On the bathing with child issue down below,
why have all of the posts been deleted that didn't see anything wrong with bathing with your own child? I posted a couple of messages and they are gone, as well as the other posters who said they didn't see anything wrong with it?
Go to NBC10.com - Our local news has "Wednesday's Child" which is a child for adoption.
Every Wednesday they introduce a child who needs a home and a family. There should be some information there as these kids are up for adoption.

Hope that helps!
WRONG! A child that has a fear of discipline = a well behaved child.
I have a beautiful, intelligent 11 year old daughter that hasn't had a spanking in 6 or 7 years and probably only 3 her entire life. She is very well behaved and I get compliments on her behavior constantly. When she does get out of line all I have to say is, "Shall I call your father?" Call it what you want, it works. She respects and obeys me and her father. Why??? For fear of the facing the consequences of misbehaving. Having a total lack of fear or respect for authority is exactly what's wrong with Generation X/kids today. I turned out just fine as did my siblings. Why?? Because my parents took "time out" to bust our a$$es whenever we got out of line.
Is that clear enough for you???
Is this a semantics issue or is it a you versus frustrated issue?
Which ever it is, if your feeling superior on a board makes your day go on ahead. I am sure frustrated knows what she is doing and now so does her boss. I am also sure that in the future frustrated with think twice about how she words every sentence perfectly so that you can perceive it correctly. After all, that is what she would rather be doing than kissing her little daughter. NOT.
Good for you frustrated, for handling it in a professional manner. For the other MTs on here who need to get a life, well, maybe they shouldn't bother since feeling superior here seems to suit well. JMHO.
It isn't a Smartype issue it is a Word issue
On the Word toolbar at the top, click on Tools, then Autocorrect, then check the box that says "capitalize first letter of sentence." That will do it for you.

Get a lawyer
In some states this is illegal and after you turn in your resignation or are fired there is a set number of days employers have to pay up last checks or go to court. Check on this in your areas. Call the Department of Employement in your state or hers and complain in writing. If you all can find a lawyer who is a good person and truly wants to help you (my daugher found one like that and he even returned her check with a nice note that stated he enjoyed helping her and that was the only fee he needed as he had heard stuff for years about the company in question and was honored to help someone out against an employer without integrity - I swear this is true, so look around you. There are some really nice lawyers if you look). If you all have to pay one maybe you could all chip in and file a class action suit. Hold onto all equipment and refuse to release it to her until you are paid and hopefully you have computers, etc. People like that do not deserve for us to work for them. Everyone should stop typing immediately and get a real job. Let her figure out how to get the work done in turn. Maybe you could turn your friends on to her clients and they could offer their services at a discounted price. I hope the witch goes to the poor house herself. She is like a black eye on the transcription business. Keep in touch and let us know how you are making out.
You need a LAWYER ! - nm

