Check at transcriptiongear.com (sm)

They have a service for $66 a month (not sure if it would be worth it to you).  Better if you can get the doctor to pay for a digital dictator with docking station, then they can upload the files to their computer, email them or FTP them to you and you can play them on express scribe.


You can also check ebay for used call in systems but not sure if they have them. 


Good luck!

Gadgets or widgets are (sm)....
...little applications (also called "applets") that add extra functionality to a web application like your iGoogle homepage (you have to have a Google account, but they're free).

For instance, one gadget might show you the local weather after you tell it your zip code. Another gadget might present news headlines. Another gadget might provide you with an appointment calendar. Each person decides for herself which gadgets they want showing up on their homepage by browsing through a large list of them and selecting them - usually by a button that says "add this" or words to that effect.
Electronic gadgets, boxed movie sets, tickets to something

TranscriptionGear.com has footpedals
and can deliver them quickly. I got a GearPlayer, and it's great, but it didn't work for every place I tested with. I got through the testing even without a foot pedal, but it is annoying. Do use the F keys if it lets you. That helps a lot.

Transcriptiongear is a great site
I just purchased a new headset for my microcassette transcriber, and I actually chatted with a customer rep and she helped me find just the right one.  It was great.  I think it is 8-8 eastern time for the chat option though.  It was very helpful.  I cannot wait to get them.  My earbuds were bad-off, but I treated myself to a whole new headset that I'll be more comfortable with.

2 kinds of VR

There are 2 kinds of speech recognition. Front-end, like Dragon Dictate, depends on the dictator stopping and correcting his mistakes as he goes. This is what your client should be using. Back-end speech recognition, like what InfraWare or eScription uses, recognizes that correction should occur after the fact by a qualified MT. Those systems provide the Editor with a first draft where the text is tied to the type for easy editing. Your client is confused - not you. Dragon Dictate was not meant to be used this way.


transcriptiongear.com has these things, too. Great service. nm

That is why there are all kinds of people
in this world. Different strokes for, well you know the rest. There are lots of fish in the sea. Where 1 don’t work, another 1 will. I could go on and on but I think you might get my idea.
Why not first try with other kinds of transcription
If you are a good transcriptionists there are companies that hire "general" transcriptists to do all kinds of work--interviews, insurance interviews, focus groups, etc. I would start here and learn the process of applying for work, testing, and all that. This is a big part to learn when applying for online work. Some of these services also do medical transcription and you could back in that way. Just Google words like insurance transcription, focus group transcription, business transcription and you will be surprised what you will find. Don't just sit and wait for medical. These companies would give you great training and exposure to working on web platforms and QA and that kind of thing. You have every shot in the world to do this as a starting point. Most services like this want some experience and may start you low but you've got to start somewhere. Then you can start filling up your resume to show you at least have worked for some services. In the meantime you can poke around trying to test/apply with some MTSOs. Are there any services in your area you could sub for? Best of luck.
Get an Infinity USB pedal from transcriptiongear.com or the Transcription warehouse. I think

There are all kinds of ways to prevent
a pregnancy, not the least is abstinence.   Why people are so irresponsible is beyond me and then an innocent life will suffer because of her stupidity. 
You go OP! Thank goodness those kinds of people...
weren't the ones we needed to depend on in the past 250 yrs.  Where would we be now?  My ex-husband earns a VERY GOOD salary from the training he received in the Army.  He has no college degree, just his military training, which is highly specialized and has provided him with a good income for many years.
I prefer pie here, too. Always have birthday pie, usually two kinds.

Been in this biz for over 15 years, and I've seen all kinds...
a doc who used to snort cocaine in and out of surgery - a pain management doc who used to sell OxyContin on the side to his friends and friends' associates and was just lately sentenced to a prison term - another doctor who was just thrown in jail for one year and fined bucco bucks plus lost his licence to practice medicine for hitting on women patients. Another one who was a drunkard and would operate on his patients in a stupor. All except for three docs have been arrogant, pompous, money-hungry know-it-alls who run totally dysfunctional offices and hire totally dysfunctional employees, seemingly not caring one iota about their patients with the exception of how much he can bill off of them. They dictate like they're half in the bag and could give a fig. The only thing of major concern to the, it obviously appears, is what five-star cruise line they're going to take their family on vacation for two months out of the year. LOL!
We brew different kinds at home....sm
I love grinding my coffee and mixing flavors. our favorites to mix are hazelnut and irish creme. My husband & I go to Starbucks once a week and usually get the caramel frappuccino as a treat - love that stuff!
Takes all kinds in this world I guess.
Bite me.
Probably echoing the others, but this mother of 3 has been though all kinds of these things.
I'd advise not to buy a vehicle for her. You're just setting yourself up for more problems once you put wheels and more freedom into her mix of things. She's not going to be a happy camper but you've got to stand your ground with her. Bring the secrets to the forefront and try to gain her understanding about your feelings and what this does to you. Hopefully it's not to late to get her attention and understanding. In the meantime, you certainly don't want to add to your frustration by putting a car in the mix, it will mean the worst for you (that's just my opinion though). What you do totally is up to you, but she needs you to be strong to possibly save her from herself.
These kinds of posts never cease to amaze me (sm)

Your company didn't have to send you anything. A card is a gift -- which is optional. Since when should a recipient of a gift get to dictate what the gift is or is not?

