LOL - sounds like medical transcription in nutshell! nm
hehe
Hayseed, you're the ERMA BOMBECK of medical transcription!
nm
I have known someone like that too - she was my supervisor also - LOL (sm)
People like that have emotional issus - I think it is a mental illness of sorts personally. So if you can think of her as "sick" and when you talk to her, just say nothing personal about yourself, just like you are doing, and smile, talk about the weather may, if you have to talk to her, just something neutral. If she ever asks your or prods you for what is going on in your life, just always say that everything is great, everything is wonderful, can't even believe how good everything is!
Ask to speak with his supervisor and also
write a letter to the bank (and headquarters) telling them what happened and make sure you get the man's name and refer to him often in your letter.
Was that supervisor in the military or something?
One day you should have all plotted together and when she came in the room, jumped up and saluted. ROFL
I had a barium enema quite a while ago and my splenic flexure goes up really high and then twists. Sometimes gas will get stuck in there and it will hurt like the dickens. I'm glad I had the BE, though, because I know what it is and that it will pass in a little while. If it didn't, I would be at the urgent care pronto.
LOL - I think we must've had the same supervisor!

Hating my supervisor, and not being able to quit yet. nm

1. Escalate the problem to a supervisor. 2. Write a letter.

Dept of Wage and Labor?
? about Wy Dept. of Corrections Job Stability ? sm
Does anyone know about job stability at the prison there? My husband works there. We are separated, with a divorce likely very soon.
While trying to sift through his words versus true objectivity during this homework project, I want/need as much info as possible. I believe they are union, but not sure. He told me not long ago that he was getting paid $10 an hour, which I don't believe (he already draws pension from a previous police job).
He worked for the Marshal's Service/PD in either Rawlins or Hanna (I think it's Hanna), and was let go in 2008, reportedly due to budget cuts. I did believe that.
Any info would be appreciated, even a crystal ball!
Thanks!
I still think you should contact your police dept...
--
AMEN sister!! and do you know in the health dept there are signs all over saying sm
you don't have to be a citizen to apply for benefits? so we as taxpayers pay to support them to be here illegally, we feed them, we shelter them, we pay their bills, we have to pay extra because the company had to pay an employee extra who could speak their language, yet they are dropping the pay in fields like roofing, construction where they pool together and do this type of work for a little of nothing so the american legal person can't make a living off of it anymore.
Well, have to get the word out. How many of you are familiar with Belk Dept. Stores? sm
Well, they bought out our local Parisian Dept. store, promised to come in to our town, buy the building (in our local mall), and then backed out at the last minute. We live in a town of over 300,000. Anyways, so there is no longer any store there in the mall. They are just like Macy's. etc.
They have THE POOREST CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER (via phone) I've ever encountered. They don't even bill on a 30-day billing cycle, so my payment was due TODAY when I always thought it was the 6th of every month (I last made a payment Oct. 6 and thought I'd pay my bill a few days early) only to find out that the bill would be considered late if not paid by 5 p.m. EST. If I paid it on line like I always do, you MUST make the payment date at least 2 days later than today's date (makes no sense) so next month I would be LATE and charged 35.00. So I call to make a payment. This rude lady tells me: Go into a store and make a payment. I tell her, "well, we don't have a store within 200+ miles of my home since you guys never did come here," Then she says, "Well, you can pay by phone today by 5 but it will cost you an extra 15.00." So, I'm livid. She gets her supe on the phone who is rude as h*** and tells me that she wasn't the one who decided to pay late! OMG!
So, I call husband very upset. To make a long story short, I finally paid it after 3 LONG PHONE CALLS to these fools (all 3 of them were extremely rude). One guy put me on hold for 15 minutes (I counted!!) after I asked to speak to his supervisor and he gets back on the phone (minus his supervisor) after being put on hold and then I finally pay part of my bill.
Thank GOD Belk isn't around here. Sounds like a godsend.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE if you work hard, don't shop there! They SUCK** and I will NEVER shop there!!
And then clinic or specialty is
usually doctor offices, such as a cardiologist, pulmonologist, etc., etc. Acute care and Basic 4 are the same thing. OP notes means operative notes, discharge summaries (when the patient goes home) and tells of the hospital course during the patient's stay, H&P means history and physical (when the patient comes in as an inpatient), there is usually an H&P dictated and this is most likely by specialty depending upon the patient's problems and will include the patient's symptoms, past medical history, etc. ER means emergency room (pretty much self-explanatory). SOAP is subjective, objective, asssessment, and plan. Hope this helps. 
Am going to the pain clinic soon
and if as good as above, may even ask for it by name. I have fibro (as posted on autoimmune board) and really suffer with pain, pain as am typing now, never goes away, sometimes hurting, sometimes unbearable. Have some Tramadol but that is a little sedating although can work with it, nothing else. Will probably try to get there next week.
Does anyone go to pain clinic
for really severe, ongoing pain and if so what kind of treatments have you had, did you find something that helped and did not zonk you out so you could continue to work? I am in the process of having records faxed to pain clinic, tired of the uncontrolled pain. Thanks
I have one. Worked for a vet clinic. I know.
It is still cruel. Even the vets I worked for were disgusted by the practice.
Having worked in vet clinic, I would do it. It is not
surgically removing the first digit of the toes. To spay, uterus is surgically removed and no one thinks that is cruel. Aside from immediate postop discomfort, which you have with ANY surgery, they didnt seem in pain to me when we declawed a cat at the clinic. It seemed to me that it felt different to the cats, and just took some getting used to. I cant beleive a vet would say that to you. Do you think a cat would rather be declawed or thrown outside when is used to being house cat, taken to the pound, dumped in the country or given to someone who might not be so nice
Med transcription books
 I was wondering if any one could recommend a good drug book. Also, does anyone have any recommendations for a good surgical book? Thanks!
Anything BUT transcription on the Gab board, please. NM

