This all sounds VERY strange as I work for Landmark and was never sent a FOB or a foot pedal ~ just went to work and that was it!  Is this something for some sort of special account they have?  I must say in defense of LM, I have found them a total pleasure to work for.  They use the Bayscribe platform which I downloaded myself with a link they sent me and I was off and running!  They leave me alone to do my work and all is well, so I think this must be some sort of weird and unusual misunderstanding you have had with them over this foot pedal and FOB because I was never required to purchase either one or sent either one to do my job for them.

...and did from the beginning. I kinda thought it was going to be taken poorly and I don't agree, either about the Irish or bombs on board, but I think get you.

I think you are saying that when things seem to be calming down, people that need a drama fix push a known hot button to entertain themselves. I get that; however, I don't necessarily agree with every comment since then.

My perception, for whatever it's worth, is that for that to be true (both with this board and Ireland), you would have to operate under the assumption that there was full resolution and total peace afterwards, no residual strong emotions, everyone felt heard, and no one felt silenced. I don't think that is the case in either "arena."

When people feel silenced, as I am "hearing" both parties saying, then the elephant is still in the living room and some want people tiptoeing around it like it's not there just so they don't have to deal with conflict because it makes them uncomfortable. There has been no understanding or resolution between differing opinions and there won't be as long as people make up their minds not to listen or understand. You can expect residual posts for awhile.

The fact is, if this discussion makes anyone uncomfortable (when it is entitled "company board", so like...what ELSE do you talk about?), not to be harsh, but that person's comfort level is their own problem.

If that person is uncomfortable with conflict, change the channel (and therefore your own behavior) instead of trying to change the people around you. You can try to change what they do, but it seldom works and stirs up more trouble. It's more effective to change your approach. Not that I have this down yet myself, but when I can remember to do it, it does work.

The fact is, everyone who is still here must be drawn to the drama/entertainment a bit or none of us would still be watching...jagged little pill to swallow idn't it?:)

back in 2005 when Diskriter first landed the gig.  I had to take a drug test, see my personal doctor for a physical and have him fill a very long and involved form, and get a TB test all for a facility I would never set foot in!  It took three long weeks for me to get through all the red tape and actually start the job.

The work was okay, but it ran out and you had no secondary account because you were employed by the hospital.  So if you wanted a backup account, then you had to go through more red tape to actually be an employee of Diskriter too and there was a bunch of legal mumbo jumbo that came with that because Diskriter was managing the transcription department for this hospital and the hospital had a contract that said that Diskriter could not put the hospital's employees on Diskriter accounts without express consent from the hospital. 

The supervisor of the hospital employees was employed by Diskriter and was incompetent.  We weren't able to get sample reports, normals, etc. out of her.  We always got the standard I'll look into that or It's in the works.  It seemed she had no contact with the hospital HIM department at all.  However, they could have a new person in that position now.  Like I said it was all brand spanking new back then.

Oh and your benefits were out of Florida.  So unless you're planning on flying into Florida to see a doctor or have an operation, you're basically screwed.  The bennies may have changed too by now though -- so who knows.

After three months, I just decided it was all just too much and left.  All the hoops I jumped through to get the job and then to have the job be such a disappointment was just irritating!
