Orlando Sentinel
They started about 8 years ago with a column in their newspaper that published on Tuesday and Friday, I think. People would call in comments about any topic - the Editor printed some of them. It was fun at first, then people started getting really belligerent about things.
Orlando vacation tickets

We are planning a trip to Orlando over spring break. Does anyone have experience with purchasing tickets on-line or purchasing them at the hotel travel desk, pros and cons of each? We went years ago before Internet and purchased everything when we got there and would like to do that again. Any suggestions?

We're in the process of making a cookbook at our church, and I put this one in. My MIL makes it, and it is so good!
My phone rarely (if ever) rings, but my -
cat is constantly interrupting me, getting in front of my monitor to get attention. Either that, or she'll sit in the kitchen and yowl until I come out to see what on earth is wrong - only to find she's all bummed out because there's a single cat-hair floating in her water dish. :/
Rings on 5 fingers, bracelets on both wrists. nm

Do you wear rings or other jewellery while you transcribe?
I am finding I cant stand to have anything on when I work now.  Weird.
so if someone else posts something that rings true, you ignore it? you need adminstrator approval?
first you cry to administrators to fight your battles and now if they tell you that they wrote the post, you will take it to heart but otherwise, you don't care? dano, you need a psychiatrist to see why you need authority figures approval and why you are still tattling to get this authority figures attention. seriously. you got issues.
Belly button rings just look plain nasty on older woman, trying to act young.

I'm all ears
I am totally frustrated myself and so ready for a change. Trust me, I can relate.
Protect ears where you can
I recently bought a new blow dryer that is louder than my old one. I have started putting cotton in my ears while blow drying, and it muffles the high, painful whine. I suddenly have more patience with styling my hair, so I guess it may have been bothering me before this, too, and I didn't realize why I could hardly wait to finish.
definitely UNFAIR. You are our 2nd set of ears and still MTs. NM
.
OMG - My ears are always itchy - I actually
have an "ear itcher" that I keep on my desk - kinda gross, but what can ya do. I thought it was just me. I don't think I could go without them though, I work too much and my ears get sore. I guess I'll try Radioshack and Staples, if not, I guess I'll get them online. Thanks
You could use headphones that go over the ears
over your hearing aids, such as the noise-canceling headphones. I would assume this would work just fine. I don't like to wear my noise-canceling headphones because they get too hot, however.
My aching ears

Hi everyone!  Just wondering if you all have suggestions for inexpensive headphones that don't hurt your ears, but have good sound quality.  I have 2 different ones that I use and I prefer the sound quality of my little "bud" type, but they end up really hurting my ears after several hours of use.  The other are much more comfortable, but I lose sound quality.  I guess I'm looking for the best of both worlds -- oh, and inexpensively, too!!   (I don't ask for much, huh?)


Take care all! 


and most of them have cellphones stuck in their ears. nm

Unfortunately, it will fall on deaf ears.
But give it a shot.

hears to ears through to threw
Sorry no wonder you are so down on being a Transcriptionist as it is evident you have problems spelling. 
magots in the groin and ears....

Ears now beat red and they are off for good.

My ears are not beat red and killing me.  I love the NC and they help quite ambient noise even with the feature off but wowzers.  Back to my cheapos for me.  I may try the Koss headphones and see if they are any better.  Hubby is not working so he gets to do all the running. He is going to kill me.


 


Oh, Lord
And if you read it on the internet, it must be true, right?
Oh, lord, so did I! LOL! NM

Oh Lord!
:(
Oh Lord!
That's the problem with MTg with a lot of newbies.  They never bother to employ a medical spell check that will underline mispelled words as they go!  This word is BASIC.  You should have learned how to spell it correctly the first week in MT school, or did you NOT get schooling and just "learned on your own" or "learn as I go?"
I thank the Lord every day
I do thank the Lord every day.  I love my accounts, where else can I make $4500  to 5000 a month and work at home.  They provide me the income to live where I want to live - watch the sun come up over the river every morning.  I am so thankful that I have what I have.  My accounts do not bore me, I like my doctors, the office staff are my friends -- we share good times, bad times.  I  would not go back into an office again for all the money in the world.  I do thank the Lord every day with my first cup of coffee because I am grateful for this. 
I have real hearing loss (30%) in both ears and
was recommended to get 2 hearing aids, but did you ever price those things? 1200 for one? So I got one. I barely use it. I can't use it for work as it isn't small enough to accomodate the headphones. But since I got on DEP, the only good thing about it is the voice comes through the speaker right into my headset so I actually have to turn it DOWN. I was evaluated and wanted to hear so bad that it was work related but they say mine is congenital, and with a little digging into my family's history I realize that it is. I do know plenty of MTs, however, who do have credible hearing loss with no other factors. I mean, come on, how could you not? The secret is to keep the volume as LOW as you can stand it to try and avoid any loss. I also have terrible ringing and think that is job related.
My daughter is 17 and has never wanted her ears pierced!
She has always been involved in sports and would have to take them out during a game or put a band-aid over them. I wanted that to be something she wanted, and she has never wanted her ears pierced. For prom we bought clip-ons and they looked pretty nice. I was afriad they would be tacky. She might want to get them pierced before next prom but, again, that will be HER decision.

