Does your program change lower case to upper? If so, type all in lower and
it will change the ones it is supposed to.
I wouldn't use lower case. I'd use upper case. Don't worry about it. nm

Upper case is lower, lower case is upper. Using InstaText. Anyone know how to fix this?

Aargh.  It happened all day yesterday.  When I brought in text that was all caps


IMPRESSION:


and had lower case on keyboard (as always do), it reverses keyboard commands.  This is driving me c-r-a-z-y.


web site with capped/lower case meds??

HPI General Surgery/GI Words and Phrases shows lower case also. nm

If Word, Shift + F3 cycles thru upper/lower/title case.

I wouldn't lower my rates. Should I request a lower CPL from my employer
because I use a ton of normals, templates and such to increase my line count?
Ooops!
You apparently have been signed up for Miss Sandra's Proper Education MT Class below. LOLOLOLOL

Ooops!! Sorry. That is YOU, not your


Ooops.
 Hopefully the low-wage countries are also low-hyphen countries, as I see that I left several out in the above message that I was racing to finish.

Ooops, wrong!
What do you mean QA aren't on the front line and aren't responsible for TAT? Hello? What do you think the very last encounter is before a report is going to the hospital/client? A report w/QA markers and flagged? A STAT? QA definitely is very much a part of the delivery system of a report. If everyone did THEIR jobs and not focus on OTHER PEOPLE'S jobs, we'd all be a lot happier!
Ooops! Typo.
I did type it wrong on my original post.  It is Ctrl+Insert+Insert that I use.  I am out of it today...typical Monday blahs.   Thanks!

She must. Probably gets that big lower lip from

Ooops, sorry. My last post said "head head." I meant "her head." Sorry.

Right lower quadrant ...
Sharp stabbing-like pain...can go away suddenly. Tenderness. Hurts if you jump off a little stool. LOL ER doc had me do that and nearly fainted. LOL

With the lower pay per line, I'd have to be able to
get 700-800 lph under that platform to make more money and there is no way to do that.  The higher uppities have even admitted it is best for the slower people, not someone fast.
I would not lower the rate. They know how
much they are paying you and have accepted it.
Don't lower your rates
Don't lower your rate! Don't feel guilty! Feel blessed. I'm envious--am on an account where it is impossible to understand them let alone make a macro but if I could I would and not feel bad at all. I have years invested in this just like the Dr's. You should be paid for your time and expertise macro or not.
Did you mean DSG and TransTech pay LOWER than 8.5??

Hey, I have never made lower than 99% on my
I'm just plain good and fast at what I do.

I don't want hourly rates or salaries. I make plenty on production.

I'm outta here on this deadhorse conversation! LOL


Never lower your rate

I would never, ever lower my rates.  Is the one doctor in the group that is complaining a constant whiner?  He may just be a tightwad that still has the first .01 he ever earned.  Think about it - we complain about the cost of gas increasing and the cost of groceries increasing, but those businesses sure aren't going to drop the price of their product due to our complaining just to keep our business.  You run a business and the point of that is to earn money.  If you or a family member had to see this particular doctor, would he drop his office visit rate because you complained about his bill?  Never!


Not only that, these are cardiologists - one of the elite money makers in the medical profession. 


Write a note stating that you understand his concerns about the cost, but state that in spite of your expenses increasing along with everything else recently, you will agree not to go up on your rate for a year instead.  Tell him while there is less expensive out there, it comes back to the old saying of, "you get what you pay for." 


Yup, and it'll most likely only go lower, right about
:(
Maybe it's a new, CHEAP way to lower their
Could happen..........
MT profession getting lower
I would rather not work for a company that doesn't value our experience enough to pay a decent salary. Good luck. I pass.
Line Count...lower pay

I have been doing transcription for many years now.  For many of those years I was paid 9 cents/line per 70 character count with the WordPerfect 5.1 (DOS) program.  I have now been switched over to Microsoft Word and there is a variation in word/line count and a drop in my pay.  Can anyone explain this please?


Upper and lower lid blepharoplasty.

Was setting up a surveillance camera because I am a single woman who lives alone. 


 


 As I was programming it, I could a glimpse of myself and nearly fell off the chair!   I loook old and tired (47). 


Have been so busy and so stressed for the last six months, I haven't really taken care of myself.  I just joined gym, quit smoking, am cleaning up my act.


But, nothing is going to take the bags away from my eyes.  Am thinking of plastic surgery.  If anyone has had this done, can you tell me whether it was worth the money to you?


As you know, I am far from rich but have few bills other than the general overhead (no credit cards).


thanks!  I work very hard and it would be a gift to myself.


Big mistake to every go lower than what you currently make. Don't do it.

mydocsonline is a lower priced (sm)
option if you only have a few clients. Price goes up the more users you add.
No, it was United that offered lower than 8 cpl. nm

Sis has had them, here in lower NY state. $60-85 every other week. nm

I just started lower carb again too
and I absolutely love carbs.  I love thick crusty bread, chips, pretzels, etc.  A few years ago hubby and I did Atkins and we both lost 20+ pounds. I had gained some of it back, and then my dad died in October and I gained about 10 more pounds since then.  I stay up late and watch tv and eat.  Hubby wanted to go back on low carb and I was really resistant, but went ahead and started on Monday with him.  We're not doing strict Atkins induction this time.  Kind of in between South Beach and Atkins.  I've really watched my carbs this week, though, even though I know I've had more than 3 cups of leafy veggies each day.  Anyway, I love carbs, but I am already to the point where I'm not missing them.  Seriously, my son had a bunch of fries left over last night and offered them to me and I turned them down...and I love fries.  The other thing I've done is I've been drinking lots of diet green tea...trying out different brands.  I swear my appetite is very down, a combination of the diet and drinking the green tea maybe?  Since Monday, my weight is down 8 pounds, and I'm kind of in my "bloated phase" of the month, too.
Services are having to lower their prices, too..sm
I get routinely outbid for work by other services who are willing to do 24 hour TAT and fax or print the reports - all for 11 cents per line...So don't be too sure the services are making all the money either!
But you see, that's the problem. The lower wages go in the US, (sm)
the less any of us want to pay for things. But when you're on a limited budget and can't buy things any old time you want, one way to save money is to buy QUALITY. Then it LASTS. I may buy a couple cheap T-shirts at Ross that were made in Bangladesh, but I know they're expendable. I'll end up shrinking them the first time I wash them, and then use them as dust rags. But if I'm buying a coat, or a dress, or a CAR, then I go for quality. Even if it means waiting longer to get it, because then it will last, ultimately saving money in the long run. If I have to pay more for things (like gas, groceries, rent, etc.), then I demand a higher wage. If I don't get it, I look for an employer that will pay it. Too many people in this country (and especially offshore!)"settle" for the crappy wage just to get their foot in the door. Sometimes it's just better to go look for a different door.
