gorgeous without seeming to know it.
MQ drop down box
Came with the new update @ 4:00 am yesterday, the one that had the system shut down for 2 hours. Gave plenty of notice and if you check the little box next time you go into DocQmanage, you can read all about the new and improved :)
I would drop by
I always pursue until they tell me that they have gone with someone else. I am not super aggressive I just let them know I am interested. But it does sometimes take a while to get an answer but it sure wouldn't hurt to drop a brochure by or at least mail one out. Whose grandson was screaming in the background? If it was your MIL that could have been a turn off but not sure. Anyway good luck, see if she will let you become the Public Relations and you start pursuing accounts.
Let's drop this
I have getting lots of email with SUPPORTIVE ANSWERS to my questions. The rest on this board are a bunch of hostile women too lazy to read what I wrote. I took early retirement because my children are defending a bunch of slackers ande users in Afghanistan and Iraq and there are three grandchildren to keep. I live a four hour round trip from the other grandma they are living with. I am not trying to cheat ANYONE you nasty. I was trying to find out HOW to become an IC and WHAT the best tax options were. Don't tell me YOUR sorry behind is paying unecessary taxes. It is PERFECTLY LEGAL TO HAVE THE TAX TAKEN OUT OF HIS PAY. Till I got sick and my children were deployed, I was the breadwinner in this family and I earned $60K a year. Then I had heart failure, diabetes and lost toes in my feet and I STILL worked. But I will not toss my grandchildren out. I am 62 and I HAVE to work but I cannot work full time. That bothers you? If it was immoral or illegal, then the government would not ALLOW you to work and collect social security at the same time, you fool. But they DO, but ONLY UP TO A CERTAIN AMOUNT. If you can't answer a simple question, stop bashing me. I am not doing a singlething immoral or illegal and I have had four offers already from THIS web site that are within my restrictions. If it was illegal, would they do it??? NOT!
Now drop it and leave me alone.
Why drop him?
You have nothing to lose, but everything to gain. I don't quite understand. Once they dictate, then type it when you can. You can only be as consistent as they are, so if it takes longer to get it back to them, then so be it. If it is good income that you don't want to lose, I would stick it out.
Furthermore, you are making yourself look bad by complaining. If he comes across a colleague that may be looking for a transcriptionist, he may not recommend you due to your complaining. You want to keep a good reputation. JMO.
YOU ARE DEAD ON ABOUT OSi
The lunatic department head you are talking about is the reason I left that department AND OSi once she finally got her pie in the sky promotion and knocked a bunch of much more qualified people down along the way.
Imagine being the best at your job and being usurped by someone on a power trip whose main goal is to try to convince everyone how great she is because she basically doesn't know what the hell she is doing.
I know how to do my job and don't need some hick micromanaging me and breathing down my neck all the time.
If she were knowledgeable, she would organize her department with enough people to make it function properly, then leave them alone and let them do her job.
She is the biggest joke of a "manager" I have ever seen.
Good riddance, OSi!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He can't be dead......
Maybe Uncle June's gonna get on the phone with 9-1-1 and maybe give him mouth to mouth??? haha. Will be interesting to see how they're going to explain that next episode...he was pretty much gone there! And if it's another panic attack and he passed out and dreamed it AGAIN, not watching it anymore. Love the show, but those dreams, like the one in the beginning where Carmella was chatting with dead *Aide* are getting a little old...don't ya think???
Can't be dead.....
I agree with you about the dream gimmick - worn out.
However, there is a theory out there that this episode is actually the last episode of the series and that the 19 more that are to come - 11 this year and then 8 next year - will show us how all these situations evolved.
Dead End...not well-known, had
never heard of it before, but it is a good ol' suspense, kind of frightening movie with a weird ending. Would watch it again if they would play it again.
He's not dead, if that's what you mean. ..
n
now they say 130 are dead
and 300 injured due to terrorist attacks. I hope and pray they catch the ones responsible. Those poor people.
I am dead serious.
I am sick of being treated like a third class citizen whle so other bozo is making tons of money off my work. Let's unite!!! Why do we need them, we can do this on our own!!??
Dead right! sm
For one of my graduate classes in Competitive Intelligence, I ran an operation against a private security company, starting with nothing but the name of the company.
Before I was through, I had discovered (strictly from public sources) that the CEO of this private security company was also on the board of a Saudi Arabian company, of which other board members were on the "watch" list of Homeland Security.
I knew where this company did its banking and about two significant loans it had defaulted on. I knew that one of the corporate executives, a male, had changed his last name just after arrest reports were recorded in the same county for an individual with the same "old" name (which was quite an unusual name).
I knew this and many, many "inside" details about the company's internal operations.
...starting with nothing but the name of the company.
What's in a resume? Your name, your address, your phone number, where you attended high school/college, former employers and perhaps other information about your hobbies, etc. Give me your resume, and I guarantee you I'll wind up with your SS#.
you know you are in a dead-end job when.....
you cannot get any type of pay increase after 2 years....sigh.....not surprised but it just depresses me. This is not a good way to start the new year. I am finding it hard to stay motivated. Ok, thanks for letting me get that off my chest.
I'm an MT; I know what a dead end job is! LOL. n/m

