large file transfer
My MTSO sends large volumes of new account info (tons of normals, etc) in compressed files thru e-mail. Don't know anything else about compressed files, but thought it might be worth checking out.
I work for a large company beginning with an "M" and make
10.5 for text and 7 cpl for speech recognition. I work 10 hours a week and make 800 a month. I'm old and slow too.
They make darn good money at most large grocery stores
No, I don't tip them. If I thought they weren't getting paid hourly, then I might. I might tip someone who gave extra great service, like coming home and carrying them in the house for me, (j/k!) but most places where you are expected to tip, people just expect the tip and take it for granted anymore and don't always treat you well enough to deserve one!
Start Stop voice file player and conflicts with Spyware Doctor
I was having problems with StartStop and talked to one of their techs this morning. One of the bugs it was having was fixed when I turned off Spyware Doctor so I need a new anti-spyware program.
I’m thinking of trying Spyware Blaster. I called to see if there were any conflicts with that one but had to leave a message. In the meantime, does anyone use StartStop voice file player and also use Spyware Doctor without any buggy conflict problems between the two softwares?
You spending 3K in gasoline to make 4K plus all that time on the road?That doesn't make sense Pat
Make sure you have checked .dss file on your

make sure that file extension is checked

I believe you would need to make changes to the normal.dot file in Word.
There are two ways to do it. You can open up your existing normal.dot file and change your view to 200% and then save it. Or you can create a whole new normal.dot file with the settings you want, but if you do it this way, you have to find and delete the original normal.dot file.
Either way, every new document should be magnified to 200% and in whatever font you set the default as.
To start expect to make about $6 an hour - sm
If you are good, meaning not having to look up a billion things and a quick and accurate typist then you can make more, $16+ depending on the type of work you do. I am not a fast typist, though I do not have to look up much (except for address which slows me WAAAAAAY down), and I currently make about $12 an hour with 4 years experience. So this is no huge money maker. As you are only looking to supplement, you could probably expect to make an extra $30 a week to start, presuming you can find someone to take you on for so litte work. In time you may get that up to $60 a week, but still it is not a fortune.
It's time for the fun to start once again!!!!
Lady, you reign it in. No one sounds like an adult complaining about their job day in and day out. That's what people do who work at McDonald's for minimum wage or as a cashier at Wal-Mart. They complain because they don't make a lot of money for the work that they actually do.
So, why don't all of you who want to sit here and bash me and everyone else who actually like working for Medquist get up off your dead behinds, take a shower, maybe do your hair for once, put on some makeup, take advantage of the rest of the day. Don't complain for once. I know it may come as a shock, but there are people who don't complain all the time and really enjoy their life. Maybe you really have an issue that you need worked out in counseling about being negative all the time. Let me know how that works out for you.
Make sure that $5000 is in your hand before you start packing !! nm

So it's time we all start doing our own work (sm)
We cannot afford a middleman anymore.
If you think that's bad, try living on the 7-8 cents a line and still having the expenses of paying for equipment, etc.
Time to just find your own accounts, folks.
Tell them will have to start charging for time

You're welcome! Start dealing with some lawyers, and they make MQ look nice!
I'm not wasting 45 minutes of my time for a 2 minute voice file.
I'm not wasting my time on a physician who can't or won't speak half way decently, English born or not. I don't have to work for crappy doctors. I found ones who are willing to make an effort if they can't speak English, they try and spell things as do my English docs. I've been an MT for a VERY long time. I'm an excellent MT and have nothing to prove to you. Have a wonderful holiday season filled with KINDNESS. Try being a little less judgmental. Sounds like you ride atop a very high horse.
You might have to do a system restore to the time before she sent file. Vista is still too buggy

Start Stop digital player has a time stamp feature..sm...
I'm not sure if it puts it in Word or what it does. I've never needed it.
I think a program that would pull header information from Word and add it to a log file might be needed by quite a few MTs. I don't know if that's feasible since everyone's needs would be different. A lot of MTs like to keep logs though, myself included.
If I think of anything else I'll be back.
Anybody seen how Time Warner is going to start charging "heavy broadband users?" sm
http://www.news-record.com/content/2009/04/02/article/time_warner_cable_will_track_charge_by_internet_usage
OF INTEREST TO ALL TIME WARNER CUSTOMERS...THEY ARE GOING TO START CHARGING FOR USAGE AND NOT A FLAT
This really sucks as the article said it would impact heavy users only. My cable bill is already high but to be charged for actual using will skyrocket my bill. I think I could spit nails right now. I can post the article if anyone is interested. They said it will be a trial period. Anyone else use Time Warner?
Sorry, I will make sure I get it right next time, Zipper.