I know - and I really want out of transcription NOW - thus, the decisions! nm

you are not a pain....you need to go to walk-in clinic
nm
See if there is a free clinic in your area or -sm
one that charges at a discounted fee based on your income. I did that for years though I had insurance through my parents, but did not want them to know I was on the pill. I just had to tell them how much money I made a month and they would give me a years supply of pills at a very discounted price. Basically went there for about 5 or 6 years until I got my own insurance after college. Saved me tons of money and it was a nice clinic associated with the local hospital. Even if you have to drive an hour to get to one it would be worth your while.
This has absolutely nothing to do with transcription, but I need opinions please...SM
My husband, my son, and my brother-in-law went hunting last weekend. We have two quads and my BIL has his own quad. They got home very late and all the quads were on my BIL's trailer and no one felt like unlaoding them, so my BIL took them home with him (they have two acres). I got a call yesterday saying one of our quads was stolen. I asked where did they have them? My BIL took them off the trailer and put them right next to a small three-foot fence that butts up to a pretty major side street. He stored his own in his garage. In the past my BIL stored his quads on his back porch. Apparently, the thieves lifted the small lighter one up and over the fence. The other one was too heavy so they didn’t steal it. We had insurance on the heavy one, but not the light one. We paid $1,700 for it new about three months ago. Right off before we got an apology or anything, my sister said they won't claim it on their homeowners. They suggested we lie and say it was stolen here at our house and claim it on ours, but my husband and I do not feel comfortable at all with this and will not do it.
My question is what part in all of this does my BIL play for storing it where it could so easily be stolen? I wouldn’t think anything about it if that is where they stored their own, but they don’t. They won't use their homeowners so we are out $1,700. Neither one of them apologized to me or anything until after I had spoken with my mother who then in turn called them and then they called me apologizing. In other words, my mother told them to call and apologize.
I can’t make them pay for it. I know my husband is partially at fault for being too tired to unload them, but I’m just so frustrated regarding where my BIL stored them. Yes, they have had their vehicle broken into on that side street and have had a trailer stolen from their driveway, so they should know better. They also have two acres to store them and the other half of their yard is fenced with a five-foot fence.
I guess we are just out the money and the quad. Unfortunately, we won't be able to replace it anytime soon.
Sorry to vent.
Re: At-Home Transcription Advice
Thanks for your reply! I'm looking to sign on PT with a company on here. I'll just get my computer upgraded and get a foot pedal, head phones, and some books from my clinic job. I'll get started and see where I go. . . By the way, is there a glossary on here someplace where I can look some terms like "Big 4 experience" and "Acute care" or "ELS experience". I just don't hear those terms where I work.
a transcription teacher told me,
"Say you will, and then go to it, that's the only way to do it!" I wrote that in my Taber's 30+ years ago, and still like it :)
I passed around several transcription books -sm
at the beginning of a semester to a class at a business school for the 20+-year-old students to see various TX resources available and afterwards, one book was "missing". I was very surprised. Bottom line: The bookstore was out the book, and I hated the loss for the school. Actually the bookstore was probably out twice for the book if it was afterwards returned to the bookstore for resale by the student who stole it.
I have never in my transcription life heard of this
How interesting though. How did she find out exactly what the cause was, can it be picked up on xray? Mine has been here over a year now and terribly uncomfortable. I think I posted have tried numerous physicians of all specialities and no one has been able to tell me what is the problem. After a year of this pain I would like to have it gone. How did her surgery go, how long was the convalescent period, etc., etc. I find this tremendously interesting.
I used to do plainclothes security work for a major upscale dept store - sm
Summer was my best time to arrest the teenage girls. They did not seem to take it seriously until the police showed up to take them downtown. I did have a few concerned mothers come by the store to speak with me. Just a lot of temptation out there...I would say to be very suspicious of clothing and such that seems to appear without having the money to pay for it.
Go right now to the nearest urgent care clinic or ER
Tell them what has happened and that you are ceasing to function. Get some help for yourself. Do not wait another minute. Come back and let us know how you are doing! Take good care.
For many years when worked in animal clinic, after
never a problem. Using a special litter after surgery is a relatively new idea. They have litters very similar in texture to regular litters for after declaws but where I worked, we told owners if kitty wont use box with special litter, to just use the regular litter and again, never had a problem with it.
I'm a volunteer nurse at the free clinic
I do medical transcription for money and nursing for free. I've been a nurse since 2001, and I sometimes miss people! Unfortunately, since I've upped my hours at work, I haven't been able to volunteer for the last couple of months.
Doing the free clinic is not like actual nursing work in that there's no backstabbing and pettiness, just appreciation. It's scary, though, knowing what medical problems people have been having for days and have to wait for the free clinic day because they couldn't afford the doctor's office (or the hospital). However, the doctors who do volunteer have the free clinic patients come to their real clinic for free if they have an issue that can't be addressed at the church where the free clinic is located, like drainage of a cyst or something.
Anyway, I wish I had more time for it. *sigh*
Make a fuss to school board, principal, teachers, dept. of child welfare (sm)
whoever you need to. I understand these are difficult to get rid of but obviously the mom of that little girl is not getting rid of them, maybe she treats the child but if you don't clean up the environment reinfestation is a sure thing.
We got a letter from the school yesterday stating there is a lice outbreak in the school. Then we had a program last night in which all the 3rd graders put on these little capes (that came out of a community bag where they had used them before at practice and then bagged them back up) They of course went over their heads and rested on their shoulders. I wasn't the only person that sucked in air when they saw this last night.
I am sure that poor child is and will be embarrassed about this and probably other things in the future if her health/hygiene issues are not being taken care of properly.
I just took a college tour with my daughter and they mentioned a dental clinic sm
with students that are studying to be dentists. I think universities with dental schools have dental clinics that are open to the public. I'm not sure what they charge, but it might be something to look into.

