In Reply to: Best place you've ever worked for and why . . . - New to work at home MT
I miss working with other people. I miss having a QA person or a supervisor I know and can go talk to. I miss the hospital gossip and hearing about people's grandkids. Sigh. I left them to work at home figuring it would be all that. But it's not. Sigh....

Here are some more - Maine Medical Center, sm
Fairview Health System, Gwinnett Medical Center, Atlanta, Piedmont Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess, Charlston Medical Center, West Virginia, Pacific California Hospital, UMass hospital, Marin General Hospital, California, New England Baptist, and the list goes on and on and on.
The medical center by my home is the same (sm)
The last time I was in there the receptionist said that all their dictation is done by EMR. The doctor pulls up the patient file, dictates into a little black machine, and it is automatically put into the record. The receptionist said this is done at THEIR medical center and ALL THEIR SATELLITES. I was not at all happy to hear this. They used to have transcriptionists.
I also know of a very large medical center which did

Mobile Infimary Medical Center
It depends on what department you are going into. Are you Medical Records MT? or Radiolgy MT?
Does anyone know where to find a listing of the V.A. Medical Center physicians?
Thanks for the help.
Which part of Maine and NH were you thinking of visiting??? The Maine coast is beautiful -sm
and the White Mountains in NH is also nice. I would suggest driving the Kangamangus Highway in the White Mountains in NH. Very nice drive and beautiful views of the White Mountains. I believe the Old Man of the Mountain is along this route but part of him fell a while ago so not sure what he looks like now???!!!
I'm in Eastern NC, too - where are you?
?
where in eastern AR? Me too
cool
why not try eastern montana
if you already work for a national why not go for eastern Montana renting or buying real estate is much cheaper and horse acres much easier to find
Middle Eastern. I don't know why.
I can do the others with no problem at all, but there's something about the vocal tone that I literally cannot hear it properly.
middle eastern accents
I had one yesterday for that sang and hummed most of the report. He dictated in a sing-song voice that made me think he was casting some sort of spell. In between words and sentences he would say, ahhhh, ummmmmmm, and then speed ahead with the sing-song again. And it was all in a middle-eastern accent. It was an extra long report and awful. I was so jittery by the time I finally finished.
$3.40 in eastern NC. I just sat in line for an hour to get gas, and they had a $35 limit. nm
Do U live in eastern TN..Just curious.think I knowU.nm

southern, northern, eastern, western--sm
what difference does it make where anybody is from...how about being a *bleeding heart* for ALL life...not just human and not just animals. God gave everything that breathes life, and we should respect that. human or animal. JMO
How about middle eastern/indian trained
in Ireland and Scotland and thus have that accent with middle eastern pronounciations - have one that sounds like Shrek!!!
Eastern European -- Russian, Polish, etc.
French, especially the surgeons. Easiest: Middle Eastern, Korean, Chinese, Indian. nm

I think you're a little off center
Attitude has nothing whatsoever to do with "success" these days. I personally know too many MTs, working for different companies, with very legitimate complaints and they aren't the cry baby types. I am a good MT also but what difference does that make if there's no work? I always asked the same question, "Do your MTs run out of work?" I do not have time to sit around all day waiting to see if there might be some work to do...either I work or I don't. Every recruiter assured me that there was plenty of work. They lied. I have worked now for 2 years for the same company and this time the recruiter told me there was plenty of work and obviously there is or I wouldn't still be there. If and when I start running out of work with them, I am out of MT period. So, I guess, I have to revise my first statement a little. If anyone finds the right company for them, then attitude probably does have everything to do with success. As for myself, I rarely hear anything from the company I work for other than regularly getting my pay stub that my pay has been direct deposited on time and for the correct amount. I think some MTs put too much emphasis on line rates. 1500 lines per day at 8.5 cpl comes out to a whole lot more than 200 lines at 15 cpl. As for my line rate, it isn't terribly impressive but I make as much as I want to make and don't have to kill myself doing it so these days that's about all one can expect IMO.
We have a bowling center
And our employees get free bowling, lol!!
How do I center something in Word?
thanks
Don't know about Maine
but here in Northeast Alabama we do actually have an overpopulation. However, I agree the state can come up with some ridiculous laws regarding hunting. We used to raise cattle. There were as many deer as cattle on our farm. We were constantly having to repair fencing, not to mention what they did to our gardens, etc. Last year my husband hit a deer with his car on his way home from work. State Farm said they had handled more deer claims this year than ever before. Also, most of the hunters I know either eat the meat themselves, or give it to someone who wants it. By the way, my husband is a member of the NRA, but the NRA not only fights gun control, but promotes gun safety and responsibility. I am not flaming. You have a right to your opinion. Guns are dangerous in the wrong hands. I don't love guns, but I feel they have their place. There is sometimes only one deputy patrolling our whole county at night. If we have a problem, we are on our own. I feel like guns are a necessary evil where I live. My husband once held some young men at gun point who my 75-year-old neighbor caught stealing her grandson's ATV (the grandson was in Iraq). Of course he did not shoot anyone, but he did hold them until the deputies could get there- 45 minutes later.
Try NTI in Maine--

