What threw me is that they knew my last name and it is not in my e-mail address.

E-mail address

I will be glad to send you a copy of the E-mail that they sent me.  But everyother time anyone has E-mailed me from this board it always states either in the subject line or somewhere that it is in response to a post on the board.  This definitely was not and there is nowhere else that Spheris could have gotten my address and see above there was someone else that got it also.  So they are getting it someway.



 


just need your your e-mail address

The Quick Reference (PDF format) I send via email. The manual is too large so I'll give you a link to go to and download it from.


Your e-mail address is ALL SHE NEEDS. (nt)

Admin -- how did they get my E-mail address

I do not belong the AAMT, I was contacted by Spheris by E-mail asking to fill out an application.   And this is the only place that I ever post anything about being an MT -- so they got it from here.   This has been mentioned before and somehow our E-mail addresses are gotten and I would like to know how.    Like I have said, I have never posted a resume, never applied for a job and only have posted about 10 messages in the past six to seven months.   So how they got it, I don't know.


 



 


if you want to leave your e-mail address, i will put--sm
together a list or irs booklets you can download, look at, or order later this evening.
Is there any way for the e-mail address to stay
nm
Go to your e-mail address book and add
them as a new contact.
E-mail address removed; please do not post EM addresses. (NM)

Maybe they just threw everyone off
and no one else to post. BTDT.
Request that they place a stop payment on the check, reissue, and mail priority or overnight mail
If they refuse or invent unbelievable excuses, you'll know you have a problem. If MY check was a week late, there are many months I would be in deep trouble.
I realize checks occasionally do get lost in the mail. If they are 100% sure it was mailed, then they shouldn't mind issuing another.

Be firm and be persistent.
Dang!! I Just Threw One Away!!
I just had mine croak a couple of months ago and threw it away. I never thought about keeping it to use for spare parts. I had a heck of a time finding one just like it. I finally ended up ordering it from Amazon because the ones at Staples are the newer model with the humongous wrist wrests.

So sorry. I hope you get it up and running again. I absolutely love mine.

What do you think threw you, changes in puncuation, etc. according to BOS??nm
n
She just threw that out there to shut us up, I think
She posts here quite frequently, mostly to whine about her husband, stepson, MIL,and everything else. I don't believe she's really an intentional troll at all, just a complete moron who was trying to dig her way out of the sh*tstorm she started with this gem of a post.
My friend who works for them is having her mail go to her own account. She hates this new mail prog

In every company I have worked for that pays via mail, they mail the checks on payday. sm
Depending on the distance you can get them anywhere from 3-8 days later. Right now one takes 3 days, the other 3-5.
same thing happened to me; i threw a fit with them. sm
i ended up getting my 4th installation under my initial purchase registration # but they did inform me if it happens again, i will have to purchase.  i refuse to although my company requires it.  i haven't ran into needing it again but i am sure i will eventually.  you can buy the (whatever that external USB thing is called) which allows unlimited installs, but not after your initial purchase and i, like you, was not informed about all that as my company purchased for me and withheld from my pay.  win XP does a similar thing and only limits the installs on the software.  i think they both are a bunch of BS.  i pay for it, i deserve to do what i want with it.  can't help my hard drive crashed, etc.
I threw out the ice cube trays. sm

I posted this advice a few months ago.  I got sooooooooo tired of going to get ice and finding empty trays in the freezer and some in the sink.  So I just threw them out. 


About 2 days later, the kids (and hubby) are like, "How come we don't have any ice? And where are the ice cube trays"  My reply was, "I THREW the ice cube trays away because we NEVER have had any ice and we NEVER will. At least this way I KNOW that when I want some ice for my soda, there will not be any ice in my house EVER AGAIN!"  :) 


They all thought I was crazy.


I also put the trash can out in the garage and I hang up a plastic grocery bag on the door handle of the garage door until it is full enough to tie up and go out in the trash can.  Otherwise, I get the "TOSS" with spilled stuff everywhere,  and the "PYRAMID" and have to get out the trash bags to clean the stuff up.


