WAY TO GO PITTSBURGH!!! NM
@
I have heard both good and bad--and I work there.
I am a recent transplant due to the company I was working for, TRS, being acquired by Transcend on April 1. No fooling. So far, so good....

If I remember correctly, according to their website, they require 5 years of acute care experience--which, when I was looking for a job, I did not have, and therefore they would not even let me test. And now they've got me anyway. Go figure.

My own experience has been fine so far, but I am still working under my former TRS supervisors, on the same accounts. Others' mileage may vary.

Please feel free to e-mail if you think I can answer any more questions. I am crankybeach at yahoo dot com.

Kansas City, MO Thanks! nm

Why does everyone think Kansas City, MO is
Kansas City, Kansas as well, but for the most part when you hear KANSAS CITY it is referring to Missouri.  The Kansas City Chiefs are in MISSOURI, not Kansas.  Downtown Kansas City (the one you hear about) is in MISSOURI, not Kansas.

Kansas utility bills
Hi, I live on the Kansas/Oklahoma border have a 3000 sq ft home (2 levels) and 2 boys who don't know how to close doors. Anyway, our last electric bill was $260.00. This was keeping thermostat at 80 upstairs with ceiling fans going in every room. If it gets too warm, you just go downstairs where you have to wrap up in a blanket as there is a good 10 degrees difference in temp. I have to admit, I thought mine was high but am now thinking we don't have it too bad. Good luck to all and hopefully, we will still be able to pay these next year at this time and the rates won't have put us all in the poor house.
Any experienced Kansas City MTs here

I need two MTs, clinic work, each for an average 500 to 1000 lines a day Monday through Friday, but usually around 700 to 800 lines.  Would like MTs who are really experienced and can turn in work ready to go to the client.  If interested, email me and we can discuss the work, pay, etc.


MUST have C-phone and you could start as early as Monday if you like!

I have an opening...sm
email me with your pasted resume and we'll talk.
I saw a job opening for mt at
a women's state prison in California.  They didn't require that much experience, pay and benefits were excellent.  It was too far from where I lived and I didn't know if I would like the environment.   Prisoner 






Wow! This is eye-opening

You two have really given me some thought-provoking info.


I had no idea it was this bad.  That is a hellish training period for such a pathetic salary.  Exactly the opposite of what I've been reading.  The websites I read from truly did quote up to $40. per hour, computer equipment given to you and a growing field, not shrinking!


Yes, I do work for slave wages, but I have a mortgage to pay and student loans and I am a single woman so I have to find something.  Maybe a paper route . . .


Thanks for the info!


They might be having an opening soon.

I am opening up a transcription (sm)
business myself. I am fed up with the hospitals who are going voice recognition and are using a digital system for attendings, so I decided why not!! Another MT and I are do this and hopefully we will be successful. I am going in with someone on the computer end as well.
did you try opening the file?
If so, what did the instruction say?  Do you have to open it with a special program?  Is this a wav file?  If not, what type of file is this (it will say at the end of the document/file name)?
That's an eye-opening article -
and scary, too.  My MTSO was just taken over by Acusis......... 
Still not opening at all for me. I emailed
s
This is eye opening information and I will be

looking into more IRS laws.  This is VERY interesting as the company I work for does not pay my taxes but dictates hours, etc.  They also have violated HIPAA regulations and I will be inquiring as to what actions can be taken there.


Thanks for enlightening me. 


I live in the Kansas City area and this summer we have had a rash of pit bull attacks especially

in the Independence, MO area.  The city governments have passed laws banning pit bulls and last week something like 100+ pitbulls were picked up by animal control or dropped off at the city pound and all were destroyed.


Personally, I think the owners of these animals should be held just as accountable as the dog.  Well, I guess maybe putting the owner to sleep is a bit extreme.


I'm so sorry about your lab.


Opening up Pandora's box of wine
Hey Patti, it's ok to talk about drinking and transcribing. People react strongly because it hits a raw nerve. It's a topic that is kept in the dark. I suspect many transcriptionists do and have drank at the desk. I myself have had a small glass of wine on occasion when I have been so stressed out, like when I have been given a 30-day notice that my work is going to India! Or my foreign-accented dictator yells at me for something stupid! I venture to say that perhaps more transcriptionists have a glass or two of liquor toward the end of their shift than they would care to admit. I just think you got such a response because it is a topic most transcriptionists have thought about in one way or another. I'm not saying it is ok or it is morally wrong. It does happen though.
Opening of her broadway show
It was the opening of her broadway show, The Color Purple that Letterman escorted her to.  However, I dont like Oprah, never have.  The fawning and oohing and ahhing was quite sickening, if you ask me.
Opening any of this person's mail

If you do any of the things you mentioned, you will have broken the law.  It is against federal statutes to open someone else's mail, even if it was placed in YOUR mailbox.


Try opening the normal.dot and see if you can change it there. sm

I think it is some of the emoticons, but maybe only the first instance of them opening or posting.

I worked in a hospital in radiology, and when an opening in MR was available SM
I applied, got the job, and that is how I got my foot in the door.
Your opening statement about our President is disrespectful.

Whether or not you like him, he is still the President and that office should be respected. Unfortunately, your statement is reflective of the mindset and mentality of many in our country. And people have to ask why the rest of the world doesn't like us--we don't even like each other.


At the very least you should be respectful of those in positions of authority. It's modeling of appropriate behavior that our children see and emulate themselves.


Look through the Help section in it and just start opening up all the tabs and playing

please, need help with startstop opening windows sound recorder.

When I open a file from within startstop, it wants to open windows sound recorder, and then it wants to open a file located somewhere else on my hard drive.


Sometimes it will open the file I want to listen to, and the windows sound recorder flashes on the screen a couple of times.


Is anyone having that problem? I've emailed and called startstop but no response to email and no return call from startstop tech support.


 Any info you have is greatly appreciated. I'm on version 9.8.7