Going to Maine.
I am originally from Bangor, Maine, and my family has a cabin on Lake Sebec. My mom, dad, sister, son, and I went for 10 days last year and we are going again this year. It's really great to go and see all of my family. I have a very large family up there and since they are 1000 miles away, I don't get to see them very often. Can't wait to go, although the drive up and back is a looooong one!
document solution center
Jen: Is that the one in Gadsden? with Tina Parker as president? You can email me for more info, but I worked for them for 2 1/2 years and I would not recommend it to anyone. Thanks, Beth
Dell's support center
Dell provides technical support from their American staff only to CORPORATE clients, all others, like you and me, we get INDIA.
It's probably a telemarketing call center
using a computerized sequential dialer program - I think they've been outlawed in most of the US states. If you have caller ID, just don't answer unless you know who's calling.
No, it does not. The call center is probably overseas

The surgery center personnel are just as guilty, IMO. sm
Doctors are not untouchable. Any nurse or tech or secretary who has direct knowledge of a doctor using illegal substances and going into surgery is contributing to the problem.
I do virtual call center work and was having sm
trouble with people knocking and calling me interrupting my work. They were always asking for dumb things! (I'm single and this is our only income.)
The more time for homeschooling was a surprise!
We have been to the park more too. He is getting to bed by 8:30 (before it was Always after 10 no matter what I did) and I'm getting more sleep too.
Thank you for the help and advice. :)
SIL says she went through Wellspan Community Health Center. sm
any idea how to call them? i am not finding that exact name info. i did find roseann freundel as a DO student in WV but just pictured and an article. no contact info.
Actually a surgery center is acute care.
But surgery is surgery. Clinic work is not transcribing anything too invasive other than a Botox injection if you're lucky. I would think about that rate for transcribing surgeries. 8.5 is low.
I thought so. There is an MT company in Maine using it also. nm

Any one know of Casco Bay Transcription in Maine?
I would like to hear from anyone who works for this company. Do they pay decent? Are they good to work for? Thank you.
She's pretty - like a Maine Coon? (sm)
I bet she gets into all sorts of hilarious mischief. I like watching cats on Funniest Home Videos. Just saw the one where the toddler was gently poking at the cat who was sitting in a chair. She suddenly had enough, so she stood on her back feet and whopped his head repeatedly with those lightening fast paws. Kid didn't know what happened, just looked at the camera like, What the ??
Love it! It gets dark in Maine in Dec. by 4 p.m.
I hate standard time though. They can leave it as it is now and eliminate going back to standard time in the fall as far as I'm concerned. The clocks always go back right before Halloween too so the little ghosts and goblins have to trick or treat in the dark.
It does mess things up a bit changing over though. Last night my kids were all hungry and I said, "Oh for goodness sakes it's only . . . .. ALMOST SEVEN??"
Oops. . . . "hello, Dominos?" :)
Ayuh and if you don't like the weathah in Maine. . . .
wait a minute, it'll change.
We went to Maine a couple of years ago and it
was a MAJOR disappointment. It was nothing at all like you see on TV. We were in southern ME and people didn't keep up their yards, no one had a single flower in their yard, although there were a couple of hanging baskets and people were not very friendly. Went to Portland and couldn't get out of there fast enough. Everyone we met was rude and the place was just so dirty looking.
never mind, found it - maine
not the one i worked for.
Insect bites, center water blister.
For an entire month maybe once or twice a week, I have been bitten by some unknown sneaky bug that leaves a center water blister and a huge red swollen area around the blister, maybe the size of a half dollar coin. I have been putting neosporin on it but would love to know what is biting me. I woke up this morning with 3 extra bites. I knew about the one on my wrist which has already started to blister. I am thinking of going to the doctor but don't want to look like a wacko going in for nothing. However, I absolutely hate insects and they seem to love me with the bites.
The itching seems to happen when I am in the backyard (lots of trees and bushes). So, might be getting bit there first then the bites get worse as time goes by. They leave scabby cicular scars. The skin looks healed but very dark.
Anyone else with this experience or should I just head to the doctor. Can't really afford it but tired of the bites and the scars they are leaving. Thanks.
Question inside about Renting from Rent-A Center. sm
What was your expeience? Is it very expensive? I was thinking about renting a laptop computer to use for work on vacation for a couple of weeks and not ready to invest in purchasing a new laptop yet. Can you rent things for about a month or do they require longer?
Thanks for any help you guys might give.');>![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/shake.gif")
Come to Maine in February, you'll cool off :)
However, it has been soooooo hot here for a month. I'm not just talking heat, we get 95 degrees with 86% humidity and even the kitchen floor is sticky under your feet. And that's with the AC on, choking in the background. The humidity makes everything sticky. 115 degrees of dry heat is like oven heat. 95 degrees of humid heat is like a sauna and you feel as if you're sucking in water when you breathe.
But February. . . .nice and cool. 20 below 2 weeks in a row. A good day might go up to 2 (that's degrees). In February we can't wait for the hot humid weather. In July we can't wait for snow, but not for February though, more like December when it's a nice 20 above.
