Yes, the information needs to be removed
If you want to reuse some of the discs, you can reformat them and erase the info.
De-identifying my eye. I don't trust ANYTHING that AAMT does. Nice try, but I can't buy.

Yes, it will be removed.

You have to have them removed by
I wish we could delete them ourselves. It would be so much easier than trying to get someone to do it for you, plus they might delete the wrong ones.
It has been removed.
Yep - otherwise, modertors would have removed it.

I was removed off an acct. after one day -sm
as the client requested I be removed. I don't remember being given any samples (several years ago). It was an ESL, a new acct. etc. So I did have blanks here and there, the MTSO had told me not to worry, they'd QA all the work. For some reason or other they did not, hence the work went through as I had left it. Needless to say the client was not happy, so I was removed from the account. I did not lose my job though, but I was peeved for sure about the whole thing. We eventually parted ways and I have not had that problem since.

Had one removed many years ago...
Hurt like the dickens everytime I tried to move my hands or fingers. After removal, haven't had a problem since. Surgery was outpatient. Was able to type (though very slowly) the next day. Back to speed within a week.
Why was my post removed?
I posted a thoughtful post in reply.
I would appreciate knowing why it was removed.
Thank you.
They are not allowed to post here. It is removed. (NM)

Was the post regarding Brainbench removed?
I have had nail tips put on and removed
numerous times but I always have them cut them way down the first time and then as they slowly grow you don't even notice the keyboard thing because it's a gradual thing. Before you know it you're typing with the longer nails. Done it many times and that's all that worked for me. Maybe go back and have them cut them down before removing them. I actually had people tell me the shorter nails look nicer, very natural, and long nails are pretty much out now anyway. Plus they are difficult to keep clean. You'll see. ; )
In addition, we have queued the ad to be removed
but it usually takes a few days for it to remove.
And they are removed. If they're not, then they got missed.

Post was removed because it was not on this subject.
It was not against offshoring, it was against the other poster as well as this site.
You posted a hostile response without reason, and it was removed.

MODERATOR - WHY WAS MY POST REMOVED ABOUT WHERE I LIVE
All I stated is that I grew up in the Utica/Rome area, and now it is deleted. Who did I offend????
Okay Sandra! We all agree you need to be removed from the board.
Hurting peoples feelings are uncalled for and just plain rude. You are a troll. You are very sad sad person who has no social graces whatsoever.
Job ads go on the Job Seekers board only, that is why post was removed.

Medical Mystery. Man has his uterus removed!
Nah, not really. But, my dictator actually said that today. I split my side laughing. Almost had to go to the ER to get stitched up!

We did that, too. Tossed the drawer, removed the runners.

Again, regarding Keystrokes, I only removed threads because they got absolutely out of control.
Further, at the beginning of the year and after sponsors memberships have run out, we will no longer be offering sponsorships. We do not want to give the impression that any sponsor has any effect on MTStars just because they are a sponsor. They do not.
If you have further questions, feel free to email me. I am open for discussion anytime.

It got quite ugly to the point that I removed the entire thread. We just all don't have
time to pick through and pull out the ugly posts, so in this case, the whole thread went. Franky Boy has been banned.

Don't do it. I had mine surgically removed after I got married. 2 bad scars now...after a
while the newness will rub off and YOU WILL question why you did it. Unfortunately, one of the tatoos was on my left chest, so any low-cut shirt I wear shows this ugly scar (or it would have shown a STUPID dolphin).....I have to admit, I like the scar much better, though! Costs thousands for removal. The other one was on my left leg. U-G-L-Y
It was not an health related jobs post, so it was removed.

I removed the drawer to mount the keyboard tray.
Surprisingly, I didn't need that drawer as much as I thought I would. I found an adjustment keyboard tray at a bargain clearance store for $19, originally sold for around $80. Try ebay, too.
I have removed negative posts made by those who seem to feel the need to
Christmas by making crude comments about something fun we do every year at Christmas time.
We had problems with the Main board and some posts were removed. You did not offend
The post about the resume bank has been removed. It was discovered that the person
who made the post was lying and got caught. Administrator
Attn: MTSO - re: your earlier post for a reliable MT that was removed
I replied to your earlier post, as did a couple of other MTs, however, now I see that your message has been removed.
I just wanted to try to touch base with you again.
If you are still looking for help and would like to contact me you can do so via replying via email to this post.
Thanks....
I wonder why your post was removed before?? Moderator, info?
If the state boards are no longer active, why haven't they been removed so people don't waste