I don't know if you'd make the trip in time. When my
mother was dying she died within 24 hours of her kidneys shutting down - by this I mean she quit producing urine. She had cancer that has spready rapidly throughout her body so there may have been contributing factors involved.
So how much do you make for the time you spend
*Enquiring minds*, and all....
I make about 35 K part-time to
I have one of my own accounts and sub for a local contractor at a high rate. I also work for one online company that is flexible but the work is low. I'd feel better not giving the name because I feel that is personal.
to OP: you might want to try asking about specific companies or asking about companies that offer what you are looking for.
You may be getting flack because salary is a personal thing with tons of variables. Even though the posters seem like they are coming off hard the truth of the matter is that everyone is different and everyone has a different work situation.
Sure, I have bills to pay and I am expected to bring in an income, but my husband is the breadwinner and he also has the health insurance. I still feel pressure to do as much as possible but my main goal is to make sure the kids are taken care of and their appointments, etc. If I was at home all day with no worries regarding two school-aged kids, I'm sure I'd easily make 60 K or more and need subs if I were to market myself as an MTSO. But I prefer to stay an IC and not use subs.
I don't know if this helps at all, but it is my answer. 
Don't it stink? LOL. MT blooper in there - the same one I make EVERY TIME. nm

I make lunch ahead of time and
my child has never complained about the bread being hard. Maybe because we use 100% whole wheat and it is already kind of dry? I have just never heard that complaint from anyone
I make lunch right after clearing up dinner and that way if we all oversleep by accident, at least its one less thing to have to worry about. We have enough stress in the morning.
I guess it is time to make a stand...
I just received my first subscription via E-mail to Advance Health Magazine.
CAN YOU BELIEVE THEY ACTUALLY HAD TWO ADVERTISEMENTS IN IT FOR HIRING INDIA MTs?
These are about 1/4 of a page size. One is from CBAY, which is Spheris, which is their 100% India company. Bragging a 30% decrease in costs to hospitals.
This not only threatens American MTs with losing jobs outright, but it also UNDERCUTS us. This is why we are making less money, less benefits, and needing to work harder.
I sent an E and cancelled immediately. Actually, I had been considering it for a while because of a bit percentage of their Medical Transcription articles are pro- undercutting American MTs, anyway, just like AAMT.
In my opinion, WE ARE BEING SOLD-OUT, AND BEING SOLD-OUT BY AAMT as they push harder and harder to make money any way they can, even by supporting Indian MTs, who are probably being told they "have" to join their organization...
They have been trying to force American MTs to become certified to fill their pockets and position themselves for the future as a monopoly. However, it seems American MTs are not as easily led as in India, so they flip-flopped. If you can't beat them, join them, right?
I am so disgusted. Last month they had an article from someone encouraging companies to hire American MTs and I was so hopeful, but this made me sick, to get it in my E-mail.
Time for me to make a stand. My job is worth fighting for and I need it...
Anybody make less than $12,000/year, part time - sm
I know at just part time (minimum 25 hrs a week) I won't be pulling in a ton of $, but I thought it would be a little more than that. Am I alone?
I make $2-3/hr (we are ICs paid for talk time only)
We are ranked. If you aren't in the top ran you do not get as many calls.
I wrote out a longer message but for some reason it didn't post.
Maybe it's time to push for legislation to make
.
If I worked full time I would make
at least $40,000 per year at my job. I only work part because just tired of working all the hours I have in the past. The majority of my work is VR (about 95%) and straight but am fast. I don't have a lot put in Expanders but do well over 3000 lines per day total.
If I worked full time I would make
almost $35,000 a year, made more than that in the 80s, just do not want to work full anymore.
Many sites make additions to better their site all the time without
doing anything out of the ordinary. MTStars always strives to provide better service.

I would quit. I work part time and only make about
$250 a week. Just having become a grandma would influence my decision! I can't keep my hands off the little one! 1K a week would suite me just fine! To bad I don't play the lottery.
Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

Happens all the time. Make phone calls for more definite action. nm

Take the time to make a list for a day of all the common editing tasks you do.
That should give you a good start for productive macros, then start making macros for those odd circumstances. BTW, Instant Text is great for handling these types of tasks. You can run your macros with a short form that makes sense to you or you can create "command" entries that make corrections--meaning that you can lump a whole bunch of keyboard shortcut commands into one entry. This is a great feature if you're queasy about creating macros.
I think it is the same type of file, so rename it and replace your autocorrect file with your DQS us

Help..I lost my word file. How can I retreive a file that has been changed? sm
I was working on a large file and had saved it in Word. I then went back to work on the file and hit a key that made the page go blank. When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you
Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.

...with your user.aco file. Save your autocorrect file to somewhere else. nm

You can save the SH file in a text file and import to IT that way. sm
You may have to do some cleanup in the SH text file, but it sure would be faster than re-entering them all manually.
File taxes under the name on file w Social Security....
Name on W2 doesn't have to match, but your tax return has to match SS records. They don't want your marriage license or anything else. Did that for 13 years as instructed by IRS. Didn't have to change it with SS until state changed rules requiring drivers license to match SS records. Still use my maiden name in some limited circumstances.
I *only* make $40K a year for full time work. Now I find that isn't decent is or fair?

an .exe file is not a voice file
I'm no techie, but it sounds like they might've sent the wrong file by mistake. Or could it be a program you need for testing/working for them that they sent? What is the name of the file (if it is something you can say here)?
Well then, don't start at the beginning, start in

yes! like the large font

Yes, in our bedroom, large though 27 x 12 - sm
We plan to build though in about 3 years (have some property)...getting a home office then....either a separate room or a room off the bedroom, but my own space anyway. Can't wait!
Thanks! The 16" look so small and the 20" so large! nm

I have 2 - one large, one small
My first was a very nice rose in the upper-inner quadrant of my left breast. I thought about it for 17 years before I did it. It kind of felt like going to the GYN when I had it do. The guy was very professional and let me catch my breath from time to time. The more fill-in work, the more painful. The more it is just an outline, the less painful.
The other is something private but special to me to honor my kids on my lower back, but above the bikini line. That was much more painful but different guy and it went much faster as I cussed a lot more with fewer breaks.
If I ever get another one it will be a circle on top of the sternum with the leters DNR inside!
