Wait, I think there is a misunderstanding ...

In Reply to: MQ - direct deposit always in acct. Fri. if pay date falls on Sun. anyone having this problem 2day? - whoopie

The company can "pay" on the 10th and 25th as expected.

When those funds become available to you depends on how often your bank updates its deposit files. Nowadays (yes, I know - I hate to use that word..lol), banks are in such competition that most build their deposite files at least once daily (first thing in the morning) and some twice daily (late evening as well).

MQ has the money there and your bank can "see" in their banking system the upcoming transaction as soon as it is transferred, which is usually 2-3 days ahead of the "pay date". Your bank must update its files for you to have that money accessible by ATM, debit card, or online banking. Often a bank will go ahead and cash your check at a teller's window when they can "see" the pending transaction...but until the files are built and filed, access to that deposit will not be available.

Call your bank and ask to talk to the bookkeeping department and have them tell you how often they build their deposit files. It shouldn't take more than about 1-1/2 hours once they build the files for you to have access to your money.

Maybe there is a misunderstanding.

I wasn't complaining.  I simply posted my opinion to the poll, to which someone asked why I thought the economy wasn't so great.  I replied with facts:  The cost of food HAS gone up.  The cost of prescriptions HAS gone up.  The cost of gas HAS gone up.  The cost of medical insurance HAS gone up, and they were saying on the news (all stations) that consumers can expect up to 71% increase in heating bills this winter.  Yet more and more medical transcription companies are going VR and the MTs are taking cuts in pay.  Those are all facts that cannot be disputed.  The rent factor may not have increased everywhere, but in S. Fla. it has gone through the roof because of a housing shortage. 


Why is it that someone (you?) can state that because unemployment has gone down the economy is so wonderful, but when I show that it isn't quite true, I'm complaining?   Does that mean that every time Bush gets on the TV and talks about all the problems in the Gulf Coast  or in the middle east he's complaining??  Since you keep adding to this string, are you complaining too?  I'm happy for ya that your bills haven't increased.   But, I don't quite believe you either.  Unless in the last 4 years you haven't bought any food, prescriptions, or gas, and unless you don't have health insurance, your costs have gone up too.  You may not be part of that 4.9% on unemployment, but your cost of living has increased. 


Yes. I think there has been a misunderstanding. (SM)
What should NOT be posted here are other chat/posting forums for MTs. Other MT websites are not to be promoted.

Informational sites for drugs, terminology, etc., absolutely! Share away!
Maybe a misunderstanding?
I didn't say it's not worth it to me to make the effort. I'm just saying that we should ask for/demand in both our professional and our personal lives, to deal with people we can communicate with.
Misunderstanding?
I kinda got the feeling the OP was referring to the posters who try to tear other posters (ones who are happy with their employer, their job, offer positive suggestions, etc). If you read some of the threads, you'll see precisely what I'm referring to - pretty much comments which hold the sole purpose of belittling or humiliating other posters, or even straight out calling them liars, etc. It's disturbing, to say the least.

I don't think the OP meant everyone should pretend to be happy when they aren't or that someone shouldn't be able to vent if they need to. There's a huge difference between venting such as you have done and viciously attacking the character of another poster.

Anyone who needs to vent should be able to do so here, and should be able to expect some support and perhaps even some helpful advice. To me, one of the best features of this board is the ability to do just that - Vent, let off some steam, get some advice or at least a few shoulders to momentarily cry on, and then carry on.

I'm so sorry you're at such an unhappy place right now and hope things start to look better for you VERY soon. Venting such as you've done should always be encouraged. Sometimes we only have each other to vent to, and sometimes the anonymity of it makes it easier to do so. We're all in the same proverbial boat and should be able to turn to our fellow/sister MTs for encouragement.

