Yes, I did mean vertical. I have no problem with adding to my favorites list or moving/organizing them where I want them. It's that the list has, somehow, re-arranged itself into alpha order.

No hatefulness intended but
if you're looking for a no stress job in the MT field, I think you would be better off looking into another field.
I'm sorry - I really never intended to offend anyone by this .... SM
but we do live in a town of about 6000 people and they do live way out in the country. I think it was probably working fine and, yes, math was probably difficult all the way around, and who knew at the beginning that their mother was going to pass away. But I still think that this particular child would have benefited a lot by being around other children more than he has been, and probably scouts, YMCA, etc., would have been very good for him, but he wasn't exposed to anything like that. However, like the poster below suggested, he probably is very depressed at this point over the changes in his life.
By the way, your child sounds like he is really thriving on homeschooling, and obviously you have made a great choice for him. You sound like a wonderful mom. Thanks for posting!
These were intended to help pharmacists
be able to more clearly read prescriptions and list the intennded dosing more clearly on the patient's label. Because it has a clause that it is to be extended in any "electronically written form" (meaning computer-generated prescription bottle lables, somebody went psycho and decided it should apply in the transcription world.
It was specifically written to avoid confusion due to poor hand writing by physicians in patient charts so that pharmacists would clearly know what and how to dispense medication and so the patient's would take their medications as are intended.
Please take this as intended; as concern
Hair colorants can be quite toxic; you may want to research here. I have no affiliation with this site other than I wish to be an educated consumer and I am concerned about what I put in and on my body. Not trying to be preachy. Good luck to you.

Kinesis Maxim hands down (no pun intended;) is...sm
The best keyboard I've used during my entire 18 years as an MT. You can purchase it separate from the number pad (on right of regular keyboards) for around $130. I got mine off ebay about three wks ago for only $51.00 and it came with the separate keypad. Quite the deal!
The only thing I had to get used to was the stiffness of the keys. Although it is adjustable, it kind of reminds you of the heavy-duty "clicky-boards." Now I can flat out fly on this thing!
Good luck! I'm glad my mission for the perfect keyboard is over!

That's seems confusing,

NM confusing
I don't know about any of this. All this is so confusing. Just started looking here and am finding even trying to understand how to get into this to post a question very confusing, so think some people could be a little more patient and understanding.
Is confusing to me. SM
My hubby has this too and gets bonus in December, however, on the quarterly report for the 401K it shows employer match plus separate figure for profit sharing. So, I'm thinking the bonus is not the same as the profit sharing in his case.
Thanks, it is so confusing
and has plaqued me for many years and I have placed stickies about it in the past but can't seem to find them now in the mound of papers around my desk. I will try and keep this somewhere so I can find it!!!!
confusing
My interpretation was as I stated, just don't understand the fake resume etc. It seems though it was initiated by a US MT, but who knows there is always two sides. I just feel at this time with electronic records and our trarnscription there is nothing to protect MTs no matter where we work. A fair day's work deserves a fair day's pay for whomever.
Confusing
I never said everyone should live on what I make. I am comfortable and satisfied with how much I make. That is what the thread was talking about. To tell the truth, I don’t have to work but I still do because I love my work and it has been part of my life now for so many years. I read horror stories about people who retire and don’t live long after that and just like to make money, I guess. I was comfortable even BEFORE he and I married because years ago when I was divorced and raising my children did not let grass grow under me and worked as much as I needed to have what I wanted, nice vacations then too. I am satisfied, if youre not, then that is you.
I think you're confusing her with
Jennifer "pity poor little me" Aniston.

It is confusing. But it's the only way to actually judge how much you are...
getting paid for the exact same amount of work. As long as you work with the same big block of text, it works perfectly.
th is is confusing. Can you clarify what you mean,

your message is very confusing but
I would say to go with a computer based digital phone that has unlimited long distance, i.e. vonage, sage, time warner, etc.
You are confusing your terms.
Software is the computer interface that allows you to perform a certain task, in this case, FTP software allows your computer to connect to an FTP site. If you're looking for an FTP site that is secure, you will more than likely have to pay for it. You can try www.ftptogo.com, although it is not free, it is a good site.
Your wording is confusing.
An IC would DO work for a clinic not work at and you would not resign as you are not an employee - that is an employee term. I would simply tell them you are cutting back on the amount of work you can handle. You control the amount of work - not them if you are truly an IC.
The new upgrade was confusing to me and I just
figured out that it was set to send it to QA automatically. So annoying. There are a lot of things being corrected in my reports that I know are right too.
Hope this does not sound too confusing
It is an IP address inside of an IP address. Basically when working with a VPN, you connect to a server. Once these 2 computers are connected, then you are sent to the next IP address within the original IP address. While there, a VPN constantly changes the IP address to make it very hard to break into.
Hope this helps :)
Boy, you guys are confusing. Are you talking to me or to her?
HAHAH

