Yes, it's a game to play. Santa has secretly posted a giveaway for you to enter. When you find the post, click the email link to enter.  A winner will be drawn and contacted. It's that simple.  It doesn't cost anything to participate. 

I should make it clear to everyone that gifts being given do not have to be.  MTStars and sponsors come together every year so that we can offer MTStars Santa's Bag gifts to US MTs who visit the MTStars website.  I am seeing disturbing posts that are somewhat condemning when all we're tyring to do is spread some Christmas cheer.  To those who have complaints, just don't play or ruin it for others who are enjoying the fun and festivity of this annual event.
Yes, find the Secret Santa post and click the email link to enter.
GOOD LUCK

Early Santa Gift - Noise-Cancelling Headphones under $15.00 RadioShack
Merry Christmas all - I thought I would pay this forward.  I was struggling with the dictators sound quality even with volume top level for computer sound card.  It was really affecting my production.  I tried everything - even typing slower and softer so that the keystroke sound would not distort the quality of the dictation.  I was recommended to Noise Cancelling Headphones from Radio Shack. Item # is 33-104.  Made by Presidian.  I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!  Not $300 or $400.00.  Just $14.97.  I thought to myself- o.k. for that price I will try them.  Anything has got to be better than this.  They rock and I'm passing it along.  I don't work for Radioshack or anything but was thinking about swapping my MQ stock for theirs now... LOL. 
TVPS sells transcription equipment. Visit www.tvps.com

Gift of gab is a gift in deed. Not having it has cost me dearly.
I became an MT because of my interest in medical field, fascination with the work and yes, a lack of social skills. I really did think that my work would speak for me.
CMT re-cert observation

Am I missing something?  It's cheaper for me to redo the test from scratch than to buy the recertification/educational materials.


Keeping up cert costs too
I was a CMT for 20 years before I finally let it go.  Only one company I worked for in all that time paid extra for the CMT; then they were bought by Medquist who didn't care.  If you ever change companies - voluntarily or otherwise - the CMT may no longer bring you extra cash.  Remember, too, that you'll have to pay to keep up the cert.  I went to the conventions every year.  They ran me at least $1000 then with registration, airfare, hotel, food, ground transportion, etc.  Worked in-house then, and my employers didn't reimburse.  I was *lucky* I could get my vacation then.  It would probably be more now; everything else is.  If you don't have PTO where you work, then it will cost you what you would have made for those days as well.  Perhaps you're lucky and have a strong local chapter that will provide you CEs for much less cost and aggravation.  If you use the articles in the Journal, it will still cost.  Plus, it's not just any credit-worthy activity, it's one from column A, two from column B, etc.  It makes it much harder to get what you need (which may or may not have anything to do with what you REALLY need to improve your skills).  I didn't regret it while I was doing it, but I wouldn't do it again unless forced.  I hoped for 20 years that it would mean more than *personal satisfaction*, but it never did.
what is TVPS?
x
if you look - the cert letter is dated 2008
click on the tabs there, they are not in good standing for state taxes up to 2008
I have to say that I buy a lot of products from TVPS and have never had a

problem.  Before calling the BBB and credit card company, why not try again to contact the company?  People are always so quick to jump and complain to the BBB, when situations can be resolved.  I would suggest calling and asking to speak to Tom Wilkes directly.  His extension is 101.


BTW, I do not work for TVPS, I own an MTSO and only purchase from them.


Be careful when doing business with TVPS, also known

as Executive Communication Systems.   I bought a foot pedal from them that was SUPPOSED to be compatible with a particular program.  Right out of the box it didn't work.  Told me to send it back and they would repair it (shipping at my expense of course).  Received the foot pedal back and it will work for a little while and then won't work and I have to reinstall it.  They say the only way to unstall it is to unplug it from the computer.  I'm sitting right in front of the computer with a job open and the *$#*$!#@)$ pedal doesn't work.  I have asked to return the pedal (again I eat the expense) and get a refund and they refuse.  I paid $75.00+ for a pedal, had to pay nearly $9.00 to send it back for repairs, and now they won't give me my money back.  I can't even sell it to try to recoup some of my money, because I don't want to shaft someone like they did me. 


I'm going to file with the BBB and also my credit card company.

Just from a courtesy standpoint, if they are
used to you being there and available for stats, then I would let them know.

Courtesy of Shorthand, 69% according to SM
a short report for one of my usual dictators I just transcribed to get a % to pass on to you. I do almost all editing these days, though, so this test did not include a number of standard words and phrases I would either have in storage or remember and use if I did more transcription, i.e., Shorthand's contribution would be higher (gotta be fair to my precious expander!) :)

what she is claiming is next to impossible! Sorry, I don't believe you!
lol, not pulling your leg (sm)
I really did try the avatar months ago with no luck.  However, this time I did go into edit my information so maybe it "reset" something.  Glad you can see my butterfly wings............