Best of luck to you, and I truly hope things start getting brighter for you!!!
I think you are misunderstanding what
EMR is. We've had EMR for years in most hospitals and the bigger clinics. It just means the records are stored on computers where the physicians can access them from anywhere rather than having to have the paper chart. It has nothing to do with HOW the records get there in the first place. It doesn't mean the doctors will dictate directly onto the system with no editing, etc. I don't see this or VR as a threat because we all know it's impossible for doctors to do this without us correcting it & they certainly aren't going to want to waste their valuable time doing it either...
I think you are also misunderstanding
If you are working for an MT Service of course it is mandatory that you work more than 1 account.  The fact that you are so meticulous in producing a professional legal document is what is slowing you down of course, but that is a good thing!!  Now you just have to do that on other accounts as well when requested.  We all do.  You are building on your knowledge and skill level.  I was typing on 5 accounts at my last job.  You have to work where the work is needed and I don't see how you can **legally** tell your employer you do not want to do that.  If you stick with it, you will become faster - just make sure you stay accurate.  This is not abuse from your employer.  This is certainly expected of all MTs.
I was misunderstanding that as an interpretation of it but..
I still have to go back to the BOS because, let's face it, that's what 99% of us are supposed to use as our rules, whether one agrees with it or not, and more than likely it is what will be used for QA.
"Though they represent a plural quantity, units of measure are collective singular nouns and take singular verbs." BOS, third edition, page 97. Since the OP wanted to know a QA answer, I think I'd stick with BOS.

You are misunderstanding what a collective noun is.

"Some nouns refer to a group but are singular in form. These nouns are called collective nouns. In American usage, a collective noun takes a singular verb when it refers to the collection considered as a whole."


Your problem is you are not understanding what a collective noun is.  A collective nouns are a special class of nouns that name groups [things] composed of members [usually people].  Example:  Team, class, Army, etc.


Twenty units of Pitocin were given.  --- Still correct because units is not a collective noun.  If "unit" meant a group of units, then you be correct.  However, unit is singular and units means more than one unit.


I think maybe I am misunderstanding, but Arrendale is a software program
something like ChartScript, I thought.   Maybe I am wrong, but I can't see Giselle outsourcing to India or anywhere else, but who knows, maybe.   I have been wrong before.
no misunderstanding at all. you want things your way and you run crying to "mom" or authority
I don't really mind your posts, but what you are doing now makes me wonder about your sanity. It's like my kids when they don't get their way. They come crying to me and want me to intervene and they try to cause trouble for the person who won't give in. That's what you are doing. You lost me on this battle Dano.
You're misunderstanding how toll free call in
services work.  You can't just get some long distance service at 3 cents a minute. Where are the doctors supposed to leave their dictation?  We have software that answers, prompts for the dictator ID and password, then keypad functions the doctor uses to leave their dictation.  Then, those dictated files are provided to the transcription service via FTP.  So, our service, at 9 cents per minute is the cheapest on the market offering these features and we do not require a large amount of minutes per month like other toll free call in services do.
Since you are new, just wait. Newbies have to wait. sm
Just because you said a "doctor's office" that narrows it down.  No national work for private doctor's offices.  It is all acute care.  Just wait.  They will let you know how you are doing.
Sometimes it's best to wait, sometimes not
I guess it all depends on the person and the mood.  I've done both.  We most always have more than one pet, and this last time when Sally died (150 pound part St. Bernard and part mastiff), the house was so empty without a dog.  We only had my cat left.  So we waited about 1 1/2months and finally couldn't stand it so we went to the pound and got Bubba, part bloodhound and part German shepherd.  He would love a "sibling" but I had to put my old cat through another change just yet.  Soon, though.
I can't wait either!!
He starts back the 24th of this month, so only 7 more working days for him to be home with me-I love having him home but he is only going to be in first grade so he gets a bit antsy but luckily I start at 5:00 a.m. so am pretty much done by noon or so.  I can get so much more work done when he is not asking for a snack every 5 minutes -gotta love em though. 
Can't wait, but
I haven't heard anything yet!
Wait a second...JK, JJ...Which one is it???...

At least if you don't want to post as a former something, don't change names in the middle of the thread.  Someone might get bent over it,     and we sure don't want anyone getting upset over something trivial now, do we??? 


Wait and see what happens.

