Look in phone book or google for your area
Free legal aid or legal assistance. I know it exits in my area, southern California, I used it once.
This seems way out of line. Google attorney general for your state, here in California it is Jerry Brown and look for an email address and send in a question. I know I have read of scams in newspaper they have gone after, like the home loan modification scammer etc.
This is really really bad, so sorry it happened but don't give up, there must be a loop hole, how can that be OKAY??? Huh
What?! Do you have your number listed in the phone book?
This is the same info they can get out of the phone book, i.e., name, address, and phone number. This is not what they use to commit identify theft. They would use the general information from your resume to phish for more detailed information, such as SS# or bank account/cc account info. This is also what they would get out of your trash if for some reason you don't shred this info before you throw it out. Also, with past employers, they are only allowed to give basic info, such as length of employment and whether you're eligible for rehire. They can be held legally responsible if they give out detailed information about you!
I am very realistic that I'm not immune to identify theft, but also I know the law and know that I shouldn't be paranoid about someone stealing my identity. I take the appropriate steps to protect myself and monitor my credit report frequently.
Here is my advice.......RUN, do not walk to the nearest phone book. sm
Look up Legal Aid of whatever city or state you live in. They are a group of lawyers and paralegals that do work for free or sliding scale, etc. They will do all the leg work for you. You supply them with copies of your documentation and any other records you have kept regarding email, snail mail, or phone calls.
The most important thing... when you talk to and deal with these people, document, document, document. Document EVERYTHING
Then go to the Better Business Bureau and let them know what is going on.
Call your state Atty General's office and tell them what is going on and give them copies of any documentation you have.
Then I would quit. I know she probably can't afford to and it is experience she may not be able to get anywhere else, but as the post below said, they aren't going to give her a good reference anyway if they have not responded to her mail and phone calls.
Let us know how it goes. Keep us posted.
Sted's Ortho Words, a lab words book, at least 1 drug book, and your AAMT BOS 2nd

I dont cherry pick, never did. I dont do that to my coworkers on my account.
What is the new status. I dont understand what it means. I dont need their benefits nor do I want
them.
I dont know what that means. I am an SE. I dont sit and wait for work I come back in when it is
there so I never had to deal with Amherst when there was no work because I just stopped working and did other things. My feeling is if this doesnt work there are other jobs out there.
I just dont want to hit that extra space if I dont get paid for it, ya know. No message.

If I cant make QA, dont give me work. Dont dock

I didnt get the packet, do we have to take their insurance if we dont need it. I dont want it. Wish
I would have gotten the stupid thing to read.
Worked on C-phone for 10 years with 1 phone line

Well, I know that MTs from my office have quite MQ and they dont post on here but I dont know how
many. I think MTs with MQ may be getting second jobs and just working for 2 different places at the same time which is probably the smart thing to do anymore because MQ will continue with this short TAT and as it spreads throughout other offices people will continually be running out of work especially after going on DQS.
You obviously have the wrong company. If they dont IM you, then you dont have it on..
I smell management. Nothing you said makes sense unless there is another Focus out there.
Sorry if I dont like gutter humor. Also dont like

C-phone - I purchased a c-phone from someone in Oklahoma but never got it. *sm*
First she told me her grandmother died. Then she told me she mailed it. Then she told me her daughter was having chemotherapy. Call me naive, but I thought she was sincere and cannot imagine anyone using their daughter as an excuse. If this is the same person from Oklahoma, I sure would like to know about it because now I want my money back.
What law? There's no law. There was a book (sm)
by a conservative that came out, which is what started this whole heightened nonsense over Merry Christmas vs. Happy Holidays. That book has effected a nice smokescreen to get away from the real issues plaguing the party, such as illegal wiretapping.
maybe in your book but not for an MT who is a
.
They are in my book.

What are you writing, a book

About the book/tests - have you not ever sm
done any in-depth research into the field you are working in? Had you done that, you would have probably ended up at the AHDI site at some point (creator of the BOS) or MTChat or here - references to BOS and tests come up daily. How could you have been working and not know there was a BOS?
Re The Book of Style
Just a short note to say, you really need to learn the BOS, even if you don't think you need to, and no matter what anyone else tells you, for your own knowledge, you need to know the basics--the style basics. We all had/have to do it, you are not alone. It's all a part of the game. :)
I agree 100% with you. The book is sm
correct 99.9% of the time. Once in awhile you will find something wrong, but then you just write it in and change it. You never know on the internet. I don't think there is any substitute for sitting down with a book and doing research. I do understand that in this day and age it is not cost effective to do that. That is why I still believe that it is a disservice to MTs not to be able to work in-house for several years before going home!
with a book you wouldn't need sm
suggestions now would you. There would be an entry and it would be correct. Also there are still some places that don't do voice files through the internet so it wouldn't matter if the internet was down or not.
Obviously there IS A place for the internet but to say you can't or won't use books anymore is crazy!
I don't have a second phone line ... cable modem for the internet, regular line for my C-phone.
If anyone wanst to get through to me while I'm working, they have my cell phone number.
And, as I said, some accounts are using wav files -- no doubt soon all of the accounts will convert. Hope so ... would make it easier (less expensive) to work when traveling. :-)
Lots of good companies out there -- hope you find one that fits :)
a 1-hr window is NOT flexibility in my book.