I shined my house spotless one day and then spent a couple of weeks cleaning just my own stuff.  Washed my own dishes, cleaned my own spills, picked up my own clothes, did my own laundry (including towels that I hid for myself) cleaned my "toothpaste overflow" out of the bathroom sink, etc. (of course I cleaned the toilet and washed the floors, because that is just to icky).


At any rate, after the first day, they were washing dishes on "as per needed" basis.  After about 3 days, everyone was like, "Why is the house such a mess?"


I said, as I walked over shoes that didn't make it into the "shoe basket" by the door, and totally ignored the "clutter" everywhere: "GEE I don't know, I clean up after myself well enough."


They got the hint.  Things aren't immaculate, but much better.



 


Guess the MQMT threw me off
SORRY
I was in the same boat until I threw a $ amount at him.

Then he said, "What are you talking to me for? Get back to work!"


 


hears to ears through to threw
Sorry no wonder you are so down on being a Transcriptionist as it is evident you have problems spelling. 
How long by mail did it take to get your IRS refund check after a mail out date was given when you c
;
Yes! The "blue link" thing threw me, too,
Poster above explained the pulling number deal, but still not clear if that is for sure what it means. Oh well! Guess I'll just have to go buy myself something cool for MT Week. Master Card and Visa don't care if I'm a rocket scientist or not! :D
I went into this without prejudice, threw myelf actually, but it seems to get worse...
instead of better. I feel I got a pay cut with almost the same amount of work. Some jobs are great, then you get 3-4 that are heavy in editing and it ruins anything you got with a good 1 or 2.
My mail carrier just informed me that the mail is sorted by
prisoners as part of their work.  Now do you feel safer and more secure?  
Block her E-mail, return mail unopened

On AOL I can determine who I want to receive mail from and block those I do not  -- and if they are blocked  they get their E-mail back as being "undeliverable".  If she sends things out -- send back --unaccepted.  But to be simple just E-mail her back or call the recuriter if you don't want to deal with her directly and state -- leave me alone.  If she is in another state you should not be scared of her but you may simply have to put it out there in no uncertain terms.


I knew him well before I asked him out, so I knew
a long time before our first date that he was the one for me. He didn't know it that soon, but I did.
Kind of ashamed to admit I threw daughter's card away
I know some will call me petty. We haven't ever had the best relationship because she has been a difficult kid since grade school. Just really, really hard to deal with and nasty much of the time. I keep trying and trying and trying and trying. I help her out financially when I can, watch the baby every day while I'm trying to work, too.  I had tears picking out a card for her, and I put some money in there with a little note to treat herself. Yes, I took the money out and tossed the card. I know it sounds harsh, but I feel like I keep putting forth the effort and barely get a thank you in return. Instead, I get a "what's your problem?" Now my son..I can deal with. At least he treats me with some kindness and he tries.
I think it depends where you live. My parents threw a huge party sm
for me when I graduated with about 150 people. The gifts weren't in the $100 range but it was 23 years ago. I received over $5000 in gifts and that was used to help buy the things I needed to go away to college such as bed linens, dorm furnishings, etc. The rest was used over the 4 years to subsidize when I needed extra for something. Yes, my parents paid for college, to the tune of $25k per year. They were happy to do it and proud when I graduated with honors and got a good job afterwards.

I'm going to do the same for my 2 kids that my parents did for my sister and I. There is nothing wrong with working hard to give your kids the best in life and nothing wrong with celebrating their milestones. If you don't agree with graduation parties, don't go to them, but if you don't celebrate your kids' milestones and make them special occasions, who will?

I threw my back out playing dodge ball in 2nd grade. nm

Or discpline time! My kids would be very sorry if they threw things at me or in the house. Two hours
is not too long for them to give you some space.  That's really sad for you, but maybe try to rein them in.  Can't hurt, right?
My 8-year-old threw up on the way home from family celebration Christmas Eve, all over the back seat

Then threw up approximately every hour from 10:00 p.m. until 8:00 a.m. Christmas morning.  Not the Christmas I had planned, up cleaning bodily fluids all night.  Somehow Santa managed to come overnight, too.  My husband, me and the 2-year-old didn't get the bug until last night, it's vicious!  Hopefully that's all over now and we can enjoy the rest of our vacation!


