sad aint it...

In Reply to: What's with the hostility - me

i think so many MTs are fed up with a lot of things goin on in this field that when they vent, its just that.

then again, like other jobs, in the medical field, there are a lot of people that use whatever knowledge they have as a weapon.

i think the average is about 40k (i hope). my main job is 38,400/y but that is with hourly pay. im a single mom so i would need to at least look for another part time, if not full time job to live.

dis aint bout me
I was consistently getting 1200 lpd after transcribing for 6 months on a very difficult VA account. I think MQ'ers just like to whine. Take whining out of your vocabulary and make so $$$.
aint that a word?
 I'm originally from PA and was taught very early on in school not to use aint.  What does annoy me is some talk in the past tense all the time.  I guess I feel that way because they add "ed" on to a lot of words. Some areas aren't as bad as others though with this. 
LOL, aint that the truth!

On subject of VR, aint no way
newbies can do and neither can slow typists, that is at my place of employment. You have to be seasoned to know just as much about VR as you would regular transcription. You have to be extremely fast in reading the text because speed is money. I usually typed around 2000 or a little over straight. If making 8 cents a line for straight, that would mean I would have to edit 4000 lines with VR. I am told some in my company do that much but I don’t and have never in the several years I have worked on VR. If anyone thinks newbies would be good to do VR, then that person really does not know anything about VR and the knowledge you have to have, same as doing transcription only reading very, very fast and changing any and all that might be wrong in the report. My system is very easy to use, very user friendly. Some, I hear, are not.
She aint even bubbly...I can think of other words that fit, though...nm

Aint gonna happen..if and when - sm
they do pass any laws against sending personal / medical information overseas, they'll just leave out any identifying information and instead cross-match reports with assigned numbers, much like SS# over here.
