Cannot legally share - software pirating

No, the BOS is copyrighted intellectual property. If you make copies to hand out for free, then that is software piracy (fancy digital way of saying stealing). This is why Medquist Technical will want to verify that you have removed the download from your personal computer if you use one rather than one that belongs to Medquist and will be returned to them when you quit. Medquist bought licenses to enable that so-called free download for employees. By that I mean that just because the employees didn't pay for it does not mean that it was really free for the company.

Congrats, girl, and get your share of any money that you share before he wipes you out. nm

Share, share, I've been looking for some time...sm
sending out resumes gallor, have great experience, but they sound like clones of each other in what they offer, yet what they want is it all!!! I'm so discouraged, in the depression boat myself! They want you to commit to FT, new equip, DSL, on and on!!!
But they came here LEGALLY, and actually
WORSE like this particular group is doing. Ever driven down a street of apartments that has gone Mexican? It's TRASHED.
I would go after him legally sm
if I had to in order to get my money and have that report changed. That could very well affect you in the future. These doctors. The longer I do this the more I hate Western medicine.
Not much to offer, but legally I don't even
think his mother could get his $ before you, his wife. Something sounds fightable there. Sounds like your hubby has a lot of growing up to do. When a guy marries, he should lessen the relationship with his mom, and transfer his love, attention, devotion, loyalty to his wife. As long as his parents are willing participants, doesn't sound like you have much of a chance. I had been in a vaguely similar situation - my husband's controlling parents were ruining our marriage - they actually wanted us to divorce due to their own control issues. We separated, I moved to the other end of the state. My husband quickly followed, and once out of his parents' WEB, we were able to focus on our marriage, and he was able to see the negative influence of his parents. I'm sorry you're going thru this. PLEASE keep us posted!
Legally they have no right to ask you - just give
...
Legally they cannot pay below minimum
wage. Anyone making below that should check with their state government and make sure that if they do not make minimum wage that this is rectified. Even at the Q, they have to make up the difference to minimum wage.
Not true. You CAN legally use ULD for transcription. There are several sm
options out there including Comcast, Vonage, AT&T Small Business Advantage and more. If you do your research and stop spouting without checking your facts, then people would not chase their tails after bad information.
two jobs in one company, is it legally possible? sm
is it possible to work in a company with two jobs at different shifts? like for example, I work as a Transcriptionist in the surgery dept and then there's an opening for a different position in a different department. can i apply for that job without jeopardizing the other? Can they accept me if I applied for that job? need advices. thanks a lot!
Legally working at home
In some places it is still technically illegal to work at home. If there is a strong union presence, that may be the case because they want to prevent non-unionized piecework jobs. They equate it, rightly or wrongly, with sweatshop labor.
In some places, you will have to go before the town planning commission and notify all neighbors within a certain radius of what your business is, especially in terms of noise, smells and traffic. In essence, you will be asking for a change in zoning.
If you live in a condo complex, check your covenants/bylaws to see if you can work at home.
So, yes, I would start with city hall if I lived in an incorporated area or with the county clerk if I lived in an unincorporated area. It is different everywhere, and some places really haven't come into the electronic age. Some of the laws still on the books belong more to 1907 than to 2007.
In my area, I don't remember the business license costing anything (although I suspect it did - I can't image the county not looking for money), but I remember I had to have a *doing business as* notice printed for 3 consecutive weeks in the local paper. That wasn't expensive either - they had a set fee for it.
No he doesn't. Believe what you want, the truth will come out legally.
g
if you made less than 600 dollars they don't legally have to claim it.
Just found that out also as last year my IC job only started in October and didn't make enough for taxes. This year will be different though. My employer said consider it free money. Can't argue with that. Checked with H&R Block and they confirmed it.
Yeah, you're right. Who cares who licenses your software? Heck, I use all pirated software anyw
why pay for anything, right?
Except that is AGAINST THE LAW!!!
Betsy - used to be my name till I legally changed to Elizabeth.
Christina, I would not send voice files unless they legally
belong to you and are in your voice. It is against HIPAA regulations to share medical files. If the hospital or physician or company finds out, you would be held accountable if a patient's private information is given out to another party.
A friend of mine got one and she is finding that some of her software, specifically her ISP software

