Your experience may be more limited than the other posters

Posted By: in my experience - sm on 2006-06-21
In Reply to: TransHealth has dozens of accounts. How can...sm - In the Know

The other posters were on the money. If you have worked on at least half of the accounts, you would see that most of them are primarily ESL, there is one where native English is the exception and rare, 2 that ESL exclusive.

There have been occasions where work was lean for everyone and those not meeting line counts were sent certified letters to make their line counts or there would be consequences...how can you make line count if the work is not there and then be punished for not making line counts?

Search this site for some time in June or May and there is more about TH.

Limited experience here
but when I was paid by the minute it was $1.50 per and that was several years ago for Radiology... it was very fair. There was only one doctor who dictated a mile a minute and was difficult to understand as well. You can gauge your earnings by asking about the dictators style, etc., and volume. Hope this helps - $1.50 may be on the high side ??
I have limited op note experience...sm
and I fake it....I can do the work, just takes me a little more time looking things up, and i also HATE OP notes, but If i need a job all i see are acute care.....then I fake it...
Acute care experience is limited...

BUT I want to apply for a position in acute care.  I have experience in everything except for operative reports and I am wondering if I should lie and tell the company I have this experience just to secure the position.  I know I can do it because I am resourceful, but is it worth it?  Should I be upfront about my experience or just wing it?  Is acute care really that much harder than clinic?  I pretty much aced the acute care exam, but wondering if my lack of experience will hurt me in the end.  Hm...


Thanks for any advice you may have!

Transcritions Limited
If this is the way it's spelled, it is now Medquist. I started working for them when they had the old name.
Limited Info

I currently work for Precyse.  I'm sorry that I cannot help with insurance because I do not puchase their health care, but do have disability through them and great dental. 


Financially, no complaints here.  Always meet my bonus, always have work (working nights) and checks are always accurate.  Just got a raise---now there is a switch, never happened at any other national without pulling teeth.  As always, I can only speak for myself.  


I have absolutely no plan to go anywhere else.  Been with the company 3+ years (they are only 6 years old).   


Limited to 8 hours a day (sm)

Does anyone know how strict these companies are that only allow you to work 8 hours a day?   - Why do some companies allow you to work as much as you want?  Don't get it.


That was keep emails LIMITED.

only limited comment
I applied to USAMedical. I have over 15 years of experience and they were only offering 7 cpl with that! Have no idea of whether or not they are a good company to work for though.
No matter what co., If you are limited SM
in the kind of work you can or will work on, you're going to run out.  Simple as that.  You have to be able to do all kinds of work, all kinds of dictators.  If you don't value yourself enough to make yourself valuable to a company, then you will be running out of work no matter what company you work for.
Unfortunately, your days are probably limited..

That was my experience. At first, things were business as usual, but then all of a sudden we were told that we had new managers who would be calling to get acquainted. By acquainted they meant telling us how things were now going to be run. By this time, all of the easier dictations had disappeared anyway (like the others explained, we had trained in our replacements). So at this point, you can either accept their way of doing business or leave.


What really upsets me the most is that we as transcriptionists have let these 'businessmen' steal our profession from us. They got into this business because they saw there was a profilt to be made. We are just a 'unit' to them. Now that hospitals and clinics are forcing them to lower their line rates, they have to start charging 10 to 11 cents per line instead of 13 to 14 cents a line. Where do you think they're going to make cuts? That's right, with us.


We should really start undercutting these big companies (I could live very well on 8 cents a line for a while--long enough to stick it to the big sweatshop companies). Wouldn't that be sweet to run them out of business and take our profession back?


But I digress. In answer to your question, I don't know what they are going to do in your situation. With 350 employees, it probably will take a litlte longer for them to organize, but their goal is to offshore everything they can, so if I were you, I would start looking now.  Good luck to you.


They said that the IC positions are limited
and they would need to know the reasons why we want IC.  It sounds to me that the decision regarding IC status would be theirs, not ours.
Just so you know - the subject is a limited field. SM
If you hit Post Quick Reply, put a little bit of text in the subject, SM for see message, and then put the rest in the box below.

Just trying to be helpful!
Could you do all work types, or were you limited?nm
nm
are you limited on what type of reports to do?
That could make a difference. I never run out of work, but I do all work types.


