Your post should be entitled "Unrealistic MT speaks."

In Reply to: So you didn't have a contract (sm) - Experience Speaks
I've been in this business long enough to know that number one, it is darn hard to get any clinic to sign a contract with an MT, and two, I'd put my head on the block and say that 99.99% of them would never sign a contract stating that if they break the contract, they would continue to pay the MT x-amount per month, and if their high-powered attorney allowed them to do such an air head thing, they'd find a legal loop hole via to get out of it soooooo quick.
The MT who originated her post was obvlously feeling very down, as you would be if it happened to you, so I must say it was very BIG of you to kick her while she was in that position, and I have to wonder, who's more professional - you or the clinic who dumped her with no notice after years of good service.
May the karma bug bite you big time in the butt, and it will, too.
Have a nice day - Julie

Your post speaks for most, if not all of us! - sm
I would love to see a compilation of hundreds posts like this from other MTs sent to Congress, so they can see for themselves what offshoring is doing to this country. At this rate, we'll be 'third world' before we know it.
This really speaks the truth! Loving your post. nm

Speaks out....
It has to be absolutely awful to have the whole world know what is going on in your personal life. As the poster below said, Jennifer has millions and no children - but I've had some kick-in-the-stomach events in my life and it was bad enough coping with them (I know, we all do - don't flame me). At least I could escape to the mall, a bookstore, some anonymity - but Jennifer had no place to escape to.
I think Brad is a very decent guy but he's probably going through a midlife crisis. I worry more about him getting hurt from whacko Angelina - not only emotionally hurt, but if I were him, I would be worried about catching something. That girl is a skank.
and that speaks volumes (nm)

and he still speaks to people like the..nm

just because someone else *speaks* the words--sm
does not *make them his.* just as qoutes from others are in books, and the writer copywrites those. The doctor did not tell her to make the macros to make her job easier. She had to take it upon herself to do the work. He did not type them and put in the codes, she did. He did not provide her with anything to make her job easier. It was her effort, thought processing, and physical demands that did that for her. She should not have to *hand them over* to anyone. That is HER work. Not his. Does that help you understand it a bit better?
One that speaks EBONICS. - nm

The 'Holy One' speaks........
You get what you pay for. Your attitude speaks volumes. nm
nm
that's your opinion and you are entitled (sm)
to it. However, so are we, entitled to be happy with MQ. Sorry if that offends anyone! 
I'm as entitled to my opinion as you are.
You're the one upset, dear. Not me.
Yes, most of the whining on here is juvenile. It isn't constructive in any shape or form.
Yes, you are free to gripe. I'm free to respond as well.
I don't think I'm above anything. How ridiculous. I'm in the same boat as most everyone; I just have a different outlook.
As for your "typical office environment"...now THAT is absolutely a hoot! You are truly right on target there. Yes, it IS like a typical office environment. Full of disgruntled, dissatisfied workers who will not budge from their mired-up dark places but demand all in the company change for them. It is a rumor mill of the most destructive type. It is an emotional wringer.
The continual gripe sessions have made absolutely no progress for any of the problems discussed. The constant pity parties have made no positive impact either. They have only kept people upset and drawn others into a horrendous emotional spin.
Just keep on, Cowgirl. You have every right to get upset and stay that way.
I'm continuing on. You're not influencing my actions in the least. :)
As I said EVERYONE is entitled to their own opinion, nothing more to say - nm

