They're ignorant - some hubbies...sm

That's why I don't want another one....did it once - won't do it again.  My daughter, by the way, got me the only thing I wanted, a dish garden....and it was in a big turtle with a little baby turtle hanging onto the big (mommy) turtle.  I love dish gardens. 


The older children will eventually GET it, especially when THEY become parents.  *lol*


I'm original poster -forgot to mention that I do.
I quit twice in my life, the last time for about 3 years.  Both times just made up my mind to - and cold turkey.  Just can't seem to do it now. 
HA! Ignore the signature above - I forgot to change it !!!!

Disregard that "help please", forgot to change the name.

So What if lawsuit makes poster happy. So WHAT?
Why are you UNHAPPY about lawsuit.

BTW, when you come down to tearing apart and anonysmous posters screen name you have lost any sort of credibility or argument you know.
you may be happy making chump change but
but not everyone should be. An MT does more than type. They do more than sit at a desk. We do a job that is required to be 98% accurate, done on time, done in specific ways for each individual doctor a lot of times. This is worth a lot more than 12.00 an hour at 150 lines an hour typed. We learn work types from every body system (acute care anyway) and have to dicepher mumbo jumbo and I happen to think 12.00 an hour is not enough with 7 yrs' experience.
Switching banks - DD question (Happy B-day to poster below!!)

I have two bank accts.  One is Wells Fargo where I have DD.  The other is with Wash. Mutual which I just opened as I want to quit banking at Wells Fargo.


Has anyone switched banks and requested DD to be placed on another account?  If so, is there a time lapse in between that is of any length?  (i.e., will they mail the check to me in between stopping one DD acct and before setting up the other?).


Guess I should just call HR but I know they are busy as it is payday.  Will wait until Monday.  Thanks if you can be of help. 


You're funny. Ignorant, but funny.
I don't live in NYC and I don't work out of NYC and I make wayyyyy more than $23 an hour, SandyGIRL.

I'm an employee at the largest national and I make anywhere from $58K to $64K a year.

You don't have to believe anyone but you show your ignorance by telling those of us who make that money that we're full of it.

Hahaha
I'm not irritated at all. Of course you're not the same poster

backing up the same posts with the same style down to the caps on words you want to emphasize.  It's mere coincidence that you and whoever backs your posts seem to use the same style.  Right!   LOL.  Good try. 


Gotcha! 


 


You're right, it's not going to change back to what it was, but

we can still be competitive. Why would medical professionals take the chance of offshoring their patient's medical records if it can be done right here in the US?  Competition. That's what our goal needs to be.


What shocks and amazes me is how so many American workers are so willing to just lay down and get screwed instead of adapt by being competitive.  Adapting doesn't mean you have to accept offshoring at all. 


For those of you who see my point, kudos to you.  For those of you who don't, grow a brain.


You're going to have to make a change.

If you can try to work an hour or so earlier or later to get in some lines when her son is sleeping.  I find that if my children/DH are awake I want to be with them, even if just watching TV, so I'm more productive when they are sleeping.  If you think this new account situation is just a temporary thing and in a month or so you won't have to work so much then just have a talk with son and explain the situation and make an effort to spend some quality time with him.   Starting with any new account is takes a while to get productive, but if this new account is too difficult, ask to try another account or change companies.  


I gave way too much to my job and not enough to my family, even though I had to work, I wished I could do it all differently.  My son has seen pictures and home videos of me hold him in my lap and reading to him and he can't believe I used to do that.  I allowed my work to take priority.  I can't go back and undue the past, but I've learned from my mistakes and working hard to correct things now. 


If you have to ask, you're not ready for that big of a change.

Oh, I forgot. You're only allowed to hate and resent white people.

I'm sorry you're so upset about this, but previous poster is right.
She is going to make choices, and if YOU make the choices for her, you will bear responsibility with her, for them. I know that may not coincide with your feelings and your stance on this issue. But as long as you can BE there for her, even when her choices are insanely bad, when she finally comes to her senses, she would be able to turn to you without feeling judged, or put down, or rejected. I guess your prayers for her, whether you agree with her or not, would at least please God. He can't be displeased by your loving her very much.
If you're happy and you know it...
I have been with a company for a long time, and am now looking elsewhere.  I have enjoyed moderate flexibility with hours, employer-supplied equipment, easy-to-use software, fair support, moderate pay.  I am looking for the same, just with more money.  I would hate to entirely give up flexibility in hours.  Any suggestions?
you're funny - but I change my handle....sm

to usually fit the threads here.....but email me anytime - just click on the email thingy when you post to me :)  I DO email *lol*


Yeah, eTime does keep me more together and putting in more hours....*grins*  I only work for them PT.


Thanks for what you said about my post - if I was going to call someone that, I would've spelled DUMB and I would've not called them DUMB but voiced an opinion that I thought they were DUMB.  I was merely being dramatic, like you said.....and starting with a dum-de-dum-dum-DA or DUM, I forget how I ended that......