Can't wait!!!! sm
My DH has sole custody of SD11 (and SS7). She hasn't shown much interest in make-up yet, but I'm sure it's coming! We were visiting a friend the other night and SD11 met the next-door-neighbor girl who is 14 and dresses gothic. SD told me about it and all her skull stuff. I just told her she looks so pretty in her pink and I hope she keeps on looking her cute self. She agreed! Whew, for now!
Wait a second...
What I am saying is that the ones in gated communities ARE the guilty ones. THEY are the ones who could afford and had the means to be prepared. THEY are the ones in the lines!!

The ones who have no money or means suffer at the expense of the ones who DO have the ability to prepare.

That is what totally baffles me is that why didn't more people prepare!!!???


Wait!
I'm sorry, but no, I haven't heard from this other company.  I would encourage you to wait for them or apply elsewhere.  MQ is in a state of change right now and nobody who works for them is happy right now.  There are some big changes afoot as of 1/1/06 and everyone is speculating what will happen (MedQuist NEVER tells us what is going on - we learn everything about this company by rumors and posting on this board - think twice about going with a company that keeps their employees in the dark!)  If the first company doesn't call you back, there are plenty of other GOOD jobs, but I think you would be making a terrible mistake to go with MQ.  Many, many MTs are LEAVING MQ right now.
He says he'd want me to wait until they are both 18 - sm
They are 5 & 7 now (I'm 40). He's afraid of my marrying a child molester if they were young. I told him remarrying would be the last thing on my mind and I doubt I'd be running out and doing it any time soon (or even date) should he died any time soon. (he's 46).
Cant wait to see....nm

I know, can't wait.
I don't ever watch CBS except for this time of year.  I have watched BB since the beginning.  I went online the other day to see when it is starting.  I can't wait to see who the candidates are.  This one should be good!
I would not wait to see a doc sm
It  could be a blood clot.  Let us know how you make out.   
Thank you both so much...I cant wait...nm

To see the URL behind this blatantly offensive equipment he's attempting to plug on a MEDICAL Transcriptionist WEBSITE.

Why isn't this guy banned?
Oh wait...
What I mean is, the doctor may not even be aware that his/her account is SR. I don't know if they are telling the clients or not. The doctor dictates as per normal. The SR is done at the MTSO by the ME using the SR software that "listens" to the recorded dictation and spits out a document to edit.
wait for your first job

I already had a pedal and ear buds when I was job hunting for my first job, but my plan was not to purchase anything else until I landed my first job at home. I'm glad I did since the company I work for uses Bayscribe and everything was free. I only do office notes, so the need to buy references is also going to be put off until I get an account that is harder. Even then, we will see. I did purchase the new edition of the Book of Style and that has been helpful. You never know what a company may want you to have in regards to word expanders, equipment, and references. I don't think it will hurt you as a new person to wait. You will be lucky if anyone responds positively to your job hunt as a newbie. I contacted around 100 companies, some more than once, and I got one reply.


If you already have a job, then disregard my comment. Maybe my advice isn't what someone else would do, but why spend money if you don't have to. You may be buying the wrong stuff.


and get paid for every um, uh, wait, etc...nm

just wait, i'm sure they'll get to all of us
that is how some of the nastiness starts on this board, too many rumors and not enough facts. When MQ calls you, if you want you can post your facts, don't rely on others for their info
I would wait until after the first of the year...sm
Not only because it may be difficult to find a company that will allow a new employee time off, but because you'll be in unknown territory with presumably a lower line count until you get used to it...which means less money...not good at Christmastime.

This reminds of the quote from Hamlet...
"...we would rather bear those ills we have than to fly to others we know not of...thus, conscience does make cowards of us all."

Still, I would play the coward until after Christmas. Just me, though.

Can't wait for the Sopranos (sm)
That's the only reason I keep my HBO.  Does anyone know when repeats of the entire Nip/Tuck will be on?  I missed a season, I think, and my daughter has never watched it at all.  With all my raving about what a good show it is, now she wants to see it.
But I will wait for the video (sm)
Like I always do.  I think it looks really good from the previews and what I have read about it.
Didn't see it yet, will probably wait sm
for Netflix. I was more interested in seeing it when thinking it was set in the late 1800s/early 1900s. Since it is set in modern times, I'll wait.


