steering your son in the right direction
Posted By: way to go! on 2006-07-12
In Reply to: my interview attire suggestions paid off (sm) - interviewee's MOM
See, just the fact that the person interviewing him noticed and actually commented on his outfit says a lot. He has already made a good impression even before his first day. And, yes, orientation means that he definitely got the job! I remember I used to work at Kmart when I was 17 and I loved it. Not only can he just be satisfied with doing a good job, but they can give him better positions if he keeps making such a good impression. Standing out is what it takes and he has alraedy presented himself in a professional way. He will work hard there--take my word for it-- but he will also have a lot of fun. It has been almost 20 years since I worked there and I still see people that worked there then when I go in there. It is a good first job.

You are steering her wrongly..what if the QA is RIGHT and she is the one
lacking? You have no clue as to whether that is true or not. Being that she is a newbie, I feel I would trust the QA in this area. But again, we do not know the full situation. We do not know what she is being corrected on. What she needs to do is research everything that she is being corrected on via the BOS and other resources and find out if she is right or wrong THEN go from there.

Well, that's a step in the right direction!!!
Level the playing field a bit!
Thx for sharing!
Well, at least you are headed in the right direction! sm
I have no clue what to even get started with. I had thought about accounting, but I'm really not all that great with numbers. And to tell you the truth, it would be nice to have some sort of job where I can physically move around. I think the sitting is really getting to me! I swear I'm developing ADHD in my "old age".... ha! Old at 39! But regardless, I know I need to have some variety and movement in my job.
I have considered becoming a P.A. Would need to take some upgrading on my physics and again, math is a weak point and I would have to work extra hard on that point.
Otherwise, I'm clueless for ideas. I have horses and really love working with them, but it's pretty hard to make a decent living with horses. I also enjoy horticulture, but I live on the prairies and horticulture is rarely do-able when it's blistering cold outside unless you've spent millions on indoor facilities!
Ideas? Thoughts? Help! 
wrong direction
If it takes you 3 hours to transcribe an hour of dictation & you want to make 30 an hour, you would charge $90 per hour of dictation.
Another way to look at it (but you have to be more familiar with your dictators to do it this way) is to figure a minute of dictation is roughly equal to 12 lines (this is where the familiarity comes in -- I've had dictators as slow as 8 lines a minute & as fast as 15). That's 720 lines per hour of audio dictation. If you figure 10 cpl, that's $72 per hour of audio.
At $10 per audio hour you'd be making less than 2 cents a line.
That's a good step in the right direction...
I have all girls, so for some reason they are not the least bit interested in video games, but they used to have their own TVs in their rooms and since we just moved this summer, I never hooked them back up. They don't watch half as much TV, maybe only 30 to 60 min a day now, if that. We all make mistakes. But I do think these video games are bad for little kids. Educational stuff maybe, but not the crud that's out there now. Good job.
Can anyone point me in the general direction
of making templates? I have no idea what I am doing or where to start. I have looked in the archives, but keep finding posts related to jobs that pay for templates, etc. Thanks in advance 
Also, is it possible to really use templates when doing a very large acute care hospital?
In school now. Unsure which direction to go but
degree in Health Information Administration with a master's in Health Care Administration.
Not really. This is the direction of computers -see inside
When I had a Windows 95 computer WITHOUT any "security patches" or "updates" from the Microsoft Web site, I had a stand-alone box. That is, I never got any Spam, no popups, nothing.
I had this from 1998 to 2003. Then, in 2003 I decided to do the "security patches" etc. for Windows 95 that are availble on the Microsoft Web site. Then, I had popups up the wazoo, had to get spy ware, and it ruined my computer.
This is a topic on all the computer sites. IF you buy a NEW computer from let's say Compaq or H-P, those I know, it will come PRE-LOADED with a tremendous amount of stuff which is just basically advertising, basically just a way for the "advertisers" to access your machine. PRobably this is all the computer manufacturers.
THe short story on this is I think Microsoft thinks that's the way to go. THey built a software we have to buy and operate with, but it is really for the benefit of the people who want to sell us something. I miss my "black box" of Windows 95 without any upgrades. It was so much nicer. Just mine. But I too see SPAM with my name on it, not a common name. And they are obviously getting it off my computer name.
One more thing to thank Bill for.
They cant take direction, make same mistakes over.

I now have trouble which direction sounds are coming from.
I can hear just fine, but I cannot distinguish where sounds are coming from. Drives me nuts when the phone rings and I can't find the darn thing!
I agree with this, but I trade off in the opposite direction. SM
Mine are more clear in my distance vision, and I put on reading glasses from time to time when I need them. I only have to do this when the print is very small or when my eyes ore tired. Otherwise, I also like my bifocal contacts. My are made by AccuVue.
Glad somebody got us going in the right direction! Signed and delivered! Thanks!...nm

Dont you think though as thing move in that direction which they already are in EMRs that little by
little jobs will be lost and hospitals will take over more of their transcription work with VR and EMR. I would think that it will be that way.
E-mail me - I can steer you in the right direction to get your money back from Ms. Pineda.

Can point in a direction but takes reading, re-reading sm
Goggle.com and enter various phrases to get articles and companies. I use a free doanload of ExpressScribe, yep, it is free. They have a number of various software things on their site to read and perhaps one will fit. The express Scribe is a piece of sotware to download, it is very simple and I like simple. You can listen and transcribe various voice file formats. You can use a wav pedal one is called a serial pedall and I think it is 9 pin and plugs in the back of PC and also another pedal I think a 15 pin wav pedal and goes in the USB port in front. However, you can also use it without a pedal and it works fine. You use a couple of key to stop, pause, rewind, I forget the key. There are a lot of pedals so don't just jump in. On this site you may benefit from emailing the company after reading and rereading, even if you don't understand. .

if you live among trashy people, low income people, people w/o goals or direction,
content to just get by, you by default become a part of a group. "people" have decided to group trailer people as trash. that is because there are enough people in that group to earn the title and even if you aren't trash, you are categorized by others. did i think i was trash in lower class neighborhood surrounded by people who drank and fought all weekend? no but i knew i wasn't staying and did not try to pretend that all the fools in the neighborhood were just nice folks who ended up where they were because high horse snobs deemed their neighborhood low class. people for the most part live exactly where they belong because they don't want to educate themselves, they don't mind "trash" around them and they don't want to be bothered trying just a bit hard to extract themselves from that world. they justify everything to themselves i guess saying everyone who doesn't like their lifestyle is a snob and the comedians (Jeff Foxworthy/Chris Rock, etc) who make fun of them are just ill-informed.
As for me, I fought hard to get out and don't even want to look back. It amazes me people stay for generations.
