You guys are awesome. Thank you so much
for your support and helpful suggestions. I don't know what I'd do without wonderful MTs on the boards. *SMILE*
Thanks... you guys/gals are awesome!...nm

Thanks guys! It's just hard. . .sm

Very small neighborhood.  Houses are very close together.  We've lived here almost 7 years and we all know each other and chat and the neighbors help each other out, no matter what. 


These people just scare me because everything is drawn up tight and the "skinny" woman of the house seems very nervous.  I've only seen her "husband" once and he looks as if he may be the thing that makes her afraid.


I have gotten to the point, however, where I will make some phone calls.  The poor dog finally stopped barking, but my daughter went out back with her friends to swim in the pool (behind an 8 foot stockade fence) and all you can hear is "yap, yap, yap."


Geeeeeesh.


Merry Christmas to all hard working guys & gals in the MT industry!

thanks guys. I've tried the SafeType
Spent over 300 dollars on it and its collecting dust.  So i'm afraid to waste more money.  I was thinking of the Ergoflex so I  can spread them apart as much as possible. 
Best response I've ever heard! AWESOME! -nm

Please, guys, surely you've seen these people's work SM
and are appalled at the very low quality. When training, I worked alongside one of them. The quality was atrocious, but she put out vast quantities of it, moving many reports a day for the hospitals and making lots of money for herself and her employer, so her job was actually very secure in spite of the many complaints that came in from the unfortunate clinicians who received her work.

But her speed cannot even begin to compare with that of a computer, or couldn't. I imagine she's safely retired now and doesn't have to face the change-or-get-out that will be required of other content slobs.
I've tried this before but it was WAY too hard for me.
Yeah, it sounded too good to be true. I wonder if the doctor has to train the software or if a Transcriptionist can train it.
I've got my fingers crossed; makes it hard to type!nm

I've owned cheaper chairs and learned the hard way.

The old saying that you get what you pay for is true when it comes to these cheap chairs! My back always hurt and I was having to buy a new chair at least yearly. You do the math; I've already had the $1000 chair five years and I quit having the backaches five years ago. This chair is no where close to wearing out and will last me at least another five years, probably more. So, if you think that spending $200 every year on a cheap chair is worth it, you go right ahead; I didn't hear anything but thanks for the OP for my suggestion.


I've lost more than one hard drive on Dell computers
That's the message you get normally if the hard drive if fried.  I just called Dell and they diagnosed the problem and sent me a new hard drive and I returned the bad one. Is yours still under warranty?

not a bit homophobic. love queer guys for straight guys.
these guys are clever and witty and have good taste.  they are who they are.  not a problem.  i have problems with boy-men who are currently trendy now.  that's my taste.  and it's kind of scary that women are attracted to these unisex boy-men culturally. no big deal unless you make it one.  this is a board to exchange ideas right?
If it rains hard, the wind blows hard and there are trees
nearby, it snows heavily it will mess up the signal.  The speed is not constant, sometimes as slow as dial-up, but at least still connected.  Many companies will not allow satellite. 
So, you think it is okay for hard-working MTs to earn 7-8 cpl for their hard work?? nm

I use EXText with my current job and I've used at a couple of other jobs I've had. I've ne

used DocQscribe, but I have used Meditech, Cerner, Vianeta, the Precyse platform (I can't remember the name), Dolbey, and  Lanier platform I think was called Cequence (?). 


Out of all the different platforms I have typed on, I have liked EXText the best.  In my opinion, it's very user friendly, easy to learn, and I really like ESP which is the built in abbreviation expander.  Plus it is very easy to create your own normals which I love.  My fingers literally never leave the keyboard because there are macro keys for everything.  You can use your mouse if you prefer or learn the function macros.  I love it.  I think I'm more productive on EXText than with any other platform.


you are awesome...
thank you, for answering, and in such a clear-cut way. you have certainly given me food for thought.

I have about 15 years to go, and am inclined like you for the old #2.

now, with your system, the Dragon, you bought it yourself? and you make tons more lines than without it? that is the system I was considering asking my employer if they might offer.

does your employer know you use it, do they approve?

that is what my boyfriend had suggested (excuse if it was not clear), the systems for personal use, like you have, and to use it with my job for a national. just like you do, he said why not dictate it rather than type it yourself.

you really find it makes you more money?

thanks, for letting me pick your brain as it were...

best to you.
Awesome!! You are welcome.
One of my favorites is the "Ties Suck" tie (written in binary). Wish I knew someone who hated ties!!

