If it's a woman and specialty is ENT, I've done her.
She's truly awful.
In 12 years of MT'ing I've never re-read an entire chart. Edit/read as I type. nm

Yes, I read your post, and I just re-read it, and I've copied and pasted for you in case

you've forgotten your own words! Your post above is 100% different "flavor" to it, now all positive and cheery! Your first post was 100% doom and gloom every which way, including "raining on your parade", and "if you want to go forward"...God, sounds like she's talking about jumping into oncoming traffic! Here is your quote:


My first boss (the one who hired me as a new grad) gave me some words of wisdom that I haven't forgotten. She said that transcribing at home with small children NEVER works under any circumstance. Either the work will suffer or the parenting will suffer.


****


How can the word "NEVER" in caps be interpreted in any positive way? You took about 8 paragraphs to cover every aspect and completely dash this poor woman's dream.  I'm not blind, I'm not talking about day care at all, I'm talking about the total negativity of your original post! You know exactly what I'm talking about, cause you added some sugar to your second version! And that's much nicer than the first!


Oh I've read that site and continue to read it...sm
I agree...much motivation there. I have tried to quit numerous times in the past and did successfully quit when I was pregnant for the first time many years ago but I have never managed to summon up the strength or resolve to stay quit. Thus the "need" for a financial investment in my efforts. It somehow makes it more motivational to know that I have $$$ invested in this effort over and above the $$$ saved on cigarettes.
Therapy for what? Because I don't support any woman who spouts an idea because she is a woman?

And you fall into the "therapy" or drug routine?  Why not address the issues.  You want women to support women no matter how ridiculous the idea is or you want to support a truth, no matter who tells it.  The rest of the "therapy" crap you post is BS.  You must know that by now.


So I've read...
I came here hoping to find there were some fair companies out there, but that doesn't seem to be the case, so far as I can tell anyway.

Good luck to you and all MQ MTs. You've definitely been done extremely dirty by MQ from what I've read.

Too bad we can't all jump ship and leave 'em high and dry!
from what I've read
You'll lose money.
From what I've read...

Shorthand is compatible with Extext. I've read of many people using the 2 together on this forum and others.


He already is...From what I've read, he's been doing open act for

I've read different combinations, but
I googled it and got anywhere from 3-8 uncoated aspirin in a few drops of water. Like I said, some have suggested using other things to make a paste, like honey, but I found that using water works best for me. Try dabbing it on with a cotton ball all over or just in problem areas. Leave on until it's dried 10-20 minutes, it seems. Then rinse off, carefully. Good luck. Let me know! TK
my typo - should've read.....sm

kids, not kinds - putting all kids in public schools - (but not in today's world)


I've read there how they are posting here, that's all.
they speak openly of spam, etc. We see through it and there you are.



I'm like this all of the time! And now that I've read this
and became aware of my chair position, I have to adjust again!  I think it's just one of those little MT quirks we all have.
MICHELLE!! GET BACK DOWN HERE! OH NO! YOU'VE READ THEM!
Its too late, but come back down here and laugh.  Don't read the ugly posts! They're not there - they are not really there - they don't exist, nor does the ugly poster!! 
What do you mean by autodialing? I've read this but don't get why they'd have a problem wi

oops should've have read "older children"...n/m

Best post I've read in a long time.
I tend to go back and forth with my feelings about this profession. In the mornings I am glad I do not have to get up, get ready and go to an office. Many times in the evening, after I have during the day and still have work to do, I feel like stuffing it all. Many times I am disheartened when I get my paycheck, but I am glad to be getting one, while my sister worries about getting laid off from her manufacturing job. MT has advantages and disadvantages.
dang, that is the wordiest article I've ever read. nm

I've read the statement; think sheri sat on this and lost it for both of them out of spite
matches her personality.
Oh, my. That's the funniest thing I've read in a long time.

I use EXText with my current job and I've used at a couple of other jobs I've had. I've ne

used DocQscribe, but I have used Meditech, Cerner, Vianeta, the Precyse platform (I can't remember the name), Dolbey, and  Lanier platform I think was called Cequence (?). 


Out of all the different platforms I have typed on, I have liked EXText the best.  In my opinion, it's very user friendly, easy to learn, and I really like ESP which is the built in abbreviation expander.  Plus it is very easy to create your own normals which I love.  My fingers literally never leave the keyboard because there are macro keys for everything.  You can use your mouse if you prefer or learn the function macros.  I love it.  I think I'm more productive on EXText than with any other platform.


maybe she wants to be the woman.

Seems to me, this is about those woman who only think they look like that...
and unfortunately do not.

Even young girls do this - I have seen young girls more and more, bellies out, cracks out (pardon me, do not know what else to call it- smile), and maybe 2 out of 10 have the bodies for it. The rest are overweight and have bulges and cellulite, etc.

