Maybe its your resolution?
its fine for me.
NY resolution
All I want for new Year's is a brand new job.
My resolution is...
My New Years resolution is to remember birthdays and anniversaries better. I've never been one to make a huge deal out of birthdays/anniversaries and I'm terrible at remembering when they are so my resolution is to change that. I set up a little system for myself so that I can remember ahead of time to send a card or gift depending on who it is so hopefully this will help me out. I can understand the weight resolution but since that's always my resolution I figured I'd try something different for a change. 
resolution
The other day I was chatting with someone I have "known" for several years through a social chat room. She asked me what I did for a living and I told her I was a medical transcriptionist. She said "what is that?" so I explained briefly. She asked if I worked at home and I told her yes. She replied that she had a daughter who was looking for work and she wondered if that would work for her. Ok, maybe it's just me, but I am really tired of ppl thinking they can do MT work because they want to work from home. My resolution for 2009 is to not tell people that I work from home. I realize this is ridiculous but I just get really frustrated at times. How about you?
Temporary resolution
I scanned the SOAP sheet and can print it out (and it looks very good) and then use the sheets I have printed to print the first page of transcription on and the office is okay with this, at least for now. The MA will have to transfer the info from the original SOAP sheet header/template to the one I return with the transcription. I feel bad that I am causing the MAs more work but we all agreed that this seems to be the simplest way to go. It will actually save them money not having to purchase the sheets from the printing co. any longer at least. :) Money always talks, ya know. :D
My new year's resolution is to ... (s/m)
quit my crappy on-site transcription job, where I have worked for far too long and been treated like dirt for too many years, and take a job with a national so I can work at home and get a little peace & quiet.
Not resolution but appearance--this is what you need. sm
You don't want to full with the resolution of your computer as that is based on the type of video card inside your computer and you could end up having to reinstall your video software. I interpreted your message to mean that you had a smaller moonitor before you got the 19 inch one, so your icons, lettering, etc., are much smaller now that you went to the larger monitor, which will happen.
To fix this so you can work without straining your eyes, right click on your desktop, choose Properties, then choose Appearance. You will see Scheme and it may have Windows Standard or Windows Classic selected. You will need to select either Windows Standard Extra Large or Classic Extra Large for now--so you can work. Later, you can customize the settings exactly the way you want them for the icon bars, menu bars, text in your documents, etc. I hope this helps!
Changed the resolution....sm
I found a website that said to try increasing the resolution on the monitor. Since mine was at the highest available resolution already, I decided to go down in resolution....And so....voila....my desktop now fits on my whole monitor screen. However, now my resolution is less, and so everything is blurry.
So fixed the main problem, now another....but at least everything is on the screen now!!
why would the resolution change without someone changing it?
nm
I truly hope that you get some resolution to this. ((Hugs to you, my dear.))

slide the little slider where it says screen resolution. sm
you may want to play with it to get the size you want. i have mine at 1280 by 1024 pixels.
Restore System or lower resolution did it for me sm
I got a new monitor that wouldn't work in Word so I set it to the old, smaller resolution and it works in Word just fine now. On another computer Restore System fixes absolutely everything, saves my life over and over again!
You could just enlarge all type in your monitor resolution. nm
nm
mine is fine...sounds like a monitor resolution thing--
or perhaps, did you download an antivirus update or something. maybe your video card acting up?? just suggestions.
Screen Resolution/Font/Screen Percentage
My eyes are tired all the time. I usually have my monitor set at 800 x 600 pixels and use Bookman at 10 font in Word at 111% in the normal layout. What might be a better viewing screen setting to use?
We met in high school. My high school sweetheart
introduced us in a discussion over Ford versus Chevy versus Dodge. I used to race my Dodge Coronet with oldstyle 318 V-8 engine against the guys on the back roads and old highways. High school boyfriend had a Chevy truck. DH had a Ford Fairlane and later an AMC Javelin that just made me swoon. We didn't actually start dating until three years later, and my old high school boyfriend was a bit surprised at that since he introduced us.
How about a High Five??!!