Now wait just a minute!
"The poor" ?
Don't wait for them to give you what they want. sm
Ask for what you want. Actually, ask for a little more than what you want. You may get it, but you'll probably get slightly less. Either way you come out a winner. Rare that they'll give you nothing at all. That makes them look like the bad guy. Usually it's in their power to give you something. Something's better than nothing, right? Go get 'em!
Yes it was...can't wait for next week!!!-nm

I think you're right. I can't wait to get out of (s/m)
this stinking office and start working at home. I don't like people, so I know I won't get lonely. I can take short breaks to do useful things, like vacuuming or laundry, instead of sitting in the lunch room munching cookies. It's noisy at the office, my home is QUIET. I can see my pets more than just a couple hours a day. I can eat a healthy lunch and breakfast. No more wasting time with makeup, or wondering what to wear. No annoying coworkers/boss, etc. Yes, you are right, and I for one am looking forward to the peace & solitude.
Wait til he goes thru a tunnel!! ;-) nm

Why not wait for the Drake?

Ellen Drake is putting out a version of Saunders Pharmaceutical on a CD later this year.  Why not wait and get something that does not have the licensing hassles that the Stedman's version has?  It's about time that we MTs stopped supporting companies that make it difficult to deal with installing software on our computers after a crash, or make it difficult for us to use software on multiple computers.  Some of us have laptops, a computer in our home office, AND a computer in the bedroom.  We should not have to call the software vendor to get a code every time we have a crash or upgrade a drive.


 


 


LOL....can't wait for vacation!

Still here. Now just wait 1 minute!!!!!!
I never said you should say that Laura Bush is a great role model. She obviously is NOT in your opinion. You are entitled to that; however, the thread was asking who people felt were good female role models. The poster who started the thread did not say "Please, anyone who does not like one of these named role models PLEASE, PLEASE turn this into a nasty thread, PLEASE."
The people who named Laura Bush had every right to post her and also had every right for you to keep your opinion to yourself rather than spoil and ruin their post. You could start a separate thread asking who everyone felt were negative female influences. Then you could name Laura Bush. You just like to turn every single thread on this board into one of your nasty little rallies.
Geez. Get a life. You really have some issues sugar -- no make that -- sour foot. LOL.
Don't wait any longer...sm
contact an attorney.  You don't have to pay the attorney until he gets your money, then it's a certain percentage.  I know it's a killer to have to pay, but if you don't you're probably not going to ever be paid.  I had to sue a client for 3K.  I still walked away with a good hunk of the money and my pride.  It was well worth what I had to give the attorney. 
can't wait.....thx for the info! (nm)

Yeah, but wait until he gets to the ROS. :)


What a joke!


I think you should hang in there and wait for

People like her don't last long, the ones who appear to let their *title* go to their head(s).  If I were you, and I am not you, I would hang in there for a bit longer and see.  Take the best and leave the rest - good salary because of the benefits and just convince yourself that the witch will be gone someday and hopefully soon. 


Best of luck whichever way you choose!! 



i personally would wait
i have HEARD that it is first for gamers. dont know if that is the targeted market or not but either way i would wait until all the dust settles.  unless, of course, you feel you are getting your money's worth with tons of patches and fixes 
How long do you wait?

This recently happened to me. I received an email saying I passed the test and that they would call me shortly after they found an account to put me on. How long is a reasonable time to wait? How long should I wait to follow up? I don't want to be a bother, but I also really want this job!


 


Wait, are you saying that you work for
a company who lets you get in any of those ways? They all post DSL or cable Only. You mean at some companies, it doesn't matter how you connect? Say I wasn't traveling, but just couldn't get DSL, could I use WiFi instead at home? Thanks.
Just wait until that baby
turns into a TODDLER!!! There goes yer time.
I guess I will have to wait and see about that. n/m