Consistency is the key. It is confusing to them if you are inconsistent.

you are confusing RSI with carpal tunnel
I'm not having a problem with my wrists. It's all the tendons in my fingers. Funny thing, I posted the message after having gone to Best Buy and clickey-clacking through all their keyboards. They are all stiff too. I am looking for something that you can just barely touch the keys so my tendons aren't so strained.
The confusing part was that they acted as if
think they would be the very best themselves. I was so disappointed and upset by that experience that I felt apprehensive about the entire MT field after the mess was over. However, I did get a job and have been working for almost 4 years now in the field. I work for a small company. The owner tells me constantly how much she appreciates me and feels lucky to have me. --and I tell her the same thing! -and boy do I mean it. :)
I was not going to post anything about Toth, but the more I thought about it.... well, I also would not wany anyone to go through what I did.
your posts are confusing and vague, but--
I think what I am reading is that you have a computer now with only one plug in and that's for the monitor. You never specify if your pedal is a 9-pin, 15-pin, or USB. I can only assume that it is either a 9-pin or 15-pin, as somewhere in your posts, you stated that you DID have USB ports.
Ok, that being said, the pedal with the 9-pin or 15-pin needs what they call a *game port* in order to be plugged in. These *game ports* used to be on the sound card. *game ports* have pretty much become obsolete and opted for the USB ports as they are easy and simple. The lady below who said Google 9-pin to USB adaptor was correct. That is what you need. However, not all adaptors will work either, as the *pins* on the foot pedal are wired in such a way that one pin will make your left pedal work, another your right pedal work, etc. Alot of adaptors are not set up for that and still will not work. I had a 9-pin foot pedal as well, actually still do, packed away some where, which I never go to use as no adaptors would work. I purchased a USB pedal and will never get another 9-pin pedal again. These are *old* technology and pretty much obsolete now, as USB has taken over. You can try the adaptors, but don't get your hopes up. Some have luck with them, and some don't. If you go back to RS, write this down on a piece of paper... 9-pin to USB adaptor. and on a side note, the foot pedal will not work if you are looking for an adaptor for where the monitor plugs in. It is a totally different plug in. Radio Shack personnel are not up to speed on foot pedals and plug ins, trust me on that one. Most of them look at you like you're nuts anyway. Good luck!!!
Oh bullshit, that is such a lame excuse. The same lame excuse that has been
time someone doesn't agree with offshoring. Of course I have bills that need to be paid...EVERYONE DOES! And, guess what sweet cheeks, I have a job and it's with a company that doesn't offshore! Wah...wah...wah all you want, but this site does not support offshoring private health information and if you don't like it, run somewhere else because there are a lot of us here that DON'T agree with you! 
Aren't you people confusing SS with disability?
I was under the impression that there was no limit on income when your retire on SS. But, there is a limit if you are on SS disability. And I believe that amount is around $900. However, if you are on disability, they also count how many hours you work. If you are making $900 or less, but working more than part-time hours (something like more than 16-20 hours), that could still disqualify you for disability. So, I'm confused on this too. But back to the SS retirement discussion, I thought back in the Clinton Administration, they passed legislation that made it more profitable for retirees to work once they started receiving their SS retirement. I was glad to hear this as many retirees want to work and they shouldn't be penalized. After all, the income taxe and SS taxe and Medicare tax goes into the big government kitty, so working retirees benefit everyone. I'm a believer in keeping retirees busy and bringing in income if they so wish. Well, Doxie, I am on your side. You asked a simple question and why some are beating up on you is puzzling to me. You asked a legitimate question. But if you really need to keep it at $900 or less, just divide your line rate into $900, take that answer and divide by four, and that will be the amount of lines you want to stay under per week. -

Excuse you but --
I never said a degree or certification is required to become an MT, now did I?
I did say that a proper education IS required, and I stick by that; i.e., my analogy with the attorney/paralegal and nurse/MT, etc.
And she didn't prove me wrong either; she only proved how totally out of touch she is with this profession, and you proved that you like to try to put words in people's mouths! ROAR!
Excuse me???
uh, excuse a moi
>>>A drink (in moderation) every now and then, in my opinion, is better than being hooked on Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft, etc.
Not if you have a legitimate chemical imbalance and require any or all of these medications to give you a normal life. It's when you don't take them under doctor's orders that you can have problems.
its an 11 - excuse you.

