Try Crap Cleaner
Google for it and download (should be from Hippo). Run it - let it analyze and run cleaner. Then go to "tools" and "fix issues." After that reboot your computer and then try to get the gid file again. Hopefully this will clean out anything you've got blocking it.
Septic tank cleaner, it's cleaner than MT!

Download Express Scribe, it's free, when you download the voice files you will listen to....
them in Express Scribe and you can set your footpedal up. I forget where the downloaded files go, can't remember if you can put them where you want them but I would have to search for them to download to Express Scribe - maybe someone else can tell you how. It is much better than what you are doing.
My first job working at a dry cleaner/laundry. sm
Working on a shirt folding machine in the summertime with temp over 100 degrees indoors. Smelling the dry cleaning fumes.
Hired house cleaner
You are getting a deal at $12 an hour. I pay mine $20. I carry an umbrella policy on my home on vehicle that is $1 million over my regular home insurance - it costs less than $200 a year and will cover anyone that is injured in your home or vehicle - It is well worth it. This policy picks up where the other two leave off, should anyone need that much in medical care.
Great Vacuum Cleaner
Riccar Vacuum Cleaners are the only way to go. Very strong suction. Easy to use.
I love my Roomba robot cleaner
It has a remote control - no pushing it around, and it's fun to watch.
Buy canned air - much safer, quicker & cleaner!

yes AdAware is good, so is that cleaner program
but just to be wary about others that offer free antivirus and then latch onto your system so you will buy it...
:)
Need some good advice on a GREAT vacuum cleaner...sm
We vacuum at least twice daily because we bought carpet that tracks like you would not believe. We bought a Eureka bagless vacuum cleaner about 4 months ago and it is the pits! Does not pick up, you have to REALLY clean it every time...who knows what the real problem is...I would not mind paying good money for a GOOD vacuum cleaner that does not lose suction...Any ideas?
I use C-Cleaner. Gets rid of spyware and the like. Works wonderful and is Free. nm

Download antikeylogger from download.com.

Carpet cleaner? Flea spray? Chemicals used inside his car? Restaurant food? New vitamins? Cold

crap
I agree.
Why do the MTSOs not DARE to tell the crappy dictators that their dictations are crap? Some doctors do not maintain their equipment functioning properly, then the sound quality is aweful.
MTSOs are afraid to lose the client if they complain about this.
And the MTs have to suffer through this all.
Yes, that me.....have way to much crap happening....

THANK YOU!! As QA I run into the same crap. Like they do not care...
The whole verbatum thing..they go a LITTLE far. There is still room to make it correct.
yes my spelling has gone to crap sorry
so much for proof reading.. I am sure to be bashed for that
What a load of crap!!!!....nm