Limited Liability Company

LLC - Limited Liability Company
Limited Liability Company

A noncorporate business whose owners actively participate in the organization's management and are protected against personalliability for the organization's debts and obligations.

The limited liability company (LLC) is a hybrid legal entity that has characteristics of a corporation and a partnership. An LLC provides its owners with corporate-like protection against personal liability. It is, however, usually treated as a noncorporate business organization for tax purposes.

History

The LLC is a relatively new business form in the United States, although it has existed in other countries for some time. In 1977 Wyoming became the first state to enact LLC legislation: it wanted to attract capital and created the statute specifically for a Texas oil company (W.S. 1977 § 17-15-101 et seq., Laws 1977, ch. 158 § 1). Florida followed with its own LLC statute in 1982 (West's F.S.A. § 608.401, Laws 1982, c. 82-177 § 2). At this point states had little incentive to form an LLC because it remained unclear whether the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) would treat an LLC as a partnership or as a corporation for tax purposes. In 1988 the IRS issued a ruling that an LLC in Wyoming would be treated as a partnership for tax purposes. This allowed the taxable profits and losses of an LLC to flow through to the LLC's individual owners; unlike a typical corporation, an LLC would not be taxed as a separate business organization. After the 1988 IRS ruling, nearly every state in the United States enacted an LLC statute, and the LLC is now a widely recognized business form. Many legal issues concerning the LLC are still developing.

Formation

State law governs the creation of an LLC. Persons form an LLC by filing required documents with the appropriate state authority, usually the secretary of state. Most states require the filing of articles of organization. These are considered public documents and are similar to articles of incorporation, which establish a corporation as a legal entity. The LLC usually comes into existence on the same day the articles of organization are filed and a filing fee is paid to the secretary of state.

The minimum information required for the articles of organization varies from state to state. Generally, it includes the name of the LLC, the name of the person organizing the LLC, the duration of the LLC, and the name of the LLC's registered agent. Some states require additional information, such as the LLC's business purpose and details about the LLC's membership and management structure. In all states an LLC's name must include words or phrases that identify it as a limited liability company. These may be the specific words Limited Liability Company or one of various abbreviations of those words, such as LLC or Ltd. Liability Co.

Structure

The owners of an LLC are called members and are similar in some respects to shareholders of a corporation. A member can be a natural person, a corporation, a partnership, or another legal association or entity. Unlike corporations, which may be formed by only one shareholder, LLCs in most states must be formed and managed by two or more members. LLCs are therefore unavailable to sole proprietors. In addition, unlike some closely held, or S, corporations, which are allowed a limited number of shareholders, LLCs may have any number of members beyond one.

Generally, state law outlines the required governing structure of an LLC. In most states members may manage an LLC directly or delegate management responsibility to one or more managers. Managers of an LLC are usually elected or appointed by the members. Some LLCs may have one, two, or more managers. Like a general partner in a limited partnership or an officer in a corporation, an LLC's manager is responsible for the day-to-day management of the business.

A manager owes a duty of loyalty and care to the LLC. Unless the members consent, a manager may not use LLC property for personal benefit and may not compete with the LLC's business. In addition, a manager may not engage in self-dealing or usurp an LLC's business opportunities, unless the members consent to a transaction involving such activity after being fully informed of the manager's interest.

Operating Agreement

Nearly every LLC maintains a separate written or oral operating agreement, which is generally defined as the agreement between the members that governs the affairs of the LLC. Some states call an operating agreement regulations or a member control agreement. Although some states do not require an operating agreement, nearly all LLCs create and maintain a written document that details their management structure.

The operating agreement typically provides the procedures for admitting new members, outlines the status of the LLC upon a member's withdrawal, and outlines the procedures for dissolution of the LLC. Unless state law restricts the contents of an operating agreement, members of an LLC are free to structure the agreement as they see fit. An LLC can usually amend or repeal provisions of its operating agreement by a vote of its members.

Membership Interests

A member of an LLC possesses a membership interest, which usually includes only an economic interest. A membership interest is considered personal property and may be freely transferred to nonmembers or to other members. The membership interest usually does not include any right to participate in the management of the LLC. Accordingly, if a member assigns or sells a membership interest to another person, that other person typically receives only the right to the assigning member's share of profits in the LLC. Persons who receive a membership interest are not able to participate as voting members or managers unless they are admitted as new members.