perhaps you could drop your TC a note...sm
just to say hi, and welcome. She/he has many, many more people to get in touch with than you do, so why not make the first move? I'm not at all trying to be ugly, please don't take it that way, it's just, why not just send a message saying hi, and introducing yourself? Just a thought! Good luck with whatever you choose to do!!!
perhaps you could drop your TC a note...
I guess you mean Transcription Coordinator -- what I called my new supervisor. I hear you, but I really don't see that as my responsiblity. MQ is so chaotic, I always get the impression they'd greatly prefer not to be bothered. I'm kinda way past that point with that. Thanks for the welcome anyhow.
perhaps you could drop your TC a note...
I think you've misunderstood me. I agree completely with your most recent post, i.e. being left alone to do my job. Absolutely. I just don't think a courtesy note from a new supervisor is too much to ask. That's not breathing down my neck; IMO, that's courtesy, i.e. Here I am, I'm your new supervisor, here's how things may or may not change, just wanted to say hi and make proper notation of the fact that a change has taken place. WHATEVER.
perhaps you could drop your TC a note...
Okay, now you're making me mad. You don't know me, and you have no right to lump me into a goup with "(my) fellow nut-case MTs" ...and you have the gall to say "nothing personal"? Freakish behavior? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! Wow, I came on here looking for some support, and now I'm a freak and a nut case. No thanks! See y'all around!!!
perhaps you could drop your TC a note...
Read your phrase: "your fellow nut-case MTs." It does not say "your fellow MTs, some of whom are nut cases."
Read your phrase: "freakish behavior en masse." It does not say "the freakish behavior of some MTs."
Both of these groupings include me. You are guilty of bad syntax and just plain rudeness. I consider these equally offensive. I most certainly did not fly off of any handle, nor did I (until now) TAKE TO WRITING IN CAPITAL LETTERS TO EXPRESS MY OPPOSITION TO YOUR POINT OF VIEW when a little careful wording would've rendered that unnecessary. I proved you point? You sure proved mine. GOODBYE.
no, we are only a drop in the bucket of MQ