I hate Instant Text. It is expensive, long long learning
curve, and too much distraction for me.
How long should I wait after applying for a position before I follow-up. It has been as long as two
without hearing from some. Just wondering if I should send an e-mail to follow-up to see if they received my resume or not. I don't want to offend anyone but feel two weeks should be long enough for someone to at least acknowledge my resume and that I have applied for a position. Right now I would accept anything even a note saying no thanks. Any advice would be appreciated. I haven't had to apply for a job for the past 10 years so I am a bit rusty at this. Thanks again for any advice.
Congrats! How long have you been a MLS and how long did you study for the test!
Please see message. I have three daughters with long, long hair.
I also have long hair down to my waist and my three girls have hair that long too. My daughter brought them home from school last year. I was devestated and grossed out!!!! I have never had to deal with lice. Anyway, we did the treatments and two of my girls broke out in a severe rash with the OTC stuff. Their little heads were so sore!! I thought I was being meticulous with eggs, only to find them hatching again down the road. A nurse at the pediatricians office suggested I try oil to suffocate them since my girls were allergic to the lice solution. I bought a huge bottle of veggie oil and dumped it on all three heads, plus my own. I then wrapped the heads in platic wrap and then a towel. I left this on for 30 minutes. It takes a while to wash out the oil, but we never, ever had the lice or eggs again!!! If you try this, make sure you put on an old shirt and put a towel around your shoulders. Obviously we were desperate, but we all have such long hair and very thick hair so I was willing to try anything. And I figured there was no chemicals involved so that was pretty safe. And it sure did help my littles ones since their scalps were pretty raw from the solution. Hope this helps and Good luck!
It's been a long, long time since I've used a C-phone, sm
but I do think jobs can be paused.
I had a problem with this for a long, long time sm
I have always worked days, like from 6-3. Over the last few years, it didn't matter how much sleep I got, I became real groggy between 7 and 11. Really shoots the day. Talked to my doctor and he said my blood pressure pills were the culprit but he refused to change me to another brand or dosage since I have multiple aneurysms (2 in the brain). My BP has been stable for a long time and he wants to "keep it on the low side". I tried taking them before I went to bed instead of early in the morning, but then I had headaches all day. So, I am changing to a night shift for a few months so I can sleep when those pills kick in and so far it is working pretty good. I stay mostly awake during my shift and die when I hit the bed from 6 am to 10 am, then I lay down again later in the afternoon for 2-3 hours. I still get 6-7 hours of sleep, it's just split up during the day, plus I am mostly awake now when I sit down to type. I don't have to deal with the heat in my office, either. It tends to warm up real fast in here with the south sun on the house and 2 pc's running all day, even with the air conditioner on.
Way back when, a long, long time
ago and in a galaxy far, far away, I had my own accounts also and some years cleared $75,000. Yes it can be done, but you need to have your own accounts. Also lots of delivery, and other duties involved. I work for a large national now and make much less, but I got tired of accountants, having to deal with hardware problems, deadlines, driving deliveries, printing, printers, etc. So I decided to simplify my taxes and stay home and just type. Don't have to worry about computers either, because the company will just send me a new one.
Long, long files. Seemed like they'd never end! I'd never go back to VA again. nm

I've been doing this a long, long time...
I used to make $70,000 and up a year and did so for most of the late 80s and 90s (one girl used to make six figures a year working 7 days a week!) Because we were making more money than the supervisors and Medical Records Directors in hospitals, they began to switch to transcription services which were sprouting up all over the place. Plus AAMT came into existence and even though in the beginning it claimed it was to fight for transcriptionists (although assured us it was NOT a union), they eventually morphed into an organization that was more management friendly. They developed the "guidelines" and the 65-char line. That was the beginning of the end for those high-end wages. Then all those mickey mouse transcription schools popped up, and now outsourcing overseas. YES, we're complaining.
Been in this biz a long, long time, 30+ years and....sm
I love/loved MTing. However, things have changed so much during these years. The job definitely gets easier; don't have to look up much, can decipher ESLs much easier, in other words, you get pretty comfortable with things and you have confidence in yourself. The more experience you have the easier the job, but....
I actually made more money 10 years ago!! We didn't have speech recognition and you actually got paid for headers/footers, demographics, carbon copies, etc., you got paid for what you did fairly; today, I am not so sure.
You will feel burned out at times, but that passes and you find you like your job again.
Good luck to you!!