State law and an LLC's operating agreement or articles of organization provide the circumstances under which a person may be admitted as a new member. These circumstances vary. Usually the admission of a new member requires the consent of existing members, and in most cases the consent must be unanimous. In some cases the articles of organization do not allow for admission of new members. In others the recipient of a membership interest may be automatically admitted as a new member.

Member Contributions

Members of an LLC contribute capital to the LLC in exchange for a membership interest. There is no minimum amount of capital contribution, and members usually can contribute cash, property, or services. By default, the total amount of a member's capital contribution to an LLC determines the member's voting and financial rights in the LLC. In other words, unless an LLC's operating agreement provides for a different arrangement, the profits and losses of the LLC are shared proportionally in relation to the members' contributions to the LLC. For example, if a member's capital contributions constitute 40 percent of an LLC's capital, that member typically has a 40 percent stake in the LLC and has more voting power than a member with a 20 percent interest.

A member may promise a future contribution to an LLC in exchange for a membership interest. If the member later fails to make the contribution, the LLC generally may enforce the promise as a contract or sell the member's existing interest to remedy the failure.

Distributions of profits or assets to members are usually governed by an LLC's operating agreement. Most state LLC laws do not require distributions to members other than when a member withdraws or terminates membership. Members vote to determine all aspects of distributions to members, including amount and timing. Because a member's share of any distribution or loss depends on the member's share of all capital contributions to an LLC, the LLC maintains records of each member's capital contribution.

Liability

State LLC statutes specifically provide that members of an LLC are not personally liable for the LLC's debts and obligations. This limited liability is similar to the liability protection for corporate shareholders, partners in a limited partnership, and partners in a limited liability partnership. Under certain circumstances, however, a member may become personally liable for an LLC's debts.

An individual member is generally personally liable for her own torts and for any contractual obligations entered into on behalf of the member and not on behalf of an LLC. In addition, a member is personally liable to a third person if the member personally guarantees a debt or obligation to the third person. A person who incurs debts and obligations on behalf of the LLC prior to the LLC's formation is jointly and severally liable with the LLC for those debts and obligations.

Members may also become personally liable for an LLC's debts or obligations under the piercing-the-corporate-veil theory. This doctrine imposes personal liability upon corporate shareholders and applies primarily if a corporation is undercapitalized, fails to follow corporate formalities, or engages in fraud. Although the law of LLCs is still developing, piercing the corporate veil is likely applicable to an LLC that fails to follow the legal formalities required to manage the LLC. LLC statutes in Colorado, Illinois, and Minnesota specifically apply the corporate veil-piercing theory to LLCs.

A member is generally considered an agent of an LLC and thus may bind the LLC for the debts and obligations of the business. When a member has apparent or actual authority and acts on behalf of an LLC while carrying on the usual business of the LLC, the member binds the LLC. If a third person knows that the member is not authorized to act on behalf of the LLC, the LLC is generally not liable for the member's unauthorized acts. Some states also limit a member's authority to act as an agent of an LLC.

Records and Books

Many LLC statutes require an LLC to maintain sufficient books and records of its business and management affairs. This requirement varies from state to state. The books and records generally detail the members' contributions to the LLC, the LLC's financial and tax data, and other financial and management information. Like a partnership's books, an LLC's books generally must be kept at the LLC's principal place of business, and each member must have access to and must be allowed to inspect and copy the books upon reasonable demand.

Taxation

The IRS generally treats an LLC as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. The LLC's members are taxed only on their share of LLC profits. Any gains, losses, credits, and deductions flow through the LLC to the members, who report them as income and losses on their personal tax return. The LLC is not taxed as a separate entity unless it fails to qualify as a partnership for tax purposes.

The IRS will examine a state's LLC statute and an LLC's operation to determine whether the LLC qualifies as a partnership for tax purposes. Essentially, if the IRS determines that the LLC resembles a corporation more than a partnership, the LLC may not qualify as a partnership for tax purposes. Under IRS regulations, an LLC must lack two of four recognized corporate characteristics before it will be treated as a partnership for tax purposes. These characteristics are limited liability, centralized management, free transferability of interests, and continuity of life. Because every LLC protects its members' liability, an LLC almost always possesses the characteristic of limited liability. Therefore, the IRS's analysis usually focuses on the last three characteristics.