PLEASE, lets drop this....
I got the help I needed for today. Let's just drop it.
FTP/digital drop box
Hi, I am looking for a method of receiving my dictations that is secure and large enough to hold the dictations without problems like I sometimes have through email. Someone mentioned FTP/digital drop box. Has anyone used this? Can you explain the pros and cons of this. Thanks in advance.
RE: Drop Chute
Thank you so much. I would much rather use an FTP site. I had just never heard of Drop Chute before.
I would only drop him if he does a month's

income drop
My production is about even with SR/VR as straight transcription, sometimes even less (the reports come in that full of garbage). Hence, with a rate per line decrease, my hourly pay dropped to 1/3.
Not for long. I just won't lay down and take that sort of abuse. And I do consider this situation abusive.
I have yet to find anyone that I can verify that that they are producing double, let alone triple their usual transcription lines per hour.
that's dead on the money
I have version 3 of Instant Text and used that to create phrase files of 4 words or more and then imported them into the different medical modules that I have. Between that and running the Accuracy Center every couple of months, I was able to get my accuracy to almost 100%, as long as I dictate the way I'm supposed to and the words are in the dictionary.
DH went out shopping later in day and said it was dead.

I keep thinking he's not dead, just (sm)
maybe in a coma for the whole season or something. Don't know if I can get my "fix" of the Sopranos if he's gone.
Top 10 dead end jobs....
Article in CareerBuilders
This was one of a few clerical positions that were listed as the tope 10 dead end jobs. I really am thinking of doing something else now.
Word Processors and Data-Entry Keyers This sector of workers is expected to decline due to the proliferation of personal computers. Employment growth of data entry keyers will still be dampened by productivity gains, as various data-capturing technologies, such as bar code scanners, voice recognition technologies and sophisticated character recognition readers become more prevalent. In addition, employment of these workers will be adversely affected by businesses that are increasingly contracting out their work.
top 10 dead end jobs
Koudos to you!!! any person who is burnedout in any job should persue another avenue! I think it is great that you have taken that step to better your life and pursue happiness. It takes great courage to leave a comfortable situation and start a new path.
It's "keel" over dead,,,,,

Except he is dead and can't talk.