go see a lawyer NOW sm
I wouldn't wait any longer. When did you give her this ultimatum? Today is Wednesday. I would see a lawyer ASAP or call the police and file charges against her NOW. IMO. Like others said that's giving her time to file bankruptcy. I doubt that she has $16,000. Writing bad checks is a crime. I live in Ohio and we just had an ex-football player convicted of writing a bad check for a car and that was just for $13,000.
Did you get lawyer to do this?
Questions: Similar predicament. Did you go to small claims court?
Did you secure services of a lawyer? How did you do it? Good for you, you go girl!
No lawyer. sm
Did it myself, as they lived in my area. Court personnel were very helpful.
lawyer?
You might want to ask a lawyer about that - someone who specializes in business law. Many will talk to you for a half hour or so as part of their probono work. The definition of a business license is that you own and operate a business - if you are working IC then you are NOT an owner, you are working for someone just not as an employee of theirs. The phrasing gets confusing which is why I suggest you talk to a lawyer. You can probably stop spending all that money on licenses!
Someone else mentioned an IC license, my state does not require one but some do so the laywer can point that to you as well. Technically you are an employee, just like that person at wal-mart who is stocking the shelves - the difference is you don't pay taxes out of your check, you pay them in one lump at the end of the year. The IRS doesn't like to wait until the end of the year so they try to scare you into doing what they want - buy a business license and spend more money than you need to.
I'm not saying you are wrong, the laws may be different where you are, but I would make an appoitment with a lawyer and find out what the law says - it may be the best spent 30 minutes of your career :)
For your protection, I would definitely get a lawyer
especially if they're going to hire one.
You could forfeit your rights to the property if you don't respond properly and in a timely manner and in order to do that you need a professional to examine all the legal paperwork.
My neighbor went through a somehat similar situation with her house...but too long to go into here.
I agree with getting a lawyer...
...if those were indeed his words that they were letting you go because of "your age" that is BLATANTLY age discrimination. I believe the last time I checked that was not legal. Hey, maybe someday you would OWN THEM!
re: lawyer woes
He can in fact charge you for the phone calls (consult) about the car, but not the service he failed to perform regarding this.
As far as the car title goes, he can request in the divorce that your husband sign it over to you (possibly arguing that you paid for it, etc.), but I don't think unless a judge orders it, your ex has to even sign it over, unfortunately. In my case, the car wasn't yet paid for and was in my husband's name. He suggested that we go and get the title/loan transferred into my name if this is what we agreed on. Technically speaking, however, the loan was in his name and if he so chose, he could have taken the car. That's why I say a judge has to be the one to order the transfer should the ex refuse.
I'd definitely confront the lawyer and ask him why the charges when he failed to even act on your request. That's bull**** in my opinion. I'm quite sure he's made a good deal of money off this already. Good luck.
Complaint? What about a lawyer?
But why do you need a sample of a complaint? Write a letter explaining the details and mail it to the administrators of the hospital and copy it to the same people at the headquarter address (CEO). Ask for a response and mail it certified with a receipt requested.
Does anyone know a good lawyer?
I am faced with my clients demanding I use the "AAMT" line count which is characters divided by 65. This cuts my income by 33% from my usual gross line. They came right out and said AAMT line. Even though AAMt has disavowed this, they put the seed in the minds of the powers that be and I want compensation from those who did me wrong. Please let me know if anyone knows of a good lawyer. TIA.
Actually, with a good lawyer one
that they are working for from home, whether employee or IC. There is an option on your homeowner's insurance (? all companies or some) that would cover you for injury incurred while working at home. They probably just want to eliminate the possibility of being sued. You can't obtain workers comp insurance in the sense you're thinking though if you don't have employees to cover. You can carry a personal policy that would eliminate their responsibility. I've never run across it though when working IC. I am covered though by my homeowners for such.
Call a lawyer ASAP!!
You can get advice from an attorney free for the first consultation--just make sure attorney specializes in land purchases and sales so you're given good info. You also need to go to your court house or whereever your land deed is recorded and find out what is required by the court for a legal sale of that land, get copies of everything pertaining to it, check on the taxes to make sure they are all paid or not. Lawyers do take payment plans. Don't wait on this one--if you don't want to be homeless. When it comes to greed and some families, they could treat you worse than strangers. You don't pay your house payment to them, do you? What could happen is if this is a majority party contract--meaning only a certain number of owners are required for the sale to go through--that would be on your note, they could then charge you land rent--an exorbitant amount--to make you move, so see a lawyer ASAP and take all documentation with you. Everything.
Good Luck. I am really sorry this is happening to you.
For heaven's sake, where is your lawyer?
Your divorce is final in 2 weeks, and you're asking this super important question to MTs on a message board? PLEASE ask your lawyer.
Crooked lawyer question
I need some thoughts as to what to do with this, if anything. I filed for divorce this January....or so I thought. I paid my lawyer (who might I first say is reputable in this town) the money and was expecting him to get the ball rolling. In March or April or so, I get papers from my ex-husband, saying HE's sueing ME for divorce. So, I call up my lawyer and ask why I hadn't filed first. He'd apparently set the case aside and forgot about me, and those were almost his exact words. So, I let that drop because I needed someone to represent me. When I first filed the papers, I MADE SURE I told him I wanted my ex's name off the car title, because he likes to take the title down to the pawn shop. So, I mentioned that then, then I was worried about it again sometime over the course of these months and called to rediscuss it with him, then, right before the hearing, I made sure that he remembered about it. Fine, no problem. This took place in July. Since I still hadn't gotten a divorce decree, I took myself down to the courthouse and had to purchase myself a copy (yet another thing the lawyer didn't do), and lo and behold, the car isn't listed. I know as a fact we discussed this, because each time, I had to go out and get the VIN # off the car. I can't get his name off without it being in the decree or having him sign off, which he won't do.
I checked BBB, and the company isn't on there, but neither can I find any of the attorneys in my hometown. Like I said, he's very well known around town, and it's a small town, so you know just about everybody. I had to take out a loan to get the divorce going in the first place and while I think I'd like to ask for my money back and deserve it, I know I won't get it.
Anybody have any ideas? Should I report him to SOMEONE? Should I keep pestering him until I have what I want? Or should I just forget it and move on?
You should have your retainer refunded and get a new lawyer. nm

