you can expect 12.00 - 15.00 hour average, pretty much nation wide.

It's pretty much world wide that if you have no body you have no crime. Scott Peterson was arrested
Laci's body was found, NOT BEFORE. Not rocket science here. How to you prosecute someone w/o a dead body?
That was pretty funny - but I have to say that was the worst halftime show I have ever seen! nm

Worst types for me are oncology and ENT. Worst dialect
definitely Arabic, Indian, Pakistani.  No problem with Asian though.  Of course, warp speed, mush mouth American dictation can be the pits, also. 
It is MQ-wide for DQS users?
Well, I sure would hope it would be for SE's too, as some of us also use DQS.  I havent heard anything, nor gotten a letter or check..Im wondering is it MQ-wide?  All of MQ that uses DQS?  Or could it be just certain regional offices did not have the count of lines set up right?
What letter? And is it company wide

or just in a certain office?


I don't live in a double wide
Oh honey, you got it all wrong. I have the TRIPLE WIDE right next to YOUR DOUBLE WIDE.

Don't be jealous and all because you don't got the triple wide!!!


Usually, it is a system-wide choice SM
that was made and the hospital (one that is part of a greater health care system) must go with the vendor chosen by the system. 
21 wide screen and I love it!! (nm)

My eyes are wide open. Believe me, I know his
faults better than anyone. I can't keep religion of it, though, because it is a huge part of my life. It's not a crutch, it's simply a way of life. I, too, wish you the best. I know we all have our opinions and may not always agree, but that's okay, too. I hope you have a happy 4th, too!
Now my momma used a 3" wide wooden cheeseboard on our
behinds.  That puppy hurt!
AsUtype ~ system wide expander

I LOVE my wide screen. I will never go back. That being said....
I had to do some tweaking of the settings. I went to START, display, and then the setting tab (far right hand side). I have my screen resolution set on the 2nd notch from the word "less" on the left hand side. That is my home monitor.

For work, I have the same resolution setting and then, because we use Chartscript.NET, I can set my resolution different than the default and I set it at 105. That seems to work best for me.

I have also tried maximizing and minimizing the window sizes too. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. I think you need to tweak your settings until you find the one that works best.
You could always try doing a system-wide search for a patient you know is on the file and maybe

You undercut yourself, which drives prices down industry-wide. sm
For a hospital, NEVER go under $0.16 per line to start. Most will want to negotiate and the lowest should be 0.14 per line.
No wonder they claim they want to (sm)
make us happy!! We are making them REAL happy!!
I did not say not to claim it

I did not advise her not to claim it, she can do what she wants.  A company can expense out without filing a 1099.  I have expensed out without doing 1099's before and have never been questioned by the IRS.  In fact you have to notify the IRS that you will be filing 1099's.  Do all hairdressers report all of their "cash" tips?   I suppose you could do 1000 jobs at $500 each to make your 50K per year and not claim it but I doubt that you could find that many jobs.   All we are talking about here is one job and that is what I based my answer on not the hypothetical "thousands of jobs under $500".  I doubt that the amount she made would change her "owed taxes" except for social security and even then not that much.  Sp again -- she needs to do what she feels is the correct thing to do and if she loses sleep over not reporting a couple of hundred dollars then report it but do not expect a 1099. 


i was taught opposite, lol, but then at another company they preferred all disc; wide varieties. n

Well, it is called the World Wide Web! Sorry, your post made me laugh! No offense... but duh! nm

I think I'm pretty bright and pretty good, too, but
I am not a CMT. I am a medical transcriptionist who enjoys her job very much (most days). I have chosen not to pursue certification simply because I cannot afford to do so. I believe the certification is a nice thing to have, but I don't believe it is necessary for employment or for excellence in my job. If you can afford it, go for it. If you can't, don't feel too bad. You can still take pride in and do a very good job without it.
Those who claim to have so much compassion....

say so only to make themselves feel superior.  You think you're better because you say what you say.   But how much do you do?  When Bush cut taxes, did you feel  so strongly that it was a mistake that you insisted to continue to send in the former higher Clinton taxes?  Or do you think that only those horrid selfish "rich" people should pay?  Sounds bites and lip service. 


claim was denied.
esd said that i was not laid off because of no work so that i could not claim. you have to be laid off because of no work or company shut down (like for inventory, etc.).

no dice. :(
I have my DH claim 0 and single, but we also have
extra $$ taken out of his check.   We have been hit with a penalty of under $60.00 the past 2 years for not having enough taken out for state though.   Hopefully this year we have taken out enough.  
New studies claim..sm..
cell phones are perfectly safe to use in non-clinical areas, such as waiting rooms and hallways.  Just Google hospitals "cell phones".  Tons of info.
Sheri, can you at least file a claim
for the automatic $100 of insurance UPS has? I know it won't help immediately, but perhaps you can recover something.
There are scam emails that claim to come from
Gotta be careful.
You claim it in 2009. If you did not receive
it in 2008, it does not matter it was owed, only what you received in the calendar year.
I'm afraid I'd have to see the evidence for that claim. sm
It would really take all the planets being lined up to see that kind of average production among that many people.
Don't let him stiff you for the $ -- file a claim

Seems like you're over-reacting to something that you claim not to care about.

If you paid with Paypal you can file a claim with them, just do it before

30 days is up.   If you paid via credit card you can file a claim with the credit card company, even if you paid via Paypal with a credit card.   You can also file a fraud charge with the U.S. postal service if the item went through them.    With the post office it would take a while to get your money though.   You can also notify the police in her state/county, though most likely they will take a report and that is it, unless this is a habitual thing and others have complained.  


Hopefully the administrator will be able to help you.  