crap money
New transcriptionists are not given the opportunities that are available to experienced transcriptionists. Even though it is crap money it is the only way we can get our foot in the door to gain the experience we need to even be considered for higher paying positions. I, personally suffer with low pain just to gain EXPERIENCE.
offshore crap
P
HOLY CRAP!!!! Here's what I'd do:
1. Get a hotel room.
2. CALL ANIMAL CONTROL!!!!
Crap. Try actually reading what she said.
I agree with her. I was not a good, fast, MT but I am a killer at research and I can find stuff it seems like nobody else can. I share it with the MT's I proof and my QA peers in the company and everybody benefits.
It's not a question of being better than, worse than or whatever. People are reading stuff into posts that isn't there, IMO.
NOW THAT IS HORSE CRAP
I am sorry, as long as I have done this and am in the business, I seriously doubt with 99% accuracy that someone can do 1200 lines or even 600 without some serious help from "giving" lines. Do not let anyone fool you out there that is just starting out or even have been around awhile. Unless you see proof on how it is done, see it with your own eyes, try it out yourself, do not believe the outrageous. There is also a way I have seen MT's make lots of lines that one cannot see unless they are being QA'd, it is called "padding' and yes I am sure someone then can do 1200 lines an hour, but how much is actually dictation. Padding is a good way to get fired from a company if caught.
Sick of QA crap
At this company I work at, I get so sick and tired of QA. I am sure that there are a lot of wonderful QA people out there and I commend you. But it seems like where I work at, the QA do not follow all the same rules and change what they want with your reports. I get feedback about once a month and I was just looking at my feedback and I am so irritated. They changed things on my report that if you look in the account specifics it is the total opposite. I am doing it right and they are changing it wrong but b/c they make a mark on my report it looks like I am the one at fault. Like we are supposed to place all numbers in arabic form and dates also, but QA went and changed on my report numbers 1-10 to written form and also spelled out the dates and it specifically states not to in specifics. Or like with fractions, it is supposed to be 18-1/2 (a dash in there) but QA changed to 18 1/2 (no dash). And they also change little nitpicky things, for ex. how they think headers should be, they change words around, add commas in stupid places. And what one QA person will mark as wrong, another QA will mark as right. Where do they get these people? I emailed the supervisor for clarification, but I have done this times before and nothing has changed. I really like this company other than the QA. The QA just act like they have all this power and they can change what they want to. It is total bull.
Maybe their work is crap, too..
...but cheaper crap. Maybe as long as hospitals and MTSOs figure they are going to get schlock work anyway, they would prefer it to be cheaper offshore work, and go through the many layers of QA and proofing?
Insurance companies are one thing, but I have to wonder what happens when a report with serious medical errors ends up in court as part of a megabucks malpractice suit. I mean if the doc dictates something like "50 mg of potassium" which the MT does not question, or some other horrible boo-boo that QA or the doc never catches. We are at the bottom of the pyramid, with QA and the doctor himself also responsible for catching mistakes before he signs. Anybody know of any histories of this?
I think things started going downhill when impersonal MTSOs took over the transcription business, then started buying and trading us like cattle. We truly don't know our coworkers or bosses. We're all just faceless typing machines out here. I don't know about any of you, but I did not get a raise the last five years I was with one MTSO, only 1 raise during the entire 10 years, and certainly no praise for a job well done - ever.
Yeah, I know, we still all should do our best all the time. But motivation is sometimes lacking when you feel depersonalized and as though at any moment your company will be sold, your job sent overseas, or you will be turned into a VR Editor against your will. Maybe some MTs are all about just typing as fast as possible while it lasts.
Did the MTSOs start this by going overseas for cheap, causing us to say 'what the heck' and become low quality? Or did we start this by being low quality, causing the MTSOs to go overseas since they were going to get bad work anyway? Opinions?
I think that crap is inflated!!!!
I don't see an MT making that much unless they are getting about 9-12 cents a line and then I believe it. I make 6 cpl and have been since I started 3 years ago. That same Yahoo thing tells me my husband who is a plumber should be making $60,000, but that dosen't happen.... not with this economy anyway!!!
Simple, I'm fed up with all the crap and I'm not going to allow it to start up again.
Here's the deal...if you're unhappy at MQ because you're not getting what you want, find another job and quit. If you think MQ is oh so wonderful, fabulous, but keep in mind that other people don't agree with you and can post their opinions. If your main beef is to just come here and whine about it, get lost because it's tiresome. Administrator
Where is this job? On this planet of MT? Holy crap!
as Frank Barone would say.
I just send the crap to QA and let them deal with it!
I suppose they get paid more to clean up garbage.
Sorry, I don't eat greasy crap like that. Enjoy yours though

Though I must say the thought of it scares the crap out of me. sm
Both parents are mid-60s now and for the most part quite healthy, though mom has had Parkinson's for a few years, which is thankfully very slow in its progression thus far. My biggest fear is that she progresses to mental decompensation from it.
I think my brother would shoulder as much responsbility as he could along with me for our parents. I'm already thinking about my next house being larger than we need just in case we have to accommodate one or both of our parents later. Neither my bro nor I live particularly close to our parents, either.
It's a daunting thought from all angles.
Some QA is being instructed to not give a crap
and just plug up the holes and ignore the rest! TAT, ya know! Yeah........get 'er done!
i googled and a bunch of crap came up
d
Looks like you all ARE taking those crap jobs!
I don't contribute crap around here, so I'm told...
My ungrateful, hateful 11-year-old (at the time) son told me that if I would get off my butt and get a job we'd have something (because I refused to buy him some game, or something). I sat him down and showed him my check stubs compared to his dad's, which are substantially more income for this family.
We MTs must be the most unappreciated workers in the world! Especially if we work at home, it's just not seen as 'serious' work! Not only do I get comments from my child, but my family thinks 'since I don't work' MY schedule is THEIR schedule...."give it to her, she can go do it."
I'm so disgusted.
Op notes bore the crap out of me.
Lysol works great!! Either spray or Lysol Bathroom cleaner. nm

