So, when the poop hits the fan..sm
who is going to get to take the flak for this mistake... besides the patient?
36 hits doesn't necessarily mean anything.
If there were 30,000 hits on Google, I'd think it legitimate. However, 30 hits could mean that there are 30 misspellings or 30 idiots out there making up words. Or it could be a real word. Normo is a combining form; however, reflexic is not in any of my dictionaries. (Merriam, Taber's, Dorland's, Stedman's) If the account's verbatim, use it. Otherwise, tag it.
Better Business Bureau BBB.ORG 39 hits of
Ameriplan with UNSATISFACTORY ratings. Do more investigating before you waste your money on an MLM scam, and please don't tell me to check it out because I already did two years ago.
THE HITS KEEP COMING-NEW PROBLEM AS OF OCT 1ST
You probably received an email from your supervisor about full time meaning you HAVE TO produce for 40 hours a week to be full time. That means, if you take any time off without pay (because you only have 80 hours of PTO a year) for ANYTHING (sick, funeral, whatever the emergency), you will no longer be a full time employee, which means no benefits at all.

If a post gets so many hits on it, it gets the flame.
Not sure what the magic number is though.
IMO - no. If he hits you once, he will hit you again. It will not matter what religion you believe

Good way to drum up hits. nm

Now that hits the nail on the head!
You said that right.
'MEDICAL TRANCRIPTION SUCKS."
It is the only job I have ever had where I actually do 25% of my work for FREE because my employer SAID IT WAS MY JOB.
And every day these companies are more creative looking for new and improved ways to bleed the MTs for more of our hard earned money.
And that IS the reality of this business.
Yep, google has it goin on... I really like the google earth...
Have you tried Google earth? You can type in any address, street, city, state, country, etc. and it will zoom in and show the area and then you can hit the + button and zoom right in and see the exact house, building, etc. that you are looking for.
Mainly Google; I google the known words in the phrase (sm)
That's my most frequent tactic if I don't find the word in my word books. I'll play with leaving certain words out and adding them in, in various combinations, to try to get a hit that has a word which sounds like my blank. If I get a hit, I'll Google WITH that word, and see what hits I get, and what their source is (i.e.,checking the sources out for reliability). When I say 5 sites or searches, I mean I don't often try more than 5 different combinations without a serious hit. If I get a hit, then I will spend a little more time checking that out before I give up.
If it's a drug name, I use RxList, or more frequently the Drugs.com website. Since they redid RxList, I haven't found one that has quite as good a wildcard search, but Drugs.com works okay most of the time.
If it's a place name (like when they give names of outlying outreach clinics and etc.) I'll use Mapquest and look up the city my hospital is in, then "pan out" and look at the outlying towns.
Hope that's what you're looking for. I do have bookmarks, but I find that even the ones I think I'll visit again, I waste more time doing that than with an intelligent google search. An example is the time I was looking for "banana bag." The only place I managed to find it with a degree of reliability was on a nurses' message board. I've found quite a bit sometimes on the various specialty message boards out there, but I think the quickest way to locate that is through a search engine rather than bookmarking each individual site and trying to figure out which ones to search for a particular term.
It's a good way to get lots of hits on your post!

Someone answered on this below, that thing pops up when it has had a lot of hits -see the # of views
probably set for 100 or something like that. So when it have however many views, the little fire springs up indicating is "hot" and has been looked at a lot!
Just went out and bout The Band greatest hits and listening right now to the Weight.
Oh yeah baby, just 12 more hits and I get FLAMED! Come on' give me FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nm
,
well wait til your daughter hits someone. You will lose everything in that civil lawsuit.
I mean, how ridiculous is that. Letting a 14.5 year old to get more experience. Sheesh. Let her drive at 16 with you and let her drive alone at 18, if you want her to have more experience. There's a reason why the driving age is 16, not 14.
Monsoon FINALLY hits Arizona. Microburst winds & rain.

