Ant bait

Raid has an ant bait that is pretty good. It looks like a roach motel and you can put it on the counter, etc. Also you have to really scrub with bleach or a product like it. The ants actually leave a chemical trail behind them so their fellow minions can follow their trail. To really get rid of them you have to obliterate the trail.

HAHAHAH.....bait, bait, bait
Laurie is too happy, happy, happy to take the bait. Besides she is waiting for her doctor to finish chewing and swallowing. His cookie.
OSI bait and switch
I probably would have stayed with OSi but they did the same to me. I got the contract signed it with the accounts they were assigning me. Started working noone ever gave me the list of people in my group so I could chat with someone when I needed help etc., supervisor would never follow through with promises, was given accounts I had no information for and was not even in my contract. BREACH OF CONTRACT on their part. Keep looking there are some out there.
OSI, bait and switch
Want the name out in the forefront. Don't want to mislead anyone.
Bait and switch.
You have a right to be  . It is nice to vent here too. We are routing for you! 
Bait and Switch
I hear you loud and clear. My take on this current trend is that when you state what you want (job types) you are showing weakness for what you don't want (unfamiliar ground). Employment is tight now so they want people that say "bring it all on as I have no favorites. I like the variety and challenge of new territory instead of same old, same old.
They are favoring people who can step up to the plate without whining and do it all and with a smile. They are sick of catering to some MTs who cherry pick their way to a paycheck and leave their left overs for whomever.
So bite the bullet and start learning something new and get good at it. If you don't someone else will come along and only be too happy to do it for you.
Yea, it's a little bit of a heads up I would say. It's happening across the boards now. You are not alone.
Terro bait traps
Terro is the best thing I have used indoors. It is especially good in places like the kitchen because I don't like to spray in there. We found the fireants coming in around the kitchen window one night a few weeks ago and I put some out, the next morning the ants were all dead. Just to be sure we found their nest outside just under the window and sprinkled it with Orthen powder.
Just dont bait them. There are gonna
This sounds more to me like bait and switch.
company offering clinic work exclusively. This sounds like gravy work for newbies, and then switching them into something more difficult.
I don't mean to sound unkind, but if you are working for an MTSO, then no account belongs to you. The accounts you transcribe for belong to the MTSO and not you the transcriptionist. The only time an account belongs to you is if you contract the physician him or herself and give your rates. Once in a while you'll find a physician or facility to employee you as an MT, but they usually expect you to work on-site. Good luck in your endeavors.
Most of the time, an MTSO is not out for the MT, but for the client and making money for themselves. They don't really concern themselves too much with whether the MT can make any money or not. It's just not high on their list.
Bait and Switch, tired of it!
Oh, I just had to come here and vent. So, thanks in advance for listening!
I have had 1 employee job and 2 IC jobs since Christmas-time and have been bait and switched up and down in all 3! Applied for certain types of work type, certain types of benefits (the employee job), and got zip. Then, went IC and again, applied for certain work types, certain accounts, hired and promised the world, and then never ever got the work types, instead got all the ESL and all the resident's ESL discharge summaries and that is it.
What is the deal? These places think that when we don't get the benefits promised, the paycheck promised, the work promised (I will do all work types mind you and am very flexible, just hired for certain kinds of work and then only put on the very worst ESL discharges at all jobs), we will be broken down because we are afraid of not having a job, or not having the ability to get another?
I am truly burnt out at this. I worked for years at one hospital, and when they cut incentive and sent work to outsource, since I have been in the world of MTSOs, bait and switch up and down. And this includes the very well thought of and highly rated companies here from last fall (you probably can guess the ones).
Of course, perhaps they think the MT needs to be quiet and be happy to have a job (which by the way, all 3 ran out of work and slim pickings recently) since everything is going to India. Is this some kind of scare tactic? Shut up and put up? Really. I am interviewing as an employee again, and hoping to stay because I just cannot take this bait and switch, no promises kept, demeaning treatment anymore... Thanks again for listening, and hope there are people on here who do not have the same sob story, who actually get the pay, benefits and work types they were hired for and promised! Have a nice day.
Funny thing, I knew I could bait you.
Call 1-900-555-5555 for more information for just $10.00 a minute. I can tell you your future as a sucker will go nowhere.
Yep, I hear ya! They pulled the bait and switch on me before I even got started!
Unreal - Recruiter promised one thing - got the instant contract through email with the exact opposite! Bailed before I started! Sorry for your bait and switch.
Be cautious...great bait and switch routine, you can do much better...
they also outsource overseas (a percentage). you will do well if you have low self-esteem. everyone great until you get thrown to supervisor...hehe, you'll see.
my opinion, my experience.
I'll agree. Have had the bait n switch happen to me several times. nm

They must be so frustrated. Gnashing their evil-doing teeth. Trying new bait, tossing out the line.
But we're not gonna BITE! Have I mentioned to you that rabbits bite? Some do, though I don't think they particularly mean it...
ER is the epitomy of acute care. How is this bait & switch? Were you hired for op notes only? nm
