YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTD, YUCK WAS MOLESTD
YUCK WAS MOLSESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED. NOW SHE'S ACTING OUT.
It wouldn't load with my Office. Somehow it wouldn't "read" my 2003 Basic, although sm
technical couldn't find anything wrong with my software. They really tried hard. I see so many people that like Escription, I'm sorry not to be able to use it. Hopefully I can get Office Pro on my next machine, and maybe use it then. I could upgrade, but I'm still not sure it would work.
I would say pack up and run as far as you can! sm

This guy sounds like my ex-husband.  I'm only hoping you don't have children.


My ex is bipolar, OCD, etc., etc., but there was never anything wrong with him. It was always everyone elses fault.  I got tired of keeping the  perfect little house, the perfect little yard,  making sure that he was okay, making sure his eggs were perfectly cooked just right in the middle, and that the kids were okay when daddy was in "one of his moods."


When he started having an attitude with the kids (at ages 5 and 2), I finally filed for divorce.  His "punishment" for me has been telling the kids that they are "worthless" because they have me for a mother and that I am "insane". When they started going through their early teen years he just stopped talking to them because they did not live up to his "expectations."


He never went to counseling, but my kids did for many years. He told everyone that his kids were in counseling because their mother was insane.  Of course nobody believed him. I see his mom and his sisters out and about a lot (small town).  I don't say anything about my ex because I know that it is his family, but they will occasionally say, "Well, you know how he is."


Now he lives alone now in his perfect little house with the perfect little yard and has nobody to cook his perfect eggs.  Friends, family, dozens of perfect girlfriends, and his own kids finally gave up on him a long time ago. Even the cat ran away. :)


Pack and run if the "boyfriend" (obviously noncommittal to your relationship) doesn't get help.


Good luck to you.


 


 


one can short of a six pack! nm

I would tell them to pack sand
With an attitude from a doctor like that, I would refuse to do his work. There is plenty of other work out there, and there are plenty of other MTs out there. I'm sure the doctor could find someone willing to put up with his crap and I could find someone willing to show some courtesy and respect for my time. Again, I admit I am living under a rock, but I just don't see why it has to be so difficult, and why we should have to put up with so much nonsense. We are all human beings, allegedly on the same team, so why can't we work together? Is it a power struggle? If it is, I'll lose becuase I don't need to be the bigger person; I need to be able to understand the dictator so I can transcribe the report.
Service Pack 3
Service pack 3 does not work with my spell check.  Does anyone know how I can keep this thing from downloading on my computer?
but, also, now you don't have service pack 3. nm

DQS XP home Service pack 2
Hi there. I have a new computer and run XP home edition which contains service pack 2 and have never had a problem with DQS. My brother, however, ADDED service pack 2 to his older XP professional edition and had nothing but problems and eventually took it off. However, he downloads music and stuff and doesn't really know if the service pack was the problem. (He is not a transcriptionist, so no DQS info there.)
Hi! I'm the one who never has had a glitch, and I'm on XP with service pack 2! Maybe that's
Honestly, it is the fastest smoothest platform one could imagine - seamless, really. Never a problem - sound quality is perfect. I hate to say that, cause I'm not a MQ devotee, but the platform is truly awesome!
Yes - hubby is the pack rat. I throw everything that is not being used out.
After I read the newspaper, it is in the trash. Nothing sits around. Hubby would save everything; however, he works shift work, so when he is at work, I toss things in the trast. My home is neat and clean and everything is in its place all of the time!

Taught my 2 teens to be the same way - Love neat and clean and organized!

My home is not enjoyable if crap is everywhere - in my opinion.
Same here. I just pack my keyboard and plug it in.
There is no way I could be productive on a standard laptop keyboard.
Wouldn't that mean that you simply wouldn't have to print out everything?

Is there anything that could be changed so it works better with Windows XP and Svc. Pack 2. What a
pain this thing is.
he has been smoking on and off 1 pack of cigarettes for 5 years.
should be good for him.
Remove Service Pack 3 and go back to
Service Pack 2. I had nothing but trouble with my computer with SP3. I do not have automatic downloads turned on. I go over to the microsoft.com website occasionally and see what is new for downloading. I choose the custom settings so I know exactly what is being uploaded.

Start
Control Panel
Add or Remove Programs
Find SP3 and remove it.
You need to download the conversion pack from Microsoft
website and then you should be able to convert your documents. Not sure if it will convert from Word 2003 or 2007 to WP5.1; however, WP5.1 can be converted to Word 2003 and higher.


I certainly hope no one in your family ever needs defending. You might pack up and leave them too.

