The "get over it" part. :) NM
..
The only way to "get rid of it" is to sign off and then on again.
You can hit the download another job button, but it will keep that STAT in your queue until you sign off.

There is no easy way to reject a job. Sorry!
Thanks - all I can say is "get your mammograms, ladies."
I do advise that if you have a chronic illness of any kind, keep your medical records with you and copies of your studies, get 2nd and maybe 3rd opinions. Know as much about your illness as possible. Don't leave it up to the staff/doctor.
I know the feeling! I don't have what it takes to "get rich quick."
So many people are charging other people for "information" or other useless garbage, but I can't scam other people. Work ethic and morals is all I've got. I haven't published a book yet. I couldn't find anything to sell on ebay. I have no imagination or real talent. So many other people have talent, skills and imagination. I'm not special at all. LOL
Get a Grip

Receiving your pay 30 days after you provided work isn't a problem for you?  I don't know about anyone else, but I certainly couldn't wait 30 days.  On top of that, when they begin to pay you every 2 weeks - they pay you for work you did 4 weeks prior.  You forgot to tell them that part!  Breitner is NOT a good place to work --- unless you don't need money and only work for the heck of it!


get a grip!!!!!
Yes, we have all seen on the news where that has happened.  usually it is because there is something wrong with the dog like a tumor or something.  Some breeds of dogs are also very aggressive.  I think that if you choose a good breed that is good with kids and train them correctly and treat them with love, you are pretty safe.  i have been around dogs all my life, even as a young child and have never even been bitten by a dog once!!!
Seriously!!! Get a grip.

"Me" is right. 


get a grip...
She asked for some tips. Just wanted other peoples advice of how to go about doing this and what would some of the best points be to go into. You try giving a speech to a bunch of high school kids. Harder than you may think I am sure. What is the harm in someone asking for pointers?
You must not have a grip to be a tad rude by
saying get a grip people. I still do not believe it. Show me the money and only then will I believe it. Also, when I get offered more than 6-9 cpl for straight transcription will I believe it.
grip? lol you mean "gripe"? lol
?
let her decide. she already has a grip on
the passing away part but that doesn't mean she is ready for the open casket and long viewing hours at the funeral home.  this way she can still picture grandma how she was and not in the casket which can be a little unsettling for adults sometime.  if she wants you guys to take her to the grave site sometime to say her goodbyes then take her.  i remember writing a so called goodbye letter to my grandfather when i was a kid telling him about all of the things i'll always remember and loved about him. that way i was able to get out my feelings and i still have something to look back and read so i'll never lose my (all of it anyway) memory of him.
Get a grip - EMRs have nothing to do with
You are a perfect examply of why MTs are losing their jobs.  Ignorance in the MT field has become more and more widespread in this country WITHOUT leaving the United States. 
I'd say you need a grip. This is exactly why fewer MTs are commenting on here
They get blasted and basically reprimanded for giving an opinion. How about some common courtesy.
yeh, we have to have a tight grip on our social graces

We'll start walking around wanting to backhand everyone who looks at us sideways.

Oh get a grip!! This is an open forum for ANYONE not just working MTs.

Speaking of Kenny Chesney, is anyone thinking what I am thinking? see message
When I hear the words, "annulment" and "fraud" in the same sentence, I can only think of one thing.  Anybody else thinking the same thing?
I'm OK! I got a grip and went back down to wait for the Limo! I am not reading ANY more of
"those" posts! Nope! Notta one!
How long would you say it takes to get a decent grip on them. I do have samples already I have read
over and they arent hard but I havent heard the voices yet.
LOL, that's exactly what I was thinking
Let's try to focus on the original question, not debate the evils of daycare. I agree, many discussions on this board do end in negativity, but I thought this one was going pretty well until we hit the nerve about daycare.