Excuse me??
Hope you are never old and suffering from pneumonia.
please excuse
sorry about the typos, just got off an 8 hour shift and now cannot type.
no excuse
I have the same problem and most recently the office visit for my child to have his ear looked at and that is all was $129.00....new office visit fee. I'm still wondering how any MD can justify such a fee. If they see 4 15-minute appointments in 1 hour, just regular visits, that's $519 an hour. Someone's living good.
Excuse me
I hate it when people like you say something like that. If you don't want someone younger (and possibly better) to be over you, then apply for the position yourself. Some ego you seem to have. Age has nothing to do with true experience or ability.
excuse me...
It clearly states OUTSIDE the post that it is NOT MT related...so you shouldn't have read it if you weren't interested.
However, I believe that this is an open forum for MT issues, plus other things we would like to discuss. Take a scroll on down the board, there's lots of non-MT related topics being discussed.
If you have a problem with non-MT related topics, DON'T READ THEM...dang...
excuse me?
whatever.
well, excuse me...
but I was referring to speaking and putting forth the effort to properly pronounce words, which can be a critical mistake when not pronouncing someone's medications correctly...not the fact that I left off an *o* in too...geez, get the point...(guess this kind of reply is why I rarely post on this board)...
Excuse me
but....things happen in a person's life expected or unexpected. She says she works 95% of the time. It should not matter if she works at home as an IC or in-house. Things do happen like it or not. It is a fact of life and should not be penalized for such. Companies should have a backup plan. Computers fail, etc.
Excuse me?
What is with people on this board. Why do you all insist on getting nasty when someone states an opinion, a well-informed one no less. Why must you all be so derogatory just like this doctor.
Why did I have time yesterday? Because I had no jobs available. Our accounts' work load is down and has been down over the past month or so. You know nothing about me or my job.
I hope you are right about the DSM-V it's about time. How psychologists versus doctors treat psychiatric issues isn't the discussion here. And for a matter of fact, mental retardation is NOT a medical diagnosis. It is an IQ less than a certain number depending on severity. What medical doctor gives an IQ test?
And shame on me for what? For taking a stand against ignorant people including doctors who insist on using derogatory terms?
EXCUSE ME
Well excuuuse me - I "thought" this was a free country. You're obviously one who doesn't care that so much of the work in the US is being shipped to other countries. Perhaps you have all the job security you need, perhaps your husband hasn't been laid off because his place of employment went to Mexico. I need a job that pays a decent wage and a wage that we deserve for the work we do. I have a right to my opinion and a right to voice it - and I fully intend to keep on doing it despite of your lousy attitude !
Excuse me, but we all do NOT sm
do that and if you think that's the case you're so very wrong. I can assure you though, your employer is aware of who is doing the cherrypicking and who isn't. There's no reason for it and as another poster pointed out, the quickest way to lose respect.
Excuse me. ....
I am tired of these types of posts. Those of us who ARE excellent MTs are making the money. We're doing just fine.
If you cannot make a living in MT, then it is more than likely you. If you aren't good at this work you won't make any money. You'll just blunder along making minimum wage at best.
No excuse ME...sm
Let me tell you something...You shouldn't judge MTs you don't even know, and you certainly don't judge me. Just because you ARE making good money does not give you the right to say those who haven't found a good job yet for whatever reason are not good MTs. How do you know? Have you reviewed my work or anyone else's on this board? I don't think so. You are doing fine because you have a good job with a good company obviously. Everyone is not that lucky. You have nerve let me tell ya! Don't make judgements about people or things you don't know about, and you most definitely do not judge me.
Excuse me?
I do NOT pretend to be happy at my job... I AM happy at my job and lucky to have it. Someday when everything goes to voice recognition, you'll be sorry. The fact that you feel so miserable at your job is your own opinion. This is not the place to point fingers at any individual. Speak for yourself.
Excuse Me?
How do you think you know me by my posts? You know nothing about the type of QA person that I am, but I would wager a bet that I am a FAR better QA than you are an MT.
