Oh horror, horror, horror! sm
Tongue nor heart cannot conceive nor name thee! (With apologies to Mr. Shakespeare.) I was just getting acquainted with DocShuttle when I retired, and it made me tear much of my hair out. If it's the same program. It may have changed in the last three years, but I wouldn't touch it with a 10-foot pole. :(
Sounds like the Amityville horror to me.

No horror story for me, but (see inside)
I did regain almost all of the weight I lost (100 pounds). They only operated on body, not my brain, and I am a grazer, which is the major way that weight is regained. But as a member of a large support group, I know many, many people for whom the surgery has been a lifesaver.

Have you checked out www.obesityhelp.com ? Tons of info there.
I would never have... too many horror stories from friends/instructors that did! nm

After reading all the horror stories on this board - sm
about the flaky way so many MTSO's operate, I think only the newest of the newbies would interview for a position without also interviewing ABOUT the position. It's a 2-way street, you know. If an MT is asking you questions up front, rather than waiting to find out AFTER hiring on with you that the job's not a good fit, that would waste time and money for both of you. It sounds like she looks before she leaps, and that she has a good head on her shoulders. She's obviously interviewing for more than one position, and doesn't want to go any further until she's also checked with a few more job possibilities. Judging by what you wrote in your post, my guess is she's experienced, and doesn't want to get the runaround at a poorly-run or fly-by-night operation.
I've heard other horror stories by adoptees.
Their families telling them they're lucky they got adopted and that they should be more grateful and what not. I swear, people should have to get a license before they become parents. I'll be the first to tell you I was not the best parent in the world, but at least I made sure my daughters knew they were wanted and loved - even during those rare times when they weren't! LOL.
I have a tattoo horror story I've been waiting to tell.
It's a bit off color and subject, but it has the word tattoo in it.  Now's as good a time as any.  I once met an Indian man ((feathers, not dots)) that had a tattoo that was evidently a woman's name on his shoulders - from side to side in very BIG letters.  I know the letters were bigger than my hand from tips to wrist.  Okay, I had to ask, and he tole me he had broken up with her, so he took an iron and burned the letters from his shoulders.  I don't know if you know about Indians and keloid scars...needless to say, it was a scar of EPIC proportions.  I was sooooo sorry I asked.    We're a passionate people. 
I thought the network had mistakenly cut to a horror film

Havn't seen a horror movie sinceSilence of the Lambs. I don't find them

Yeah! We would go to the movies for 75c - triple feature horror flicks -
Vincent Price and Boris Karloff. Of course, we were too busy 'making out' to watch the movies! That is, until the usher came by a shined the flashlight on us!
Thank you ghost! So true! So true! More than one person!

Yer crackin' me up! True, true, true! nm

ROFL!! true, so true! nm
nm
true, true but out of about 90 flicks....1 or 2...nm

true, true - but what you see as arrogance...sm

I think a lot of people go the extreme -


so, if I had to be one way or the other (being a humble extremist myself...*LOL*), I'd rather have too much self-esteem than not enough (been there, done that the first 30 years!!! *L*).  And I am a truly humble person, been recognized for just that.....but because of *been there, done that* - and all sorts of therapies (not drug therapies), some end up the other way.  Oh well, this was a fun couple of posts - so I thought.


Gave me much to chew on :)  Have fun!  


True but to say there are no good MTs not true.

ROFLMAO!!!! so true! so true!
Everybody sees it but her, though! I love it! Thanks for the giggle! ":^)

do a search
This was all discussed in quite detail about a week or so ago.  Do a search and see what you find.  With only a year's experience you may have a little bit of trouble.  You say you are working for a local MTSO, what are they paying you, add on 20 to 30%.  Do they print?  You have to be prepared to do any kind of job, tapes, digital, printing, delivering, pick-up, transferring files before you advertise to get an account and have all the equipment necessary and everything ready to go.  But just like every other service, you gotta go out and make the calls to get the account, it isn't going to come to you and knock on your door unless you have been an established business.   Check in to see about a business license, register your name with the state, get ready for taxes, etc.

I ran a search and got 0
Sorry to repeat a question but I had run a search before I posted and it produced nothing - I don't know why.  Forgive me for being a bother.
Do a search
If you do an archieve search yo will see that this is talked about every 7 to 10 days at least.  It is no big secret it is basically what you feel your service is worth and then figuring up what you rexpenses are, paper, delivery, etc.     As stated there are too many differntials to state flatly how much to charge -- it is not like minimum wage -- but it seems like a good starting point is 0.12 cpl but again every part of the country is different and what you will be providing in your service is different than mine.  But do a search as we went into this quite extensively about a week or so ago.    Patti
Do a search

Do a search as this has been really talked about several times during the past month or so.


 


Search

You have to have the word exactly the same when you do the search if there is an extra space between first and last name or between two words it will not pull it up.  I use the search from my START key rather than from working in the microsoft word.  I also name my documents with an extension .doctor initial, i.e. .mb .jn .eif or whatever so if I know the doctor I can specify in advanced search to look only at that doctor's documents.  But if I am looking for a type of report, i.e. Colonoscopy, op note on crushed finger/nailbed, then I just put in those words and tell it to search all "My documents" or wherever you file off your reports and it does so.  I have had very good luck with this.   Hope this is what you were talking about. 


Patti


Sorry - should have done a search

I see this question has been answered many times. Never mind.


search

If you type those schools into the search box for MTSTars, you will come up with hundreds of repsonses to that very question.  As well as a wealth of information.


Good luck with your decision. 


search it
I would suggest you either do a Google search OR you can type those phrases into the search box here on MTStars.  I am sure those questions have been answered on here before and you can probably gain the information you are looking for.  People on here are very knowledgable about that stuff. :)
I did a search. take a look at this : sm but I will keep looking

I did a search for contraindications.
There are certain medications you shouldn't use green tea with, but I'm not on any of them.
Stay away from M-TEC. Do a search here for more

Why does search not work???
I can put something in the search engine AND change it to seach mtstars archives and it won't do it.  It still says it can't find anything or gives me web sites on that subject.  I'm not leaving it on search the web but it will not work.  I can even put Medquist or another word that is right here on the home page and it won't find anything???????????
How to search boards
Can someone please tell me how to search for comments on companies?  tia.
Did a search on google and saw the ads.
I will make some phone calls today. I don't wear my rings and have no heirs so it seems like the thing to do.

Thank you both for responding.
archive search
Is it just me or is the archive search here almost useless? Every time I look for something, even my own past posts, I get terrible results.
Oh, this could be a treasure to search thru
Awesome! There is so much info out there, if I could just FIND it! Previous poster is right, can't even find my own posts with what's up now.
New Search Feature (sm)
Is it possible to display the dates of the posts in the search results?  If not, add to wishlist?
You might do a search here for the company name or
look on the Company forum.
Is there a way to search by user name? (sm)
Is there a way to search MTStars by user name?  For instance, if I want to search my past posts?  I tried using the search at the top but it didn't work.