I am so sorry to hear this. I also had a close call with a pack of dogs.
These dogs were a very different breed. They were a spitz type (similar in type to my sweet Siberians, but not of the peaceful pack type). The dogs look like huge Shiba Inus, but when they came at my through the tall grass, it looked like we were being hunted by a pack of hyenas. Four or five of them slipped right through a flimsy excuse for a fence and surrounded me and my two dogs. Thank goodness I was there and was able to keep a cool head to bellow at those dogs to stay back as I stood between my dogs and the pack and we backed away, back to the street. Thankfully some men had heard my initial screams and came out of their yards to meet us. It took a lot of phone calls from me and other people living nearby to force her to give up those dogs. They killed one small dog in the neighborhood and had a child cornered, too. I notice this lady replaced the dogs since with some bigger dogs. Some people don't deserve to have dogs.

I am so sorry for your loss. Do whatever is necessary to secure that fence - we had to bury chicken wire around ours to keep our escape artists in, but it's worth it.

Do get pictures of those monsters outside the owner's property. That was important where we live. You might also want to put up warning signs near the owner's property warning of her dangerous dogs, with photos. Maybe that will embarrass her. Go around and collect stories about these dogs from neighbors, and have them sign the descriptions of their experiences. Then mail those in to animal control with the pictures. If that doesn't do it, call the news station and get them to come and see for themselves.

We mingle with pit bulls at the dog park here, but these are well-socialized dogs. If they ever start acting inappropriate, these owners haul them out quickly, but it's pretty rare they have to.
I'm sorry that should den of lions or pack of wolves. Gotta get the terminology right!

My conversation with you is over. You sound worse than a pack of 6th grade girls.

Norton Internet Security 2009 and Service Pack 2 or 3??
I am having a heck of a time! I have Windows XP and just purchased Norton Internet Security 2009 for my antivirus, as my previous version is just about to expire. Upon installing it it says I have to install Service Pack 2 or higher for it to work. I never installed SP2 because I read that many, many had problems with it. Should I go ahead and download SP3? Is there anything I need to do before installing it? I'm thinking of taking the computer to a professional and having them download SP3 and install it for me because it makes me really nervous! Anyone have any experience with this? What should I do?

Thanks!
YUCK
I agree. I like it nice and cool. My pocketbook likes it a little warmer. :-)

yuck...
I eat red meat, pork but mostly chicken.

If you don't want to red meat, that's cool. But, word of warning to you - many begetarians think they are eating heathfully because they cut out meat, but in fact, vegans often have high cholesterol counts because they eat so many dairy foods. They also often fry foods - you would be better off eating an 8 oz steak than eating a couple of batter dripped deep fried cheese stick.

Please watch the fat content of your food.

Good health to you!
Yuck/LOL..... what??
Was that one liner in response to my post Yuck????  What???? are you tongue tied Yucky yuck upchuck?????  I didnt ask about your overweight issues Yuck.. .. Sorry that you have them.   Try weight watchers.  I have heard they help.  But Yuck.... who will help you get a personality???? GEEZ  whatever will the Yuckster do????  
Come on now Yuck...

Let it all out Yuck/LOL.  I know you have been showing multiple personalities on here.... but we see through that and we hear your pain Yuckie duckie.  Dont worry, your husband just probably couldnt stand it anymore.... I mean, we've only known you a few short hours and already can't stand you.... So, it's okay.  Some people are only human....  Yuckiity doooo.  I know you can't comprehend that either, but just nod your big head and pretend.... you're good at that.  Now, Yuck, lets talk about the pimples, the flour that you've been rolled in, your need to insult others and chalk it up to having fun..... when did this all start????   How is the bed wetting??  Is it still as frequent???


Yuck
Yuck - go play in traffic!

Well, there ya go person posting as Yuck.  I got on this forum tonight to check out a company.  When I read the posts on here from you about the administrator of this board and all your other posts in response to other people, I was really taken aback.  Many MTs have posted in response to you, asking you nicely/professionally/maturally to please stop.  You are insulting, demeaning, critical, nasty, rude and very hurtful in your posts.  I was/am outraged and amazed at the things you have said on here.  All my posts to you are what you have put out there to us.  Kind of funny how when someone starts saying nasty (and I didnt even call you any vulgar names like you did) things back to you, being critical and hurtful back to you, you all of a sudden do not have a lot to say.  It doesnt feel real good does it?  What you do in fun can actually be very damaging to someone else.  I am glad that you seem taken aback by my posts to you.  That was the point.  I wish that you would stop and really think about what your words may mean to someone else.  That someone else is a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister.  Have you any of those?  How would you like it if any of your family was treated the way you have treated us tonight?  Especially the admin of this board.  How awful of you to talk that way about this person.  This forum is here as a courtesy to us.  Why are you abusing it?
Yuck....
I work every single weekend for the next year.  That is my companies policy for newbies...... boo!
yuck!
I hope you get your old one back...or another good new one!