I think Kira has been given a lot of great information from a lot of different points of view. It's all food for thought.
My thinking too - thus the OMG nm
 
That's what I was thinking.
It sounds like a case of misdirected anger here.  Grandma was probably waiting for the right moment instead of springing bad news on them the moment they came through the door.  Are you going to all have a yelling match late at night when your'e tired from your trip and all the kids are home?  Better to wait until they're at school and discuss it like rational adults.  How many times has the kid been arrested and suspended before now?  The kid is the one who was wrong by misbehaving in the first place.  If he's such a bad seed, why did he get left with Grandma anyway?  Everyone knows Grandparents aren't as good as enforcing rules as parents are.  All this communication and responsibility nonsense is control freak bunk.  The kid wouldn't have been arrested and suspended if you truly had honest and open communication.  Why was he arrested and suspended anyway?
That's exactly what I was thinking

I was just thinking. . . .sm

I have a friend that was a Pug breeder. Unfortunately the "Pug couple" only had one litter as the female had major problems with her first and only litter.  She still has the male and female who are almost 10 years old and in good health.


She "rescued" a "Puggle" (Pug/Beagle cross) a few months ago and that poor dog had the worst gas. STINK!  It was just awful.  She was feeding him Iams just like her older Pugs, but he would make everyone run outside.  We had him in the car one day and we were all ready to just bail.


I'll have to ask her what she did to make the Puggle stop clearing out the neighborhood.


I too have been thinking about it...sm
I have not raised my price for five years and am seriously considering going up another penny maybe after the holidays.  I too pick up and deliver and we all know the cost of gas!  Anyway, I think I am due or overdue!!! 
by that thinking
We should all be speaking Native American, they were here first!
Thinking outside the box (Where is this box?) and
people calling eachother "DAWG" - how stupid is that.

and

Anything that comes out of Paul Shaffer's mouth (that guy just irritates me).
I was thinking the
I was tought to type way back in the 10th grade. We learned right from the start not to look at the keys. Why do you need the letters to stay on?? I really don't understand it.
Thinking about it.

I have a BS that isn't that marketable (at least all of my A&P, Patho, etc.. were useful for this job) and am contemplating the same thing.


I have thought about outpatient primary care nursing since I don't really want to work in an inpatient environment.  I originally wanted to get my BSN but got sidetracked and am thinking about going back through a BS to BSN program sometime in the future.


My kids are 2,3 and 7 and while I know some people can do it, I think it would be really hard to go to RN school at this point in my life. Your child is older and it might be easier for you, but it will still be tough. You have to get to clinicals early and often stick around to get more information on your pt at the end. The night before your clinical, I have heard RN students have to do tons of prep work - you have to know your pt's medical condition inside and out and have all of your nursing diagnoses and care plans set up. 


Its a lot of work but the career is very rewarding and the pay, despite all of the kvetching, is pretty darn decent. 


If it is something YOU want to do, talk to an advisor.  Get the lowdown on it.  When I was in college the first time, the RN program had an information session for prospective students that included a Q and A with a current student.  But, make sure it is your goal - I let people convince me to go pre-med and within a semester I realized there was no way I wanted to be an MD.  Had I stuck to my desires instead of what someone else wanted for me and thought was a better choice, I might have been a pretty good nurse by now.


Good luck. Lots of people do it. It is much harder than when you have no kids but people do it all of the time. 


If the guy is really as bad as she has us thinking,
and she could lose her current job and any future job. I am beginning to wonder if the site should start a "Support your local Jodi" page.
I'm thinking about getting the DVD, too. sm

I can't believe I didn't watch this show from the beginning.  I just really started watching it this season.  Now it's a must see show for me!


I really don't know what he was thinking......I just think he is
heartless and thought maybe he could leave the country and not have to come back or something??? I really don't know. I just think he put the gun back thinking he had cleaned it good and that no one would ever think to check that gun since noone knew it had been gone. As far as the computer, the porn looks bad if he is guilty but the fact is looking at porn doesn't make him guilty. On the other hand, if you take the computer then it does look like you are hiding something. He probably just didn't think about the computer....None of it makes sense to me either. I think he just killed her and then wasn't sure what to do.....
Don't know what I was thinking...
All of this is new to me. Forgive the stupid question.  I get how it works now.  Thanks.
Yes, I was thinking that I would...
need to gather some references, maybe a book or two. I have done some reports, but not a wide range. That is why I was hoping to get some imput from people who do psych on a regular basis.

