Subject: She has not stopped posting her name

She was on last night answering the one about chemo drugs.

No, you are not the only one seeing this. We seem to be the only ones talking about it.

I have noticed her quite a bit in the last few days and it just amazes me the answers she gives. I do not think she will stop, and I agree, I hope the people she is giving the info too will double check or leave it out and let their QA people handle it.

These are legal documents.

what you typed in your post is above this line - with 4 typos in 8 words - you are only 50% in quality...IF THAT.


And Carol was nice enough to type the answer to you.....not realizing you're probably testing over offshore somewhere.  This is not allowed on this board - we do not supply answers to testers. 


not the spelling police here - just annoyed that they come in here and use us for the answers.........and this one appears to be an offshore MT just by what all she/he misspelled.......some of the most basic words.

Please be aware that "rhodilla" and "ghie" are offshore posters.  I have banned their addresses (IP and e-mail).  Always watch for "clues" and "signs" -- multiple posts at a single time, etc.  Report suspicious posts.


I will try to keep watching for suspicious posts.

Helping the offshore "MTs" with these basic terms they should know sm
Subject: Helping the offshore "MTs" with these basic terms they should know sm

will only mask how bad this situation is with their appalling ineptitude. (They have their own boards anyway.) We cannot help someone who cannot or will not help her/himself. These "MTs" can spend all their hard-earned money on reference books, take courses and go to lectures the way the rest of us have and can learn this very difficult work the hard way, LIKE WE DID. Hopefully, someday, these greedy MTSOs will see the errors of their ways, and we'll have our jobs back, we'll be able to pay our bills and feed, cloth, and house our families again.

it seems that some answers are just thrown--sm
Subject: it seems that some answers are just thrown--sm

out there with no real correlation to the question asked in the first place, and also given with global *ALL* circumstances, as well as being issued with a huge arrogant attitude as in that being the ONLY answer to the question, and also the person answering the question giving the distinct impression that they are superior to every one else on the board who are trying to *help*, simply because of her employment position and her *experience*. arrogance and superiority complexes are not viewed kindly on this board and some will definitely attempt to put that person *in their place*. We have to be careful of the answers we give to some questions, because inaccurate answers can affect the patient we are transcribing about. most of the people answering questions like to supply referenced documentation of what they think the answer should be and not just sling out sound-alike answers whether it pertains to the question or not, and saying that MTs are always off base with their questions and the sound-alikes are an attempt to get them thinking in the right direction. That approach will only get *made fun of* or a severe criticism. This is simply my observation and an attempt at an explanation. Everyone on this board tries to help, but it is the attitude that help is given in, which is important. Being QA does not necessarily make someone superior to someone else and a QAs answers are not always correct.

Subject: correct answers most definitely can be found on

The correct answer(s) can ALWAYS be found online and I have tons of reference books (which become outdated as technology presses on).  The internet is putting libraries out of business and if you don't think so....just watch and wait.  Business at libraries is HEAVILY DOWN due to this.


There are very 100% reliable websites to find ALL answers and websites that Medquist wants us to use.  It's less time consuming actually for some to find the correct answers online.  You can back it up by also looking in the books.


Lighten up on the poster please.  You can say what you want to or have to say, but have you ever heard of being kind to posters or other people in life?