Daughter is vegetarian. I cook a turkey and she hits the side dishes. (sm)
We do pretty well with this. I just make sure I have some of her favorites so she still feels like she is having a feast.
I saw a picture someone made of a "turkey" they had formed out of raw veggies. I think the basic form was one of those rounded shaped loaves of bread and the veggies were on toothpicks. the head and some tail feathers were made from construction paper. It seemed like an entertaining idea especially if you had small children around.
Keep contact at a minimum. Self doubt hits and it is when we tend to fall back into the web
Good luck to you. Expect highs and lows. Best to get professional counseling so they remind you of who you are and where you want to be when he tries to convince you that you are crazy.
Entry-Level MTs
Hello to all!
Can anyone give any advice on where I may be able to go and find an entry-level MT position? I greatly appreciate all the responses I hope to receive. Thanks all!
Entry Level MT's
MedQuist hires entry levels with good testing scores. Fax them your resume. Its worth a try. Good luck
data entry
Has anyone done Data Entry jobs from home? Thanks
this happens to me sometimes if my entry came from an enrich...sm
I would use the search function in the glossary viewer and edit the entry...if you edit it, it should work fine. Or, you can just make a new entry with the same sentence
HTH!
Entry level MT's
Hello.................I know all of you are tired of hearing about how hard it is to find a job at entry level. I have two certificates from two separate programs. I have been working for a clinic here where I live part time typing clinic notes. It is only about two hours per day. I found a lady on this site who said she would hire anybody if she could find somebody willing to work. I emailed her and she promised to get me started asap. That was a few months before Christmas and she still hasn't contacted me. Does anybody know how to get started as entry level. I truly need the work. My part time is paying well but two hours a day is not very much. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.................
entry level
It is very true, I graduated college in 2004 and I am still looking to find a company that will hire me at the entry level.
We are more than data entry BUT...
Yes, they will still need us to copyedit and clean up the voice recognition and offshore "crude" product, but from what I've read on these boards, there's not going to be much money in this for MTs.
I too am thinking of leaving MT for another field. This summer my 15-year-old son got his first summer job as basically an unskilled laborer at minimum wage, and he was making quite a bit more per hour as I ended up getting, turning an Indy 500 ESL's mishmash into a perfect operative report. The day I learned that, I decided to start rethinking my career choices.
By the way, I'm one more experienced MT who finds it mind-boggling that people are still out there debating the merits of the various MT schools out there. Wake up and smell the coffee, people!
data entry
I agree. But don't you know, there's always someone lurking in front of their keybord waiting to belittle someone else's from-the-heart question??

Help with setting new entry in VPN
I need some expertise... I have VPN for a company on desktop set up, need to create a new entry for another company.. .is that possible? I have the file in the right folder (PCF or something close to that file) and did the wizard, but it says no valid ID when I know it is... what am I doing wrong?
It is an entry position.
I wouldn't consider it a crap job. It is an entry position. There is not a lot of stress unless you work in ICU. If someone codes then the unit clerk has to take notes while the patient is being worked on (at least where I worked). Other than that I enjoyed it. A lot of paper work, keeping the charts in order, answering phones, that type of stuff.
Thank you, Google God. My google icon is

Entry-level position
Hi, I received my MT diploma in August of 2004 from The Career Development Institute. My average grade was 97%. I was very excited about finding an MT position but soon discovered that I was in a catch-22 situation. I had the training and medical terminology education but no experience. Every advertisement that I found required at least two years of working experience. Is there any advice anyone could give me to get my foot in the door? How do MT's begin working when they are new to the field?
Any info. would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Jane L. Creppel

Entry Level Jobs
Hi everyone! I have a quick question for anyone who has the time to answer. I am looking in to a career in the MT field. I have not started classes yet but I am going to check them out next week. I did a search for MT companies in my area. I noticed that on alot of their websites you had to have so many years experience before you could gain employment with them. If I decide to take classes in medical transcription, how likely is it that I will be able to find employment with someone on an entry level? I have heard from some people that it is nearly impossible to get a job without the experience even if you have certification. Is this true?
Shorthand users. Can you tell me how to set up an entry for...sm
today's date and yesterday's date so it will expand correctly? TIA
Data entry position
My post did show so I will ask again...does anyone know where I can find a listing of jobs for data entry positions?
Add the nonbreaking hyphen in your entry. sm
Add the nonbreaking space for your other entries.
In MS Word, the shortcuts are: Ctrl+Shift+Hyphen and Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar
I'd keep the habit but change the IT entry
so that it comes out the way you want it - make it adjust to your habits.
Flyingfingers, when you add or edit an entry...SM
there's a box on the bottom left called "Tags." At the end of your entry where you don't want a space, open that and insert "No Space."
certainly not data entry or typing,
my reward, aside from pay, is satisfaction that i am doing a very specialized job in an excellent manner. after 34 years, it seems more tedious and difficult, but i enjoy the work.
