old saying, give 'em an inch and they'll take a mile . . . you have given them their inch already. I don't believe they would be able to find someone else to do that for them at no charge, do you? I'm sure she is being paid for the time that she works, be it by the hour or salary.

I know how it feels to want to keep an account of your own, especially under the circumstances you mentioned in your last post, but I do not think you should continue to help out for free. It's not fair, and more than that it is abuse. I would probably try to find a nice way of letting her know that you do want the account, but cannot afford the time to help out for free. Maybe say something like, when you determine which ones you need to have transcribed, give me a call and I can pick up the drive and list of those done right away.

There's nothing wrong with keeping a list of transcribed patients to let them know which ones you transcribed, IMHO, but if there are some that they do not want you to transcribe then they need to let you know which ones they are. I have a sneaking suspicion that with the last ones she gave you, she knew some had been done and did not have time to figure that out beforehand, and did not even mention that to you until afterwards. They really should've had the last girl keeping a list of what she had transcribed, and then they would not be in this predicament.

I would just try to be as pleasant and professional in my responses to her, but do not let her have you sorting out her mess at no charge.
