Where can we shop for supplies that aren't imported? sm
I really don't mind paying a little more, have always supported our local merchants, but just can't find everything my son needs for school, etc., locally except at Wal-Mart. I don't buy his clothing or shoes there. What major retailers sell USA products? TIA.
Can anyone tell me if MDI (out of Maryland-IC status)supplies computer?
On their ad they don't state anything about the computer specifics. Do you rent it? Thanks for any info. I am assuming as an IC you would use your own computer but it is odd that there is no info about what you need???
Who supplies a computer and hires PT. (besides Spheris & Amphion) Thank you. nm

Webmedx supplies computer. You pay a deposit out a few paychecks. Not much.
Don't remember exact amount. You're supposed to get it back when you quit. Good luck. You have to be full-time (40 hr/week).
Axolotl computer comes with SpeedType Expander which is the same as Shorthand
Don't know where you got your information about not being able to use Exanders with Lotus, but I just started with Axolotl and the computer I got was already equipped with SpeedType (another name for Shorthand, which means you will be able to transfer most other Expanders directly into it). Also, I did some random character counts on reports where I used expanders a lot and ones where I had to mostly hand type, and the lines counts were right on. You get credit for the lines whether you type it or use the expander. Also, a lot of companies ask for computer rental -- Webmedx $250, Amphion $25 per month for 2 years, and I would much rather have their computer that I can send back if it crashes (and they will get another one to me in 24 hours) rather than have to run out and buy myself a new one in order to be able to work again.
If their ad is gone, they probably got swamped with resumes & aren't hiring. nm

Anybody know of companies hiring that aren't advertising? nm
They aren't hiring and this was mentioned over several days a few
months ago.
Axolotl employees....Is the computer keyboard they supply ergonomic or standard?
I am scheduled to start in about a month and am trying to prepare. Thanks!
Axolotl hiring....
I checked their website earlier just out of curiosity and it does say they are hiring..
Is Axolotl hiring??
xx
Is Axolotl done hiring?
I tested on Wednesday, but haven't heard anything back. Do they get back to you regardless or only for a second interview? Thanks!
Does anyone know if Axolotl is hiring?
They sound like a great company.
Axolotl currently only hiring
NM
Is it hard to get on with Axolotl? Are they hiring?
nm
If you do acute care, Axolotl is hiring
They offer good insurance at a decent price.
Axolotl is a wonderful company but not sure if hiring. SM
You are welcome to email me if you want. Good luck 
Is Axolotl hiring? Can you give me the pos and neg of this co? Email if you want. Thanks

Do you think all the headers and footers aren't getting counted? Lots of places aren't giving

Diskriter, I believe supplies PC. nm

Spheris allows and supplies but does not require SH (sm)
The platforms have their built in expansion programs; however, if you like you can be issued Shorthand
Its common when a company supplies
The two I've worked for that supplied computers monitor usage and especially monitor if you're using it for any non-work related surfing. They also reserve the right to come on remotely and check your system for any problems, security violations, unauthorized hardware/software additions, etc. It is their property so I guess they have the right to say how and when it gets used.
Reference book, office supplies, equipment. nm
Talk to a tax guy. There are plenty of tax breaks, supplies, mortgage, electric,
;P
I wanted to use my own computer and get rid of the RENT on TT computer, but Vista is not compatible.
Good way to make them money. Not have to upgrade software so that Vista is compatible with Vista. Huh?
One more computer question. I got my computer today and
trying to set it up. Man unpacking the box and setting everything up is a major undertaking; more so for me because I used a laptop before and my desk isn't tower friendly. Anyway, no info came with the tower and I don't yet have the password to get in (paperwork says to call M-F). Is the tower WiFi compatible? My DSL is hooked to a different computer and I wanted to know if I can setup new computer as WiFi or if I need to move modem to new computer and set other computer up as WiFi.
Maybe MQ is over hiring now in preparation for something. Must be some reason they keep hiring when
some people have not work.
You aren't the only one, believe me. NM