Lawyer tells you how to outsource
Please don't send this to the gab board as this pertains to US, the US MQ employees:
Either contact a lawyer or, if meets
criteria, file in Small Claims Court.
From their help section
Keyword: any_keyword
Text to Type: This is {@KEY Ctrl+B}bold{@KEY Ctrl+B}.
You can use the same concept to add any formatting codes to your ShortHand text.
PLUS I DID try the help section (sm)
in Word AND I have a copy of Word For Dummies (which I am sure you would think is quite appropriate) BUT I did not think to look up SELECT TEXT. I looked up DELETING text which is what I thought I wanted to do not thinking that I had to SELECT if FIRST.
I said at the outset that I was Word challenged and if that annoys you then just ignore my post.
Have you had a C-section?
I don't know about you, but I took the full eight weeks off that is alloted for a c-section. I was in incredible pain. I can't imagine only taking two weeks off. Then again, I also worked another job that actually gave me disability checks so I guess I'm in a different boat altogether. I also had a tubal ligation at the same time. I was in the hospital for almost a week and I coudn't walk for at least a month without severe pain. I guess I'm just a wimp. LOL.
C-section
Hee-hee! I have a funny one, too. My dictator says routinely "I sent the patient to see the breast-feeding nurses." All I can visualize is nurses sitting in a room, breast-feeding!
Don't you think a lawyer would be calling you??? Sounds like a scam!!!

Medical Malpractice lawyer work
I've read here before about some MTs who work for RNs transcribing their notes for medical malpractice lawyers, particularly in So Cal. If anyone out there can give me more info such as need, what to charge, how to find, etc, I would be so grateful---I'm an MT/editor/quality auditor with 10 years' experience needing to make more money out of my skills.
Thanks!
You don't have to hire a lawyer. Write the letter yourself, but
make sure you send it "return receipt requested" and give a specific date payment needs to be received by.
There is a medicolegal section on
the job board . . . rarely any new jobs there, but if you go to the Job Seeker's Board and then Job Bank, it is one of the choices there.
Two weeks, c-section.
No one else to cover for me. I took it slow and accounts were patient with me--it helps that one was an ob/gyn. :)
found this in the help section--sm
You might have done one of the following:
Inserted a manual page break (page break: The point at which one page ends and another begins. Microsoft Word inserts an "automatic" (or soft) page break for you, or you can force a page break at a specific location by inserting a "manual" (or hard) page break.). Switch to normal view (normal view: A view that shows text formatting and a simplified page layout. Normal view is convenient for most editing and formatting tasks.), select the manual page break, and then press DELETE.
Set a pagination option. The following pagination options (Keep lines together, Keep with next, or Page break before) control where automatic page breaks occur.
To remove the pagination formats from text, select the paragraph following the unwanted page break, click Paragraph on the Format menu, and then click the Line and Page Breaks tab. If necessary, clear the Keep lines together, Keep with next, and Page break before check boxes.
Inserted a section break (section break: A mark you insert to show the end of a section. A section break stores the section formatting elements, such as the margins, page orientation, headers and footers, and sequence of page numbers.). The Next page, Even page, or Odd page section break automatically breaks the page.
To prevent a section break from breaking the page, click in the section (section: A portion of a document in which you set certain page formatting options. You create a new section when you want to change such properties as line numbering, number of columns, or headers and footers.) immediately following the section break, and then click Page Setup on the File menu. Click the Layout tab, and then click Continuous in the Section start box.
Inserted a column break. A column break inserted in the last column of a page will act as a page break. Select the column break, and then press DELETE.
There is an entire section on this