Centralized Management

A business organization has centralized management when one or more persons have exclusive authority to manage its day-to-day conduct. Most LLCs lack the corporate characteristic of centralized management because most state LLC statutes provide that members manage the LLC directly, and LLCs that do not have separate managers lack the corporate characteristic of centralized management. However, some states require LLCs to have one or more managers to manage the LLC. If an LLC's operating agreement or articles of organization require each and every member to be a manager, the LLC likely lacks the corporate characteristic of centralized management. If, on the other hand, the members designate nonmembers to manage the LLC or designate member-managers who do not own a substantial portion of the LLC's membership interests, the LLC may possess the corporate characteristic of centralized management.

Free Transferability of Interests

A business form possesses free transferability of interests when one of its owners essentially has the power to substitute another person as a new owner of the business. Most corporate shareholders, for example, may sell their shares freely and thereby transfer their ownership interest to another person, without the consent of other shareholders. A member in an LLC, however, generally may not substitute another person as a new member unless the existing members agree to the substitution. A member typically has the power only to assign his economic rights in an LLC. Thus, members of an LLC lack the ability to freely transfer substantially all of their interest in the LLC.

Continuity of Life

Continuity of life essentially means perpetual continuation without regard to the withdrawal, expulsion, or death of any member. Most state LLC statutes provide for the dissolution of an LLC upon the death, disability, bankruptcy, or withdrawal of a member. Accordingly, most LLCs lack the corporate characteristic of continuity of life, unless their operating agreement substantially changes the effect of a member's withdrawal upon the continued existence of the LLC. Many state LLC statutes also limit the duration of an LLC to thirty years, but this limitation does not affect the IRS's determination of whether an LLC lacks continuity of life.

Member Withdrawal

Members may withdraw from an LLC unless the operating agreement or articles of organization limit their ability to do so. A member must usually provide to the LLC written notice that she intends to withdraw. If a withdrawal violates the operating agreement, the withdrawing member may be liable to the other members or the LLC for damages associated with it. State law frequently sets forth the circumstances under which a member may withdraw from an LLC. In many states a member may withdraw only if she or he provides six months' written notice of the intent to withdraw. In a few states, an LLC cannot prevent a member's withdrawal.

A member who withdraws is usually entitled to a return of his capital contribution to an LLC, unless the withdrawal is unauthorized. Some LLCs instead pay a withdrawing member the fair market value of his or her membership interest. The operating agreement typically provides for the method and manner of payment of a withdrawing member's interest. State law also governs those issues.

Dissolution

Dissolution means the legal end of an LLC's existence. In most states an LLC legally dissolves upon the death, disability, withdrawal, bankruptcy, or expulsion of a member. These occurrences are generally called disassociations. Other circumstances that bring about dissolution include bankruptcy of the LLC, a court order, or the fulfillment of the LLC's stated period of duration.

Most states provide for the continuation of an LLC after the disassociation or withdrawal of a member. Continuation after a member's disassociation usually requires the remaining members' unanimous consent. Some states require that the articles of organization or operating agreement allow for the continuation of the business after a member's disassociation. Some states allow an LLC's articles of organization or operating agreement to require the continuation of the business after a member's dissociation even if the remaining members do not provide unanimous consent.

If an LLC dissolves, state law and the LLC's operating agreement usually outline the process for winding up the LLC's business. In this process the LLC pays off its remaining creditors and distributes any remaining assets to its members. The LLC's creditors receive priority. Although members may be creditors, they are not creditors in determining the members' distributive shares of any remaining assets. After the LLC pays off its creditors, and only then, it distributes the remaining assets to its members, either in proportion to the members' shares of profits or under some other arrangement outlined in the operating agreement. After an LLC winds up its business, most states require it to file articles of dissolution.


whatever did happen to Transcription Limited?
They had a cool platform. Super transcriptionh friendly unless they changed it. All you had to do was type.
Point taken, but for some options are limited
That's one of the reasons I hate how judgmental some posts are (not you, per se, but in general). Above is the post telling the non-working TT'ers to go get 2 or 3 jobs, whatever it takes to make ends meet. And that's what I'm doing. I live rural- the Walmart is 34 miles/45 minutes away. There are a couple of jobs in town (15 miles away). In addition, depending on the work, even at slave wages for transcription, I would still make more than the town jobs pay, not to mention the added expense for gas, work attire, etc.