Aren't they the ones who are
supposedly looking into buying Heartland?
aren't they all going to be
under regional supervisors within a year??? If you can get yourself under the northeast regional supervisor, do it. She's great.
Oh MY aren't you a gas
Why would you care. Bitter? I got a great job by not being hired by them with innumerable benefits and assigned to a nice a/c with great potential.
Don't get my way - do you mean expecting to be paid on time is being bitter and spoiled? What planet do you come from? LOL
And yes SD is said - it's not my fault they auto cap it - boy do you have issues!!!! sd is standard shorthand for said my friend. can't imagine even noticing something like that.
Uh, no. They aren't doing that
The letter I received a few months ago when I cancelled my membership said something quite different. It had nothing to do with keeping the jobs US based. It was all about quality healthcare documentation which is important; don't get me wrong there. However, there was NOTHING in there stating anything about keeping this work here at all. Instead it was all about the global marketplace and a cop-out.
I personally feel that the bulk of the healthcare industry knows cheaper doesn't necessarily mean better or even close to what is expected. I don't think all of the jobs are going to disappear.
I have written, called and probably annoyed my senator and any other government official in my state about outsourcing private healthcare information. India, for example, does not have stringent laws about private information like we do.
We do have a personal responsibility though. I have brought this up on other boards, but we need to ask our healthcare providers if their back office is handled here. If not, choose another provider if possible. Of course avoiding purchase of everything that comes from somewhere else is virtually impossible, but there are lots of other things. This may also sound mean, but if I get on the phone with customer service somewhere and realize the person I am speaking with is offshore, I have my call transferred. Nothing against the person, but I am not discussing my personal account information with someone who is not 100% required by law to protect that information. Period. If enough people take the intiative (not saying in this particular way), the gov't and other organizations won't have a choice but to listen.
Outsourcing globally is not the trend right now. I really think pulling together can stop it from becoming so.
Aren't they like about $40,000 ???
My car's OLD - only kind I can afford.
And just because you aren't a fan sm
doesn't mean it is a bad company for everyone.
Aren't we all?

Now I know you aren't exp'd - there is SM
no earthy reason to BUY A PDR to look up drugs. Caught again.
They aren't even in the US - ya think?? *-D) nm

You REALLY ARE NEW aren't you?
Snort... How naive.
Look, the really sad thing is that work has really picked up at TT and if whomever the fool is that decided to file this lawsuit had just waited a bit, things on MT Stars would have died down. Have you seen any negative postings about TT recently? No, because there is WORK!!
If you let your anger rule your head, you will show yourself for the fool that you are.
Sad, truly sad....
Obviously, you aren't one of them...
If you had the slightest legal knowledge, you would know that any person can file a lawsuit against anyone -- the claims don't have to be true. Again, enjoy your Law 101 class.
If you aren't happy
why don't you leave? You seem to know so much, so you must work for OSi. You musn't be able to get another job elsewhere.
If you aren't using an expander just think how
many more lines you could produce with an Expander and then that would be like gettin a raise.
Why don't you just go back to MQ, they aren't that bad
I was full-time with them and quit for reasons not related to all the new changes, but after thinking it over, I decided to keep some part-time hours because I enjoy the work.

A little snippy aren't we?
nm
No they aren't. They are looking for editors
Is there a little emoticon for putting a finger down one's throat and retching?
Maybe we aren't talking
not sure what kind of rate could result in $4.25/1000 words...but I'm doing much better than that...so far.
I have worked for TRS and while they aren't the
worst company out there, I certainly would never recommend them. Any time people can't figure out how much their making, it isn't an ideal situation. The Trinidad issue and how it was handled is another strike against them.
They aren't outsourcing. nm

Wow, aren't we cynical!
I am working for TT because a couple of TT employees took the time to answer my questions about the company and it sounded like it might be the place for me. I am very glad they were so helpful, because now I work there and I'm very happy. I haven't found any drawbacks to working there. If the companies you have chosen to work for have not turned out well, I'm sorry, but don't assume they are all the same. It is absolutely not fair to try to run down a company's name when you admit you never worked there. I do work there, and the company hasn't asked me to advertise for them. I can't believe you would judge people who go out of their way to try to help other MTs find a good company.
You aren't getting paid? nm

You aren't missing much with sm
Transhealth. Chartmatrix stinks, doesn't integrate well with Word at all (cannot use autocorrect), crashes alot, and hard dictators. Their test dictators are actual doctors on their system. Management and office staff turn over quite frequently. Transolutions last I knew started out at 6 cents a line. You may want to go IC if you don't need the benefits.
