Never said people didn't have typos we are all human BUT the mistakes I stated were NOT typos

I probably QA where you work..hmmmmm


What is going on that gives you that indication?
We had to do guess work in the office we were in as it was closing.
I find that this is usually an indication that
the company is looking for another company to buy it. Remember, the number of MTs on-board is considered an asset in the overall selling price, same has the number of accounts and the revenue.

After you have been sold on the block like a slave, then you are treated like a slave so you will leave so you cannot make comparisons between old and new systems, management, etc.
Over 200 views, hot topic indication.

I think how accurately you type is a better indication of a good MT!
.
And I say an MT who transcribes like it SM
is 1995 (all the hyphens, MT's) is harder to deal with than an MT with only a couple of years' experience.
This individual is not someone who transcribes on
a routine basis, she was more like an account manager who assigned the work and now is assistant director of operations, I think, so I doubt she would have a stockpile of "normals" she made for herself on any account, nor have a super expansion file. Which leaves 1 explanation. I worked with her when she was at another company and she never typed there, more like a clerk-typist position.
the way the QA/MTSO transcribes
Are your being QA'd by an Indian? Does your employer outsource and do they use Indian QA? It is happening.
I beg to differ with you. An MT transcribes,
she/he should not have to translate/decipher what a rude person is trying to say. Doctors should realize, just as the MT does, how important that medical record is and that their dictation of that medical record is vitally important. Maybe they should be taught dictation and manners and grammar, etc.
Like it or not, a "transcriber" is "one who transcribes" sm
Transcriber - noun: someone who makes a written version of spoken material
We get paid $1.10 for radiology reports and my supervisor transcribes also sm
she pick all the easy doctors. How I know this is because if she doesn't finish them all she says "I have work that I couldn't finish I need someone to finish up." They are all the same doc no more than 3 lines or normals.
My sister transcribes for a nursing home with about 5 doctors.

SORRY about the typos!!!! nm

Typos
maybe you had better check your own postings for typos before you pick on someone elses..."so take YOU typos and whining to b a blog..." hmmm. easy to make a mistake, isn't it??? LOL.
Typos
I use spell check all the time, it is part of being a professional.  Except, of course, for the test, lol.  Obviously, the poster who mixed-up "their" and "there" needs to start using it or, at the least, proofread their posts.
take YOU typos?

Sorry for typos....
I have been very upset today..!!
Typos are everywhere

Yeah, the ditmo that typed the cover spelled it wrong, what is priceless, they fixed the cover of the book, but they left the webpage incorrect. 


Typos are everywhere.  You will love this one.  At the corner store where I live there is a plastic sign that has been there for years.  The sign reads, "Florida Lottory" and it has a pink flamingo on it.  It was made by the Florida Lottery Commission.


Right next to the incorrectly spelled, "Lottory,"  they have a poster plastered in the window that reads, "The Florida Lottery has provided over 10 Billion dollars towards education."


Now either that money was not put to good use . . . or someone is lying.    oh boy.

Sorry for typos. Shees! Just

Uh..."take *you* typos???LOL

Now what were you saying about "simple typos?"


sorry for typos. I usually get paid
extra for those at work  but this was JMO and I didn't QA myself 
I know there are typos. I'm not QA and I didn't

proof.   My post is a bit disjointed, but I think I got my point across.  I tried to represent both sides fairly. 


I'm tired - typos ... (sm)
I meant that the government is NOT on our side.

AAMT is not on our side, either - since they came on the scene, conditions for MTs have plummeted. A very few people there have gotten very rich off of MTs, especially newbies. And now AAMT seems to be getting involved with India. (Why am I not surprised?)
Oh, boy! Sorry for the typos...long day! nm

Please overlook typos. I am on my way
to bed and didn't proof anything. I appreciate that thanks.
Do you ever catch your typos?

Sorry about the typos in my previous message!
I am so livid with the 'suits' I can't even type straight, lol - anyone else there feel that management should only include someone who actually did the dirty deed of being an MT before the they think that they can 'manage us'?! I love the companies where the owners are previous MTs - now there is a company that is run intelligently in my opinion and the company that you would want to trust and put your efforts in.
Not the typos it's misspelling "niece" that bugs.

Yikes--and now I can't spell anymore obviously--sorry for the typos!

my PS makes typos but I wouldn't trade my PS
because my PS (production supervisor) is the most communicative and we all love this one....typos, schmypos - who cares as long as they get their point(s) across to us.  They are not MTs nor typists. 
True, but typos and minor mistakes aside... SM
I is a MT and I can post without sounding like I be uneducated.
Typos happen, and BTW, the word is grammAr (so you