So I understand your point and it's valid, but there is a divide between what some people say (with your knowledge of the wage of a Walmart greeter, perhaps you?) about working 2-3 jobs if necessary and holding out for the wage that MT is truly worth.

Frankly, there are some that would look at one's decision to work for Walmart as a bad moral choice, too, considering what they've done to local wages and small mom-n-pop enterprises.
Just to clarify. I am limited in the number of fields ....sm
that I have experience in.  There are areas of this profession that I know very little/nothing about.  I do not pretend or present myself as having it all. However, I am well trained in the areas that include my clients. 
I've been limited to 6 hours/day per ortho doc sm
orders due to traumatic arthritis of hands from typing--an example of how the ground can be pulled out from under an MT.

Loved your answer -- limited vocabulary

Never really thought about it, but you are right.  They do have a limited vocabulary.  That's probably why their reports sound so funny, because they don't know the correct term to use and just use the closet term they can remember. 


Your post cracked me up.  Thanks again gourdpainter!


It can be done for limited people. And they quit allowing
Yes, I'm sure, not for YOUR account.

I do believe $50,000 may be possible for many at MQ, but not for Spheris and if Spheris finds out they are paying more than a few MTs $50,000, they will no doubt lower rate of pay again.
This was a limited poll. Post your comments on

the Initiative web site, which I cannot post here because they keep deleting it, so ask around.


The more voices that are heard, the more input received, the more realistic the figures will be.


The person that posted that there are union MTs making $28 hourly with full benefits must have typed that during cocktail hour.  It's not happening any where, especially not for at-home MTs who are paid by production and paid nothing when there is no work.


I am STILL finding VERY LIMITED information.... some URLs please?
Why so mysterious?  Where are the URLs to these sites?  I am not able to find much at all, except two people who did not like the Louisville branch. 
Form an LLC (limited liability corporation) if you are an IC by filing legal paperwork SM
that way no one can sue your personal assets away, only those of your business entity, even if it is only your IC company in your name. This can be done through a lawyer or at companies such as legalzoom. this limits your liability and protects your personal assets. otherwise, they can take away all your assets, including your joint assets of your spouse.
to posters above and below...
Stick to your guns and make it crystal clear that you want the HOSPITAL employee position.  That was also my experience.  I like my hospital employee gig.  E-mail me if you wish!
Job Posters

Do you all notice some of these job postings: *experienced, reliable and conscientious MT. Testing required* and then go on to say they pay 7-8 cpl depending on experience?* 


EXPERIENCED, reliable and conscietious MTs that have to take a test to even be considered DEFINITELY deserve more than 7-8 cpl.    


I beg to differ with the other posters (sm)
I've been with MQ for four years and I am very happy. No one hounds me, heck, yesterday I was gone to lunch for two hours, and NO ONE called me asking where I was.  As it has been stated before numerous times, things differ from office to office at MQ! That's just the nature of the game.  Don't judge MQ by what other people say, I almost did, and probably would have lived to regret it.  I'd say give them a try, what have you got to lose? Good Luck!!!
I agree. It seems as though many posters
complain about no work but I have to wonder how hard they work when their account is out of TAT. I have my two boys home with me daily. They are napping right now and in between breakfast, lunch, breaking up an occasional fight and all the hugs and kisses I can stand, I have still managed to type 2200 lines already today.
Sierra, the 2 posters below are RIGHT.
Both of their answers are right on.

I make a LOT of money with the same companies most people b**** about. I don't care what THEY think. I make good money and have fab bennies.

I stop by here every couple of weeks or so and usually just read to get a good laugh but the problems are always the same on this board: No one wants to work, they wanna sit and chat and post...every word you type HERE is COSTING you cents and cents add up to money, honey. No one here wants to leave a company if they're unhappy...staying there will make you as hateful as the so-called hateful company you complain about. No one here wants to give any company a chance for their OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE...apparently, no one can make a decision on their own. They just take other people's views and opinions and make them their own. How weak and feeble-minded is that?

Read sm and anon posts below. They'll get you going in the right direction. And forget all the negs on this board...LMAO - call 'em naggin' negs. ROOFFLLL

Okay to work for, but the other posters are right!