snot suckers, in our ears, like they don't know we hear that

Lord, I hope she's not an MT sm
talk about giving us a bad name! sheesh!
Praise the Lord!
 Jesus!
Good Lord!
The original poster asked a question that only a person who has done at least 2 reports with lab data would know what they were saying! COME ON! If she took the time and necessary brain matter to realize that the 41 was a test result and separated it from the rest of the phrase, she might have gotten it. Obviously, either this is a person has not had any training (if she did, she would have come across amylase and lipase a million times, they are so common) or she is just not cut out for being an MT. Just my opinion but then again, I've been in the business 25 years, what do I know!
Finally! Thank you Lord.
It's about time all of you whiners left MedQuist. I have had enough of you complainers. It is just more work for me now! Yeah!!!! Did any of you ever think that it is time to retire? If you can't understand DocQscribe, which is so basic, I love it, you probably shouldn't be a Transcriptionist anymore. I think that is why so many of you can't get your lines up because you don't know what you are doing in the program. Anyway, thank you lord that you all are leaving. It is about time you quit complaining and do something for once in your lives.
In regard to OH LORD
Per administrator you need to show some kindness to the new MTs. I doubt you yourself were so wonderful when you first started out. Try to remember we are all HUMAN and we all error at some point in our lives.
please don't take the Lord's name in vain....sm

if you kill unnecessarily, don't say GOOD LORD.......you think KILL first before RESCUE....and yes, do some research, snakes have feelings of fear and pleasure and feel with their tongues.


idiot.....probably a D.C./repub supporter too, kill first, ask questions later..... 


just our way of not taking the Lord's...sm

A way of not taking the Lord's name in vain.........My religious studies raised us this way.  It's done merely out of respect.


 Hope that answers your question. 


Oh my Lord, I could have written
Thank you for putting this into words that I've been thinking all along.  Phewee on QA.  QA is for weaklings.  Learn to swim or get out of the lake!!!!  
Oh Lord, I'd be depressed again too! :D nm

Harder on my eyes than my ears but I find it hard to

believe that listening to dictation could cause hearing loss.  Blasting music through headphones maybe, but not dictation.  I've been doing this for 20 years and have not noticed any difference in my hearing.


However, my eyes get soooooo tired.  I've started zooming in to make the print look bigger and that helps a lot.


Once a week, I clean my headset ears with alcohol.
Then swab out my ears after showering with Q-tips with alcohol on them. Keeps the itching down to nothing, and the ear wax doesn't build up that way, either.
Ears itch b/c of ear sponge bacteria (mine did)

Take off the sponges and clean the actual headset with rubbing alcohol damply applied to a towel, then replace the sponges.  Do this periodically.  Also, replace the sponges every month or so, especially in hot weather.


I have a pair of the earbuds (cheap ones) and they hurt my ears.
I couldn't wear them very long.
The Lord! All life belongs to Him!

The me again post was in reply to Oh Lord (sm)

I learned probably before you were born, and believe me, it was a lot harder then.  I've learned much over the years.  Another point I would like to make in regard to Fahrenheit.  If there was no spell check, and no one ever told you that you were spelling it wrong, how would you know?  That's why it drives me crazy when I see words like "definitely" spelled definately, "misspelled", spelled mispelled, and "there, their, and they're" mixed up.  People get mad when you correct them, but truly, they should know these words, and they should be happy to learn as long as it is not in a nasty way.  I had an argument one time with my son's first grade teacher.  She had them copy off the blackboard, something about daffodils, and it said something about "they're little petticoats."  I went berserk.  This was someone teaching MY CHILD the difference between the 3 "there, their, they're" words. 


Good lord, obviously you've never
spent hours and hours correcting the same mistakes over and over again or you wouldn't even ask. I thought her post was right on the money.
MQ board good lord
i need to go back to bed!!!!!!!!
good lord but how in the world do you do 300 lph???

"In the year of our Lord..."
Yeah, had a doc who dictated like THAT...'In this, the year of our Lord, Two-Thousand and Eight,' and demanded it be typed out like that. He had some other really bizarre, idiosyncratic stuff too, such as references to previous presidents (which I could remember the context in which he used those references).

I used to despise typing his reports, but I really felt bad for the poor referring physicians trying to read through all his eccentric extraneous babbling to get to what was wrong with the patient.

Some of these docs are just...WEIRD.

Lord love a duck! sm
You be on a real roll! No need to diss everybody, it just gets you nowhere on your way to no place. :D