Anybody hired a lawyer to get money owed from MTSO?
I have given MTSO 7 days to finally pay an old invoice but still nothing. Has anybody ever hired a lawyer to write a demand letter and how much did it cost? I believe I have to send demand letter before filing in small claims. The invoice is for just over $200 so don't want to spend a lot of money and be out even more $$.
thanks.
Is there a new format on Forum Section
or am I the only one experiencing this....
about two or three days ago, I've noticed that when I go to the main board, other forum or topic options were not listed on the blue portion of the page, and it feels weird to go back to the home page every time I want to change topic/section.
Get Turbo Tax, it has a whole section for this and asks you if you have this, this, that...sm
By using this I found 2 deductions I had no idea I could take.

Going back to work after c-section
I returned to work two weeks after my c-section working 6 hours per day. I however made sure to get out of the chair frequently so as to not get so stiff from sitting for so long, which does happen so soon after a c-section. I wouldn't go back to soon though, as it can be very stressful with a new baby and a job to tend to on top of it all.
According to the Answers.com section of Monster.com
"Dr. Phil McGraw won a football scholarship and played as a linebacker for the University of Tulsa, but when he was injured he quit and transferred to Midwestern State University. He graduated with a B.A. in psychology in 1975, and went on to get his PhD. from the University of North Texas in 1979. He is also a pilot, with a multi-engine rating."
. . . . and what are your educational credentials, my dear?
I use a plastic storage bin and cut a section out for him to ...sm
get in and out. I do not use the lid. It has nice, high sides, room to turn around and I usually try to keep 3 inches of liter in it.
I have 2 other 'regular' size cats who use the standard liter boxes just fine but my big guy only uses his big, roomy custom box. I also replace it about every 5-6 months. I wish you and your kitty all the best!
Please let us know what the vet says.
Either create it in the header section of
page set up or use a hard return after it and a page break at the end. Center text below the hard return but above the page break and leave a regular line at the bottom of the page. I would then copy it and paste it however many times I needed a report for then go back to the first and start filling in.
Hope this helps.
In Word, under the Tools section there
is a place for language set. Have you tried this??

Do u think a lawyer or accountant or doc has "QA" person - nope, if they screw up... they scr
As an MT, we know what our job is period. WE produce a report at 98% quality or better. This should be done without QA as we should take pride in our work and make sure it is correct. Of course, then again, we are "tested" for a job. Other professionals are not. I refuse to be. If a company mentions a "test" that is a big turn off for me.
Bottom line - know what you are doing and complete an accurate report (within 98% for human error rate which we all have) or learn another field... not a hard concept
Section 8 housing. It's a federal program through HUD.
Google it "Section 8" housing to verify.
Try melatonin over-the-counter in your vitamin section.
Doctors I worked with got me hooked on it. They said they used it themselves. Doctors know the side effects of chemical drugs and steer away from them when it comes to taking drugs. Anyway do a search on Google about melatonin. It may work for you and it really has no side effects for me, like the grogginess prescription drugs give you the morning after you take a pill to sleep.
I was working PT at home one week after my C-section and
probably working FT by third week, though can't remember exactly. I did have a flexible schedule and I had a very good baby. I worked where I could and weekends.
They are in the roll section ( I have seen them with the bakery rolls too)