How dumb are YOU? I was referring to people saying crap like
"things happen," which is a HUGE COP-OUT.
I know what OP means...Give you crap work

YOU ARE WELCOME - after that crap I quit and went back to school

Think OSI test dumped crap on computer
This is just a warning to be careful. I took a test for OSi last week and I think the audio files dumped a lot of crap on my computer, so be careful. When I double-clicked to open the file I got a popup that tried to dump an ad tracker cookie on my computer, then my desktop froze up. I rebooted. I did this about 3 times and finally just opened Real Player and then opened the file. I found a bunch of crap on my computer afterwards that I cleaned up. I can't say 100% this is what did it but I would suggest being careful and running AntiVirus/Adware programs afterward. I finally deleted all emails from them because one had 3 attached files that had nothing to do with the content as nothing was being sent to me and I once had my hard drive completely wiped clean by a virus sent this way when I naively opened the file.
I consider job searching in the MT field a crap shoot
You can never tell which would be better than another until you try it. Too many bait and switchers out there.
Not true! Hubby can't spell for crap and is a
Spelling ability is not linked to intelligence, believe me. My husband is brilliant, but spelling is not his thing. Algebra isn't mine, but I'm a darn good transcriptionist. Just because some of the words in an e-mail were misspelled, that does not reflect on the writer's intelligence at all. Your assumption is way off base.
The same crap about HIPAA & encryption sickens me. The problem is what
happens once the information reaches India and is processed by the India MT. So what if the dictation is "encrypted" and sent through "private lines". What happens to the information once it's UNencrypted? That is where the problem is because then that private health information can be compromised and our illustrious HIPAA law can do NOTHING, NADA, ZIP to protect the poor patient...why oh why...again, because HIPAA is a U.S. law and is not enforceable outside of the U.S.
The next thing that doesn't ring true is the so called "aging" American Medical Transcriptionist labor pool. Let's get real Mr. Paulik. The FACT is that YES there is a shortage....a shortage of experienced MTs willing to work for PEANUTS! Pay us a decent wage and watch those experienced MTs come out of the woodwork! Also, take a good hard look at every single MT website and see the enormous number of American MTs, EXPERIENCED MTs looking for work.
I am so fed up with these corporations using this same lame excuses time and again to justify what comes down to the almighty buck.
you are truly a piece of crap - and the posters on this board are way too kind
in their words to you in calling you selfish and coldhearted. You are absolutely scum of the earth for your statement of "why is any state taking these jerks in?"
You will starve to death with only crap to type, trust me. They did it to me.
A steady diet of difficult doctors and bad reports = no lines an hour.
No lines an hour = Broke city.
If you took a cent a line pay cut and only did ER work you'd make more money!
Good for you. There is no reason any hard working MT should put up with that crap. nm
:)
I agree with not letting our children watch crap; however,
I think some people are a little too sensitive when it comes to TV. Being someone who supports gay marriage, shows such as Will and Grace do not bother me. I don't really watch much TV though. The only show I love is CSI, but I rarely have time to sit down and watch it.
On the other hand, I have a huge problem with a network that allows many animals to be killed just for entertainment purposes and a problem with people who think that this is okay for some reason. It's pathetic. If that were dogs or cats floating around in that water instead of rats, people would be throwing a fit. What is the difference??
I see folks churn out crap that I cannot argue for humans

Sounds like my old job, pain in the butt, all that crap slows you
Clinic is generally easier, but you can get longer reports with acute care generally. Kind of a toss-up I think. I get slowed down most when I have to look up the doctor's name and addresses when I do letters. Doing a bunch of clinic notes/evaluations tonight where they supply a patient list and all the doctors names and addresses.....saves me tons of time....but that is a rarity. Oh well, good luck.