Today is different and you cannot fight companies who LEGALLY can offshore work.
So all Americans refuse to buy goods, shop at stores, or work for companies who offshore. That leaves a mess. Do you realize a lot of American companies are actually owned by foreigners? Get real and move into 2005. You are going to spend a lot of time boycotting once you do the research. I doubt you will be able to shop or work at all.
Not legally. In my state they can't give any meds, can hand the pill
bottle to the patient, but can't actually give them meds.
Maybe you are thinking of CRNA?
I'm already legally blind and I think all this staring at a screen is making them worse! sm
I'll look into these computer glasses you speak of. Wearing glasses rather than contacts really did help.. I don't know how or why, but it did. Maybe the combination of antiglare screen and antiglare lenses?
My monitor's screen is supposed to be antiglare, but I still am thinking one of the antiglare hook-ons might be helpful. Only problem with that is I have an 'old fashioned' monitors (the kind that are huge and weigh a ton) and not one of the flat screens so not sure if I'll find one to fit.
If u need server software, try guild ftp. If just user software
then try cuteftp, coffeecupftp, or wsftp. They don't charge a line rate and I believe guildftp server software is still free.
In some states, if buying house and married, both names are legally required to be on deed. (nm)

Cannot legally require you to commit time to them as an employee and then not pay you for that time.

Another big factor is software. If the software isn't
transcription friendly, it can really hurt your bottom line.
Otherwise, $1.20 per report is a pretty decent rate for radiology.
Good luck - hope it works out for you.
Please share...
Favorite small appliance. I have 2 jobs now, love my crock pot but am looking for something a little more versitile... Something I can throw everything into in the morning and just set it and forget it! Any suggestions? Thanks!
share
share any work ??
share
That is great pay. Where do you work. I read so many people who love where they are but yet no one shares the info. I have been looking the past few months but have yet to find one that starts out with a decent pay. I would have to take a cut in pay just to get more flexibility which I don't think is a fair trade.
Share what?
Our jobs that are limited as it is? So when we all lose our jobs to people in India, China, etc., can we assume you personally are going to share the money from what used to be our jobs with us so we can keep our homes and feed our families? I think not. Transcribe for your own damn doctors and leave the American patients to us.
yes please share with us !
Just had to share
Our Rottie had puppies Saturday morning!!!!! 11 in all, 6 girls and 5 boys. We lost a baby girl yesterday morning, but the rest are doing great. We're exhausted, but they're fine. They're sooooo cute.....
Yes, please share
info about this.
Share What?
There are a lot of claims by a lot of MTs that cpl is the only way to go, and claiming that they are being paid more than most astronauts, but being given a salary/hourly rate to be recognized as the professionals that we are would be nice. When I started out the main issue was understanding the content of what you were transcribing and it was expected that you kept updated on all new terminology, meds, etc. You definitely would not find a nurse or other professional agreeing to be paid by how many blood draws they do and yes, it does boil down to the same thing.
Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!
had to share, doc just said...sm
The patient was taped to the operating room..... Wish I could see that!
Let me share with you....
not really sure what you mean by the long-time MTs getting angry, maybe you can share- I didn’t have internet at all prior to 2004. OMG but made really big money years ago and has it ever dropped now days! But back to sharing… my grandkids who you know can show us all we need to know about the latest gadgets, computers, blackberries, whatever went with me up to my father's home. He was in his late 80s then. I asked the 14-year-old gdaughter to go in the bedroom and call someone for me. She went back but soon returned to where we were and called her brother, a 16-year-old with a puzzled look on her face. Finally the both of them came back into the living room and said they had no idea how to use granddaddys phone- it was a rotary. Laugh, laugh. See it is all when you grow up and with what.
yes PLEASE SHARE
We would all like to work for a great company to! Email me if you prefer.
Just have to share - sm
I have a discharge summary - the guy was in the hospital for a month. It's 42 minutes long. The doctor is dictating every consult that saw the patient every day, their impression, and then just reading the assessment and plan, numbering the recommendations, and then....."Thank you for allowing us to see this patient." Do they even think about what they're dictating???????
had to share this one!!
"She wil be put in an Aircast splint and with crutches and treated with Motrin 800 every 8 hours as needed for pain with food."