I now think that poster didn't know what eTime was nor worked for our national but who knows?  I'm certainly not sure.  *l*


Email me - and we'll do email :)  Perhaps we even live in the same state....*giggles*


Be well, sugar!!  :)

Even 4.5 is too low. doctors do not change - they still hem and haw, change, change stuff along wit
It is just not enough for the work. Speech is great on the wrists but you are not just reading what is typed, you are making a lot of changes. I have a hard time doubling a lot of days with all the changes I have to make. Just my opinion.
UR Ignorant
Can you read?  Did you even read my post?  I am not whining, I am trying to explain to you why some people can not leave their jobs.  How dare you presume to know me or anything about me?  You are starting to sound suspiciously like MQLover, Chucky, Frankie Boy, Zipper, et al....
How ignorant are you?
That has got to be the most ludicrous statement that I have ever heard. Such arrogance coming from where? A fellow American? Who do you think you are making a statement like that? Of course they have a right to earn a living just as we do. Yes they are mostly a very poor people and yes they are nice. But of course, you can't get over yourself for one second now can you? What makes you think that because we are Americans we are SO MUCH BETTER than anyone else in the world? That is just absolutely not true. If you can believe that for one second then you truly are living with rose colored glasses on and I for one feel sorry for you. That is a pathetic existence to have.
You think I am ignorant?!....
I told you how many ILLEGALS I have known on the post below. I am curious to know how many YOU know. Don't tell people they are ignorant until you know the situation. Find out the facts before you speak. I usually do. I can take shelered because I am from a small town. I can even take naive because I have been there before. But I can not and will not take being called IGNORANT by someone who does not even know me OR know my circumstances. I have never BEEN nor am I IGNORANT. That is a very rude thing to say. I have never called anyone that on this board and I haven't seen other people call anyone that either. Have a little respect.
Don't change. I had to change back to cable. SuddenLink DSL stinks! nm

You are very ignorant about depression and antidepressants...SM
The drugs you list are NOT "happy" pills and are NOT addicting. They correct a chemical imbalance in the brain and (hopefully) allow the depressed person to feel somewhat NORMAL again. They are not uppers as you imply.

Unless you've experienced the living hell that is clinical depression and the wonders these medications can do, keep your mouth shut.


sorry but the Bible isn't ignorant, dear.

might be careful of that violent tendency as well, all that hammering on someone's head.

besides, everyone here is entitled to their opinion.

Life brings with it the ignorant!
Most patients probably don't realize that it is the nurse that handles their care essentially.  She/he alerts the doctor with problems, questions that arise, health status, etc.  The physician will "round", but it is the nurse that handles the "triage" tasks so to speak.  The patients are usually nice to the doctors, but expect the nurses to be their "slaves".  Yes, I am also a patient advocate since I've lost both of my parents in an inpatient healthcare setting and both with terminal diseases, but I also believe that a hospital is not a "hotel" where every whimsical desire is granted.  To understand why a nurse would say that is quite easy.  Transcriptionists sit at desks and look like secretaries.  It is only when the Transcriptionist is not there that the triumphs are noticed by others.  When I left a hospital setting, I had to train six, I mind you, (6) people to do my job.  I was full-time.  It is funny how much transcriptionists do that goes unnoticed until they are no longer there to do it.  What a smack in the face that hospital got, and it is a shame because it is the patient that will suffer.  Unfortunately, we don't usually get the recognition we deserve, but at least we can sleep at night knowing we've contributed.  I wonder if the same posters on these boards that complain they are unappreciated are the same ones complaining about having to work the holidays???????  I'm sure I'll get blasted for that one!  Oh well, I love my job and most people do that are in the transcription field, hence, they would not do it at all!  Wouldn't most of you agree?  I don't want to offend anyone, but it is just how I feel!  Be safe out there!

What an embarrassing, ignorant post
you really ought to be ashamed of your comments but I'm not taking any bets.
Forgive an ignorant question

What's a gross line?


Stupid, I know.  I really don't know what that is, though. Thanks.


Change provider vs change to business plan

In your place, I would seriously consider changing providers if there were others available in your area, but I'd ask around about their service quality first.  It may not be any better.  If there are no other providers, then consider changing your service package to a business account rather than residential.  They're usually more expensive, but they also tend to get faster service if there's a problem.


Last summer, I had no electricity for 3 days due to severe storms, but there were some 600,000 in the same boat with me.  We just had to wait it out.  It's a downside of working at home.

That's a pretty ignorant statement - do you know what "customs" are???
Women are to be accompanied by men and are to follow the laws in the Middle East.
I love how stating what I believe to be factual is ignorant- this has nothing
customs or what their religious beliefs or morality is. I am just saying it will most likely be nothing like she expects, certainly nothing like the freedom we have here in the U.S., and she should think long and hard about it. Go in with your eyes open. Boy, the things people take "offense" at on this board is unbelieveable.
And name-calling makes one look more ignorant than ever, dear.
There's a name for you too, sweetie, but it's "politically incorrect" to use it. You know what it is though.

Now go read the New York Times and dream of a better world while we all stand in a circle holding hands and singing Koom-by-ah!

Wondering what part of Fanbelt, Idaho this one's from.
can you explain EMR - I know about voice recognition, but I am ignorant
about this.  How exactly does it work.  I had always assumed it was for lab results and such.  Do they do clinic notes, letters, discharge summaries this way?
WHATEVER. I can't handle ignorant people, which means this conversation is over.
SEE YA!

The first thing you need to change is that defeatist attitude! I know that's hard at times like this, but that's when you need to most.
I won't go into detail, but my financial situation is also at an all-time low, we couldn't even exchange gifts., daughter in hospital twice, & no med insurance)..but then I heard about how much worse things were for others around me this season. Now I'm thankful instead!

What an ignorant reply, not all oriental countires are in Asia, also in North Africa, see below..
Since when is 'oriental' offensive or an embarrassment?

On what planet do you live?
And in the year 2001?
Good one. An anonymous poster blows another anonymous poster's head off. Great win for MQ?

I guess that is a small pleasure for those of you who have lowered your expectations for the company you work for.
