I called the 888 toll-free number and it WAS the National Do Not Call Registry. I do not find this to be a hoax! I will be asking all my friends and family to do this.
Thanks for the tip!

Maybe I sound that way, but didn't know (sm)
picking me up from the train station was too much to ask. I guess the joke is on me. And as much as I hate to get into the stepmother thing, I could never in a million years picture someone's real mother giving a reply as she did. I could also never imagine her saying that to one of her own kids or anyone else for that matter. I think it's totally rude! So I guess I just tell them I told you I was going to come and you couldn't pick me up from the train, end of story.
Didn't mean to sound that way
No, just meant that I would rather keep looking than to settle for lower standards. If that means I don't get that extra splurge at the end of the month, then it's worth it to me.
She didn't MAKE anything SOUND like anything.
Your perception is warped. YOU chose to interpret it in a different way than she intended. That's your comprehension level, not her playing cards. My goodness! It must be lonely up there on your pedestal telling everyone how perfect you are. Oh, you never made a mistake. You made all the "right" decisions. Blah, blah, blah. You must be really unhappy and bitter if that's all you can do is tell everyone how great you and your life are. What's the matter? Husband cheating on you? Erectile dysfunction? Evidently, something is terribly wrong in your life, or you wouldn't be here preaching and condemning other people. You would be out living your perfect life with your perfect husband and lack of kids.
Personally, I'm sick and tired of your crap showing up on these boards all the time. I don't care if I get banned for telling it like it is. It's worth it to not have to listen to you. If we parents and single mothers bother you so much, why don't you find the dried up, bitter, old crone boards to hang out on?
I didn't mean to sound touchy. You misunderstood and
whether or not you MEANT to reply to my post, you did. What else was I to think?!
I don't have all the answers but I was quite aware of that information already.
No offense taken by me! Just felt like you misunderstood, that's all!
Didn't meant for it to sound rude
I'm one of those people with lots of education; it just wasn't in the medical field, so I know about the learning curve. (Grin.) I just wanted to give you a heads up that my personal opinion is that you would be wasting your money investing in the courses to get into this business.
You are absolutely right. I am very lucky. I didn't sound too grateful but I am. nm

No hoax
I have seen it twice on Fox news on t.v., the official one out of New York. They said they are getting bombarded with phone calls about the number being wrong for that guy.
This is a hoax
Go to Snopes.com.
If you think this is a hoax....
You are sadly mistaken. Do you really think Acusis would notify everyone at once??? They arent stupid. This would mean a lot of the MTs and editors would quit...and then who would work on the accounts that aren't allowed to be sent to India. Just be prepared...your call will come. Then come back and see who will get the last laugh....I can guarantee you...it's going to be Acusis.
Sorry to tell you but that's an internet hoax. sm
I was excited about it too and then found it was a hoax.
that's where I saw the hoax report, too

This is NOT true - it IS a hoax
Here's the link: http://tech.yahoo.com/news/ap/bogus_e_mail
Yep. That's exactly what I was trying to experess; it's a HOAX.

Hoax junk mail
I finally stopped getting these disgusting e-mails. I e-mailed back with big red letters - "F.... you! This e-mail is forwarded to the FBI, Homeland Security, Interpol, and you are being traced as we speak." I never received another one again.
Got one too and knew it was a hoax because I have no Chase card.
When you don't have a card, you know it's a hoax.
Please check Snopes before posting. This is a hoax & has been out for a while now.

Has anyone disconnected the internal sound card and replace with another sound card?
I am having problems with my sound on one of my computers. Several different ExText program have been on it so I don't think it is the program and the sound is just now as clear as on my other computer. Has anyone switched (disconnected the internal sound care and replaced) to a new sound card? Did it make a difference.
Everyone on this board is so knowledgeable, I really appreciate you. You have helped me many times.
Well of course we know that now. Back then we didn't because he didn't allow unfettered access.
c
right we children didn't tattle to the administrator did we. BTW, didn't you think we were &#
because some half-witted idiot said everyone was jealous because some other anonymous poster said they were going to be a doctor. Didn't they call it doctor envy. Oh yeah, that was all about you wasn't it busy-body MT. You with your degree and premed but yet you still post here and acuse others of jealously. I dunno but you and dano seem so close, I can't put my finger on it but I would say you could be computer clones. Jealous indeed. Children indeed. I think you are blowing your covers) dano and busy body MT. This whole "jealously" thing makes me think that you may be one and the same poster.
I didn't go into labor until 2.5 weeks later, so it didn't work. Sorry!...nm

You do sound FAT, but you don't sound RICh.
Go live in Iraq or something.
sorry I didn't have time to thank you, but I didn't forget!!
Didn't you tell me?!?!? No, Liza, you didn't tell me. Hooray for you! lol

it does sound like a lot of
racil feelings are coming out in this thread...and that is a shame.
I know! You all sound like me
We might have to start our own MT group --the morning, noon, and night MTs or something like that.:)
I know your time is scarce so won't hold you. Just have to come here to give my ears a break from the dictation but back to work I go...
you sound like a 2 and 3 yr old
playing house
It does sound bad, but I think
We have these things going on all the time around us, but we just hear more about them now. And it seems since I have been watching Nancy Grace that there are many more unsolved murders and teens missing.
This may sound very odd...
but have you tried rubbing heated Castor Oil on your sore joints?
I know. It sounds strange. My mother has severe arthritis and she read that "somewhere" and tried it and now she swears by it.
Just trying to help.
Ohh, I like the sound of that lol Tell me more.
How do we find these hospitals?
You can still have that sound!...sm
You can download a free program and choose the sound you want your keys to make! They even have tap dance that my 11-year-old stepdaughter loves!

