switched over to the "bigger techno MTSO" who really were unprepared, as far as I am concerned, for what they took on.  Look where we are now, offshoring, and on and on and on.  Sigh. 


Another thing I would like to see is QA departments policing themselves.  I pulled out 22 binders filled with templates, samples, etc. from 10 different sources and guess what I found?  Mistakes by the boatload.  These are samples that were sent out to MTs by QA departments to "go by" - how hilarious. These were companies with great reputations and some are currently in business using the same templates, the same samples, etc.   The temples were to be used "verbatim" and the MT is to insert any changers by the dictator, but all else was to be left.  One had cc as cc's (gasp) and wrong tenses (gasp), 7.0 instead of 7, and on and on.  Some were horrendous and beyond belief and were handed out by QA departments. 


One client that I do business with has five QA people and none of them agree with the other.  They all have their own "style" as they put it.  So, it just depends on who is on if they pull your report for a once-over or you have a blank.  Then,, the politics goes like this:  They all want the MTs to send the QAs you got from other QA people to THEM (the QA person who did not QA that report).  That is like QA doing QA on QA.  Sounds like maybe extra careful?   No, they then send it to their supervisor trying to get the other QA persons fired.  Nice colleague interaction going there, right? 


I only go by BOS almost completely if the work is hospital because of the audits that go on with JCAH or whatever they call themselves these days.  Then, sometimes the doctors don't agree with JCAH and want it their own way, which may not be the way some QA wants it.  The bottom line is I tell them from the outset that I do it the right way, the way the one who signs the document wants it.  That is the bottom line.  If the hospital complaints I refer them back to the dictator.  When I have one of those I put comments on the page for my future reference and that of QA.  I only violate the dictators wishes when he or she wants me to transcribe against HIPAA regulations (like the patient's name, address, and phone number, etc.)  I then comment that the information was dictated, but not transcribable due to HIPAA regulations.

Josie (aussie), Traveler & Lovie Dovie (cats), horse
is ScoobyDo. Traveler was found as a teeny kitten, lost on a rural road by daughter who was jogging. Lovie made a forlorn sound when i was driving down street and i got out to see if she was hurt. She crawled right up onto my shoulder and snuggled under my chin (still prefers that). She was very young, starving and pregnant. I tried to find another home (at the time already had 2 cats), but so glad that didn't work out...Scoo was already named... :)
A gross line is anything on a line is a line. A line set at 65 characters means it sm
has 1-inch margins on each side. The maximum number of characters on that line would be 65 and that includes spaces. If there is 1 character on that line it is a line.

A standard 65-character line usually consists of 65 characters with spaces unless, of course, the employer does not pay for spaces and then it would be 65-characters without spaces.
Anything on the line makes up a line even if just one letter or number. Every line of print is a

Gross line = each line on page counts as a line, even if it's only 1 word. nm

Gross line means anything on a line is counted as a line.

You can get an idea in the difference using documents you have already created, assuming you're working in Word. Simply open a document and check the properties. Click on the statistics tab and you will see the number of lines as well as characters with and without spaces. If you're currently getting paid by the line and a line is 65-characters with spaces, do the math and see how that number of lines compares with the number of lines in your stats.


One thing to keep in mind: if you have a blank line between paragraphs, instead of hitting the enter key twice, format your document to give the appearance of blank lines between paragraphs.


Gross line, also including blank lines because my line rate is so low. It all works out in the wash.
x
$.06 gross line / .70 = approximately $.0857 cents per 65 character line.

A gross line is anything on a line versus 65 gross characters per net line the other way.  You make more money working for the gross line than for the 65 gross character line, as long as the line rate's OK.


A gross line is any line with typewritten characters on it - no matter how long or SM
how short.  So your gross lines may be longer than 65 characters, but you get credit even for a line as short as "Sincerely,".  If your gross lines are not being counted that way, then you are not being counted on gross lines and are probably getting screwed.  I'd look into that if I were you.
Yes if gross line or 65 character line with spaces....Good Deal!!! nm