Any references, info would be greatly appreciated :)
What are they thinking...?
I have looked into it and, quite frankly, it looks absolutely ridiculous. All these outrageous rules, especialy when a man (who came up with the theory) decided a woman shouldn't make any noise while giving birth (but she can have all the drugs she wants) and some goofball decides for his wife that's the thing to do! Go figure.

Exactly what I was thinking
Taylor was already an established entertainer, maybe not hugely successful, but already had his on stage persona established. Elliott, for example, was undiscovered and uncharted territory. Ready to be molded. I have read on the AI message board that some people just "couldn't get past the teeth". Well, uh, I think he can afford to get some work done now if he so chooses. To me a talent show should be about undiscovered talent, someone who grows tremendously during the competition. Can ya tell I'm an E fan. LOL.
I'm thinking it is because
it is just as easy to chat here on the boards?
i'm thinking you could
but don't really know about laptops. I was just looking yesterday about replacing my KVC and saw lots of variations. Could probably get your answer from one of these on-line sites or just call a local 'puter guy and see.
not sure about this, but when I was thinking-sm
about doing this, I was told I would need a program that would *transfer* the video from the camera to the computer, and I believe it is Dazzle, or something like it...once that is done, you could use your editing program. but again....not sure, as I have not actually done it. This is just what I was told. Good luck.
Thinking that may be...

one of the reasons his wife left. Not that I would hold it against him, obviously.   LOL!


What was he thinking???!!!
What a very painful thing to do to your son. He should have called you or atleast tried a more sensible approach (OTC products) to take care of the problem.

Your family physician can refer your son to a podiatrist, but most PCP's treat plantar warts right in the office with a procedure known as cryotherapy (freeze method.) It is a quick, relatively painless (some temp. burning) method that works well. In the office I work at children and adults of all ages have this done without much complaint. I would check into it. Kudos for taking pictures of his sores on his foot and sending the documentation to your attorney. Every piece of documentation counts in a situation like this.
I'm only 26 and thinking that already.
It's a shame we spend so much of our time trying to make a living, with any job really. My son is 7 now, and it is really starting to hit me that I only have so much more time with him until he is off to college.
That is what I was thinking that you could always
do something different with it as well, but you can do that with the dental too, teaching, etc.

I have read some nursing forums (there are not many I can find for the dental side) and have seen how they say they have to clock out after their 12 hours and do charts and could be working still 14-15 hours later because of the charts. That is why I am really leaning toward the dental hygienist program, but I just don't have many people that I have come across that can tell me more than the generic info I am finding on the internet.

my way of thinking
I do think of the first letter of each word when it comes to phrases ... but I have trouble remembering a lot of phrases, unless it's one that I've heard 10,000 times.

And then come the was/were combination: The wound was irrigated ... The wounds were irrigated --- The first letter for each phrase is TWWI ... so, how do I differentiate between the two?

And with IT, you're saying that you basically stare at the bottom of the screen?

I was thinking at least $26.
That's what I usually make once I'm familiar with the account. I'm in Missoula. :-)
See, that's what I'm thinking.
People start shouting about cherry picking when they have no idea what is going on with others. All you can worry about is yourself and figure what comes to you is luck of the draw. There are going to be waves of good dictators and bad, depending on who is in the hospital catching up on dictations. Some people just have to think they are getting cheated out of the good dictations is what it always sounds like to me. Nope, we are all getting crappy days and then better days.
Well, I'm not even thinking
HIPPA, I was just reading all this and remembered when I enrolled my kids in school, I was told they had to have that to make sure they were who you say they were and that you are the one that was supposed to have them! So, I was just wondering if that was true. Kind of too late now-they are both in school. What state do you live in, sm?
Maybe in your thinking, but not everyone
I've juggled both, and it worked well.  You are not the norm if you can't be a Mom and have an at-home business.  You must not have what it takes.  I am considered a professional and so should the OP.  Just because she has a baby does not give you the right to say she is giving this profession a bad name.  Shame on you.
That's what I was thinking too.
x
That's what I'm thinking. sm
I'll be talking to them more this week, after they've talked it over amongst themselves.
Just what I was thinking, lol.