high 5!!
...Right on! I think many people who are gay bashers are really terrified of the unknown, terrified because they link gay people with sexual criminal behavior - pedophiles, rapists, you name it. I would not expect less of a gay person than I would a straight person when it comes to character and ethics. It is sad to see how many people are terrified of gays because they believe they have an "agenda" - out to turn the world gay!! haha!
It should be pointed out here that many gays have desires and needs just like us straight people - want to be loved, want to belong to someone, want to be committed to one person, want a home and family just like us. That should tell us something, right? Hey, for that matter, there are lot of straight people who will never want to settle down, love sleeping around, live a promiscious lifestyle, but it is only when that occurs in a gay person that it is magnified.
People can be so naive. Throughout time there have been gays in every walk of life - high ranking powerful politicians, ministers, high ranking military men, etc. Some just choose to keep it a secret. Just as I expect my straight friends to have character and ethics, so do my gay friends.
Judge people on their character, their morals, their ethics, not whether they are gay or straight.
high 5!!
...I knew there was a reason I liked you... fellow Leo
P.S. - coincidentally just before I came to the board I just popped in a CD of the 5th Dimensions - remember "Age of Aquarius? That's too funny!

*High-Five*!!! LOL!

Very high indeed!
I've never heard of anyone making more than .02-.03/cpl off of their subs. I'd say for you to either make some rules (times they can call, etc) and define exactly what you are willing to do for them. If they say no and you really don't care for the account any longer, then just let it go. If you really do want to keep it, the only thing I can suggest is to concentrate on how much YOU are making (and if it's worth it) instead of concentrating on how much THEY are making.
50% to me is very high
I could not look in the mirror if I took 50%, even beauticians when they used to work in a shot got 70/30 and they used the equipment of the shop. If she handles everything but the invoicing I feel you are taking advantage of someone and hopefully you can live with yourself and look in the mirror. I usually do 80/20 but then I pick up the tapes and deliver them to the IC, proof the work and invoice out, do all contact with the account. But to each their own.
wow... is it that high?
I'm making 10 cpl with my hospital and 12 CPL for my doctor's Office
which is 65 character line including spaces
However my office is now deciding they want to pay me a different way since we are completely switching systems and there is no way to do a line count... and now I HAVE NO idea how much to charge because he is thinking by the "minute". well I make almost ALMOST $2.00 a minute and haven't had a raise in seven years, so I'm really at a loss of what to do.
Oh I work for companies in California. Do you live in FL or CA or I don't understand... i mean when I look at the big companies they offer 7 or 8 CPL... am I missing something?! LOL
good luck :)
Okay HIGH FIVE!! ROFL

it could be due to the high turnover,
miserable platform, and low pay on the VR programs, and just generalized problems in the company, couldn't it?
with the gas prices going sky high and, therefore, (sm)
the prices of food and other items more than likely going to skyrocket, what is everyone doing to plan for this?
Wow! and I thought $3.19 was high. This is
insane. Thank goodness I've been working at home for the past year. My hubby has been at a job 3/4 a mile up the street for a year now too. A year ago we were both out of town and putting 100 combined miles a day just for commuting to work. I cringe to think how much that would cost us.
Good thing hubby can walk to work. Motor blew in our 2001 Ford ZX2. Maybe it was a good thing? Anybody out there need non-motor parts? Four brand new tires, new power steering pump, new struts, bearings, front and rear brakes, tie rod ends, fuel filter and windshield all in the past 6 months. One thing we forgot was the timing chain and that went and ruined the engine. 
Don't really need a car for work and I'm serious considering not even bothering to buy another one right now.
High Level 4
I don't know if we're allowed to post it or not on here, but it's very decent for the MT world, plus they supposedly do raises periodically without you having to beg.
He's in high school and STILL has to have
PB&J with grape jelly? Oh, please don't tell me that! I was hoping my son would outgrow his pickiness once he hit puberty. That's what the pediatricians and nutritionists told me! They said they had never seen a teenaged boy decline food. My son is SOOO picky! I call him a carbivore because he doesn't like meats or vegetables. He's got this taste/texture thing going on. My in-laws said that I was coddling him, so one of them tried to make him eat peas and beef stroganoff while watching him for me one day. He ate a couple of bites and, well, let's just say that nobody has tried to "force" the kid to eat since then. I don't let them watch him any more either. My mother says it's revenge because I was the same way as a kid.
I had no idea pay was ever that high
When you were up that high?
No, this isn't too high. Maybe too low. We're in the
I'm supposed to set aside 33% plus at least 7.5% (the other 7.5% is deductible) for self-employment taxes = total 40.5% of my pay goes to taxes. If I didn't have my DH get extra taken out of his paycheck ($75 a week), I'd have to pay this in quarterly estimates, because if you end up owing too much compared to last year, they will penalize you. I've read too many horror stores on MT boards of MTs who didn't pay their taxes or set money aside. I'd rather pay as I go.
It's probably not high, generally, but
if you're a single person with those expenses and work only as an MT, even for two more companies these days, it's HIGH.
Are you at a high altitude? (sm)
If you're at a high altitude, use Crisco in place of butter in your recipe.
my first job out of high school - sm
I went to try to find a job at a local hospital. They gave me a typing test, had the word "toxicology" in it, and they hired me on the spot! Since then, I have never had to test in my life, and I have been doing this for 30+ years.
Now which one of you is high maintenance?
LOL
I too have high QA scores but the QA
percentage is killing me (over 30%). When work is low I am reluctant to take on another acct because once again all would go to QA and affect that percentage. I have decided to just type and not worry about my QA percentage for now, just continue to type and send quality work (of course when there is work).
Doc said CO2 88.4 - isn't that kinda high?