Like, I applied for coding and ended up being recruited as an MT (and they never DID fill the coding position as that department was undergoing "internal issues").
Although it is a major slam when you apply for clerical work you get pushed towards being part of the janitorial staff! Do you have very little MT experience? I could understand if they offered you something in medical records, but wow, that's quite a leap to think you'd want to wash dishes!

a local college has a job posted for an ESL instructor. Any takers?
had to share
ESL dictates, "MRS. So-and-so is a 10-year-old female." Might be able to be a MRS. in your country but not in the USA.
Could you please share
the name of this company? It sounds an awful lot like what Medquist is doing to us. Thanks in advance.
I think you and I share the same sm
sense of irony! I totally get where you are coming from... :)
How funny. I have my share as well and when I
was trying to break my boys of the habit of leaving their dirty clothes wherever they took them off, I wondered how much it would take.
I taught them to do their own laundry when they were about 11 or 12 and then I stopped doing it for them. They were in control of it; if they didn't get it done, they wore dirty clothes.
However, they had a bad habit of taking their socks off in the living room and leaving them there, or in the bathroom and leaving their clothes there. They had clothes baskets in their rooms and in the laundry room for that. I would ask them to pick up and it was always, "later" or "in a minute" but those times never came around.
Finally, I started telling them one time then when they went to bed or left the house and it was not done, I started collecting those things in an old shopping bag. Each night I would quietly put the bag in the trunk of my car. I mean this went on for a few days...quite a few. They had a tendency to wait until the weekend to do their laundry and I remember the frantic desperate search for their clothes. They couldn't find them! Hadd I done their laundry? Nooo. Had I seen their clothes in the bathroom or their socks in the living room? Nooo. They were accusing each other, even! Hahaha They had practically nothing left to wear. HAHAHA I finally told them to bring in the stuff I had in the trunk (of course, they delayed all day on doing that -- all day while they were whining about not finding their clothes and it could have been resolved earlier) and when they did, they had a few bags of dirty stinky laundry! Hahaha I told them next time, I would not store it in the trunk of the car but store it in the garbage dump. They have done pretty well since. On occasion I ask them to pick something up and they realize if it isn't, it goes out in the garbage without another word. Hahahaha
Please share which program your are using.
From what I have read, it seems that EditScript is the only VR program that seems to work quite well. I hope this is not the one you are using. Could you tell us which one?
Well, share in the wealth, how?nm

can you please share what you found out
That would be greatly appreciated.
Share your secret, PLEASE!
Who do you work for? I used to do that, but got a crappy account now. I miss those paychecks.
You have every right to be happy. I'm happy for you (and jealous LOL)!
Had to share this e-mail (sm)
Little Johnny says "Daddy, how was I born?"
Daddy says "Well, son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway. You see, your mom and I first got together in a chat room on MSN. Then, I set up a date via e-mail with your mom, and we first met at a cyber cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room where your mother agreed to download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a blessed little Pop-Up appeared and said You've Got Male!"
Let me share my dog story...
Our little girl was scared to death of animals!! Especially dogs. A dog showed up on our porch and we did everything we could think of to get rid of her, i.e. throwing shoes at her (that was my daughter's idea), shooing her away. We didn't feed her hoping she would move on to the neighbor's house. Anyway, she didn't leave....she adopted us! After a couple of days, my daughter became more comfortable with her (she finally stopped crying whenever the dog was in sight) and we fell in love with her. She is a real doll!! Needless to say, that was six years ago and the dog is still just as sweet as ever.
With that story told, have you called the game warden? They will come and get stray dogs. Maybe they can find out who owns her? Also, an area SPCA would take her. Just a thought. Good luck!!
Would you share the exact name -sm
of this keyboard? I'd like to find one with wrist rests like you describe. I have one that is split, but the wrist rests are quite right. TIA.
More about laptops, would you share?
What brand do you have? What specs, actual screen size, hard drive, RAM, ports? Do you have a parallel port for your foot pedal? Do you have a docking station? I'm looking and am curious what everyone else is using.
Care to share