You made my day!! Finally, I did a good deed LOL
To each their own, and yes, he is AWESOME!nm

Thats awesome!

You are awesome! sm
Congratulations for changing your life for the better!

Remember what the word "decision" means: It literally means "to cut off from." That's not flimsy like a New Year's resolution that people break. You made a decision. The day may come that you get weak and tired and think maybe things weren't so bad or maybe he has changed. Be READY FOR IT and plan now that you'll stand by your *decision*.

Not anywhere near Illinois, unfortunately. Keep reaching out. Call the local YWCA. If it's like here, they'll offer free counseling and help to people, often the majority of which end up being abused women trying to leave their husbands.

You are a wise woman. I hope you realize that. No shame in asking for help. People want to help you! This will all be history someday. Don't you already feel stronger? I bet it feels pretty darn good. Stay with it!
WOW! Thank you! You are awesome!!!
You did not leave a place to email you at...I am going to bed as it is late where I am at, but if you include it later, I will for sure email you and maybe we can encourage one another..I am REALLY, REALLY wanting to get this weight off of my mid-section....THANKS AGAIN!!!  Have a GREAT night/morning! 
Awesome--thanks!!!!

Awesome!!
I love the Idol tours, they really put on a good show. They are not coming close by me for this one though, so I am bummed out!!
This is awesome, thank you!
THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to answer my post.  I got kind of depressed at first when everyone said the price was too low, but I've read over the suggestions and the encouragement and, well, I feel a lot better.  So, THANK YOU so much to everyone.  Some of you offered that I could e-mail you for more help, and I will do that!  All your posts have given me some good insight and some things to think about, so I really appreciate it.  You guys are the best! 
Awesome!!!! nm

That's awesome! sm

You always give great advice on this board! 


I've been doing this 20 years, and always wanted to have my own accounts/business, but I've been afraid of failure.  This week I started sending out letters to local physicians.  I'm feeling good about it.  I think I can do it now. 


I love the mentoring idea.  Someone mentored me 20 years ago when I had no experience whatsoever.  So, whenever I get some accounts, I think I'm going to do that as well.


Thanks for the inspiration!


Wow - that's awesome!
Congrats on landing the account too! 
Awesome..
Yes, we usually go to Disney World..but we just went to Florida (for a cruise in May) and it's stinking hot so we didnt want to go there until like next spring. California is pretty warm this time of year but it's not humid hot like FL..Vegas is our first love.. We just got back from there a few weeks ago. We go like every 3 months and I, of course, take my computer there too LOL.. gotta mix business with pleasure and I certainly couldnt afford my passion, TRAVEL, if I didnt work some while I was there. I am addicted to WORK and also TRAVEL.. People always say..you work too much..70-90 hours a week but the same people say I travel too much..go figure.. My motto.."I do work hard.. but I play HARDER
Awesome!!!
Doin the happy dance for you right now.  You should be pleased as punch.
That'd be awesome if
You could have it populate dates and such from Outlook.
Wow it is awesome to know that he actually knows there is someone on the other end...

Awesome!!
This is wonderful! I cannot thank you enough... I am going to contact Humana. All I need is to cover myself and my son for Rx and office. I will let you know how it goes, but I have a feeling you may have saved the day for me... Thank you SO much!
Awesome!
Thanks so very much for posting that. And for the melatonin, I was wondering if it was seratonin or melatonin, this helps. You are right. I wonder what's the difference if we get sleep during the days? I am going to read up on this definitely. If the insurance companies or anyone else takes advantage of this, the workforce will decline at night. What about the 24-hour staff decline many service organizations need? Like hospitals or transcriptionists, police officers, nurses, EMTs, etc. Even the 7-11! Some people can't afford a hike in insurance. I know I can't with a family to support. Well, maybe we'll get better differential now than we have already (doubt it). Oh well, can't worry about it because I am sure there is a study somewhere that says worrying leads to cancer too. Thanks again for the link.
AWESOME!
You are very clever. Thanks for bringing a smile to my tired face. and Merry Christmas to you, too
You are AWESOME!
Keep up the good work!
Awesome!!!
Now I can keep my danish warm without having to take time out to go downstairs to reheat it in the microwave. That will save me a bunch of time and translate into increased productivity! Isn't technology grand?
awesome
I had no idea that could be done.  I am new to ExpressScribe as well.  I am learning more about it everyday.  This is super helpful to me.  Thanks!
Awesome thank you