Why do I have to listen to this doc sucking up his snots through his nose while he is dictating? Can't he just take a break and blow his nose. It's making me sick to my stomach.
Yuck...
This was my experience a few years ago...Overall, the people were nice but I encountered my first and only QA Nazi there. Right off the bat, she introduced herself as having 30+ years of experience (compared to 14+) for me. That should have been my first red flag because who throws that into their introduction. I certainly did not state my years of experience as part of my introduction. Anyhow, I just chose to ignore it and give it all I had. All of the other QA were so nice and then I got HER.... It was, "you missed a tense" as in past tense such as a discharge summary in which most of it was dictated with past tense i.e. was, did etc. Well, excuse me, I missed one because I just get in the habit sometimes of typing what the physician states instead of correcting everything they say. I felt totally nitpicked and the final straw was when she told me that it was wasting their money having me because I was having to be on QA. EXCUSE ME.. what is QA supposed to be doing but QA-ing the new people. Never in my life has anyone told me that I was wasting their time and money. I was insulted. No, I am not perfect but I also was NOT a newbie and did not feel like I was looking to them for guidance on how to do transcription. So, that being said, I'd have to give them a thumbs down. It's a shame because the manager and the other QA people were quite nice but she had obviously been in the business too long, old and burned out, which ruins it for everyone else.
No such luck. The tech wants me to update to the XP service pack 2, but I've heard that can be tr

Bag of frozen peas for a cold pack and heat up dry rice in a sock for a hot one. Ah...nm

Exercise isn't the issue here, him lifting leg in house is. Bye, Bye, Pooch, pack your bags.nm
:{
Yeah..call me crazy but I pack it in bubble wrap and pillows..You'd be going a little further so
As far as a laptop, it's a hassle, but you can take that in a carryon bag so you know it would be knocked around. The worst part is that you have to take it out everytime you go through security at the airports but it isnt bad. I just ordered a laptop today so I can start taking that and retire my desktop..that is as long as this new adapter I just bought works like others say it will. My husband is bascially retired and I hated that he could travel without me so I quit my in-house jobs to go home this year doing transcription and now that summer is here and our little one is out of school, we're off and running. Vegas this month, then Calfornia the next..etc... I love this job!!!
Yuck, I don't eat red meat, but (sm)

do eat some chicken for more protein.  Also eat lots of fruit with cottage cheese and lots of green, leafy vegetables.  Also, a way to get more protein is nuts, like cashews or almonds and feta cheese with your salads.


For lunch today is pasta with some cheese biscuits with garlic salt, also a green salad with feta cheese.  Melons with cottage cheese for a snack.  No meat at all and I don't miss it!  You get used to it.


Come on Yuckie Yuck
Dont you have any new, original material?  Your insults are old and boring.  Old, fat, pimply, blah blah.  We've heard it all from you already.  Why don't you take a break and sleep on it.  Maybe in the morning you'll have a better come back.  Maybe you'll wake up and finally find an excuse for yourself, or you can pretend that you actually have a reason to be breathing the air that you breath.  or maybe you can pretend that your are NOT really just a waste of space, a stain on the floor.  A Loooohoooooser.  Come on cheesyball, you're having fun here, right?????  So, whatcha got????
YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED

If that is Yuck's club no thanks
her idea of cool is sitting and popping her pimples all day and then having her husband pop the ones on her fat butt all night.  That is why he left ya know.   Well, one of the reasons anyway. 
I found YUCK...
You know, posting as LOL doesnt fool us Yuck.  We know you are one in the same.  I think it is a Sybil complex.  Listen, I know you have many personalities, but try to keep them all on the same page so that you make sense, okay?  By the way, does daddy like Yuck or LOL better?
Family. Yuck!
I just don't work with friends or family. Period!
I saw that on TV, too, last night. Yuck! nm

You can look it up on McDonalds on the web. YUCK

Not only do they taste awful (I tried a bite once - yuck), they have 560 calories, 21 grams of fat, etc., etc., but what people don't even look at is the SODIUM!


Sodium in these bad boys is 1260!!!


And people EAT this junk?


reply to yuck
Hey, they are always going to be out there. You live and learn just like we all did.
People actually advertise with "no experience necessary" you too can be an MT!
Oh yuck, I hate that, too.
a
doctors.. yuck
Every problem that MTs and MTSOs have is because the CEOs and underlings are so terribly scared to say anything to the doctors... they are SAINTS you know... NOT !!!!! It totally disgusts me... only good thingfor us is that the medical field is where the money is today and we need our jobs so we put up with the bullsh-t.
yuck, i will never like c-phones...sm
No matter what i ever tried, the footpedal with a Cphone is just awful....I wonder why companies still use this antiquated hot mess.
NO, this sounds like good training. Dogs are low rank pack members of any family,

Yuck! I am used to the 90s here but over 95 gets a bit too toasty--keep as cool as you can! - nm
