Have you tried just making the whole thing an expansion?

In Reply to: Auto correct - Kristy
i.e., make an entry and call it pobid and have it expand to p.o. twice a day. Not sure if that would work in autocorrect but it worked for me in DQS, where we had the same problem. Might be worth a try. I have all those entered...poqd, potid, poqid, poq4h, poq46h, etc.

FUNNIEST THING..they all think you're making all this big money (LMAO) -nm
What is the best expansion software to use
I may be taking a position with them and need to know which program works.
For me I believe it is in the expansion program
It doesn't really matter which one, just USE IT! I don't use it just for reports or canned material, as you said, I do a lot of different accounts and docs. I do use it a TON for words that take time to type!
ie
ttpp as an ow hla wm inad.
26 Keystrokes should be 87:
The patient presents as an otherwise healthy-appearing white male in no acute distress.
See, it's in words, too, not just full sentences.
Hope that helps!
Help on converting expansion
can someone tell me how to convert my expansion file from Medquist so I can use it at MDI??? You can E mail if possible.
Thanks
S/B Yom Kippur - expansion program on!

Is the platform compatible with an expansion
I don't mean using the features in MS-Word (Auto-Text, etc.), but something like Smartype or Shorthand? When I interviewed with them a couple of years ago, I was very impressed with them, but I can't fly without an Expander and there were issues with Lotus not counting expanded text with every expander I asked to use with it. It was only for that reason that I did not accept a position with them.
BB-- any luck with that expansion file? nm

ExText does not have popup box to show expansion

She didn't ask how to steal the expansion program itself
She only wants the expansions which were entered by her and were a product of her intellect. I don't sew myself a nice little dress and then send it on to Singer just because I used their machine.

Can someone recommend a good text expansion program? Thanks!

Basic word books, spellchecker, expansion software...$450/500?? nm

Do they allow you an expansion program or Autocorrect usage? Old posts say they didn't. nm

With practice and expansion usage, you'll get there! Stop dwelling on the
s
Ok - here ya go. I went from making $1800 per pay period to making just under $900.
Is that significant enough for you? Believe us, we are not just being negative with a grudge or anything like that. This is real! A month later, I was gone from there fast!
Debate is one thing, and posting is one thing,
but this is getting absurd. I think it must be the same person, otherwise multiples who cannot stay on topic?? Why can't you STICK with the subject? The subject of my post was NOT what your cent per line rate was or is - I could care less- and not how much money you made last year, this year, or in your life, but how silly the comment was that your cents per line rate means NOTHING, that its up to you - some fluff like that. That is just so silly. Again, working for the same company, same account, is one going to make more money being paid more per line? OF course! This is so frustrating and really makes me so tired of reading this garbage let alone posting. Its like a nightmare. And also makes me completely believe that the original company must pay peanuts.
good thing it is a temporary thing sm
because people with your attitude don't stay in anything very long anyway. Nobody has to listen to that crap to keep their job.
You don't know me either. you can say old fart all you want (when did 53 get to be old fart....too funny) but at least I am a valuable employee who can get a decent job!
Well for one thing, it would not be a professional thing
to do for any MTSO to have a board to do this as part of being an MTSO involves the ability to identify and hold on to confidential information. Even if a person is a job hopper (which in this business rather than go against you can make you a stronger better MT if you can do just about anything thrown at you), if a person is looking for a job, a company needs to have the MT's permission to contact their current employer. Where one has worked or has not worked is something that is very unprofessional being discussed on a board by MTSOs.
Being a business owner of any kind comes with it possessing what it takes to maintain ethical practices.
they are making a lot of changes....
This is the first I heard of it also and I found out by logging on and all the sudden have all new work types. When I inquired as to why this happened and was told it was part of the "MQ compliance team" (whatever!). Later on that morning, I received an email stating that the first change made was to rank the MTs by classification: Level 1 - ER/clinic notes, Level 2 - ER, Clinic, Progress notes, H&Ps, DS, Consults, Cardiac notes, PT notes (everything except radiologys and OPs), Level 3 -everything including radiology and OPs.
how much are you making, cpl
what are you making, cpl. ect.
It is b/c OSi is making changes
Positive changes...and that scares the daylights out of everyone else. Yes, they have made a few mistakes, but who hasn't? I am with you here. I never had a single problem with OSi until I came to this board and then I found out just how sucky my job really is. So, why wasn't my job bad before? It is a pitty that I had to come here to find out that OSi employs only the worst. I make a lot of money and I don't leave my home. I have a wonderful AC too and I love the people that I have actually gotten to talk to on a day-to-day basis. What more could I ask for?
I'm currently making more than that, but have been
looking around, testing the waters. I ace the tests, they call 2 and 3 times offering me different things, but never enough money. I have even been offered 7 cpl as an IC. My point was that experience doesn't necessarily count for anything these days as no one wants to pay you for it.
Where are you making $120 a day, can I ask?
That's pretty good.
I will be making 9.5 cpl
They offered me 9.5 cpl right off when I was hired last week for an ER account.
making fun?
saying - Having a laugh - is not making fun - it is a comment - not like are they kidding, could not get a coffee for that etc. They do not belong here.
but I am sure if you are concerned the moderator can give you the information so you can apply.
I was making ...
17.00 a hour.
She's making more
than I am right now at my company and I have 15 years of experience and she has about 8 or 9. From what I have heard, it's at the top of the pay scale for most companies out there and you get paid half of your typing rate for editing which is a lot more than I make editing. All I can say is 15 years in this business, they pay very well and that is why I'm applying for a job with them.
Are you saying you re making 0.075 MORE than before, or
they are giving you that which is more than you made before? 0.075 more a line is hard to believe.
I was making 16/hr when i was QA