 


 


I'm getting e-mail and personal mail from MQ regarding changes
and lawsuits.   What's up with MQ?  Any speculation?  My mail is general and not specific to my office.  Think things are coming to a head with the lawsuits and MQ is trying to play nice?
Help that is with the address bar
see above....
IP address?
Satellite will be through Wild Blue (dish) Ok, what do you mean by static IP. Is this something i ask them for?
What is the site address?
//
again, I did only address certain MQrs (sm)


and again, the ones who continuously whine and complain regarding MQ-this and MQ-that, it's nerve racking! My point, and this is the last time I will state it, is it is embarassing FOR ME, mind you, speaking for no one else here, to be associated with these whiny babies! Simple enough for ya? I am not backtracking at all, I simply retracted one word that seems to have gotten SOME OF YA riled up! So there, and I am NOT AND WILL NEVER BE a Clinton fan.  That ticks me off more than anything anyone could say to me!


Anyone out there who works for MQ agree with me? Please come to my defense!


I have address resources available, but

the dictating physician will often forget to say the doctor's first name, and there will be 20 Dr. So-and-sos listed.  Or they spell the easy names like Smith, but not the difficult ones that they mangle the pronunciation on.  Then they carbon copy six different physicians.  I've got the hospital directory, online hospital website, online physician address lookup, Google, and other resources, but it's still very time consuming.


I'm thinking I like Meditech better.  LOL  At least everything was in there.  F7, F10, arrow down, save, you're done.


Internet address
Hello.  I was wondering if anyone knew how to delete internet addresses that are seen when you hit the drop down box.  I have a bunch of them that aren't valid anymore, and I want to get rid of them.  Sorry, I don't know the technical wording, but hopefully you know what I mean.  Thanks.
Can you post the web address please?
thanks
This will be the last time I will address
this because you are all so stupid you can't get it through your brains (?), I am one person and that is it. I say exactly what I want. I don't need anybody elses help on this board.
Can the ISP track to an address?
I didn't think it could. That would be great though. I feel bad for this person.
address change

Not sure this is what you are looking for.
Sorry leaving address
 I have almost five years experience, still probably considered a newbie when I see some with almost 5 to 6 times that much.  But I just wanted to email someone who knows more about transcriptions companies than I do at present.
If I could address both posters ... sm
ALS: I read your post to my husband, who works on computers for a living, and he said it sounds like you lost an entire partition. I know that's not helpful and probably something you already figured out, but just wanted to offer something here. He also suggested running a virus scan as it sounds like something a virus might have caused. I sincerely wish you luck and hope that your files can be recovered. You might want to consult a local technician.

To the other poster: I am so sorry for your losses and I can't begin to imagine what you and your children have gone through. It sounds like today was difficult, to say the least. I think we've all been guilty at one time or another for saying something maybe we shouldn't have because of something going on within ourselves. I also send you sincere good wishes.
Do you have the exact web address? Please em it to me. Thanks! nm

lost my address bar

I can't seem to get it back!  I have windows XP.  I've played around with the toolbars but I can't find my address bar! 


Any help would be appreciated for this technically challenged MT.

Did you get physical address??
Did you get the name of her company and the physical address?  Phone number?  There is a lesson to be learned here -- you still need to get all of this info in case something like this happens again.   Unless you have a physical address you cannot send a demand letter with return receipt or serve her with papers or anything.  Hopefully you do have that and can send her a written certified letter demanind payment within 10 days.  Then onto small claims court.   But none of this is possible without a physical address.    Good luck.  If you have her full name or business name and city -- you might be able to do a search to find a phone number.   Did her check to you have a phone number on it?  I always take a copy of the front of checks at least the first one so that I have their account number, etc.  Also shows payment.   Let us know how it comes out.
Needing help- how to get IP address

Here in the SE AT&T had internet outage this week and now 1 of my computers is asking for the IP address, trying to get back on line. Where to find this? TIA.


If they had your correct address sm
and they mailed to wrong address then I would say yes - if post office error - then no. But they should get another one to you ASAP anyway!!