Nope -- He was dead serious.
I don't think so. He was dead serious saying there were new contacts available approved for 24-7 wear. This was when I first walked in -- did not even begin the exam. He wasn't smiling or saying it in a joking way at all. That alone made me uneasy. He seemed -- not all there if you know what I mean. And the longer I was there the more I felt that way. Also I should mention he tested both eyes together not right and then left and I have never not had my eyes checked individually. I know my right eye is a different prescription than my left. Also, I went to Sears for glasses prior and they always use that machine to measure the distance of pupils to make the glasses -- this wasn't done either. All round it was a horrible experience. There was another woman there complaining of these same things only she paid over $300.00 and they were refusing to give her a refund as well. Why should we be forced to pay for eye wear we cannot see out of? I will never return there again -- still intent to fight for the rest of my money though! Stay away, far, far, away from this place.
afraid insurance is going to drop me...
Two years ago I became an independent and have individual insurance. During the application I put on there I had quit smoking (former smoker). I now have a procedure coming up, and during the consultation for this procedure, my doctor asked me if I smoked. Well, I do "occasionally" but I did not expect him to ask that question, so I fumbled and said "yes, but not every day." Now is this grounds for my insurance not covering me? Is it possible they can dig through the paperwork specifically to find this and nail me on it? Or can it be accepted that at the time I signed on with them, I in fact was not a smoker, but started up between then n now, so they have no grounds? I'm scared, as I cannot afford this procedure out of pocket!!! What do you guys think?
They can drop you, jack up your premium, or ....
Doctors ALWAYS ask if you smoke, especially if you are having surgery. Smoking makes you heal slower, heal improperly and can affect anesthesia choice. I don't know that the fact that you smoke "occasionally" will be transmitted to the insurance company, yet you should yourself report it to the insurance company. Smoking is still smoking and is still a serious health risk.
Did start to drop some weight but...(sm)
...it took a little while. It's like my system was totally discombobulated (surgical menopause for me was a real bear!) & it didn't know what to do. I was finally able to take most of the weight off, but I have to be very careful now, as it's so easy to put on (especially in my belly area) & harder to shed. Everybody's different, tho', & I know women who have come off HRT & dropped whatever weight they gained & totally leveled out.
Here's a link to a site I found very helpful & supportive - it's a hysterectomy support site, but they have all kinds of helpful info about hormones, fitness, etc. You may be able to find some useful stuff there:
http://www.hystersisters.com
Glad I could be of some help...if you need support or info or whatever, please don't hesitate to e-mail me, k?
DirecWay Drop-offs
Thanks for the tip. It looks like Direcway has a new upgrade from the 6000 model...more money of course. I will need to do something, as 3 days at half-production is just too miserable.
Peach drop in Atlanta, GA
I'm looking forward to it.
random calls/drop ins
People just do not understand. I have just had to be rude without apology. I have had so many people call and even though I don't answer still drop by. I have to say that if I am too busy to answer phone then I am also too busy to go to the door. I have had them stand on the door step ringing the bell and calling my phone. More than once I have answered the phone to someone saying they were at my door. I say, "Oh, is that you ringing my bell? Sorry but I am working". They do not like it but neither do appreciate the disrespect. My friends have just learned to laugh it off. I stick to my guns, even with my family No work, no pay, is what I say.
We are planning on going Aug 20 when the rates drop...lol
WOW - I have been checking out both Compass Cove and Caravelle.. I have a 3-1/2-year-old..So you liked Compass Cove the best, huh? Did they offer the full breakfast buffet? Were the rooms really clean and nice? I am going to check out their prices now....I love the beach...I have had such a hard year that I am looking SO forward to it...We are going to 6 days/5 nights.....Thanks for the info!
If she uses ftpsurfer she can just drag and drop
Are you saying the files are already in digital format and they are already on her PC? All she would have to do is open the file where they are at, minimize the window, click on ftpsurfer, click on your folder to open it, then drag and drop. So I would try another free FTP utility, like ftpsurfer.
probably will have a drop in your line count though
The last person they ask about the EMR is the Transcriptionist and then they ignore what she says anyway. Most EMR's are not set up to be efficient. You probably will be going in and out of a alot of screens so expect your line count to drop. You may want to negotiate a raise in your cpl before working in the EMR.
Drop DeVenture a line!
It's summer and it's BUSY! I've been starting an hour early and ending an hour later and it's kinda pissin' me off now---it's the time of year one wants to be outside! I know they're lookin' for help and I've got nuthin' but good things to say about them. I'm not a boss or nuthin', just a lowly typist, but I do like the work and especially my boss lady (workflow manager, whatever the heck she's called!). Give it a shot. The main site is www.deventure.biz if your interested.
I pick-up and drop-off work too.
You can probably get 12 cpl (65 characters w/spaces). Do not limit yourself to per page at this point. Start your bid at that, and then depending upon what you see come your way, you may want to change that over to per page, but I seriously think you'll do better at 12 cpl and paid production. I just picked-up my own account about 3 weeks ago and am charging just that, so e-mail me if you want more info, but the doc is fine with the 12 cpl. Congrats! And, ENT should be a breeze if you've done other specialties. Also, don't forget to ask for samples!!!!!
RE: Drop shoot software
Can anyone explain what Drop shoot software is and where to get it? Thanks
Have you been on Clarity and if so, have you noticed drop in pay?
Anticpating a huge drop in pay due to the new platform and am very concerned about how this will affect my budget. Since you appear to be content, maybe my fears are misplaced?
Not yet, but I have heard the same thing about drop in pay. nm

Yes, me too, but I still drop off printed reports
The phone system just makes it easier to track reports, no more broken tapes, etc. Plus, drs like it when they can call with an urgent document instead of waiting for pickup. I was hesitant (old dog not wanting new tricks) but I really like it a lot. It also is more secure as far as HIPAA, each dr has a different log-in and all.
I agree, but drop the hyphen (nm)

There would be nine dead dogs if this happened to me.
Really. Sad to say but I would find some way to eliminate these dogs if no one is willing to do anything. They are a health hazzard and a nuisance at this point.