The ones who are making $125,000
aren't the ones I have a beef with, it's the ones with millions in income and they pay less taxes than someone making $40,000 to $50,000. $125,000 doesn't give anyone enough money to take advantage of the tax hedges and loop holes that go only to the wealthy, especially if they are mortgaged to the hilt.
Please....you'd be making those
wages no matter what. Find a profession that will pay you more and quit blaming those of us who do our job every day without complaint. You all seem to have excuses why you aren't making money. Find another job where you can sit there and work in your bathrobe, chat on the phone whenever, peruse the internet, throw some laundry in when you want, not have to pay for work clothes or gas, not have to deal with lousy weather or traffic and can be home with your children. And yet you still want to make the big bucks and get all the perks. Why not find something else that will pay you what you think you deserve? Yeah, my DH has a good job and pays the bills....sorry if that offends you. I do this job because I love it, not to become rich from it. Be thankful that you have a job during these lean economic times. Don't blame me because you have no ambition, drive, incentive or guts to do something else with your life.
Are you making more than 5 cpl? (nm)
nm
You were only making up to 2 cpl??
My VR pay is 4 cents a line and 8 cents for straight. I do not use Dictaphone there, there are other systems besides just that. I have no drama, monitoring software? Know nothing about that. I love it personally.
She said that making up 2 cpl could be
time consuming. She didn't say she was making up to 2 cpl. lol
I'm not that bad yet but I was making
more than my daughter-in-law who is a nurses' aide and works at the county hospital, but now she's making more than I am, and her health insurance is only $100 a month for a family plus she gets a raise every year.
Then they are not making much of
I make 10 cpl, and if my company is charging 16 or even 18 cpl I don't see how they could stay in business. The bonus structure benefits them because the more productive MTs are, the fewer people they have overhead for, but still...
Are you making more/less/same now as
you were 7 years ago at MQ? My pay has decreased due to the changes.
I think they are GREAT! Making better $$ now than ever!
nm
Have you been making less than $16/hr for 11 years?
I hope not. If so, poor you after 11 years! If not, you better get ready for the pay cut.
HOW MUCH DID YOU MAKE AND HOW MUCH ARE YOU MAKING NOW?
I am thinking about making the switch!
It's my job. Dah! someone making a type? Did you mean
typo? Maybe you should proof your work. You are an embarrASSment to the community!
Oh, and when I said proof, I didn't mean 100 proof!
They're making themselves look bad.
I clicked on jen has a big nose and there's an ad there for OSI.
Anybody having trouble making
Amphion? I have been with them 3 months and still have not hit my 1200 line goal. Would like to know if anyone else has had this experience.
making money
I meant to say that I'm frustrated not making money where I am working, and wondering if it is possible to make money at Breitner?
Why are you not making money?
Is there no work?
making money
I'm not working for Breitner at this time. I'm working for T. I have work. I simply hate everything about this company.
I've read the posts about not getting paid at Breitner, but has this happened recently?
Is there a good paying job with good benefits anywhere?
Thanks for the answers.
I'm sorry, desertbloom, I'm not making fun of
visual in my head of two kids wanting the same ice cream cone, going, that's mine, no that's MINE, no gimme that, no go get your own!
Actually that visual helped me relax from a stressed morning so thank you :)
Well the point I was making
is that the industry is changing so rapidly (positives and negatives) that the corporate mentality is prevailing with regard to job enlargement at same rate of pay. Obviously we all have a choice of where to draw the line...
Well I'm currently making 10 to 12 cpl as employee
so I have benefits as well, vacation, PTO, and 401K with partial matching. WebMedx is hiring. I think that is the rate they offer all ICs. They are constantly hiring but there are frequent posts about no work - don't understand it.
I am tired of making some big fat
man, rich over my transcription efforts. I want to work for a smaller company owned by a transcriptionist, where I can get medical benefits. Any copanies out there???
