Absolute BS

In Reply to: Have you considered the fact that If collars were that inhumane they would be illegal?? - NM
Baloney! Money talks and if insensitive cruel people buy shocking devices to control their animals, then these collars will be put on the market. Unfortunately in our society, there are no restrictions on who can own an animal. No background checks or mental health requirements. Anybody may own an animal and do with it pretty much what they want. The only qualification necessary is money--not compassion or sensitivity toward the animal--just money. And the same is true of these collars. If they sell, then humane or not, they are put on the market. How sad for the poor unfortunate animals in this world to have such an owner who would actually try to justify shocking them! Anybody incapable of training an animal without shocking it should NOT be allowed to own one.

If you could just QA for 1 day and see the absolute
garbage that QA people have to deal you might understanding where they are coming from. I don't agree with constant negative feedback. I do agree if the MT is wrong that corrections should be made and passed along. I don't believe additional comments need to be made about errors, unless they are repeated errors. I have had QA people correct things and make snide remarks about how style changes were made months ago and that I had previously received other information, etc. In every case in which the QA person made such comments I proved her wrong. I also complained to the MTSO and the person was taken off of QA.
If you are expecting positive feedback, in most cases it isn't going to happen, but I'm a believer that if you tell someone what they are doing wrong, you also need to tell them what they are doing right.
I try to be adult about it, and if I have made a mistake I make a note of it so that I won't do it again, but if I'm corrected for something that I'm not doing wrong I go back to QA with it. Almost every time QA has come back with you are correct, but and then tell me how they do things or add in a few more cutting remarks I go to the QA manager.
I work in a very particular account and they are frequently changing the way they want things done, but they want them the way they want them, doesn't matter what BOS says, doesn't matter that we are all in agreement that they are incorrect, we have to do them that way. It may seem nitpicking to the MT that some things are being corrected because they aren't really wrong maybe, but it isn't what the account wants.
I absolute would not not marry someone because of their last name!
I would keep my own last name as I plan to do whether I like his or not.
You are an absolute angel! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

Please, you owe them the absolute truth as you know it. SM
Not to discourage them, but it is of the highest importance that every person preparing to enter the workforce understands that for any job not tied to a specific geographic location in some way he is potentially in competition with the entire planet's workforce. English as the universal language is definitely a two-edged sword. But it also means they come ready equipped with an extremely valuable tool-fluent English.
To do anything else would be profoundly immoral and potentially do someone great harm.
The AHDI website has a section on questions frequently asked about MT that would probably be a great help in putting together your talk. It also has a report on Scenarios and Solutions for the Future" of MT. Different scenarios because they just don't know where we'll be.
You could include in your talk suggestions for related work they can also train for that is more geographically tied, such as tumor registrar and ?, and ? Nursing and hospital tech fields, of course, but when you come up with some more of those that still can be mostly done at home, you can come back and tell the rest of us about them.
my ABSOLUTE favorite is...
the alt+tab to navigate between open windows. just hold in alt and tap on tab to see what you have open and let go when you are resting on what you want.
I got your apology and it is absolute accepted!
Thanks!
I find that surfing the net is an absolute no-no
when I have a bunch of work to do at night. I try to get up and walk through the house, do a simple chore, get something to drink even if just water, helps me. If I find myself actually falling asleep while typing it is definitely time for bed because then I have to relisten to my entire dictation to make sure it is good. My DH is always telling me to go to bed at a decent time and get up early and I'll be more productive, which is really true if you are that tired. With my work if I'm not out of TAT, I pick the easy/short jobs first and leave the longer/more difficult ones until I've had some rest. While I may still have lots of minutes left, I don't have as many reports and I feel that I have accomplished something.
The absolute worst company out there!

I agree - Absolute best show on TV!! nm

What is your absolute favorite cake?
If you had to pick just one cake, what would it be? I love just about any kind of cake, but I have to say honeybun is my all-time favorite. I think I could eat the whole thing if I tried.
Any other absolute favorite desserts? Oatmeal candy has been at the top of my list since childhood. My mom always made it at Christmas and now I always like to do the same. Yummy!
Op notes are my absolute favorite. I can almost
double my line count when transcribing them. You don't have to spend time looking up medications, diseases, etc. Once you get the language/terms down, they move fast. Also, you can create many "normals" if you are doing the same docs over and over on common procedures - T&A, hysterectomies, cholecystectomies, etc.
SS is the absolute worst company. They offer
you the world to get you to stay, but it is a dead end job. $14.00 is NOT a good rate and twice that is not worth it. You will work like a dog and get treated like one. Not a nice thing to say about them.
That is absurd and an absolute untruth. Please don't make
assumptions based on others posts. Email addresses are kept confidential through this website. If anyone has any questions about this, email me. I'll be happy to respond.
Yuk, sewer backup is the absolute worst. sm
We rented a house for a year about 20 years ago, about 10 houses from where we live now. Every time it poured, the sewer backed up into the basement. Once we had water, 4 feet high too, and it stopped filling about 5 inches from the fuse box. We stayed through the winter and then the foundation cracked. That was enough. We bought a house with a dry basement. I swear, we had everything come in through the sewer-waste, toads, salamanders, you name it. It was gross. As a matter of fact, they put in a back flow valve too. Then the neighbors had the problems. The house is now on the market for over a year. No one wants it.
Why? M-TEC & Andrews produce the absolute best grads.

I need absolute silence in the background when transcribing. sm
Even nice sounding music bugs me. Silence, please
The absolute worst IMHO is the dictator
who loads up his mouth to capacity with marbles and then proceeds to talk.
Then you are an absolute FOOL. Down the road, you'll wish you were never involved
ll
Absolute worst quality sound files in my
20 year career, the worst ESL dictators (and I currently do about 95% ESL), horrible management, system not user friendly, technical support a joke, ..... I wouldn't wish this company on my worst enemy. Don't know anything about the other company, though several recent posts about them don't have anything good to say.
Absolute truth, I had problems like this until trying the Mary Kay Satin Lips. sm
There are 3 parts, a balm, mask and triple-action enhancer. I used it twice a day for less than a week and the chapped lips are gone. It really does work and is worth it.
Christmas tree blobs are my absolute fave. Send some to me. nm
