Subject: Hospital experience as what? a doctor? a nurse? Or are you speaking of hospital experience as an

experience is, it lacks credibility especiall when you base it on YOUR experience.  Who are you?  How much experience do you actually have?  What kind of experience do you have?  How many diabetic patients have you encountered in your years of experience?


You can't expect to make a sweeping generalization like "all diabetics have hypertension" and not get called out on it.  Come on!  Know your place.  Arrogance is an unattactive personality trait.

hospital experience tells me otherwise
Subject: hospital experience tells me otherwise

I'm diabetic, have been in the hospital and I don't have high high blood pressure. In fact, I have low blood pressure. You need to stop spouting off things like you are all knowing. Sheesh, what a goomba*!!

*Forget all the rest of the meanings of goomba, this is what a goomba really is: a goon, a goof, a kook, or poser who doesn't physically resemble a goomba from Mario Bros. but acts just like one. You know a true goomba when you see one.

My experience
Subject: My experience

I work for a hospital doing transcription and when they switched us from hourly pay to productivity pay, I went from making a little over $14/hour to over $20 an hour!  It's funny, we all thought it was going to be a bad thing to switch and our bosses kept saying we think you all will be happy, wait and see.  They were right!  I do have medical/dental insurance thru them also, it was never based on my productivity whether or not I have insurance or not.

I will put a blank or a timestamp for QA.  You really should never guess especially when the audio is broken up like that.  My advice would be send to QA or leave a blank with a comment that the dictation skipped.

of S&W, Santa Fe, where they had their residents. Typed opth, ortho surgery/urology/ general surgery, ENT and a little derm. AND several doctors at S&W  left and started their own GYN practice. S&W didn't let them operate there, so they came to our railroad hospital, full of men of course, and used our services for op notes, orders. Well, I had had little GYN but I got a crash course!!! What a ride those days were!! Of course, I was younger then and unafraid. Picture 3 dictaphone machines (belt type) going 8 hours a day and people calling in orders and op notes!!!  I used to take dictation direct in radiology also!!  Nothing scares me much after that!!!