I think almost everyone would agree, if a woman can wear something (or nearly nothing) and look good, more power to them. If they do not have a body like a model, or even close, best to hide the cleavage in public, in my opinion...
Done 2! Come on MTs....help this woman win!
Staples inventors contest. Vote for Julie Savage.
Can't we get this woman out of here?
I would sooner see your Avon and candles! This woman has been over on MT Chat, now here, who knows where else. I don't even believe she is an MT. How could she be when she is so busy with her "company"? Can't we get these types of "free advertisers" off here? Makes me mad!  If fshe is free to advertise, then I think the rest of us should be able to, as well!
Yep, that's right, it was to a woman.nm

One woman actually said she (sm)
spent so much time at the pediatrician's office, she KNEW she could do it.  NO KIDDING.  She really said that.
She is more woman than you could ever-sm
hope to be in your wildest dreams. What did she ever do to you anyway? come on, take my one on one challenge...make my day. lol
Probably every woman on here has done the same or more
than this person is saying she had to do in order to take care of grandchildren. Most women here work and take care of children every day. She asked did I have grandchildren like you just could not work and take care of them. I did - others have here also- no bashing- just truthful, sounds like a cop out to me and probably others here.
Seems that woman
had some issues. Okay ... I can see being a little irritated, but really! Your director had the right attitude, and now you have your funny little story you can share. : )
Who had time to read?LOL I only get a chance to read This Old House once in a while. (nm)

No woman asks for it EVER
A woman can be walking down the street naked, she is not asking for rape.  No woman ever wants to be raped.  Old ladies, young ladies, middle aged ladies get attacked and raped and sexually harrassed and murdered.  Women do not ask for this.  Until we put the blame where it belongs, on the perpetrator, not the victim, nothing will change.  You need some consciousness raising, me thinks.
A woman I worked with ... (sm please)
erased a tape of a day's worth of radiology reports. She pulled all the jackets (before PACS system) and took them to the rad. She apologized sincerely with a stiff upper lip. He did not say a word, read all the films again and life went on. She is now the lead MT and has been there for 15 yrs.
You really need to get a woman in your life!

And what do you consider an older woman?

I can assure you that I'm not an older woman.  Thirty is not old.  I still get carded buying alcohol.  I've never bleached my naturally blonde hair either.  The clothes aren't skimpy.  I have full coverage with nothing hanging out.  I certainly don't shop in the plus or women sized departments either.  It's just a change from slob mode, which is the point I was trying to make.  Women will feel and look younger by taking a few moments to care about their appearance.  Try some trendier clothes, a new hairstyle, a touch of makeup.  Besides, if I was a fat, ugly, old lady as you're implying, troll, hubby would tell me.  He's the one who didn't like my "comfortable" work clothes to begin with.


omg i know a woman who talks just like you
and is just as much an a** and even her sunday school class doesn't want anything to do with her!!! hehehehehe talking about an ugly, stinky attitude!!! hehehe
psycho woman
You sound like a nice woman that just has lousy tastes in men. First of all, you need to get involved in a church. If you have a large one in your area, they typically have groups of people that are in your same boat or had been in a similar boat. Go there first, and seek their advice. and it would be very good for the kids to attend also.
No. Owned by a woman.

woman of the opposite sex
That's hilarious! Thanks for the belly laugh. I needed it today.... LOL.
I had to reply here to what the woman said
That the radiologist would call the physician by phone and report the serious finding on the x-ray. HELLO: Most (or all) patient charts have an order to them in which patient medical records are to be distributed chronologicaly. I would think Medical Records Manager/personnel would be screaming for the hard copy of the report to be placed on the chart, to be reviewed by QA, Coding, etc. This woman sounds lazy.
one good woman

Q: How many women with MENOPAUSE does it take to

change a light bulb?



A: One! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY?

Because no one else in this house knows

HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know

that the bulb is BURNED OUT!! They would sit

in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out.

And, once they figured it out,

they wouldn't be able to find the

light bulbs despite the fact that

they've been in the SAME CUPBOARD

for the past 17 YEARS!

But if they did, by some

miracle of God, actually find

them 2 DAYS LATER, the chair

they dragged to stand on to

change the STUPID light bulb would
STILL BE IN

THE SAME SPOT!!!!!

AND UNDERNEATH

IT WOULD BE THE

WRAPPER THE

STUPID LIGHT

BULBS CAME IN!!!

BECAUSE NO ONE

EVER CARRIES OUT

THE GARBAGE!!!!

IT'S A WONDER WE

HAVEN'T ALL

SUFFOCATED FROM

THE PILES OF

GARBAGE THAT

ARE A FOOT DEEP

THROUGHOUT THE

ENTIRE HOUSE!!

IT WOULD TAKE

AN ARMY TO

CLEAN THIS 

HOUSE!

I'm sorry.... What was the question?


Oh woman...lighten up .sm

... and get a sense of humor!  This board could use more giggles and less crabs.


  


Woman's best friend .....
 
I knew a woman...

who had 2 back-to-back MT jobs going from one hospital to another.  She usually looked half dead by the time I saw her at her 2nd job, but was getting paid hourly, so I doubt she was too productive at job #2.  Somehow she managed to show up every day though. 


What a great woman she was!!!......R.I.P......nm

The one, the only, the woman who has done SO MUCH FOR AMERICA!!!!!

HILL-OH-REE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



My Mom, who was a very wise woman, would tell you...
to love her anyway just the way she is and realize that "everyone is doing the best they can with what they have to work with."  Plus, life's 2 short and life is fragile.
Try to find a woman.
I think that male internists and specialists fail to see the specifics of women's problems and cannot relate to their point of view and/or suffering.  This work is so very stressful on bones and joints and with a lack of exercise and usually poor nutrition because we are at this computer so long daily .. we are killing ourselves slowly but deliberately .. find a woman to see if you can and better still a situation where there are students who will also work with you .. they take the time and while it might drive you a little nuts, their attendings are usually very quality driven.
and you are super woman
if you can work only 3 days a week and make that kind of lines/money, then by all means...do tell????? how do you do it?????? I am sure 100's of transcriptionists are waiting to hear this one! Let's see, you must be super woman, the fastest typist on the earth.
How about an 86-year-old woman with
descended testes bilaterally?  Gotta love it when the docs fall asleep during dictation. 
TP is an elderly 62 you woman. LOL
