    with all due respect, who cares what you think and who died and left you boss of anything?
    Good gawd. Address the ISSUE or shut up. Read the post and ADDRESS THE ISSUE.
    who died and left her boss and expert on nut-case MTs or freakish behavior?
    sounds like one of the MQ supervisors all filled with herself.
    It's to your left on this board. :) nm

    ER died when Mark Green died. The 'new'
    the same oomph as the originals.  Not as exciting as it used to be.  I had watched since the very first episode and loved every episode until then.  Now it's BORING!
    go to the job seekers board on the left
    hand side of this page.  Editing would be considered a position in the "QA" field.  There are lots of these positions open. 
    Yes, but go to the Job Seekers board at the top left of your screen.

    Yes, click on the New MT/Student board over on your left (sm)
    on the first page there are a couple of threads about schools you might read through and if you still have questions, post over on that board and you will probably get a better response.
    Please see the Billers & Coders board on the left.
    There are many who may be able to help you there!

    MedQuist board is now set up. See Medquist link to the left.
    Link is also below.
    Just hit Alt+Shift+left arrow on line 1 and it will go to the left margin. Otherwise,
    you need to use a numbered list style to do it every time. Each version is different, but you may already have a numbered list style in yours that stays at the left margin. Just assign a keyboard shortcut to that style.
    Who died?
    and left you boss? 
    I used to have one of those (died on me too).

    If you really like the mechanical keyswitch feel (which I sure do) and don't need a split/ergo keyboard, then you might want to think about trying one of the old Model M IBM keyboards ... very similar in feel (actually, better, IMO) to the NMB.  I, unfortunately, have to use a totally split keyboard now, otherwise I'd be using a Model M myself.


    You can sometimes find vintage ones cheap in local little computer stores too (I got one for $5 once that way).

    He died because of his fame. Not enough for you? SM
    Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. They do different things that make them heroes to different people. What you really meant to say was that John Lennon was not a hero to you, right?
    died today at age 83...........nm

    he died almost a year ago (sm)
    He had hypertension, diabetes, and had had a stroke in 2003. He was only 54.
    No, it's not bad. I cried more when my cat died than when

    I'm a wimp. I got another dog, just like the one that died, 2 weeks later.
    I missed her so much that after we came back from vacation, I got another just like her. Same coloring, same breed. Only this time I got a male instead of a female and he has green eyes, not black. I can't believe how much alike they are.
    I had similar experiences after my mom died (sm)
    On my mother's birthday, after she died, the smoke alarms went off in my house. They were not in need of new batteries, nor was there even a hint of smoke in the house.

    They continued to go off at different occasions, each of which was a "special day," either a birthday or a holiday that she enjoyed.

    My mom was in marching band when she was in HS and pretty much made me follow in her footsteps. It was okay, but not a decision I would have chosen. My daughter inadvertantly, through a scheduling glitch ended up in marching band her first year of high school. She ended up loving it. At sleep-away band camp the following year, in the chaparone's quarters (where I was sleeping), the smoke alarm went off during the night. It was kind of funny though, because it went off in another chaparone's room and I didn't even hear it. The other chaparone told me about it the next day and what she went through to get it to stop (basically had to beat if off the wall). When she told me, I just smiled and said, "Oh, that was my mom, she just got the wrong room."

    I always thought how proud mom would have been that my daughter ended up in band and even ended up being the drum major her senior year and what a difference it made in her life.

    That was the last I've heard of mom.

    I'm a strong believer in God, but somehow I think it's possible that those close to us have "ways" of letting us know they're still loving us, even though they have a strange way of showing it! Kind of like when they were alive LOL! ;-)


    let's see... christopher died at 52, keanu is almost 41
    .
    My pet turkey, Bubba, died of
    natural causes two weeks ago.  He was about 50 pounds.  His wife, though, Bubette, is still healthy and well.  I guess she is a turkey widow now. 
    Who died? And didn't get punished?
    ;D
    Lou Rawls died 2day...
    I thot he had an awesome voice. Great talent!
    It was a very sad day when she died. It makes no sense at all.

    mine finally died

    it took about a week.


    It was in the same room that I sleep in. I discovered if I left the light on it stayed quiet most of the time through the night.  I sure could not find it, and I don't think mine escaped.  :(    cc


    ER died with Mark Green - Not the

    him, Carol and Doug.  One thing that got to me though, why didn't Carol and Doug show up for his funeral????  The newer episodes just don't have the same uumph - I stick to the reruns on TNT. 


    ditto......and clarabelle just died!!...nm

    robert kardashian died ? When?

    No, she only eats chicken... that died from old age... LOL

    Hypocrite?!