Those of you that have the book, can you figure out what she is asking. I'm very curious too. B

That's fast in my book. I can't do that. Great job! :) nm

Correct - I don't want to write a book.
If you want more information, please email me. I can only say what I experienced.
All those are Negative points in my book! Keep looking, please! nm

So? BOS is just book by ladies with too much free

I seen a book on ebay or amazon once...sm
and it tells you how to start your own MT business. I was looking for reference books and it popped up. I had typed in medical transcription books or something like that.
Go to the library and check out the book
do you a lot of good to read that.
Book of Style 2nd Edition
This says without the apostrophe is preferred but that the apostrophe is acceptable if that is what's dictated and/or the client wants it that way.
This book was written well before Vista came out. sm
So to say no may not be correct. I would email Cheryl and just ask her. HTH!
Hot darn it is in the Ahdi book.
The only time QA makes me pound my head is when they are correct and it can be seen in print.
Also, the new Nuance 7.5 VR is so smart. . .it remembers corrections you make. The whole page(s). Start planning. . .this one is top notch. . .better than the first. No more overtime. No more parttimers.
source, please? In my hard book
Webster's there is only an e, no y. Need to know if this has changed and I don't trust Google on everything.
It is an open book 50 question quiz
I enjoyed taking it, may take the job if they offer, I need to get some additional memory in my computer but that should not be too difficult, about $35 for another 256MB.
Can anyone recommend a good reference book
for radiology. I just started on a rad account in training. I love it so far but would like a good radiology terminology book that especially contains terms for MRIs and CT scans. ALso, can anyone tell me what the average rate is per report for radiology? Thanks!
Some emails are missed and not in their address book
nm
The book contains suggestions. They don't write the rules
they merely published them in a format convenient for us to review - save your anger for the JAHCO and the American Medical Association.
Those are definitely text book anxiety symptoms
You may want to see if you can get something for your anxiety; something that will not make you drowsy if you take it during the day. Good luck.
DocQscribe is the best in my book! You just type. Very easy, nm
nm
Reference book, office supplies, equipment. nm
I type radiology and the ortho book helps
I also had to get a medical & surgical words book to help with some of the procedures. They were well worth the money - got mine on ebay pretty cheap.
I SAW a book on it once, too. It was called The Independent Medical Contractor.
nm
I use Stedman's Orthopedic and Rehab Words book..
and Google is also a good research tool :)
Unfortunately, this isn't available in my area. Who wants to pay LD anyway.

another Bay Area MT
I live in Santa Clara and I totally agree with you. SF and the Bay Area as a whole are very unique. I do not think that I could live anywhere else either. My life feels so easy here. No freezing my tush off in the snow. In fact, I am still growing herbs and swiss chard outside. I can take the bus and/or train all over even to the beach. I enjoy all the diversity we have here in the Bay. I grew up in South Florida and in some ways the Bay is similar, but even better with our microclimates. I love the fall here. Just a little cool, but yet we still have the trees turn with beautiful yellow and orange leaves. Most all of the people I have met here are very nice. I enjoy going to the different farmer's markets and taking a day trip to SF. I enjoy the Ferry Building and its market very much.
bay area MT
I grew up in South Florida and lived in PA about 20 minutes from Philly before moving to the Bay and I think that my quality of life here is very high. I live in the Silicon Valley:) Personally, I think that my cost of living was much higher in PA than it is here. To each their own though:)
I can tell you in my area...
We have two very large health systems here, each with multiple large hospitals under their umbrella: Mercy Health Partners and ProMedica. ProMedica is the largest employer in our city (Toledo), even over the Daimler-Chrysler and Jeep plants. ProMedica does house some MT's and some work at home depending on which hospital and department. However, their pay is exceedingly low. Mercy, however, is the ultimate dream job. Any of their hospitals will hire remote MT's while still making you an employee, their pay is outstanding and their benefits are outstanding. In exchange for that is simply a regular work schedule, being 1st, 2nd or 3rd shift. Yes, I wish they'd all do it this way!
This book is going to change our lives and it is very important to share information with each other