With all these high IQ scores....
we have some serious underachievers here!!!!!!!!
Wow, that's really high for electric
We have total electric (includes heat, air, and all appliances), and our bill is around $200 in the winter, $100 in summer. We get a break on the rate for having total electric. I feel lucky......
I think 8 cpl is high for a newbie. I mean
there's so much more training you need!
91 with HIGH humidity in PA...ug.
:(
High bills
In Georgia, it's not unheard of for the power bill to exceed $300 during summer. In fact, it's expected. I can't believe the posters with two-digit bills. My water bill is $65! Everything around here has gone up in the last year. My doing MT was supposed to be for extras and fun money, but it's not turning out to be so.
Can you get high speed?
That's VERY expensive for dial up. Most high speed services cost about that.
My speed is really high but this job is not what
it was years ago. With being an engineer, it would seem that the money should really be good there. I have done this now for over 30 years and if I had to do now and raise a family, I would have to work more than 1 job, possibly 3-4. It is really not the money maker it was once, not at all. The work is not easy, not just a typist job, in fact after all these years I still am always trying to make sure my QA is not lacking, otherwise your job is lacking as in gone. My speed is around 140 wpm but the speed is not what is really important. I found it extremely difficult starting out and trained for over a year inhouse before I ever earned production. This would not be a job I would recommend now unless you just want to stay at home with a child, do part time, retired, in other words where you want to put in time and really don't need to make a living doing it.
Oh, one of those high rollers?

$10.00 per page is too high.
I would say 12-14 cpl is fair (65 characters with spaces). This is easy enough to do in Word. Just as Patti states, he will give you a lot of letters and OP notes. Make templates. Your average would be anywhere from $2.00 per page up to $4.00 per page depending on how lengthy of a dictator he is and what he likes in his dictation as far as headings are concerned. Also, you may want to consider providing him with letterhead that you've created in Word if he's not picky about that. So then when you do your count, you can count that as well. Every little bit boosts your line count, but you DO NOT want to price him at $10.00 per page. If you go with 12 cpl, you'll be fine, and then down the road you can bump it up if you think you need to. JMO. By the way, I do have a few of my own accounts, so I do speak from experience. 
That's exactly right. TAKE THE COBRA, even though the $$ is high.
RE: With Vonage you need high-
I have high speed DSL with Embarq so I may try Vonage if it will work with a Dictaphone. The only thing that worries me is moving my phone service and phone number to Vonage. I am not sure of how I would still keep the DSL with Embarq but no longer have phone serivce with them. Also, I am sure they will cancel my DSL if they find out I am using Vonage on it.