You pay your home state tax, whatever percentage that is. You can claim
deductions for anything associated to your job....i.e., a percentage of your utilities, expenses such as supplies needed to do your job, etc.  Save all receipts for any of those items that you purchase related to the job, and I think the 1099 would be sufficient. 
their own issue. A lot of people claim bigotry to

If you think you can claim a part of rent as propety tax you can't.
It probably asks if you rent because then there would be no property taxes to claim.  If you owned then there would be property taxes.  It s/l it is walking you through the steps.  You can claim property taxes for vehicles, but you have incurred no property taxes as you don't own your residence.   I'm sure property taxes are considered when they decide how much to charge for rent, but who ever owns the property is paying the taxes and not you. 
if you made less than 600 dollars they don't legally have to claim it.
Just found that out also as last year my IC job only started in October and didn't make enough for taxes. This year will be different though. My employer said consider it free money. Can't argue with that. Checked with H&R Block and they confirmed it.
Their claim to be 'not-for-profit' cracks me up.
They're making $$ hand over fist at those seminars. Love the photo of the race horses at the top. Bet more than a few of them own some. Oh - and most companies with an LLC behind them are in other countries. Like India and China, to name a couple.
Thanks Melinda. Certainly doesn't work like most claim. NM.

How to claim Social Security for part time

Hello. I have a few small part time transcription accounts and want to know how I can claim them so I can accumulate time for Social Security benefits. I'm an independent contractor using 1099.  


Thanks,


Terry


Yeah. What's their point. What do they have to worry about. You can't file a claim against t
I think they need to get their facts straight.
My claim was denied b/c officially, I was still employed but we were out of work. Crazy. nm

I bought a desktop and laptop in December. Can I claim on taxes..
and is there a limit to how often you purchase computers for your work? A friend thought you could buy one a year and claim it.  I bought the laptop and desktop in December and already hate the laptop, but I hate to purchase another one if I cannot claim it this year. Oh, also if I charged the computers on my Dell account in December but did not start making payments in January 2006 can I still claim for 2005 taxes. Thanks.
John Stossel's new book makes this same claim. Interesting. nm

You'll hear this claim in all fields by "the suits"

I've said it before and I'll say it again...back that sh^t up with a specific name or a place so there can be actual consequences.  I can throw anything in quotes and say I heard it from somewhere or someone.  It holds no water and only serves to get people workedup for an invisible fight.


Am I doubting what she heard is true?  Maybe, maybe not.  It can't be proven because there is no factual evidence provided.  However, my mother was an LPN and she always said her higherups referred to her as nothing more than an overpaid candystriper or overpaid a$$ wiper.  My father, a machine mechanic, said he was referred to as an overpaid janitor.  It's a wicked old and wicked lame argument to get the reader or listener riled up to basically do nothing and it's amateur stuff.  But, that's just me. 


SHOW US THE NAMES!  Then we can gather our pitchforks, burning keyboards, and Betty Crocker aprons and go to war!



 


That's ridiculous to claim an entire state "did not use" the 4 main directions. sm
I understand if your little 'burg was folksy and everybody knew everybody, etc., but I assure you, without knowing what state you are speaking of, people in it used N, S, E, W.

It doesn't matter how many years you went to college, basic direction is taught in elementary school.

Right and left will change, the 4 directions are the same regardless of where you're coming from or which way you're facing.
You know where the sun comes up? That's east. That doesn't change. Anywhere. Any state.
I'm not bashing your state. The state is not at fault.
My MIL is the worst one too.

Her husband ignores her and every night they spend the evening with her in the breezeway watching some movie from 1950 and him watching porno in the living room.  He makes perverted remarks at waitresses, comments about the physical attrributes of every woman he sees, has made their 30-year-old daughter's friends his "imaginary girlfriends" (has pictures of himself with just about all of them and even calls some of them "his girlfriend"). 


Needless to say his wife has no self esteem whatsoever after almost 40 years of this.


However, she puts up with it and never says a word to him about it.  Then the nastiness comes out in other ways.  She's passive aggressive, mean, angry, frustrated and takes it out on anyone she can, which is why I just keep my distance.


Miserable, dysfunctional people. 


MQ at its worst could never ever
match the underhanded and disgusting way MTs and Editor staff were/are treated at HIS.  Colleen is a disgrace and the company is up for sale.  Former managers and CEO are suing the place .. give you a clue?  Run as fast as you possibly can away from Toledo!!
here's worst!!

whatever the complaint is... the patient will undergo bypass surgery!!


What is the worst job U have ever had?
Mine was working at Wendy's - ARGH! I was always stuck on fries, and believe me when summer would hit that was NOT a good place to be - I used to come home dripping with sweat, smelling like french fries and burgers and my hair always looked severely deformed and greasy from those stupid caps we had to wear!  I never made the grade as an order-taker, I'm afraid. I used to HATE customers coming in cuz it just meant more work for meeee!
Worst job. sm
The very worst job I ever had was working in a crab processing plant. Yep, blue crabs.

Now, top that! LOL
Worst Job
Was this school in Texas? I worked for one like that and quit after a couple of months. They would enroll the students, get all of the government money they could and then these people couldn't get a job if they wanted one after graduation. It was hard to even get them internships. I think the school was probably bought out for the new Dallas Cowboy Stadium that is going in - at least it was in the vicinity of that area - you could see The BallPark at Arlington or whatever the name of it is now from the school.
I need a car in the worst way
Anyone know the best place to start? My 1995 Bonneville has almost died on me. The car is in great cosmetic shape, but the new tires, fixing a window that won't roll down and putting a new air compressor (I think) is gonna cost me more than I think the are is worth... so I'm car shopping. I'd like a Maxima, Accord or Camry(a couple to three years old) for a good price but not sure where to get the best deal. Anybody have any recommendations?