Also, I don't think you mentioned the size of your company. Consider that not only is your attitude about the whole thing probably way off, but also you're not being realistic to think a company would have time to send each employee an individualized message.

They remembered you. They took time to send SOMETHING. Be glad and grateful. Did you send them anything?


My idea on what the U.S. should do about offshoring work of ALL kinds... (s/m)

I can understand U.S. companies wanting to cut costs and make a profit, and that of course is why they offshore.  Even though it's at a huge cost to American workers.  Which of course ultimately hurts the overall economy, because displaced workers have much less money to spend on goods & services, etc. 


Offshoring isn't likely to be outlawed (though I sure wish it were, especially when it comes to sensitive records, such as financial and medical records!)  But don't you think that if the U.S. is going to allow companies to send work offshore, those companies should have to pay a pretty hefty TAX for that privilege?  


Here in Calif., our infrastructure such as roads, bridges, school system, fire and police departments, etc. is crumbling, and always needs more money.  So of course they continue to raise taxes on us working-class people - the same ones whose jobs are going offshore!  They get a little from the Lottery, and a little more from Indian casinos, who are paying the state for the privilege of running gambling casinos in a state where gambling casinos aren't legal!  There is a tax on liquor and tobacco.  All of those things aren't really good for people, and should be taxed.


Well, offshoring work away from hard-working, middle-class Americans isn't good for people, either!  So don't you think companies should be encouraged to keep their work onshore by a TAX that would not only help each state in this country pay for things, but also remove the huge profits those companies make by taking good jobs away from Americans?  Maybe that money could even be used to save our failing Social Security system.

had a similar issue with TWC and they had done some upgrades and the modem I had was no longer compatible.  The tech knew what the problem was the minute he saw the modem, only it took me about 3 months and threatening to cancel for them to get out here.

DID you check with Social Security& does your son receive a check???

Go to SSA.gov and research the payee options.  You may have to use the search engine, but your answer to this particular issue should be there.


I am disabled and while my kids were minors, I had to fill out a form each year on how I, as the payee spent each and every penny of the money they received.  I don't see how his mother can justify how she spent his money for things that you normally would pay.


That said, he is getting Social Security right?  Is your son receiving a dependent check?  Under law, if a parent is disabled and has minor children, each and every one of those children also receive a check until they turn 18 or graduate from high school, which ever comes first.


The check is a percentage of your husbands, so for 800.00, your son should receive at least 350.00.  If you have not been getting this, they would pro-rate it back to when your husbands disability started and that in itself, could solve a lot of your financial problems.  You can also find this out on their website,  HTH


I found out a long time ago that there are two kinds of editing.. one is editing MTs work (like QA)
and the other is editing as in VR. I have done VR editing, but when I put down this as experience on a resume, I was asked by the HR person if this meant that I had "edited" other MTs work. I think there is a lot of confusion out there and I wish they would just keep that as QA instead of calling it editing. Just be clear in what you want to edit as most companies that expect you to "edit" other MTs in a QA position do require you have a lot of experience. If you just going for VR editing, which is what Transcend has available and there are a few companies out there doing VR, none of which I think really require much experience as it is easy to learn. Hope I made some sense and it can be pretty confusing on how companies use the term "editing" thus it effects their expectations as far as experience goes.
no - don't check out wildblue. check out hughesnet. sm
i was on wildblue. i absolutely HATED it. i paid $400 for install and equipment and bill was $51.51 a month for smallest plan. no bills, had to be direct debit from credit card or bank. wasn't a lot faster than dial up and i frequently went over my download limit so i had to upgrade to the $80/mo plan. speed was no faster on their "fastest plan". they had a 1-yr contract and only 1-yr warranty. well 20 days (kid you not) out of warranty my tria (the eye on the dish) went out and it cost me a total of $275 for replacement and tech call (had to wait a week and a half before tech could come and then he no showed and rescheduled for the next day stating he didn't have the equipment he needed to fix me and the repair order had been in for over a week by that time. no call to say he wasn't coming either, just no showed). they TRIED to sell me the entire package all over again to get me locked into another 1-yr contract and i declined. it was best in their book so your warranty and equipment would be "new". i had to tell them for 5 months to change which credit card to debit from, never could get it right. had to tell them for 3 months when my phone number changed. i could not wait until the day my 1-yr contract was over. have heard really good things about hughesnet. i think it is a tad more a month, but supposedly a lot faster than wildblue and not near as many problems from what i have heard from others. wildblue was down for an entire week at one point throughout the year i was on it. always got lost signals and page cannot be found multiple, multiple times throughout the day. i used wildblue with VPN (with transtech) and could not keep a connection enough to get a decent line count as i was dropping signals too much and it did slow it way down. i finally got clinic work rather than acute care where time and speed wasn't a factor. research message boards for complaints about wildblue and hughesnet before deciding. also hughesnet i think told me a 2-yr warranty rather than only the 1-yr with wildblue.