    I remarried after the other husband died
    and I have moved to another town about 30 miles away and I do not use the same hospital anymore. In fact, lucky me, I have a medical center right behind me here, all my physicians here in this community, it is so less a stress and strain on me. I am loving it. That hospital P. in Atlanta is a thing of the past.
    Mine did this, motherboard died
    I had a few do this, and the motherboard had died. I had just purchased them.
    We had a weird happening after my father died...
    He died in August and when we went to visit his grave just before Christmas, the grass was still growing back over the plot.  The grass had grown in the shape of a Christmas tree inside the rectangular plot of dirt over the grave.  We got some bulbs and decorations and laid them in the grass and took pictures.  Guess what, the pictures didn't turn out.  "dodo do do" (twilight zone tune)
    Pretty wild, I have not had really anything happen since my mom died 09/26/04 except how Jen became
    diagnosed with her Wilms tumor.  The day prior to it she'd had her normal checkup and the doctor totally missed the tumor (hard to since it was huge, 15 x 11 x 5 cm...was not protruding though unless she was flat on her back and naked and then only a tiny bit), but felt if you palpated the abdomen. (Dr. cut my daughter's ear while trying to clean wax but failed to mention it to her what he was trying to do, messed up the rest of the exam since she was crying and freaked out from it)  The very next day after her check up though, she fell off the kiddie see-saw (18" fall).....my husband likes to think my mom pushed her off, which subsquently caused a blood vessel on the tumor to burst, which made her pee blood, which got me to get her to the doctor's, who proto found her tumor.  Had she not been diagnosed then, in the next week or so the tumor would have probably burst or spread or somehow not have been encapsulated anymore and things would have been a lot worse. So my mom helped her get treatment a lot earlier than she otherwise would have probably.  I thinks it's nice to think about it this way.
    My favorite teacher died yesterday...
    He was my choir director in high school - such a lovely, special and talented man. He really made a difference in my life 30 years ago. Sad day 4 me.
    I agree..my mother was a teacher and when she died..sm
    So many people told me what an impact she had on their lives. It was nice to hear it.
    Had to QA a report on a baby today, died after a
    horrible birth and hospital stay for months. One drug was missing and I just could NOT find it. I am good at that, and felt so bad that this little girl had a big blank in the middle of her report. It was such a long horrible story, including all the agonizing decisions the parents had to make. I just did NOT want a blank in there. So weird, but I went to double check another drug that started with a totally different letter, and when I clicked on that letter, another letter popped up with the exact drug I had been looking for prior. Long story, but too weird, and I knew someone else was helping me out with that blank. I felt so at peace that the little kid had a complete death summary. The patients deserve nothing less, right?
    the thread had died. you're the one keeping it going.
    ever look at the dates on these things? let it go. sheesh.
    Her mother died??? I don't remember hearing about this.

    A 20 y/o who suddenly just died of a heart attack? Seems odd.

    Jay Vance tried that approach and it died. You have to charge
    reasonable membership dues for people to see the seriousness of the action.  Jay Vance charged something like a dollar or something like that and no one took him seriously.  Of course, that was the old days, now he's an AAMT suckup.
    one of mine is tiny - nearly died from renal
    failure last year - and in the process of trying to get weight on him and leaving food down his brother is up to a whopping 17 pounds now - he would give me lower extremity circulation problems!!
    Oh, heck, YES!!!

    It's always feast or famine around here.  One week, I'll be sitting on my thumbs stressing about bills and not enough work.  The next week, everyone dumps so much on me that I'm working double shifts.  Why can't it be regular instead of sporadic?  Then again, I do rather like those unexpected days off and not being chained to a desk during certain hours like with the nationals.  I work when I want to as long as I meet TAT.


    Do you really want to work 10-12 hours a day?  And you know that some days it will be 6 hours and some days 18 hours because it is truly feast or famine.  I took on a third IC job recently because things were so slow for weeks with my other two.  The other two must have heard me accept the third job because I got dumped on.  I wound up wigging out and quitting the third position.  I feel really bad about leaving her in the lurch, but holy cow! A human body can only take so much of this.


    I don't see the little sleep deprived icon with cramped up fingers and pedal foot.  Owie.  I'm just not going to gripe about not getting much sleep or time off.  Work is good.  Being unemployed is bad.


    Do the local docs pay more than the national?  And their workload is a lot easier, too.  You get the same dictators every day saying the same things over and over again so you can use your word expander to the max.  Make a list of pros and cons and see which is better.


    How the heck did you get that?
    Interpretation of my post: I like ESLs not for any other reason other than I LIKE ESLs. Whatever impact that has on those who can't or won't do them is not MY problem.

    Oh so thankful to have a job? Sounds to me like you are the one who should be thankful to have a job considering you have a hang-up about doing a majority of what our job description is.
    What the heck is CMT?
    x
    No way in heck!
    Everytime I scroll through the channels and I even see that show for 1 second, I feel like getting a hammer and hitting the wall with it repeatedly. Those women are gross!
    What the heck are you looking for?

    Most women I know that think men are scum continue to end up with the same type.


    It's usually a self-esteem issue on the woman's part which harbors lack of trust and very high expectations concerning the opposite sex.


    You need to lower your expectations and give to others as much as you would expect to be given to you.


    Only then will you realize that not "all" men are scum, just possibly the ones that you choose to hook up with.


    Heck no!

    I mean, like really, why in the world should you let your clients know that you're going to be out of town for a couple of weeks??!!


    Why, let em' wonder where you are and why their work's not being done.  I can't think of a better way to do business, get lots of referrals, and build a solid bond of trust!


      


     


    Heck no, 41's not too old
    Honey, 41 is NOT OLD...OK! Go for it...you'll do GREAT!!! Best of luck to ya...and I envy you...I wanna do that too, so bad.  I might...when I get 41!!!
    Me too, then got the heck out of there. (sm)

    I thougth for sure I was going to have my computer light up, start erasing data, or something. 


    What in the heck is EHR and what does this mean
    to us as transcriptionists? I have worked in VR and know about this but am told here lately still a demand for MTs as healthcare is steadily moving towards EHR. Where exactly does this leave MTs - out of a job or like VR, some sort of editing? TIA
    Why the heck don’t you all just
    quit, do something different, anything? I have so many years in this and enjoy my work. If you don’t like the salary/work, etc. you can always do something else, can't you?? This job paid for homes, vehicles, travel, raising kids, the bills- if you don’t make enough money and just want to stay at home, how about a second or third transcription job to go along with the one you have already. Quityourbellyaching.
    I say, to heck with that!
    There is no way I would work for a company that does that. You should not, either. Work for a company that respects its MTs. There are such around. Look at the company board for ideas. Plese do not accept this!!