I think it's a trial program, but I like the clickity click so much that I may purchase it. This was posted under the production category because it seems to make you type faster. It helps me with my rhythm I think.
NEED TO SOUND OFF!!
First, please don't think that I don't believe in helping others because I DO. What I can't stand is for those you try to help to just take with no appreciation and then turn around and harm those in our community who try to help them.
Just before Christmas while watching the news the top story was of an elderly man who worked doing custodial work at a local hotel. He was severely beaten and left for dead one night by 4 young males just because he asked them to quit tearing down the hotel's Christmas decorations. Now when I say left for dead, I mean left for dead. This man is still in the hospital and is still unrecognizable. His doctors have said that he will need countless surgeries to rebuild his face ENTIRELY and will need 50 or more screws to hold it together. Last night it broke that 2 of them were in custody (turned in by family members) and they picked the other 2 up today. What is do disturbing is at least 1 of the 4 males is a Hurricane Katrina evacuee that had come to our city for shelter and assistance.
It is acts like this that make us weary about who we help and how we do it. The beating of an elderly man is bad enough by itself but then to tell us it was someone who came to us for shelter and help responsible is just appauling.
I apologize for any typos but it is late and I am tired. I just needed to sound off before I try to sleep.
They both sound better than
any doctor I've heard. "Living my life like it's golden..." :)
You sound exactly like me. My mom is
pretty much a workaholic, self image totally tied into her accomplishments, and I vowed I wouldn't do that to my kids either. I'm torn often though as of course I've got other personal ambitions, having some of my mom in me I guess, but I just can't imagine not being there for my kids.
That said, short of being some sort of consultant or having your own accounting business or something like that, I'm not sure what else a person could do to have this kind of flexibility.
Oh, my! You sound like me!!! . . .
I say it over and over again . . . VERIFY. Do not transcribe what you THINK you hear. If you don't know it with CERTAINTY, VERIFY it!!!!!
I try to be tactful and kind, but when the same things are done day after day, it isn't easy to be "nice." I know sometimes I am rather short and to the point, but when some don't learn and don't change anything It becomes very, very frustrating.
I could fill a book with the not-so-funny errors I see daily.
Thanks! It does sound like fun. nm

You sound just like me, always know where everything is,
am the only one who can find things even if others look, and certainly don't ask, just do it myself. :)
How does this sound for QA?
I'll only be doing QA on each person for 2 weeks. They offered $5.00 per MT and then a $25 bonus when they graduate from having to pend items to me. I'm also training and get $10 per person, which is fine with me because I can train 10 people at once. Any feedback is appreciated!
You don't sound old...
saying everything I was thinking...thank you! It's a job, plain and simple...go, do your work, go home, and forget about it...Life's way too short to stress over this...God bless!
Do you know that sound well?

you sound like me
my dog goes with me too, numerous places. He is fun to have along and it all goes away until I come back to sit down and work again,but I feel a little relieved. I always keep my eyes and ears open for other opportunities.

Can you provide more info. on Sound Medical Transcription? Do they have a website and/or how to contact them? Are they flexible? Thanks!
You sound like me...sm
I have been an MT for a year now. I do clinic but I did acute care for a couple of months and then the account got real slow and they put me back on clinic. I liked clinic a lot better. It is a lot easier. But it is good for you to do acute care because you are getting a wide variety of experience. My acute care account had tons of dictators on it. The only thing to do is keep at it. Or you may want to find another job with easier dictators. I am not the fastest typer either. But the only thing to do is hang in there and everyone says you will get faster and faster and you will learn more and more of the words you are having to look up. I do the clinic and only have 3 dictators and they are really good dictators. That is what I was offered and I have been doing that same clinic a year now. I really like it. But right now even on clinic I only do 100 or a little more than 100 an hour of lines. My friend told me she started out slow but she said you will keep picking up the speed.
What exactly are these? Is the sound better...sm
than regular headsets?
Sorry about your mom. You sound like

You know, you sound exactly...
like 'southernmt' above... the one who is trying to get the taxpayers to pay for her unplanned pregnancy. Yeah, let everyone else work the crappy hours so you can take care of your kid. Then you have the nerve to come on here and complain about your situation. No wonder you can't find a good job.
You sound like me
I freak during typing tests and tend to ramble during job interviews.
I always say, some people can sound like they know what they are talking about when they have no clue, and I sound like I have no clue even when I know what I am talking about. Lol!
That doesn't sound right.
I had student loans and still did work study. Also, contact the school's website and financial aid office for information about scholarships. Local private scholarships are available through the National Guard, VFW, Elk's Club, BPW, etc. They're for maybe $500-1,000, but there's very little competition for them. You can find information about scholarships online, too, without having to pay or buy a subscription to anything. The information's out there if you look for it.
Very sound advice...
and I appreciate the perspective - it can get you back on track...sometimes I get a little 'lazy' or just unmotivated...
Thank you for sharing.
Does sound yummy. I'm trying it.