Been there, done that. When I went into the medical
field, I knew I would have to work some holidays. It's not AS bad when I can work from home. I consider jobs in the medical field emergent jobs and knew that working holidays came with the territory. I never thought I would see the day when grocery stores would be open on major holidays, though. Oh well, at least I still have my husband around to celebrate the holidays with and I realize there are some women who have lost husband or children and would give just about anything to have them back. I am blessed beyond measure and I realize that. It's just that this is the first time he has ever had to work on Christmas Day. 
are you trying to say that medical
transcriptionist's don't work? what is your point here???? Go away.
I'd probably do it if it is medical. nm

She is probably a medical transcriptionist
.
Are you prescribed that for a medical
condition or just take it to stay awake. I am just curious...not judging, lol.
Well, sometimes there is a medical issue
as there is here, not just eating and eating for no reason at all. Was always trim and slim until this but thanks anyway for the curt note.
I would think only if there are other serious medical issues
related to the alcoholism. It probably has to be pretty severe. That's sad.
Yes, she has a medical condition
shaking, quivering and twitching. Paris is afraid to go to jail that is it. Greta's take is a bit much. Greta keeps saying she has a medical problem. She needs Xanax or something. She will calm down soon. She was not quivering or shaking in her backyard hugging her parents. PLEASE.
Sheppard she has "Extreme bratititis". FUNNY.
Now PARIS PARADE she is off to jail now.
Does she have medical issues? sm
That may help in knowing where to look. Good luck to you!
wonder if there is a medical reason?
might ought to know the reason before the remedy.
Have medical causes been ruled out?
Not sure if it could be thyroid or lupus or what, but hair can indicate certain things.
You might want to get the People's Pharmacy book. It is full of inexpensive solutions for problems like that.

Does your dad have any medical problems. .
Your dad sounds like my dad. My dad was so negative that I just couldn't be around him. My dad would never go to the doctor. He was severely depressed and lost a lot of weight. He died a few years ago from CAD and was terribly anemic. It was sad because he died all alone, and he was only 55. My stepmother had left him. He could have gone to local VA and get free medical care. I begged him many times to get help. I know how frustrating it is to try and help your parents when they have no desire to help themselves. I hope your dad is healthy, but has he had a physical lately?
Medical Bills
I just finished my chemo and radiation for breast cancer. I have health insurance but found out that they only pay 80%. I have become overwhelmed with hospital bills. Does anybody know if those companies are on the up and up, that say that they can help you cut your medical bills ?
Thanx for any help.