The other posters are correct sm
Not only is their pay so low, but you are actually penalized for blanks and needing help. This is why they are constantly advertising on a national level. There are plenty of local transcriptionists who would work for them if pay and conditions were decent. I would recommend staying away!
It is the posters who are embarrassing with their
LOL
TIA, are there mulitple posters who use this
If not, you are all over the place. How many different companies do you work for. You have tons of posts about tons of different companies. What gives?
Thanks to all 3 posters above. I will look where you suggested! nm

To the three rude posters...

Why do you even bother replying when you are going to be so rude and negative?  Some people on this board are unbelievable.  She's asking the question for people that want to answer - nobody requires anyone to answer anything.  However, I am sure that the reply 'nunya' was really helpful though - geez...


I got into it so I could stay home with my kids.  My husband does have a good job with benefits that are pretty good.  I wanted out of the office atmosphere anyway, all the gossip and BS. 


I agree with other posters that there is something
disingenuous (sp?) or creepy almost about the RAVE reviews over and over for this company. The language of the posts is suspect as well - how many MTs call each other MLS? So many of the posts just sound like canned recruiting posts - sorry. That's my take as well. And one thing I know 4 sure in this industry - when MTs do find that miracle company, they don't go blabbing it all over so that thousands of other MTs can apply. That's one thing that is a given. And all this hiring? Something is odd about that as well. So its not just 1 or 2 skeptics - I have a feeling there are a lot of us!
I agree 100% with the posters below!
Not to say all nationals are this way, but the one I work for now is terrible about communication, basically ignores e-mails, and generally leaves you with no way to reach them. I truly do feel like a mindless drone some days. You might find the change tough after being in-house for so long. Just my opinion here. Good luck to you! :-)
I also agree with the other 2 posters...
Been with OSi for several years.  I never run out of work and pay has always been on time. 
oh my bad ... I see you do have really happy posters
see thread way at the bottom.
Keystroke posters
It could also be because when they post questions on the other board which they are given access to when they begin working for KS - they are required to use the KS initials so that their supervisor can check up on them and see if they made an inquiry to the MTdaily board before leaving a blank.  Then if they haven't - it's a reprimand.  Been there - done that - glad it's over.
thanks for input from posters below...

I had been made a verbal offer, so nothing submitted in writing.  I did just call, and will be receiving my paperwork today.  Thanks for the info.


 


 


What is strange to me, are posters who use a reg.

TT posters see message

Hello all.  I'm getting hit from both directions with emails and reports here!  Sorry, I don't work for TT so I don't know what is true and what is not.  From what I can see below there was a problem today, but it has already been addressed and fixed by the company. 


With that being said, I will leave these messages on the board.  I'm going to ask that this conversation be done though.  I'm getting requests from both sides asking for removals of certain posts or all of the posts.  Everyone wants a place to post and get their questions answered or simply to find information, so as a general rule we want to leave the information to be found.  However, this topic has gone beyond that and turned into nothing but an argument.  Even the non-TT posters are getting in on the argument.  I appreciate everyone's understanding. 


Javabean (MTStars Moderator)



OK, I don't work for TT, but other posters SM
have stated they are rapidly moving into SR and if you don't do SR, you don't have any work.  They have been posting that for the last several months.
disagree with the other posters...
First, you are miserable and believe they want you gone anyway. Second, you are not confident they will pay you. With my experience of over 30 years as MT, i say NO, just quit with no notice. If it puts them in a pickle, it's of their own making. I don't believe it will hurt your future prospects. Why not? Because you worked for them a number of years -- that speaks for itself. You have the medical knowledge and can produce well. You'll be fine. Besides, so many employers never check your references anyway. Usual questions are where you worked and for how long, and why you left. Why make yourself miserable and not be paid for it? You'll find another job. and if its not the right one, you can keep looking. but in the meantime, you'll be PAID for your work and not be so unhappy (which isn't good for your health!!). Go for it.
Um, you slammed her. That's why other posters
felt the need to come in and try to make her feel better, take the burn out of her monitor. Other posters got the point across to her, without making her feel like an evil insider of Transcam, or a moron. Poor thing will probably never post again. Your postings are very borderline tonight - one post friendly, next post slamming. Go back and read your posts after you're in another mood, and you should see my point. But then wrapping up all the love with a Golden Rule motto just really sealed the deal. Peace out to you, too.