yep, UR sure entitled to your opinion....nm
So obviously anyone entitled to a refund....sm
then will be eligible for this? I also know people who don't pay a dime all year and then end up getting a refund at the end of the year because of the earned income credit, etc. So those people will definitely get this, correct?
Vent all you want; you are certainly entitled. sm
The MT industry/career sunk months ago, and it was an even bigger sink than the Titanic. However, in this case, this sink destroyed thousands of very dedicated and very hard-working MTs who were filled with nothing but passion and love regarding transcribing.
Jennifer Aniston finally speaks out
She says she's hurt and sad over the breakup. She loves Brad and always will because he's a "good" man. She's very hurt about his spread in Vanity Fair with Angelina as a "married couple" with children. She says it was obvious from the beginning of filming Mr and Mrs Smith that he was attracted to Angelina and started drifting away from her. Now look at him, he's chasing after Angelina like a fool, while she adopts baby after baby, when he had a perfectly good woman! The whole thing is sad!
Are you kidding - at least Clooney speaks properly.
Matt comes across as being very dumb when he speaks and is apparently odd to boot - remember the incidents where he got caught doing something naked extremely high on pot??? And now, no deodorant?!? Please, up your expectations, ladies! He seems to be a total loser. Now, George, hmmmm! I'll take that. LOL!
We all are entitled to our own opinion of course and our way of doing things - nm
xx
ICs are not entitled to vacation, insurance, etc. If you are
wanting benefits you need to be an employee.
Correct: If you are an IC, you are not entitled to unemployment
Have you talked directly with them about your concerns?
IMO, every client is entitled to have their reports the way they would like
them. For example, Roman numerals were accepted and correct for years before whoever decided they were in charge decided to change them. They is why each client should have dedicated MTs to their account. Those MTs will learn the account and transcribe it per client's wishes. I hate putting the actual patient name in a report, but certain facilities want it that way.
-and the last time I checked, we were all entitled to our own opinion. nm
:
Grow up. As I mentioned, we are all entitled to our own opinion...
I was certainly not saying I was representing "everyone's" sentiments. I offered insite into WHY I believe not everyone will care to answer the original question.
I have no idea what your problem is, and I don't care. Grow up.
People are entitled to express their own opinions, right? . . . So . . .
if their view doesn't happen to be the same as yours, they are judging and only come here to cause problems. Good grief! Everyone's opinion has validity as just that - AN OPINION.
Even though I may not agree with someone, I still respect their right to have their own opinion/view. Just because I have I different stance doesn't mean I think they are stupid or wrong. People can disagree without a "war."
I meant to type--they feel entitled and are
nm
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, no one would accuse you of enabling.

2 years experience and you passed the CMT? That speaks volumes about the AAMT... SM
I've been saying it for a while now. The CMT test is not an assessment of an MT's skills and knowledge medical terminology, pharmacology, anatomy and physiology knowledge you are, but how well you've memorized the BOS.
Well, congrats anyway I guess, for memorizing a bunch of useless rules and regulations that will undoubtedly change in the next five years when a new "updated" version of the BOS is published.
According to the latest Plexus journal entitled "Planning Your exit" ....
even editing may soon be a thing of the past. I don't have the journal, but I have heard about at least one article making the point that, even though the unedited reports produced by physicians using VR are atrocious, the quality (or lack thereof) is beginning to be acceptable anyway with seemingly no concern about the how the poor quality of these reports might impact patient safety or quality of health care. The article makes the observation that this trend may be the harbinger of the death of our profession, hence the title, "Planning Your Exit." Anyone have the journal and, if so, can you share more of what it has to say?
There is an old adage - "He that writes like he speaks writes badly." nm
Doctors need to learn that they are creating a document that is going to be read by others.
I work for a hospital where the gastroenterologists compete to see who can dictate their endo in the fastest time. They deserve the blanks.
No one speaks shimma shimma, its mumbling, in any language.

Ignore my post. I finally found the post on how to do this. nm

Yes, I tried to post same last night about 10 times, and it won't let me post.
I used to breed lab puppies (please no activist flames)! I had a champion female white Canadian lab, and people would be on a list for years if by chance I bred her, which I did twice, and so that I could continue her line. Anyhow, she's my sweet Skye who passed away 2 months ago? At any rate, we had the same problems with kids in the "hood" who wanted to come over and play once the puppies were old enough to be exercised daily and played with. At first I thought, how cute, right? Puppies and little kids - what better picture! Well, the majority of kids were adorable, but there were always 1 or 2 sick ones who would smack the pups, smash and hold their heads in the dirt (a real common thing, but I don't know why - psychiatrist anyone). At any rate, I finally had to ban the whole group due to the 1 or 2 creeps, had to call the police, the whole 9 yards, and that's EXACTLY what the police officer told me - next thing is there will be poison meat or a donut in the yard. He told me to always go out and patrol my yard, especially alone the fence line every day before I let the dogs out, particularly at night. I went out with a flashlight. It was about a month later, but sure enough - poison meat. Because there were so many kids involved, we obviously couldn't pin point the exact family, but the police went and read the riot act to them all. It would stop and not happen again for a year or so, but every now and again we would find something. My dogs were NEVER out and barking, so it was nothing like that - it was just over the puppies and the cruel kids.... Not trying to freak you, but that's the way these kids and their families are. You can really judge someone's character by ill treatment of a PUPPY, of all things. And the parents?? They sound whacked. Please be careful.
Sorry, I posted this post under the wrong post

Excellent post! I copied this post and...

 Which mean post was the straw that broke the poster's back.
Yes, she had post partum depression AND post partum psychosis. I posted on this a while back, and
it explained the two. The psychosis actually develops after the depression. Scary stuff.
